No doubt. It certainly was better than those. For the price range, it's in my top five - Whataburger, Blake's Lottaburger (Albuquerque, NM area), The Big Bun (Boise, ID - not sure if it still exists), and Arctic Circle (small chain in the intermountain northwest) - round that out. In the next price tier, it would be Big Judd's (Boise, ID), Twisters Grill (Albuquerque area), and Five Guys. Big Judd's is my overall favorite.
My very first real job was at an Arctic Circle in Grand Junction, Colorado.
