With access to In N Out, most burgers suck.

Most food at the track is sub-par and way overpriced. We bring our own. It leaves us more money to bet the ponies.

That said, our forum host's Carolina Barbecue samiches are very good and can be customized with different sauces.

Kind of an older version of the Bennies that come to the beaches in NJ.

slightly overrated IMO. though it is still one of the best fast food burgers.

Unless you get it from Mc D's, Burger King, or Wendy's.. most burgers are better than In N Out.

best thing at Toga (IMO) besides Carolina BBQ (of course ) are the Saratoga Chips with a side of cheese to dip them in.

Very healthy

but delish!!!

lots of good food OUTSIDE of the track though...


Hey Clyde! Do you know of any good places to eat in Saratoga?

5 guys > In N Out.

any burger you can get at a chain like Chilies or Ruby Tuesdays > In N Out.

Its been a long time since I've had In N Out.. but it was nothing that stuck out for me.

Better than Backdoor burger definately.

I'll take 5 guys over it though.
