Milo's burgers used to be good, not any more. Today their chicken tenders are much better than their burgers. Their burger meat is fairly tough and grainy, it takes some work to get through one. But it wasn't always like this, back in the 80s when I moved back to Birmingham from Houston they had only one restaurant. I am thinking it was on 10th Avenue North just north of the downtown area. That was a great burger and there is no way you could duplicate that sauce. The sauce today is nothing like what they had prior to 2000 I think the best chain here now is Tazikis. It is a little on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for right ?
@@MoonlightDawnMoolightDawn That is a good looking menu at Don's. I go down there often so have added them to my restaurant bucket list. Heck, I could make a meal off just some of the appetizers, they have the shrimp remoulade I do love. The grilled stuffed shrimp sounds amazing
Pickle Barrel is great ! But Jersey Mike's is giving them a run for their money!! When I was a kid , Pickel Barrel sandwiches were huge ! The used a whole loaf of French bread and almost a pound of meat and cheese ! Now the are half that size or less ! EVER since the exodus up here, a lot of the local places sold out and left ! Can't blame them ! It sucks here now ! Montana
So for Oregon you went with a restaurant founded in Washington and for Washington you went with a licensee of a restaurant founded in Oregon. Good job...
I KNEW Texas was gonna be Whataburger!! Yay!! About 5 years ago, I decided to stop eating red meat. But once a month, I treat myself to a Whataburger with cheese and jalapenos! SO delicious!! There's no way I could ever stop eating Whataburger! (My colleagues eat Whataburger at least twice a week, which makes it even more tempting!)
I love Culver's. They are consistent with the quality of food and guest service. I've never had a bad meal there, everything is always hot and fresh. The custard is super good too!
Harold's is not even a top 20 chain in Illinois. Most Harold's have closed down, and the ones that didn't are never that busy. Portillos is easy the top chain in Illinois. Go to any one of Portillos restaurants, during any time, and it is always jammed packed.
I'd take Popeye"s over Harold's any day. Portillo's is where it's at for Illinois. We had a Harold's in Rockford for a few months. Went there once. They said we'd have to wait 25 minutes to get our food. Safe to say they ain't open anymore. Viva Portillo's!
More of a Seattle thing, but Ivars is the best food chain I can think of coming from Washington. Great clam chowder and consistency with fish dishes like halibut and salmon!
Ask anyone from Tucson and they will tell you Eegees is the best chain in the state. They are mainly in Tucson with a few in phoenix, and their frozen eegees which are a frozen drink similar to a icee are to die for. Their orignal grinder sandwich and ranch fries are the bomb too
I was curious which Okie-based chain you'd pick--Braum's, Sonic, Taco Bueno, Steak N Shake or Mazzio's. All are good, but I'd have to go with Steak N Shake.
They finally got AL right! I was thinking they were gonna say Big Bob Gibson's. All these video's try to call that AL bbq with the mayo based sauce. I was 30 before I even heard of it.
I was happy that one of these videos got AL right for a change. I haven't had Milo's since I moved to TX in 2017. I did make sure to go there one last time the night before lol
We need Taco John’s in Arizona… There’s so much good authentic Mexican food here, but sometimes I crave some unapologetically NON-authentic Mexican food too… Our only options for that are Taco Bell or Del Taco Moe’s Southwest Grill is another tasty faux Mexican chain I’ve tried outside of AZ
As Long as it is not Taco Beuno, I got sick at one of that chain in California. When we went back to see my Grandpa near the end a year or two later it was a Del Taco.
Taco John's is the best! I grew up eating it in Rockford, Illinois in the 60's, 70's and80's. Now I'm living in Arkansas and I go to the one in Russellville. YUUUMMMY! 🤗
Being near the Illinois/Indiana border/Chicago burbs my whole life I can't argue against Harold's and Schoops. 2 excellent choices and both places have locations on both sides of the border.
If you find yourself in Utah (sorry 😉), skip Arctic Circle, Crown Burger is the place to go. Seriously nothing like it, except the family members that broke off, to create Astro Burger, or Olympus Burger, all excellent, pretty much the same menu.
Lion's Choice is what Arby's use to be when the latter first started out decades back. A genuinely decent and flavorful roast beef sandwich, using actual roast beef. God only knows what makes up Arby's current version.
That you picked Gold Star over Skyline, or any other local restaurant chain in the entire state of Ohio disqualifies you from ever expressing an opinion about "best" *anything* forever.
agreed! a better choice would have been the restaurant exclusive to Ohio, "Mr. Hero". They have the best food and are all over the state, unlike Gold Star.
