It’s been years since I was in Texas so it must be from the place in chicago that took over has F-ed them up. 🙁

That’s very disappointing...

I like In-N-Out because I consider it a bit better than the other fast food place at a similar price point. At the same time, I’m not one of those fans who’ll sit in the drive-thru for 45 minutes for their food. If the drive-thru line is too long and/or it’s too crowded inside, then I don’t really consider it “fast” food and will go elsewhere. Conversely, I know a few people who absolutely hate In-N-Out, and, to a person, their gripe is the same: they hate the fries. Personally, I really like their fresh-cut fries, but I can appreciate the fact that they’re a significantly different sort of fry than the standard frozen fries of McDonald’s, Burger King, Carl’s Jr., Jack in the Box, etc. And some folks just prefer the latter.

Ive had good experiences with all of the 5 guys diners that Ive been too. good fresh fries- no grease, and tasty burgers.

Same experience with Whataburger.

You must have eaten at a counterfeit 5 guys location.

Now theres a local place called hometown hamburgers. Very greasy burgers and so-so fries just like you describe.

5 Guys burgers used to be better - suspect they have reduced the quality of the meat to cut costs. Used to be very good, now just OK, but always pricey. Our local 5 Guys makes the best fries in the world, and 1 regular order is plenty for 2 people. I often get a hot dog instead of the burger, but go mainly for the fries.
