After about 10 minutes sitting in my car waiting to enter the drive-thru line, an employee walked by telling us that the wait for the drive-thru window was approximately three hours!

Unfortunately, I didn't have all afternoon to spend waiting in line. I guess I'll try again this weekend.

Wow. I may be waiting two months! I am amazed that so many are willing to wait for 2-3 hours.

It's looking really nasty here in 75206 (75/Mockingbird). Not raining hard yet but it should be any second now.

It had been a few years since I tasted In-N-Out and as I was eating my Double Double I noticed....that something was off.

The meat patties were razor thin and overcooked, IMO. Thinner than a McDonald's hamburger - about the thickness of a White Castle meat patty. I kept thinking to myself, "Was there always such little meat on an In-N-Out burger?"

I had another regular hamburger with the same small patty. I couldn't even taste any meat - it was like a veggie burger with Thousand Island dressing.

This was not the same burger that I remembered. Not only were the burgers not outstanding, they weren't even good.

I'll give them another chance when they open up the Dallas store, but this was a head scratch-er for me. I think a lot of people who will be trying them for the first time will be very disappointed.

Its disturbing to hear your review and reminds me of the last time I had In n Out. It was in Los Angeles back in March. I noticed the same thing about the paper thin meat patty and found it to be very odd.

I could be wrong, but if I think way back to the 80s or 90s, the In n Out meat patty was a quarter pound. So a regular burger would be a quarter pound and a Double-Double would be a half pound.

Like I said, I could be wrong but if Im right then its very disturbing to think they have changed this one very important specification in their formula.

Coworkers say "thank you."

You can see it from the service road.

Wait a minute. I've never had one, but your statement is confusing. You're a fan of the In & Out burger, but say it is OVER-RATED compared to a $5.00 or $6.00 Burger? Geez, just about ANY burger costs around that much. So essentially, you're saying it IS over-rated? I'm puzzled. So a $6 in&out burger is as good as a $2 burger? I wouldn't call that very much of an endorsement.

Signed,
Confused as hell

Thanks...I'm sure when it opens all they have to do is follow the crowds!
