7th street burger is like slightly better shake shack
Almost as good as In n Out imo

I really like Tacombis- not exactly fast food tho
Based on the highest ranked content on WSO, when it comes to fast food, the prestige rankings might give you an idea of some top-tier fast food chains that are worth checking out during your visit to NYC. Here's a quick rundown from the rankings:
Tier 1A (the pinnacle of fast-food prestige): Starbucks, Chick-fil-A. These places are highly regarded and could offer a great fast-food experience.
Tier 1B (respected name brands with strong exits): Chipotle, Panera Bread, In-n-Out Burger. Although In-n-Out Burger isn't available in NYC, Chipotle and Panera Bread are solid choices for a quick and satisfying meal.
Tier 2 (strong names, above shops will take you as a lateral): Panda Express, Jimmy John’s, Five Guys. These chains are known for their quality and could be a great option if you're looking for something familiar.
While these rankings are more of a fun take on the fast-food industry, they do highlight some popular chains that you might want to consider. NYC also has a vast array of local fast-food options that are unique to the city, so exploring beyond these chains could lead to some delicious discoveries!

Should he be asking where the best bœuf bourguignon or duck confiture is?
Sam's Falafel in Zuccotti park. You don't have choices ("sandwich or platter") but there's a reason that they always have the longest line.
