In-n-Out Burger
Placerville, CA 95667
Selected Review
You kids today have it easy. There weren't any
In-n-Outs in Northern California, let alone on the way to Tahoe. Sure, you
could go to the Jim Otto shrine for Whoppers in Auburn, but that was about
it, fast-food wise.
Jim Otto sold off his Burger Kings five years ago (!?!), and now there's an
In-n-Out just off US-50. If you've ever been in more than one, you'll
realize that this has a pretty standard floorplan, though the outside
seating area is clean and a little larger than some.
I still like the burgers and shakes, and I still think that the fries, while
undeniably fresh, resemble packing material in taste and consistency.
Are you kidding??!!! An IN-N-OUT in
Placerville? There's nothing better after long day of drinking/snowboarding
than a "3x3" and "animal style fries".
This place has an extensive list of menu items that are not on the menu. But
lucky for you they are posted on their website. I grew up on this stuff in
Socal and its still just as good now.
In-n-Out is an American institution. A
cultural icon of California (oh ok Nevada too and I have yet to visit any of
the Arizona locations). The East Coast has White Castle, the Best
Coast has In-n-Out! For those visiting California for the first time,
this is a MUST visit fast food restaurant that's not so fast. Everything
is made to order. Fries are fresh and so are all the other veggies.
Chili peppers available upon request.
I couldn't resist this post, since it didn't come up in my PDA/phone, during
my recent jaunts to the Blue World of Tahoe. While this is a
cookie-cutter In-n-Out corporate store, the quality is consistent, the food
is tasty, and the service is friendly - everything I come to expect from
In-n-Out.
Are there no Yelpers stopping in at the last In-n-Out before arriving in
Tahoe??? hmmm...
