| - I'm telling you, being from NY is a complete disadvantage when it comes to food in Arizona. Nothing, I mean NOTHING tastes as good as it does in NY! Anyway, it would appear that Checker's/Rally's is one of those "don't know what you got 'till it's gone" type of places. I always took Checker's for granted when I lived in NY and then one day in Arizona I was craving their fries and to my surprise, the only one relatively close to me was a Rally's and it was almost 45 minutes away! I mean I like their fries but I didn't 45 minute drive like them. Well, believe it or not, my husband and I had been trying to eat out less and it really only took about two weeks of home cooked meals for our bodies to adjust, I'm guessing, because this food had our stomachs twisted. Like, instant regret twisted and the food wasn't even that good!
We came here sometime last week after having ran some errands. We hadn't eaten lunch and decided to treat ourselves to fast food since we had been doing so good (lol, counterproductive but whatever). This Rally's is in the hood, y'all. I'm not bougie by any means and I know the hood has some of the best food but this area was seedy af. We ordered a checker burger with cheese meal, a funnel cake, and a 2 for $3 fry burger and fish sandwich. I didn't even make it half way through my fish sandwich because it was so dry but that's probably my fault for not asking for extra tartar sauce. The fries were just okay and that's weird because their fries are usually so bangin'! This is just one of those "better on the east coast" places I guess. We ordered a large and medium fry and we left most of them completely uneaten. The food was so underwhelming. As we drove home though, we started to feel it. We just felt bloated and tired and horrible, it was not worth it. I'm glad I came here to try it out since I had been craving Checker's since I moved and completely forgot to go on my trip back home but we won't be back to this location which is the only one relatively close to where we live. We'll wait until we get back to NY.
