| - I came here because of rave reviews from my brother, but ultimately I left somewhat disappointed. I was thinking this was going to be cross between fast food and gourmet burgers, but I was kinda hoping it was going to err a bit more to the side of gourmet than fast food.
It IS fast food, albeit slightly more healthy because of some options that one might find only at a more gourmet place. But ultimately, it falls short for me. It has more options than In and Out, but fewer options than Carl's Jr. They do not offer a Turkey patty, which I would have greatly appreciated. They do have a chicken sandwich and some salads, but I came for a burger, not a sandwich or salad. They have a veggie burger which comes on a wheat bun with cucumbers and sprouts and some sort of honey mustard stuff and avocado is an option. But the patty is just Morningstar Farms/Garden burger thing that although being cooked well just didnt give me any sort of wow factor.
I ordered regular fries, though I could have ordered sweet potato fries or onion rings, which were cooked nicely but were completely unsalted. They spent a little time on presentation with a lettuce leaf and an orange slice which looked pretty but seemed pointless.
Im not saying it was bad by any means, just not what I was looking for, and frankly Id rather go to Carl's Jr. if Im in the mood for this kind of burger. They're faster, they have more options that include turkey burgers, and they're a bit more upfront about just how gourmet they really are.