I don't know how Harold's Chicken for Illinois even got on the list. They where only in the Chicago area not the whole state of Illinois and Harold's Chicken is a place I would not even stop for chicken it now very good.
I agree 100% that Tudors Biscuit world is the best chain in WV. I'm from NC, and I wish we had Tudors. Bojangles would have some issues here if Tudors was around. Outside of homemade, Tudors has the best biscuits and gravy I've ever eaten at a restaurant.
I'm thrilled to see Pal's from up here in our little corner of TN..... it's definitely fast food done right...always good, always friendly, and always clean..... although, I would gladly trade a Pal's to TX for a Whataburger lol
IMHO, you're spot on with Lion's Choice in Missouri (by far the best), In & out in California (amazing) and Culver's in Wisconsin (they put the butter in the butter burger). I think you made a mistake in Georgia, you should have gone with Chick-Fil-A. Also in Ohio by default you would have to pick Skyline. Five Guys in Virginia? No? Nice list.
Lions choice is a mixed bag I have gone 3 times the first time I went it was the best roast beef sandwich I have ever had and I cooked roast beef on a food truck now the next 2 times hasn't been good but that first time is what I tell people about lol
As far as Wayback Burgers goes in De. it was originally called Jake's and the original one was not on main street in Newark. It was in a crappy little building on Ogletown road. The last time I noticed someone was selling cheap paint out of that building..
13:50 Skyline lovers just lost their lunch.😂😂😂 Gokd Star is my favorite and it has way more than 5 locations. Just guessing , I'd say they have closer to 60 locations.
I have lived in Indiana for 46 years, and have never heard of Schoop's Hamburgers. I did a search for them and there in a small area of Indiana near chicago.
@@andreytop1gg I was thinking the same... or Lee's Famous Recipe.... Maybe Snappy Tomato pizza but I'm not sure if that was founded in Kentucky ... probably not
As someone who has lived in multiple different spots in Iowa for the last 10 years.... No one has ever told me about maid rite.. the only people who bring it up are the ones in these videos, not to mention I've only seen like 2, on the opposite side of the state
Is it Primanti Brothers you are thinking of ? They do have great sandwiches but I don't want any fries stuffed into the sandwich, just leave them on the side please
taco time in washington state has ok food, but it's devoid of any flavor or spices and is pretty overpriced for what you get. burgerville in oregon is actually headquartered in washington state where there are also a number of locations, not just in oregon.
There is a small fried chicken chain in Georgia around the Augusta area named Wife Saver they are likely the best fried chicken I've ever had from a restaurant.
Braum's is disgusting!!! I worked there. The kitchen pre-makes the burgers and chicken and keeps them in metal lexans under heat lamps for the Speed of Service. Quality is NOT on the top of the list on hot food. The ice cream bought in the Fresh Market is often frost-bitten. My boyfriend was a cook, I was Fresh Market and Kitchen, and both of us coming from California were overwhelmed how much we missed In-And-Out. Maybe we are jaded by good fast food and good fresh markets...
I've lived in Michigan virtually my entire life and I have never even heard of Big John's Steak and Onion. I'll keep my eye out for one and give it a try. Upon Googling them, I found that they are all in the Flint / Central Michigan area, hence why I have never heard of them. Hardly the best chain restaurant chain if it's only available in a limited local.
I lived in NJ from 1969 until 1988 and never heard of them. I ate there once in Pittsburgh in 2003(?) they were meh. The New Brunswick White Castle and a bunch of Italian Mom & Pop places were better. (Texas Weiner II!)
Blake's in NM is absolutely the best! I've tried to replicate it on the grill with the best green chile I could find, but can't do it. Their fries are the best too. Sidenote: Can anyone tell me where I can get a corn dog that tastes anything like a Disneyland corn dog? I buy a season pass just so I can walk in and get a corn dog there.
Michigan? Leo’s Coney Island in SE Mich. Everywhere else? Any locally owned breakfast place where the third egg is free and/or homemade toast is an option. What the hell is Big John’s Steak & Bunyans?
Joe’s Kansas City used to be called Oklahoma Joe’s (despite being in Kansas). In Those days, there was one location which Anthony Bourdain listed as one of 14 place you must eat at before you die. I highly recommend it.
You aren’t missing anything. They only have 9 locations and I think they’re all in Columbia. I’m pretty sure most people in the state have never even seen one much less eaten there. If they were just going to pick a small chain that’s only in one city they should’ve come to Charleston. I could think of many others I’d prefer over Rush’s.
I wish "Mashed" realize that there is Upstate NY that have chains instead of the New York City restaurant chains that no one knows about!!! Thank you!!
