Carl's Jr. -- opinions?
 

Hi all,

Do you ever heard about new fast-food restaurant is called Carl's Jr. Where we ate there at Carl's Jr. When we have order Teriyaki burgers with swiss cheese. It was very delicious. It was on Cactus Rd near PV Mall. My mom that she got order with double cheeseburger. So it was so good for both of us. So why you don't lookup the website at www.carlsjr.com for me. Thanks all.

Regards.

PS. Is that best hamburgers at Carls' Jr. So please let me know if you are interested to go out a nice lunch, dinners or whenever. Thanks again.

Carl's Jr. has the best fast food burgers due to being char-broiled. Their prices are competitive with the other fast food burger operations. They're primarily a West Coast operation, but their East Coast counterpart is Hardees. I believe both are owned by the same parent corporation.

Carl's Jr. isn't new...they've been around since the 1950's. I worked at one 25 years ago when I was in school.

They ran (and continue) to run good advertising campaigns. Their Super Star w/cheese commercials ("Napkins are free" with some hot model chowing down on a burger with juice dripping) and their Six-Dollar burger commercials are classic.

If I were forced to eat a fast-food hamburger. In-n-out and CarlsJr/Hardees would be my picks.

Carl's Jr. was a staple growing up in Southern California. Then, the dear founder, Carl Karcher, became known for spending his $ various causes that made me never want to eat there again. I don't know what the current ownership is, now that he is gone (i.e., 6 feet under). But growing up, and before I knew what he was all about, it was a much tastier alternative than the golden arches, across the street.

Karcher had been a lifelong supporter of Conservative causes and contributed to anti-abortion and anti-gay initiatives.

Karcher was an early supporter of John Schmitz, a Republican and member of the John Birch Society who represented Orange County in the state senate and later Congress.

In 1978, he provided $1 million USD to California's Proposition 6, also known as the Briggs Initiative. He was the initiative's biggest financial supporter. The proposition was a ballot measure requiring the termination of all gays and lesbians from employment in public schools. The initiative was defeated by over one million votes.

Wow! It was so best burgers in the town. I am really likes it lot instead of going to eat at McDonalds. Because McDonalds does not good for me at all. It is all unhealthy. This is not specifics time for me at McDonalds. So I will no longer eat at McDonalds. Sometimes that I will eat at breakfast time to get steak & eggs cheese bagels in St. Augustine. So I can't go to McDonalds anymore. When my friend Marilyn told me that I can't go to McDonalds at all. She knew all about McDonalds is unhealthy and it was very bad food.

Oh! I didn't realize know that before. How do you know about Carl's Jr? So it is very good fast-food in Arizona. So you went work at Carl's Jr from 25 years ago? That was long time ago. I didn't even know that since you were younger.

Paris Hilton did a famous Carl's Jr. commercial about 5 years ago.

Yes in places like California, they have been around for many years. My brother told me recently they've added "Big Carl" into their menu to counter Big Mac and you can get Big Carl value menu with fries & drink for under $5.

I've never cared for Carl's, except for their spicy chicken sandwich, but if the 'Big Carl' is anything like the short-lived Big King, I may give it a shot. IMO, that was the only decent burger Burger King ever made.

I don't eat at Burger King anymore. Because we are very extremely busy. I didn't have enough time to go out a lunch or dinner at Burger King.

The first time I had a Six-Dollar Burger it had a taste and mouth feel exactly like the burgers my dad used to grill for us in the backyard when I was a child. The senses of smell and taste are the most directly evocative of memory, and suddenly, unexpectedly, I was transported back to my childhood. I was overwhelmed with emotion. Subsequent experiences of the Six-Dollar Burger have not been so shocking, but they still make me remember those childhood days and my late parents in the prime of their lives.

I admit that I liked Padma's better. I read somewhere that Carl's Jr. broke her of her vegetarianism.

Carl's Jr has been in PHX for as long as I can remember. 20 years, at least. The location at PV Mall, on Cactus, has been there, for as long as I've lived in the neighborhood, 15 years or so.

Carls Jr in the West and Hardees on the East coast are the same restaurant, except Carls Jr is clean. The menus appear identical, although I never enter a Hardees to check for fear of what diseases I might catch.

After reading that, I'll be sure never to eat there again. :td:
