CULVER'S RESTAURANT - TUCSON, AZ

This is a chain burger and frozen custard restaurant that started in Wisconsin where it is hugely popular. I read that when this Tucson eastside location opened not that long ago (the other one in tucson is on nw thornydale), culver's had the biggest opening day ever. and i don't know why.

first of all, there is inadequate room for the long wait line so many of the tables and booths up front are treated to buttocks in their faces and envious glances while eating their food . and the menu on the wall is so colorful and so full of choices and options not only for the food but also the custard that it was highly confusing for me and Bill. It was too much information presented in a jumbled fashion.

The prices are incredibly cheap. we paid about $8.00 for 2 single burgers and a large order of curly fries. But the burger didn't even come close to either Fuddrucker's or In n' Out. It was tasteless and really really thin (which is why most of their burgers are double patty offerings). Plus there was only a small amt. of ketchup, tiny squirt of mustard and only 1 small onion ring on the burger. The bun was soft and good but not any better than every other place that sells hamburgers; including even Denny's.

and the fries were a big disappointment; limp and not crispy.

Now i will try some of  their custard. They have great flavors; the featured flavor on the day we went was Andes' mint. And the cost of a pint is fairly reasonable if you buy more than one; the first one is $3.79 but all subsequent pints are only $2.
