🇬🇧BRIT Reacts To THE BEST RESTAURANT IN EVERY US STATE!

[@robertschwartz4810]

Remember what she said at the start. These are the best CHAINS. Chain restaurants can be good, but the privately owned restaurants are usually the best. I live in a renowned restaurant city and there are wonderful places with great food for from under $20.00 to hundreds of dollars depending on what you're looking for.

So checking in again from Pittsburgh. We have something called a perogie. It's a traditional polish food. Pasta stuffed with mashed potatoes and other fillings. So of course we have a perogi pizza. And when made correctly has a large amount of mashed potatoes on it. It is sooooo good. Give it a shot. Potato rant over.

Tried both a number of times. They're both a bit of a "local hero". In n out is a good quality burger for a decent price. Their key is they keep the quality and consistency really tight across the entire chain. They're famous though because of their "not so secret" menu. Everyone loves to be "in the know". Wattaburger is a pretty good burger if you get a good store. Unfortunately They're really inconsistent. They're decent, large size burgers. Fairly plain though.

Portillo's is a popular chain in the Chicago area and Northern Illinois. They specialize in Italian beef, which is mostly an Illinois thing to begin with.

Gonna back up the Chili and Cinnamon Rolls. Sweet and Spicy/Savory is a fantastic combination, especially once it falls below freezing and the sun goes into hiding. Also, most people dont dip the Cinnamon Rolls; we just eat it as a side item (like fries and burgers). I cant think of anything better than a Runza on Temp. Tuesdays (when the price is the temperature at 6am) and a warm helping of a cinnamon roll and a small bowl of chili to help you forget that the windchill is -20 Celsius outside

[@AmericanHothead]

I'm not going to be able to agree. I lived in NE for a long time and never quite fell in love with it. It works on a certain level because the chili is more of a sweet "sloppy joe" than most but it still never seemed right to me.

From Wyoming originally, and this was a school lunch staple. I can't speak to Runza's chili or cinnamon rolls, but whenever I make chili, I make (or buy) cinnamon rolls. And I absolutely dip them. The flavor combo may seem weird, but it works.

I don't wanna stray too far from Chilli and cinnamon buns, but there are so many amazingly tasty combinations that seem weird. You just gotta be open to trying them!!

I had a burger and fries at In n Out several years ago when I was in California. I'm not a big burger person, but I thought the burgers at In n Out were great. I like the fact that the burger meat actually tasted good, not like cardboard. They used fresh lettuce and tomato on it, and a nice bun. They didn't use frozen french fries. They cut the potatoes right there and put them in the fryer. It didn't have any special sauces on it or even cheese. It was simple, but all of the ingredients were fresh and good quality. So I guess that's why it was so good. ??? But it has been a few years since I had it, so I don't know if it's the same.

In and Out Burger is different from most other fast food chains in that they train up and try to retain their staff. They rely on skilled cooks rather than automation and machines. Everything is prepared fresh, including cutting the potatoes for the fries. If you eventually go to one, take the time to learn about the secret menu.

Runza, Nebraska. Chili and cinnamon rolls are a statewide expectation. Nebraska kids all grow up with that combo in school lunches. Runza was able to purchase a “secret” cinnamon roll recipe from a now defunct tea room in Lincoln. During January and February Tuesdays, whatever the temperature at 6 am is, that’s the price of a Runza when you pay regular price for a drink and fries. Since the weather can be 0° F or lower, the Runzas are often free or perhaps 5 cents. Temperature Tuesdays are great to get a cheap lunch. The other extra is Frings - fries with about 5 onion rings combined. They have the best fast food fries ever!

[@LetsgoVegas]

In n Out isn't the best burger in the state of California, but it is a good fast food burger. Fresh, cooked to order beef with ingredients well preportioned. The vegetables are always fresh and provide a good crunch. If you like thousand island type burger sauce their sauce is very addicting. Their fries aren't the best, but can be smothered in cheese, onion and sauce to taste better. I think a big reason in n out is so popular in states it is in, is it's tasty but it's also cheappp. Combo meals cost less than McDonald's and the service is quicker and often better.

[@pluto587]

As a New Yorker I fully agree with their choice of Xians. That place is amazing!!! Their noodle bowls and lamb burgers are so good!

[@elissaparsons23]

I love Bobby Qs. The first one, in Phoenix, used to be called Bobby McGee's. There's only the 2 Bobby Qs here in Arizona, but they're both awesome. In n Out finally came to Arizona, and honestly I'm not impressed lol. The burgers are ok, but the fries are bleh. People think I'm insane when I say that lol

At IN-N-OUT the fries are made from potatoes multiple times a day and their beef is delivered fresh not frozen daily. Their menu is small only offering burgers, sodas, shakes and fries. Wait times can be a hour or more on a late Friday or Saturday night.

