Quality you can taste! In-N-Out keeps everything consistent: limited menu items, stellar ingredients, retro interiors, and reasonable prices.
They are across the street from UCI and a short walk away from the company's headquarters. I think they get frequent visits from corporate, this location feels like it's being held to a higher standard. That being said, they're always swarmed with college students at all hours of the day. But the staff here run a tight ship, fulfilling orders as fast as they can.
My go-to is always the Double-Double. You get two 2-oz ground chuck patties that are pretty thin honestly, but still juicy. Order a 3x3 or 4x4 for more protein. You also get two slices of American cheese specially formulated with a lower fat content to achieve that perfect melt. Never had any issues with their tomato slices or hand torn lettuce. Onions are also excellent, no matter if it's sliced, chopped, raw or grilled! Ingredients are all stacked together between two toasted sponge dough buns.
What else is consistent? The fries limp and wilt after 3 minutes! They don't double fry, so you have to eat it as soon as you get it. Or else the texture gets mushy by the time you arrive home. Order it "light well" or "well done" for a crispier consistency, it's slightly better.
Besides that, this is the best fast food money can buy!
