And by god was it absolutely terrible. New restaurant, clean on the inside, tried 3 different things and I have to wonder, does anyone actually like jack-in-the-box? How are they still in business?

Where else can I get a burger, tacos, egg rolls, and churros at 3am on a Thursday night after closing down the bars?

Ugh, sorry to say I do like it. Maybe my brain is kind of filling in the flavor gaps from when I used to eat it as a teenager. I'll admit the quality has gone down but that's true of almost every fast food restaurant. My go-to items are the meat lovers burrito, spicy chicken sandwich, ultimate cheeseburger, sourdough jack, and their tacos. Their whole menu is pretty damn fatty so if that's a turn off don't bother trying anything else.

Here's my Jack-in-the-box story: In high school, Jack-in-the-box was just opening in our town for the first time. My friend group used to go there for the $1 Jumbo Jack. It was a first taste of adult freedom. Positive memories haha
