> [@9c1](#): > > I had a burger from Grover’s last night. I doubt many burgers can be better than that. So good. Different type of restaurant IMO, grovers is more of a sit down burger joint where 5 Guys is more of a fast foody type. So it probably can’t compete with Grover’s but it is a great meal nonetheless. ---

I went to Grovers once. I feel no desire to go back. Maybe I just wasn’t in the mood but I didn’t think it was that great, and the wife thought it was disgusting. Big + grease doesn’t necessarily equal good. I’ve heard that their patties are so big/lean that they’d fall apart if they just fried them so they actually drop them in a deep fryer. :gotme: Vizzies on the other hand. Do want. ---

The fries are great. They have a sign in front telling you what part of Idaho they came from that day. Burgers are good so are the hot dogs, and all the toppings are free!! ---

Im not big on sonic the burgers arent much better than wendys I do enjoy having tater tots though… Their big deal for me are the drinks. They have some kick ass shakes and cold drinks. ---
