| - It's a rare experience when I go to a fast food restaurant. I'm not "anti-fast food", I just personally don't think most of it tastes that good. That being said, I usually really do enjoy a Carl's Jr burger. When judging a place like Carl's Jr, it's all about expectations.
The burger at Carl's is char-broiled, differentiating them from many fast food restaurants. Their meat patties are usually slightly bigger than most places, and the burgers usually have crisp and fresh lettuce/onion, and fresh tomato. The sauces are simple, but effective. For example, the Famous/Super star is my favorite burger on the menu due to the white sauce they use. It is like a slightly tangy/acidic mayonnaise. This sauce is boring by itself, but when combined with the other ingredients on the burger it actually has very good flavor.
The reason I give two stars is because I think this particular Carl's is not that good. I live a stone's throw from this restaurant, and usually do not get the level of quality I will find at a Southern California Carl's. The inconsistency is what makes me bring this place down to a two stars. Consistency is even more important when it comes to fast food.
The positives is that it's open 24 hours, and the inside of the restaurant is clean.
