Gotta go with In'N'Out. Been all over this great nation, and never had better.

On topic, the only burger i have ever 'craved' was a McD's QP with cheese. Single, hold the onions. It's definately not the best burger I've ever had though. We got a Red Robin not too long ago, and I finally made it there. Awesome burgers, and all you can eat fries that ROCK. I'd have to vote for that place as best.

Elevation Burger is good, but I'm not sure it's worth the hype. Free range, grass fed, organic beef. Oh, and they make the fries in front of you. You hear the *clump* of the russet potatoes going through the wall mounted cutter each time they make a new batch of fries.

You can buy anything you want there as long as it's burgers and fries.

Might be a while before I get to try an In 'n Out. I don't get to the southwest that often.

We've been to Red Robin and didn't care for it. The medium-rare burger was practically raw. The medium was tough and dry.

Mc D guarantees proximity and mediocrity. They're everywhere and they're not bad.

McD is very consistent - thats their appeal. No matter which one you go to its the same shit. You know what you are gonna get.

The only fast food burger I eat is Wendy's, and that's not because they taste good - it's because Wendy's employees seem to complain about having to clean all the time and throw out old food. Of restaurants burgers, I would have to give a vote to Texas Land & Cattle.

People around here swear by Swenson's. I think it's absolute shit and I can do better on my own grill.

I vote for Fuddrucker's Ostrich burger. YUM!

Their onion rings (instead of fries) are really good too.

Generic drinks, though. I'm waiting for a signature drink to come along, like Arby's and Famous Dave's.
