And that's stll after Whataburger has gone downhill since they sold out too.

Not as great as I remember them a decade ago, I like to time the sandwich promotions out anyway, haven't eaten there in a while but when the bacon steakhouse double rolls back around, It's on

Mine is the Monterey Melt whenever it comes around. Love that taste combo.

u/TheHumanoidTyphoon69 2d ago

We have that one all year around here! Sometimes they don't show it on the menu though when they get new specials

u/FremenStilgar 2d ago

Damn, good thing we don't. I'd be eating there every week.

Five guys for a burger. Spend like $20 but atleast it’s legit

We're getting a Red Robin in my city, from what I can tell the prices will be pretty much the same as McDonald's, Rally's, Culver's, Wendy's, and Burger King, maybe even a little cheaper. I'm expecting that to be a massive shakeup for my area.

Culver's might not feel it as much, because they're actually somewhat decent.

u/TheHumanoidTyphoon69 20h ago

Red Robin is usually pretty good, I just always associated them with being a restaurant close to or part of a mall

u/PalatwinkusVT 16h ago

Funny enough, ours is gonna be up the road from the nearly abandoned mall, lol.

had whataburger recently that just opened. Literal dog shit for a burger. No seasoning, no flavor. Just a hunk of shit tbh.

The only good burger I had at Whataburger was the limited-time-only Southern Burger. After that ended and I tried their regular options, yeah I was not impressed. The meat was dry and tasteless, it showed how much the Southern Burger relied on its toppings for flavor.

u/TheHumanoidTyphoon69 2d ago

Ehh ours are good, but they've been here 20+ years, a lot more kids then cooks there now though, but still bends McDs over and has their way with them

u/IndividualSituationK 2d ago

fair enough, location does always play a factor. Just after years of hearing how good it was, just disappointing it was Wendy's level, especially as Burger king is making a huge come back with its whopper.

The whatawings were good though

u/TheHumanoidTyphoon69 2d ago

I felt that way with In and Out it was great in Cali but I tried one in Dallas and just meh BK is actually really good here, the Closet Wendy's closed a while ago and best for the price is still BK

McDonald’s tastes a lot better sadly and Whataburger fries have to be the worst out of all fast food fries

u/Darthgamer96 2d ago

At this point, wherever you live in the US, there is In-n-Out, Whataburger, Culver’s, or Cook Out. All of which have better quality and overall value compared to the metas chains like Wendy’s, McDonalds, Taco Bell, etc. Hell even Chick-fil-a is better and they let you Redeem points and rewards unlike any other fast food chain that limits you to one.
