This venerable travel guide has been the beacon of hope for famished explorers since the dawn of the interstate highway system. With its meticulous rankings and uncompromising standards, Fodors separates the wheat from the chaff through its amazing reviews of restaurants nationwide.

A Fast Food Odyssey
In a culinary odyssey that would make Homer Simpson weep tears of joy, Fodor's has bestowed upon us a definitive list of the best fast food joints in America. From the hallowed grounds of Culver's, where custard milkshakes flow like the ancient rivers of Wisconsin, to the hallowed halls of In-N-Out, where burger thoe in the know can order off their legendary "secret menu," this list is a veritable pilgrimage for the gastronomically devout.
The complete list included these fine fast fooderies:
- Culver's
- Shake Shack
- In-N-Out
- Whataburger
- Raising Canes
- Five Guys
- Chick-Fil-A
- Dave's Hot Chicken
- Kelly's Roast Beef
- White Castle
- Dick's
- Jollibee
Surprising Omissions
Surprisingly, neither the Golden Arches nor arch-rival Burger King made the list. Nor did major chains like Taco Bell, KFC, Popeye's, Arby's, or Wendy's. A little shade at the big boys here, but some big wins for smaller shops.
This list is a great guide for the road-weary traveler trying to make a dining decision at the next rest stop. Take a peek. There may be some spots you haven't tried yet right near you.
