Editorial Review for Fatburger – by Renae Martin

The Scene
Eager customers order at the counter and employees, sans headphones, bark the order at the fry cooks. Construction workers, downtown employees and moms with kids slide into red-and-yellow booths. A retro jukebox sits in the middle of the restaurant, but it's rarely used, since jazz and R&B are always piped in.

The Food
There's a grilled chicken sandwich and a chili dog. Other than that, it's all burgers. Wrapped in paper and dripping with toppings, these burgers are definitely fatty. With the addition of a slice of cheese, bacon and a fried egg, and it's a hefty, cholesterol-laden treat that puts mainstream chains to shame. Diners with healthier aspirations can order the turkey burger with everything; it's almost as good as the red-meat variety and just as messy.

3 Star Rating: Average

Nothing special in my book. The meat to bun ratio was just acceptable. This really should be much higher given the price. Pros: The patty was fine and there was lots of lettuce, tomato and onion on top. Cooked right, not overdone, and slightly pink in the center. Nice counter help and good service on my visit. Clean dinning room and restroom. Cons: Typical mushy white bun, un-toasted. Yellow mustard and mayo spread a bit too thick. The fifties decor has been done to death. I find it boring. The fries and onion rings were mundane. Offers a slight improvement over the average chain burger but not anywhere near a great burger, not even close.

Pros: Clean

Cons: Overpriced

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I love Fatburger. I wish they had them in MI. To me, they have the best burgers. I haven't had cold fries that some ppl complained. The service was ok...the restaurant is very busy, but to me, it's worth it for the burgers.

Pros: great burgers

Cons: kinda expensive for a burger

Editor's Review

Cheaper than Red Robin, tastier than McDonald's, able to add a fried egg to a burger--it's the fast-food superhero.  See the full editorial review.
