That's what I plan on doing. I'm not going to pass judgement on a single visit. Everyone has an off day and I may have just been there when it was theirs.

Not as good as some of the burgers I've had off the family's home grown beef (I was spoiled rotten as a child with homegrown beef) but it was still outstanding.
I think you're talking about Dick's Drive In. They have several places throughout the area. They do serve up a good burger and fries.

Do kids still do that?
Yep, we had a few drive ins we'd frequent on Friday/Saturday nights to show off our cars and check out everyone elses. There's a couple places out South that still do, but the A&W in Issaquah is closer to me. They're one of the few remaining spots around that still caters to the 'hot rod' crowd, but they went under new ownership a while ago so it's uncertain if the hospitality will last. The crowd seems to be thinning out, but a lot of cars are in storage right now. We'll see what Spring/Summer brings about.
