| - There are a lot of life mysteries we question everyday. Are we alone in the universe? Does Bigfoot really exist? Is In-N-Out Burger actually that good? Well we may not have the answers to some of these conundrums for a while (unless you've recently been abducted by aliens), but I was able to find a conclusion to that last one.
So maybe I was late to the proverbial party, but I hadn't had the opportunity to try In-N-Out for the first time until I ended up in Nevada back in September. The trek to this spot from Las Vegas Blvd is not as straightforward as one might hope, but I do pray someone reads this review and learns it is walkable, I promise!
Once there, you'll start to get this feeling like you're entering into a genuine food experience. I mean the place isn't spectacularly designed, but between the retro logo and little palm trees across the counter, you get this subtle Californian vibe you didn't know you wanted and you're glad you got.
The line was several people deep, but In-N-Out is a well-oiled machine and lives up to its name with the way it takes orders, calls out numbers, and keeps people moving. Plus, you can't really spend a while choosing because the menu is basic. Burger, Cheeseburger, Double Double (you can figure that one out), fries, and shakes.
Okay, I'm no food novice. There's a little more to that menu than meets the eye, and I wasn't about to miss out on it. Animal style fries? Check. Neapolitan shake? Check. Throw in a Double Double and we're good....well, maybe I let my eyes do the talking because I also added a hamburger to that order (more on its unfortunate demise in a sec).
Verdict? Really good. Aesthetically, the Double Double was beautiful and it stayed together nicely through each juicy, meaty bite. The flavors blended perfectly and created a fast food burger above the caliber of most others. Beyond that staple, I did enjoy my beastly fries, though they fell a tad short of my expectations. I mean cheese, grilled onions, and their secret spread still tasted great on top of it all so don't shy away from this secret selection. The shake rounded things out nicely with its trio of flavors.
Overall, I'm glad to have an answer to that edible life question: In-N-Out Burger is good. I'd say it's even great. Amazing? Maybe not, but I do wish my stomach was big enough to have eaten that extra burger. He met an untimely end in a garbage can along The Strip because I just couldn't eat anymore. Looking back, I wish I did because I'm craving some more In-N-Out and I'll be waiting til my next opportunity to continue to fulfill that food fantasy.
