What say ye?

The Shake Shack on 23rd St, back in the day was really good.
Recently I went to one in NJ was not impressed.

Out of all those, only had 5 Guys, and it's been years since I've had it. ! It's ok. Can't speak for the rest.

I have a Five Guys when ever I go to my local HomeDepot. It's right next door.

The regular with 2 patties is a bit much for me, I order the Jr and it tastes so much better than the Reg.

The fries though...they seem to be getting soggier and soggier every time I order them, and the malt vinegar tastes good but doesn't help with the sogginess. :)

Last time I picked up takeout at Raimo's Tratorria (sic), the Five Guys in Amityville was closed. China virus ?

Correction - it was their parent company:

However - they do seem to be liquidating some stores - mostly California it seems.

We got one of those here in NJ. It's been awhile since I've been but it was always good.

In n out is the best. Second is Five Guys. Shake Shack a close third. Would be second except I’m always still hungry when I leave and it’s the most expensive.

Five napkins was really good and liked al the other offering as well.

Some of these places have just as good burgers but not as good other selections being offered.

As for faster food Options with Burgers I’m

Was not impressed with In & Out in Southern California when we were out there in 2015 or 2016. It was like a chain store All American in Matzohpizza but not quite as inexpensive and longer wait.