As someone born and raised in Pittsburgh and spent alot of time in northeast ohio, quacker steak and lube stopped being good when all u can eat wing went away. Theres also so sky high chili in north eastern ohio
Wards getting some shine is a good thing. but they are only in south Mississippi which is a shame. finally this channels has a list that isn't about catfish from Mississippi.

Well it's definitely not pdq. Tijuana Flats would at least be a relatively well know chain. No one has ever suggested going to pdq...
So for Oregon you went with a restaurant founded in Washington and for Washington you went with a licensee of a restaurant founded in Oregon. Good job...

Not to mention the sheer number of options on the Culver’s menu… What other burger chain can you get a pot roast or butterfly shrimp plate dinner?
@@coyotelong4349 Facts!
Shoe you are spot 👌
@@coyotelong4349 agreed! Plus, they make THE BEST coleslaw ever, and it's a whole other level with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice added!
Only been there once. But one of the best burgers and cheese curds I’ve ever had. Delicious
In case anyone was wondering, Chipotle was founded in Denver. That would have been a much more recognizable and accurate choice.
Yeah, but Chipotle really isn’t all that good.
If you want E. Coli poisoning, Chipotle is the place to go. They do not understand food science at all.
The obvious choice. I also commented that. Another pick could have been Wahoo's fish taco.
I grew up in Denver, and what the fuck is Garbanzos?
Hooters was started in Florida. It would be far more recognizable than PDQ, but that wouldn't make it better. Although, I've never heard of PDQ.
Growing up 25 miles west of Portland Burgerville was a favorite to go to in High School. Still like to go there when visiting family.
Harold's is not even a top 20 chain in Illinois. Most Harold's have closed down, and the ones that didn't are never that busy. Portillos is easy the top chain in Illinois. Go to any one of Portillos restaurants, during any time, and it is always jammed packed.
Totally agree! Never even heard of Harold's. Portillo's is a staple around here!
I miss Portillos and Culver's. I used to go all the time when I lived in Illinois.
This comment restored my faith in humanity. Lol
I grew up in Aurora and lived there until I was 22. Never once heard of Harold's. Viva Portillo's!
I'd take Popeye"s over Harold's any day. Portillo's is where it's at for Illinois. We had a Harold's in Rockford for a few months. Went there once. They said we'd have to wait 25 minutes to get our food. Safe to say they ain't open anymore. Viva Portillo's!
Blake's Lota Burger also serves one of the best Breakfast Burritos with Green Chili. Their Green Chili is good on just about everything 🌹☺️
Rush's drive thru line is always crazy long. Good food so waiting is worth it.
I had no idea that my favorite store bought sweet tea brand, Milo’s, was a burger spot in Alabama lmao
More of a Seattle thing, but Ivars is the best food chain I can think of coming from Washington. Great clam chowder and consistency with fish dishes like halibut and salmon!
Ask anyone from Tucson and they will tell you Eegees is the best chain in the state. They are mainly in Tucson with a few in phoenix, and their frozen eegees which are a frozen drink similar to a icee are to die for. Their orignal grinder sandwich and ranch fries are the bomb too
Bobby Q was a really bad choice. 2 locations does not constitute a chain. Eegees or Federico’s would have both been great choices.
Never heard of Bobby Q or Eegees. I would pick Filiberto's. They all around the State and have many copycats that just but "Bertos" in store name.
Pickle Barrel in Montana Yummy! North of the border chicken, cheese, and green chilies my favorite
How are you going to leave out at Braum's is also a mini grocery store? That's the coolest part go get lunch and pick up groceries for dinner!
NJ-Jersey Mike’s? A Jersey Mikes in any other state would suffice. But in NJ, any mom and pop shops make REAL subs better even than Jersey Mikes
I love Raising Cain's. They're finally opening one near me but it's taking FOREVER to get built. I need my chicken!
I was curious which Okie-based chain you'd pick--Braum's, Sonic, Taco Bueno, Steak N Shake or Mazzio's. All are good, but I'd have to go with Steak N Shake.
Of all the restaurants in Alabama, they choose Milo's. Rush's in SC is amazing.
I second the Milos Restaurant chain in Birmingham Alabama. The Best. !
They finally got AL right! I was thinking they were gonna say Big Bob Gibson's. All these video's try to call that AL bbq with the mayo based sauce. I was 30 before I even heard of it.
Yes I live in California and don’t find In and Out particularly exceptional, but Californians do love them as the lines are always ridiculous.
You're probably right. But they are better than McDonald's.
Go Milo's in Alabama! As a child I accompanied my dad and grandfather to get burgers. That greasy bag was irresistible!
I was happy that one of these videos got AL right for a change. I haven't had Milo's since I moved to TX in 2017. I did make sure to go there one last time the night before lol
