It's a solid burger but a burger, fries and a drink is like $15 which puts it on par from a cost standpoint with a lot of dine in restaurants.

Overrated goes to in-and-out

Overpriced goes to shake shack. While pretty damn good, prices are quite high.

I don’t think it’s overrated. I think it’s a top notch fast food burger. I think it’s overpriced.

This is the answer. Burger is really good, fries are fantastic but $17 (last time
I was there - maybe 3 weeks ago) is absurd.

That’s getting up there with a 3 meat BBQ plate with 2 sides. Way more food than an expensive burger.

It definitely gets cheaper with more burgers since you still only need 1 order of fries

Good quality burger, house made, hand cut fries, not overrated

It's ok, I hate the thin patties they use. I like their fries, they're real good doused in malt vinegar.

Taste is fine. Seems strange knowing the name of the guy who dug my potatoes and not the name of the cow who provided the beef. They do seem to be a quite expensive way to eat a burger and more fires than anyone should eat.

Yes!!

I have had them twice and they sucked both times. I will stick with Whataburger which is right beside them for a better burger for half the price.

I had five guys once and it was horrible. A massive bland greasy mess. Idk if it was a fluke thing but I haven’t been back since.

In-n-Out is another. I had it twice on a trip to Las Vegas. The first time it was incredible but was probably due to the fact that I had eaten around 7 am before the trip and didn’t eat again until what seem like 1 or 2 the next morning.

The 2nd time is tasted like cheap old frozen food.

It is flavorless. Quite a disappointment. Haven't been back since about 2010.
