| - This is a fast food burger joint. Not as fast as McDonald's. On the other hand, they are so much better it's not even a contest. For what it is, this place is probably the best I've had. This is NOT the Cordon Bleu, and I'm writing this opinion with that in mind!
Their burgers are prepared fresh (no heat lamps!), and they taste fresh. Even if you get a McD burger hot off the griddle it tastes like something that wouldn't spoil if you let it sit out for a year. Fatburger's burgers are hot, tasty, and seem very fresh. Made with real ground beef (it even crumbles a bit as ground beef is prone to doing...don't ever remember McD's doing that).
The curly fries are really nice. A light crunch, very tasty. Also fresh and hot. And the shakes are pretty good too. Not the best shakes, but pretty good.
The ambiance is supposed to be sort of 50's diner. Complete with a juke box (that looks like it's from the 70s...ooops). As they were established in 1952, according to their signs, I guess they are trying to stay in touch with that...at least a little.
If I have a craving for a burger and fries, this would be my first or second choice of places to go. A tad pricey, perhaps, but you can order various size burgers from 5 oz up to 24oz. Did I mention they're really tasty?
