walrusman posted:Shake Shack > Five Guys > Burgerville > Whataburger >> In-n-Out Burgerville is better than Five Guys you son of a bitch. Sorry about contributing to fast food chat, but on topic the Sears at Washington Square Mall is the nicest, cleanest Sears I have ever been in, and even then it's completely loving barren except for people passing through to get to the rest of the mall (which isn't dying). Like it's loving crazy, I never see people just casually browsing there. What about Sears, even a nice, well-stocked version, is completely repellent to consumers?

shadowvine118 posted:The area I live is pretty boring when it comes to burger joints. The only place we have that has been mentioned on this thread, that I know of, is Five Guys, and that place is overrated, IMO. The best burger joints tend to be the non-franchise hole-in-the-wall places. Grindhouse Burgers in ATL was my personal fav.

CVS is apparently doing well enough to buy my insurer, which is just hot nonsense. Their brand news stores somehow look like they haven't been updated since the 90s. And the smell. Why do they always smell?

Choco1980 posted:I strongly suspect this one non buffet chinese place is a front like that. I've never, EVER seen a dine-in customer, nor have I ever seen anyone working the front of the restaurant that was over 12 years old. But drat, they have the best tasting Chinese food in the county, so I keep going to them. They creep me out, but they're worth it. Keep in mind that there's a stealth chain of Chinese non-buffet restaurants out there. I've seen it several times over the years under several different names, but they all have the same menu, and the food is all the same. They all operate out of rundown storefronts in strip malls, with a couple of tables in them and you rarely see customers inside, and they're always waiting for their take out. The weird thing is they almost always look like they sprang up in 1992 and haven't been updated since, jade printed laminate is warping on the counter, some odd goldfish in a dirty tank, backlit pictures of dishes that are discolored from decades of UV exposure, strong Chinese imagery on the walls, and threadbare carpet.

I finally got around to In-n-out recently and I was very disappointed. Mayo is by default and everything was so profoundly mediocre. Five Guys still the best. Gotta try Whataburger next

FlamingLiberal posted:Shake Shack is actually good though It's good and I know it's good quality too. The burgers are just small compared to their price. Like 5 Guys price for a burger the size of a McDonald's single cheeseburger. However, they have some of the best cheese fries I've ever had. They haven't had it in awhile but their Shackmeister burger with shallots was pretty good too. Also, when you get a drink refill there, they throw out your cup and give you a new one. Which to me says they don't need to watch every penny. vyst posted:Shake shack is overrated I don't know about other places, but in DC they tend to be tourist destinations. So I feel like perception of it is tinted by that.

I have to say that I really like those urgent care places (around here many are "CityMD" and "Westmed"s, though there are others) even though their success is basically an indictment of how bad the healthcare system is.

I'll meet any of you assholes and fight you IRL for debasing In-N-Out. I live on the East Coast and In-N-Out is the only reason to go west of the Mississippi. I'll fight you animal style, dammit.

In-N-Out is a quality burger, but the cult-like fervor surrounding it overhypes it. They're nothing special. Five Guys is overpriced but they beat In-N-Out by a large margin.

tactlessbastard posted:You cross the Mississippi and you're still a long goddamned way from an in n out Yeah, I have no idea where they are. They're just very occasionally in the same city I am in. The closest I can get to that kind of burger is Steak N'Shake. And 5 Guys is only tolerable because of the fries and the fact you don't have to hang around people with peanut allergies. As a burger it's a soggy pile of meat and bread.

To this thread's credit, Shake Shack did report a decrease in "same-shack sales" from 2016 to 2017. I would not be surprised to see the trend get worse over the next few years as the company continues to expand. Why make a special effort to visit Shake Shack on your vacation in New York or Florida when you could visit one back home any time you want?

I'm pretty sure Cook Out has an inter-dimensional portal to a land of cheap beef and pork because I can't figure out how you can get a hamburger, fries, drink, and a corn dog for $5.
