"Arby's... you make the BEST tasting Burger in the Fast Food game, by a long shot! It was just delicious, once again. I have really enjoyed having it more often during it's second limited time run. The flavor and texture of your burger is just so enjoyable with the crunch of that outer crust, and then the juicy, tender inside explodes with juicy perfectly seasoned beef and fresh ingredients. I prefer mine without the onion and lettuce. I really hope that this delicious burger will become a regular offering. I highly recommend it to anyone!"
