I've tried pretty every burger place there is. Ive lived all over. I'll give my top 5, not considering price.
1. Five guys. The burgers are simply the best. And I know they use good ingredients and have good standards because I worked there for a few years.
2. In and out. I wish they national, but mainly out West. Thats only knock on them.
3. Culver's. Wasnt on the list but should be. Great all around burger. Their cheese curds and pretzel bites are also pretty good. Hell so are their onion rings. Only thing subpar in my opinion is their fries
4. Shake and Steak. They've been good for a long time, and both their burgers and shakes are actually good. Plus with them now using beef tallow for their fries, they're easily top 5/
5. Burger King. I will say this is only if you have a good location nearby. When it's good, they're burgers are pretty solid. Good size, good flavor. Burgers are without question better than McDonalds. Though with fries it could go either way.
Everyone else from wendy's to McDonalds, BurgerFi, whataburger, etc are either forgettable or down right bad.
