They opened up this past Monday. I'm gonna see if I can talk my girlfriend into going there tonight even though it's on the other side of town. To me, it's worth the drive!

Where is it located? Ive been curious about Fatburger since I heard Ice Cube say "Two in the morning got the Fatburger."

It's in the Huebner Oaks shopping center, but on the side part. You are gonna exit huebner and then make a right. I haven't seen it yet myself. But this might help you even more with directions. www.fatburger.com.

There used to be a Fatburger in Vegas when I lived out there, but I never stopped to get one. Not that I didn't want to try, but it was always too damn busy. But I guess it's easy to pass by when you have places like Rally's, Carls Jr, and In-n-Out Burger all over town. :D

We used to have Carl's Jr. and Rally's. I wish they were still in town. Is in and out pretty good? Last time when I visited Vegas, we wanted to stop in one of them, but it was freakin packed and this was like at 10:30 at night! Of course, the strip wasn't too far off so it probably gets like that all the time with visitors.

In-N-Out is good, but given the choice, I'll always go with the Carl's Jr Western Bacon Cheesbuger. I pass by the one Carl's Jr we have here in SA every day, and I usually stop there about once every 2 weeks or so if have the time.

It's not in the Huebner Oaks shopping center, it's in an entirely different center all together.

In N Out, is god's gift to fast food.


They are a close second in burger quality to Chris Madrid's

In N Out are awesome burgers. I don't like their fries that much but you get used to them.

Fat Burger is a great place though. I haven't tried the one here yet, but I've been to them in several cities.

There's one in Vegas right on the strip, kind of down near Bally's, as I recall (I could be wrong) - which one is that? I know there's an In N Out kind of off the strip, but I ate at one that I'm pretty sure wasn't that.

I went to the one here last Wednesday, before I bowled league at University.

its overrated.

I could have gone to Fuddruckers and got a better meal for roughly the same price.


although their lemonade kicked much ass

The first Fatburger to spring up was the one you're talking about next to Bally's. But by the time I left, there were a few more. I lived closest to the one on Sunset and Mt.Vista. The first In-N-Out popped up on Nellis. That's the only one I ever ate at. But I never wasted much time in burger joints in Vegas. There were casinos all over town that had cheap food. Why spend 5-6 dollars on a burger and fries when you can spend the same amount for steak and Lobster tail.

I went. I just got back. It was good. I'd go again. Not the best.

On that note, give me Whataburger anytime. I'll take Whataburger over FatBurger anyday!

Whata is not as pricey either.

No shit. Whataburger rules.

When I want to take my wife out for a nice meal, we go to Chesters. It's a little more classy. :)

Fatburger is ok but can't come close to In-n-Out; great burgers and fries and REALLY CHEAP!! I wish In-n-Out would expand beyond Cali, Nevada and Arizona. Probably won't happen until they decide to franchise.

I recommend trying Fatburger at least once. Locally, I still prefer Chris Madrids, Chester's and the good ol' standby Whataburger.

Whataburger will always rule! It was alright, I thought the fries were very good and that was a mighty tasty Strawberry shake, even though the color looked like they threw some chocolate in there lol. It was a little pricey. Four of us could have eaten for the price of two there but it was worth it : :spin

Gosh how I miss Carl Jrs. I remember that place growing up, as well as Rally's. Do they still have those anywhere in town? I loved getting the sticker sheets. Those were the days...

Everyone in San Antonio (including my husband) thinks Whataburger is awesome.

What the hell?! When I was growing up, it was the fast food place that everyone wanted to avoid like the plague. I'd cry if my grandparents told me we were going to Whataburger instead of Wendy's, Carl's Jr. or Burger King. I absolutely don't see the appeal at all in Whataburger.

Fatburgers taste 10 times better than Whataburger.

I have lived here all my life, and I don't get it either.

Whataburger has always been overrated.


Whenever lunch places were suggested, I always suggested

"Anything but Smackburger (something my dad called it and I picked it up)"

Whataburger is real good, its the best of any fast food joint in town.

Chris Madrid's is just something else, its an institution....I loved having GTGs during my St Mary's days...between them and Henry's couldnt go wrong.

What is this Fatburger, I saw signs for it the other night when I was leaving the GTG, never heard of it....

Whataburger is good of course, but like stated, I too think it's over rated. Fatburger is a lot better overall.

Maybe the Whataburgers outside Texas are different...I dunno...

I don't get the Whataburger love either. And I was never a big fan of In-N-Out Burgers.

But Carl's Jr rules!

Yes. Wait for a day when you have a really healthy appetite, and order the Six Dollar Western Bacon Burger. They also have a damn tasty breakfast menu.

If anyone is interested a place called Culvers on DeZavala off I-10 has great burgers and another location that I am not to sure the exact place. You also have to try their homemade custards for desert.

I also thought I saw a sign "opening soon - fatburger" off of Heubner near Huebner Oaks!

Culvers is good too. Tasty burgers and shakes. I like thier fries cause they got the ridges on em. They have lots of other food their that I wanna try too.
