      They were growing. Think Chipotle but burgers. But $15 for a burger. No thank you.

        Holy fuck, if I want to pay $15 for a burger, I have a number of places around my city I can get a great one, and none of them are a fast food joint.

          Fine Fat Burger was the Qdoba of burgers.

            How is Qdoba not bankrupt? They are always like a worse version of the other Mexican food chains in the area.

      Fatburger is a California based fast-ish food chain. They are better than McDonalds but also more expensive and slower and not any nicer to eat/order at. Their burgers are configurable with a lot of options, but in the end you end up paying restaurant prices for a burger that isn’t as good and isn’t much faster.

        If you were already in California would you not just go to in-and-out?

      Mediocre burger that ends up costing $16 when you get a fry and drink. There are sit down burger restaurants not charging as much, that are much better. TBH a Philly cheesesteak from Jersey Mike’s is better and cheaper.

        Jersey Mike’s is owned by the worst kind of people. Don’t give them your money

      I’m Commander Shepard and this is my favourite casual-dining shop on the Citadel.

        Identity theft is my least favorite crime on the Citadel.
