very california. ...and for all the wrong reasons. dubstep (which i hate) being played too loud, overpriced and over-embellished food that ends up terrible as a result.
everything was just plain bad. meat was oh-so-bland (true waste of angus) and five guys can cook a well done burger juicier than their medium. kimchi added no excitement, other toppings were mediocre--mealy tomato and avocado that was too soft. then the buns--wait, who in doge's name ever thought it was a good idea to have yeast roll buns? sickeningly sweet is not what i want with a burger. more california influence there, assuredly. fries ranked among the worst i have had--the oil used to cook them had that not-changed-often-enough aftertaste to it. did i mention overpriced? way overpriced.
i am honestly not that biased against small or local chains, but each and every single one i have had here so far after the move has been detestable. will be on truly small business for at least a month (or until i am forced).
