    What a disappointment today. I ordered a No. 5 with no tomatoes. I got a dried out cheeseburger with dried out hamburger patties, hard edges to the bun, a few slivers of lettuce, and hardly any condiments. This thing had been sitting under the lamps for quite a while. Ate about half of it and threw the rest in the garbage. A waste of money today. Should have went to Carl's Jr.
