They have been running this ad for the last week with other SB ads. The Bud commercial with the Clydesdale foal is pretty good. 👍

Those original commercials were great. Here’s a vin. My Dad knew Carl Karcher. Carl’s original stand was near my Dad’s business. I’d go there with my Dad on some weekends. Great burgers, but my fav were the tamales. Although, I doubt if Carl or his wife made them.

I used to love the chilli dogs at the old Carl's.

You peeps are slipping, surprised vin isn’t already on this😂

First that burger looks pretty tasty. Wish the CJ’s near us was good. Quality no bueno there.

She's hot and the ad doesn't have amplified eating noises - I give it 👍👍

The eating noises in the other ads make me want to throat punch people 🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢

Couldn’t agree more. The fuckin eating noise was soooooo annoying. Who wants to hear people chewing?

…Something about Carl’s drives me away… I think I’m only had a burger there once maybe 40 years ago… Maybe it’s their places just don’t have curbside appeal… What am I missing???…

Have you seen them lately? They have been remodeling their locations and they no longer look like old McDonalds locations.

Still hasn't helped their food look appealing in real life. Their burgers look good on tv but when you actually order one its been run over by a steamroller and you can't see anything but bun.

I think it depends on what location you go to and that applies to most fast food chains. Burger King actually puts out a decent burger if you go to one that the employees care about the quality but the one in Downey pretty much gives you a do it yourself kit. Literally they just throw the ingredients in the bag . On the other hand I’ve been to some where the burger looks like it was prepped for a commercial.

The only place I know where the food looks like the commercial is In N Out. They don't deserve to be lumped in with other fast food places. They are good food, fast.

… That pretty much describes the Burger I had 40 years ago… Didn’t look good and really had no taste…

… There is a Carl’s Jr. maybe 2 miles from me that is stuck in a corner and kind of hidden… you never seen any cars waiting… And it looks like it would actually be kind of hard to drive through🤷🏽‍♀️… I had almost forgotten it was there…

… There is a Burger King maybe a half mile from me…sort of in the front of the parking lot of Home Depot in North Hollywood… I have been going there off and on since it opened, maybe 35 years ago… the burgers are always good as well as the fries…The window people are always super nice… but the people who take your orders are at times hard to understand???…

Best thing at Carl's Jr. is the southwest chicken sandwich by far.
A BK Whopper is twice as big as most other places. Usually too much catsup and mayo, but huge.

Anyone on here know if Karcher Interior systems, Karcher Insulation, and Karcher Environmental have ties to Carl's?

Nothing.

The $6 burger costs $17.00 and the fries taste like somebody forgot to set the Air Fryer on cook....

Karcher Insulation used to, don't know about now. Worked on a job in Riverside with some of them back in early 90s.
