Burger king has some splainin to do. How can they afford this? Are they still using real meat?
I swear I've seen some commercials for their deals while watching NBA games and I just don't understand how they can afford it.

Looks like they make people sign up for an account to redeem the deal and they have it at $3 in some markets. Fine print says “One per guest”. Understandable they couldn’t make this a regular promotion, unlike Costco, where they still have their $1.50 hot dog/drink and $4.99 rotisserie chickens after all of these years.

I'll put them in alphabetical order to avoid bias.

Rank 'em:

Buffalo Wild Wings, Cheesecake Factory, Chili's, Olive Garden, Outback, Red Robin, Red Lobster, TGIFridays

People hate on Chili's, but I love it. Can't beat an appetizer, 2 margaritas, 2 entrees, and dessert for $35. Is the food amazing? No, but it's pretty damn solid, and with a deal like that you can't go wrong.

I've never had Tommy's.
But if price isn't being considered. That's the right order.

Five Guys is the only one of those here. We had Habit here but they closed all three Orlando locations about a year ago. But I’m originally from California so I’ve had my fair share of In-n-out. We do have a ton of other burger chain places around here though. BurgerFi, Burger 21, Smashburger, Shake Shack, Beth’s Burger Bar, Twisted Root Burger. It’s kind of crazy how many burger places there are.

Tough to think of a more ridiculously overpriced place. Del Taco fries, a fast food burger and a drink for 10 bucks.
Price to quality ratio there is atrocious IMO.

Nice list VLF.. even though In-n-out is more known in terms of popularity, Habit makes awesome burgers.

Yep. If you can't enjoy a fry without any kind of sauce or catch up, that fry is crap and should be avoided, even with the dressings you need to put on it to make it palatable.

Don’t seem comparable. Granted I’ve only been to Slaters once but it seemed a cut above Red Robin. Do love me some Red Robin tho - lots of good memories, including being there for fishers .4 and seeing the place damn near blow the roof off. And yummy milkshakes - real OGs always go for the tin can goodness first, am I right

How do you even get In ‘N Out if you live in Washington?

In No Out is better than most sit down restaurant burgers in my opinion .

I used to do a fair amount of business in California, and I can’t count the number of times people wanted to go to lunch at in n out and show the out of town guy the best burger ever. Turns out it’s a pretty standard griddle burger (and I admit my bias toward grilled, but I still appreciate a good griddled burger) that you can get in countless mom and pop shops, but their greasy hideous attempt at French fries is truly horrific. Yeah yeah I know the beef is fresh and local, and you can order off menu, but there is truly nothing special about what they make. It’s a cult.

I like In N Out just fine, especially Animal Style. But's hands down the most overrated burger out there, and comments like that demonstrate that.