[@bretwilliams249]

In-N-Out secret is the balance on flavors, and honestly, mostly just company loyalty. It isn't the best burger by a long shot.

[@DrMiles15]

What makes In-n-Out and Whataburger great is that they have local beef suppliers. They want to be able to deliver fresh, never frozen beef to the restaurants every morning. That’s why they only stay in those select few areas.

[@jayjayjames2332]

I've only had In N Out once. I've had Whataburger twice. (I live in Michigan so neither are anywhere near me). The In N Out I got was complete garbage. I'd try it again because there's no way what I experienced is what everyone hypes up. Whataburger is amazing and after having it once in TX, I made sure we stopped at a location in New Mexico when were were driving cross country a couple years later. So in my limited experience, Whataburger is far better than In N Out. Whataburger's easily in my top 3 fast food burgers and possibly number 1. If that In N Out I had is anywhere near normal, they're in the bottom half and I've tried a lot of fast food locations in my life.

[@ms_scribbles]

In-N-Out is not great, at all. I'm starting to think that the chain pays all these video list creators to rank it at the top. They used to be decent, but now they're just piles of grease. If you come to California, go to The Habit instead. Their Portabella Char is gorgeous. (But ask for light mayo, because at least in my local place, they go a little crazy with the mayo.)

In-n-Out burgers are delicious! They come to you perfectly joined…warm toasted bun, yummy beef burger, fresh veggies. In-n-Out offers your food as inside-dining, take out, and uniquely eat in the car presentation. Price is very reasonable. Whataburger is pure love. My favorite is their pattymelt. Huge slices of Texas toast loaded with large hamburger, cheese, and fried onions. Comfort food. It is such a large burger that I get burger juice and onions on each side of my face as I am eating it! Favorite? Has to be Whataburger….withbfresh onion rings!

[@debra-vs]

I lived in LA, CA for 7 years. I wasn't impressed with In-N-Out burgers. To be honest, I've had What-a-Burger, as well, and wasn't impressed with them, either. I'll always recommend local eateries, not the chains.😊 Those round little potato cakes are called 'tater tots' and are delicious. They're literally hash browns made into bite-sized balls and deep fried like french fries. Delicious.

[@teresavandal4973]

Actually tator tots come in two shapes... there are places here as well that do the flat cake like tator tots like Dunk'n Donuts, BUT if you buy them frozen in the grocery stores you will get cylander shaped potatoes.

As a Californian, I think In-N-Out used to be excellent, but since they’ve expanded so much, they’re just OK now. Still good, but no longer great. Just like Rubio’s, too many kitchens spoil the menu.

The first time I ever had In-N-Out was 10 years ago in LA, and it was no great shakes. The idea that the expansion of the franchise into other states has turned a once outstanding burger into an also-ran is frankly just bullshit. I say this acknowledging that even our beloved Whataburger is pedestrian compared to even an average medium patty bar burger cooked medium. Basically there's just a lot of broke people with kids getting all their burgers through a drive-thru that are driving up the demand for thin-patty burgers, but it's not a real comparison. Thick patty burgers are king, fuck the thin patty chains.

[@ms_scribbles]

Yeah, I am getting tired of these lists naming In-N-Out as our best food joint. The burgers are greasy and the fries are soggy. Plus, now it's been revealed that they don't really care about the health and safety of either their employees or their customers. We have so many FAR better restaurant chains around here. Roscoe's, El Torito, Del Taco, The Habit, etc. And that's just the chains, like they're listing in this video.

As a lifelong Minnesotan...I've literally never hard of or seen a MyBurger. I can tell they just googled and picked the top rankings on Yelp. If you want to know what our ACTUAL best restaurants are, they're probably: - Punch Pizza is a small chain of Italian-style pizzas made in a woodfire oven, and covered in traditional ingredients - Dairy Queen is international now, but started here as a series of seasonal ice-cream stands. Many locations in Minnesota still close in November and open up against in April. - Famous Dave's is a now national chain of BBQ places, along with other products, but started here in the early 90s. - LeeAnn Chin's is a Minnesota-only fast-casual chain of Asian fusion restaurants founded by the titular Chinese immigrant in the 70s, starting as a single chain before selling off and expanding. - Matt's Bar is the original home of the Jucy Lucy, and everyone in Minnesota needs to try it at least once

[@crawfordjason]

Famous Dave’s is originally from Hayward, Wisconsin started in 1994. Dairy Queen started in 1940 in Joliet, Illinois. Both are currently headquartered in Minnesota. Regardless, there are so many better local joints to pick instead of all these fast food places. I’ll always pick a small independent local restaurant, if possible. Life is too short to eat the same garbage every day.
