So, let's get this thread started! Here are a few of mine, in no particular order:
- Sonics
- Rally's (On a GOOD day!)
- Fatburger
- Wendy's
- In & Out
- Pink's (Imagine that?)
Anybody ever been to Big Mike's in Bellflower? I heard they make one of the biggest burgers around.
|
UPDATE: Anybody got any to add? I'm sure someone found some places in the past 2 years.

Famous Hamburger in the city of Bell.
Check this joint out. Seriously, they sell the best "fast food" hamburger. This place blows In-N-Out out of the water. Their patties are so big and fresh.
Try their Inferno Burger (my personal favorite) if you are man enough.  |

You kind of have to be in the area to go anywhere, don't you?

Hell naw. You mean to tell me the only places you eat are "in the area you happen to be in at that time"?

Tried 8oz over the weekend. It was good but not great. I sampled their triple prime beef, wild boar and lamb sliders that each came with paired beers. I still prefer Father's Office and Golden State. I really want to try Unami Burger next.

I ordered the bacon cheeseburger and regular fries, and my chick ordered a little hamburger, we each got a regular drink = $16.20.

That's cheaper then I would pay....
I love Five Guys, but is a once every three months type of thing...
I do wish there was a smaller size fry you can get; I always end of throwing more than half out, they give you way too much... |

Just messin' with you. I meant you actually have to be in the area to go somewhere, unless of course you can teleport.

 And that's exactly what my girl did. The bottom of the bag was filled with fries and she was like "Ok, dude...this is WAY too much fry action" and she dumped 'em.

Costo has a frozen burger - the sirloin...that (bleep) literally melts in your mouth. Great flavor, too. No need to even season it with anything.

And you can get the giant hot dog as a bonus when you go to buy the burgers!

JNJ Burgers on Fairfax and Adams. De-damn-licious. Big ass burgers and the BBQ is off the hook as well.
