Message: | Serious. Have a double double with grilled onions or a four by four animal style. Still the best hamburger in America, Zagat gives it a 22. They're all over Southern California. The french fries are sliced in house and dried in a T towel. Shakes use real ice cream and milk. There's nothing else on the menu-that's it. The same as when they opened in '48. Tommy's is OK (basically a hamburger with chili on top) but pales next to In 'n Out. For Thai try Tommy Tang's near West Melrose or Chandara. Killer Shrimp is worth a look as is Baja Fresh for burritos. Mostly, though, just go back to In 'n Out. You will dream about this place when you are back in New York! |
