Hot. Fast. Tasty. Greasy. Yes, Zack's Hamburgers is the real deal: an old-school joint with a major Queen City fan base, serving fast food that's Charlotte's gold standard for the all-American meal of burgers and fries. Hope you brought your extra stomach -- you'll need it for burgers so big that the patty overhangs the bun. Zack attacks are sated with Zack's famous fries (called by some the best in town), chili burgers and only-in-the-South sweet tea. Most renowned? The greasy, carbo-licious, beloved favorite burger known as the Zack's Special, served here since 1975. Chow down on two beef patties, two slices of melted American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, mayo and special sauce on a toasted bun.

During warm weather, you can plunk down outside under red-and-white striped umbrellas, and there's always carry-out for those on the go. Prices are low, and service is fast though the noon lunch rush is chaotic on weekdays. The retro atmosphere in red and white might make you think of 'Happy Days,' while the greasy goodness of the menu options may cause your tastebuds break out into 'Cheeseburger in Paradise.'
