For burgers.... Five Guys or Fatburger. Hands down. Nothing fancy, just damn good meat, hot when you eat it, good fries and fresh addons. Fatburger's King burger with an egg? Holy cow is that a guilty pleasure...
Subway works for fresh fast food, too.
Chipotle is a big winner with me and the fam, but there isn't one close. If there was, it'd be our favorite because of their quality of ingredients and you can have a burrito or bowl. It's all custom, made to order like Subway, but really good Mexican food.
I haven't eaten at El Pollo Loco in a while, but it was pretty good when I had it. That chicken was freakin' addictive.
I have Wendy's once in a while because it's close, but if there was a Chipotle closer to me, I'd never eat at any of the "typical" fast food joints again. Once in a while means like every 3 months...
And Chik-fil-a wrecked me, too. And it was expensive...
