Fuddruckers, or, as they call it, something else that’s not allowed under the rules, is a real burger joint. They serve burgers that are 1/3 lb, 1/2 lb, 2/3 lb, or 1 lb in size. That’s the only variety, and they used to be my favorite “cooking for the burger crowd” set. Five Guys has toned them down a bit, but it’s still a good place to party. The quality is above average, and the prices are quite reasonable. It is a large table that offers a large array of choices, and the service is quick for those hearty appetites that cannot wait too long before eating dining room table .
This is a beggar restaurant, and all their local signs have road signs everywhere. There are old bicycles and boats on the walls and ceiling of my apartment next door, and there is also a picture of “Fuddles the Clown.” I let go of the chain for Fuddles, as it is a bit disturbing, and it reminded me of Pennywise from the movie “It”. He usually plays rock-music on his sites, and it’s not big enough to bother. video games I’ve been in every Fuddruckers lounge, which is great for letting the kids spend their piggy banks . Sadly, every site seems to only have Pinball and Pacman.
The service at Fuddruckers is excellent. The servants were always friendly, and I was impressed with their knowledge. They are not around the inspection like any other chain is, and their suggestions were right on the money. Sometimes there is a time line for the fund, but even then it is usually adequate to make this a minor obstacle. After ordering you are given a square electronic contraption that lights up when the food is ready. You can order your burgers from medium rare to very well done, and the cooking time is usually quite efficient. Since I always order extra dead/crispy burgers, I’m always the last one at the table to eat.
The quality of the beef is excellent, and it is ground daily according to their standards. I believe that it is always fresh. The rolls are actually the best part of the burger, and they have the best in the business. Lightly toasted, they also sell them as “To Go” items for customers. I actually bought them for my grilled burgers at home, and they really make a difference in the overall flavor. As for sizes, I suggest 1/2-2/3 lb. (Go with 2/3lb only if you’re really hungry) I tried one pounding, because I was the thing, and I didn’t need to eat until the next day. I was also tired, and it was not pleasant. But I have a shirt that I bought that shows me as a proud member of the “One Pounder Club.” I think I’m basically a schmuck.
Fries Fries are weak, as these pieces lack any kind of potato flavor. They are also often uncooked and give you a small serving. The only way it’s tolerable is if you dip them in ketchup. Also add a little bit of Old Bay, which is available in Fixins Lines. Another item to avoid is the Ostrich Burger. These ugly-looking birds taste this way, too, and never leave half a piece of meat. I did this ideally, as the taste and texture were falling apart. According to their purity stats it is much healthier than their regular burgers. Avoid it by all means.
The best burger is their Three Cheese, which comes with Cheddar, Monterey Jack, and Swiss. You can always add bacon, which makes this difficult to beat. The other Fuddrucker Line burger that I recommend is a bit underwhelming. Their Southwest burger, not to be confused with the airline, has Bacon, Guacamole, and Pepper Jack Cheese. Treat it nice and tasty, and you’re looking good with a change. Ragin’ Cajun Chicken Sandwich is quite tasty and quite spicy. If you like fish, they also have a fish burger. All-you-can-eat, and there are seasonal offerings of steak and shrimp items on the menu.
One of my favorite aspects of Fuddruckers is the Fixings Line. Here you choose what toppings you want on your roast. There are large jars of ketchup, mustard, honey mustard, mayo, and a1 steak sauce. You can choose veggies for toppings like lettuce, tomato, onions and garlic. This personalization of the burger gives the customer some creativity, and this area is kept clean. Fuddruckers offers some of the cleanest restaurants I’ve ever been to, and I’d like to recommend them to work on this. Although this Fixin line is busy, the staff is working hard to ensure that there are no problems in this area.
Shakes are another area that Fuddruckers shines. They offer Chocolate, Vanilla, and Classic flavors. These milkshakes are thick and remind me of the fine shakes that can be purchased at the Silver Diner. (Old Made) They are a little on the pricey side ($3.50) but they are worth it. It’s a good start to lunch when they call you ready. This usually arrives long before the meal, and is a gentle start to the feast of forgiveness. You can also order Root Beer Floats, but I’ve never had one at Fuddruckers.
Prices are reasonable at this restaurant, and most burgers are in the $5-$9 range. Arrows are extra yearly, and my usual meal comes to about $10, with a fountain drink too. If you have kids, consider Fuddruckers, as they have a large menu for them. Instead of lunch they like it, it seems to be the perfect dinner at that time of the day. The expressions on the shirts and hats are very entertaining!
