    You’re not missing anything - they are pretty overrated with a very limited menu. In my opinion 5 Guys is better.

      Isn’t the appeal of in-n-out the lower price point compared to other fast food burger places, rather than the options or stellar flavor? 5 guys is way more expensive and the customization/taste reflects that.

        Agreed that 5 Guys is pricier (although here in CA fast food prices everywhere are through the roof) but, and this is just my opinion, which is basically worthless to anyone else - if I am going to pay In-n-out prices, I’d rather just go to Wendy’s or McDonalds. Although I will say that the shakes at in-n-out are the best, again just my opinion.

      5 guys is better, but also more than twice the price.

      In N out isn’t the best, but they’re the best for their price.

        P. Terry’s is comparable, but fairly new and currently limited to 30 or so locations in Texas.

            Because In N Out is also in Texas (my city has both), they are comparable in quality/price, and they are presently expanding. I’m sorry this information does not help you specifically, but that does not mean it’s useless to everyone.
