Last time I heard lots of hype about a burger joint, it was for In-N-Out Burger in CA. I was skeptical, but learned that the hype was justified.
I've seen the long lines and I've heard the local hype, so I expected a great greasy experience when I decided try Dick's for the first time. Naturally, I expected something on par with In-N-Out.
It was fast. Probably the fastest burger I've ever had. The shake was really good.
However, I was fully disappointed by the burger. I suppose I've been spoiled by In-N-Out, where every ingredient is super fresh, and moderately customizable.
At Dick's, you take what you're given. 3 options for burgers. No tomatoes on mayo. No Deluxe without mayo. The ingredients are moderately fresh, but not crisp. The meat is your typical low-quality meat found anywhere. Overall an OK burger - nothing to get excited about though.
