Agree about the Five Guys fries.

I don't eat meat, but I stopped there because I was in a town where everything else was BBQ shacks and I had read several rave reviews about FG fries.

Yuck!!!! and it's a good thing they had some outdoor seating.

If it's after 9pm and I haven't had dinner yet, or I'm driving on I80 thru PA, then Wendy's comes into play.
"Mortons/Ruth Chris steakhouse"

Absolutely!

Bobby Flay's Burger Palace.

http://www.uwishunu.com/wp-content/u...omp1-500uw.jpg

Franchise owned and run by celebrity chef Bobby Flay.

Top notch burgers, the best imo. Not too greasy, not dry, great variety.

The sweet potato fries and beer battered onion rings are awesome.

The milk shake is also amazing, creamy and thick not watered down.

Prices just a bit more than Wendy's but top notch food and table side service.

They are overpriced.
I hate their fries. I like Mc'donald type fries. Smaller ones. Their big fat fries are awful IMO.
I hate the ambiance. It has to be the worst of all franchises. The seats are right on top of each other. You can hear anyone's conversation, and they can hear yours. I hate all the yelling about orders that they do. Very loud and very annoying. I've been there twice and I would not go back. Very over-rated in my opinion.
oh and talking about the seats: I don't know about all the Five Guys, but the one near us has really low seats, so it is hard for us oldsters to get up and down.

Five guy burgers are ok, they're just too plain. I like my burger on a grill not on a griddle and they have to cook well done and because they also squirt water to keep it moist their burger doesn't taste very good which is why they give you tons of condiments. Their meat is decent quality it's just not seared to retain the juices.

Mc Cormick and Scmicks seems a bit above the average chain. I like their happy hour menu, Creative and tasty.

It's a toss-up between Claim Jumper and Lazy Dog Cafe.
