Carl's Jr (Closed)

Carl’s Junior is a well-known chain that offers fast-food burgers and tries hard to differentiate itself from McDonalds. The burgers here are relatively expensive, starting from around 10 plus for each burger. Nevertheless, there is a queue and discounts to be had if you present your Safra card. The drinks (like green tea in this picture) are free flow. As for the Thickburger itself, it was relatively average and probably not worth the 12 dollars for the entire set.…Read More

I mentioned in a previous review that Carl's Jr is my favourite fast food outlet in Singapore. Step aside Macdonalds, Carl's Jr is the category of the big boys. With larger portions and thicker-cut fries that the golden arches, Carl's Jr is a place best for the hungry and army boys. Which is also why it is right up my alley. I usually opt for the Famous star cheese burger (which is easily one and a half times the size of a burger from McD) and make it a meal with fries and free flow of drink. This time, they were having a lunchtime promotion for their Famous star with chili cheese sauce so I opted for that while my dining partner had a breaded chicken sandwich. My favourite part of every CJ meal would have to be the thick cut fries. They are deliciously satisfying to eat and seem to be a lot more flavourful than the stringy ones offered at McDs. Not to mention the free salsa bar at CJ means that you can pick and choose which salsa sauce you want with your meal! For drinks, I usually get the homemade tea and this is also a much healthier option because the tea is unsweetened so you can choose how much (or little) sugar you want to add in it. All for only $7.90 and free-flow of drink too! On to the star of the show, sadly this time the burger was a disappointment. While I usually love the famous star with its thick beef patty and generous vegetable fillings, the chili cheese seemed to dominate the taste of the entire burger making everything taste like chili cheese. Which would have been wonderful if I had been a fan of chili cheese, but unfortunately, my tastebuds do not like angmoh chili very well. While it was not spicy, I have to say that it has an acquired taste that some of us may not be used to probably due to the spices they used. Next time, I'll just stick to my usual Famous star minus the chili cheese so that I can enjoy my burger just the way it is. If you're looking for a quick and value-for-money meal, do head down to Carl's Jr to try out their burgers and fries!…Read More

Had the famous star burger in Plaza sing's carl's Jr today.The famous star is surprisingly good.The burgers at plaza sing seems to taste better than those at NEX fr some reason.The beef patty is juicy CArl's jr has really lived up to its reputation for being a great calue for its money! There is also free flow of drinks at this outlet which is absent in the NEx outlet that i frequent. One thing i find lacking in this fast food restaurant is that the service is quite slow though- they take quite a long time to prepare your burger:(…Read More

If you're feeling peckish in town and craving for some good ol' fast food, I will definitely have to recommend Carl's Junior as my favourite fast food joint (since In-N-Out hasn't arrived on our shores yet...). While I usually order the Famous Star burger set meal for to sate the cheeseburger craving, I decided to try out the Chicken tenders and went with the Chicken ranch burger today. Chicken ranch burger! While the fried chicken is not on par with the famous star cheese burger, I definitely recommend it to chicken lovers who can't take spicy food such as the popular McSpicy burger from Mcdonalds or Zinger burger from KFC. The chicken was a tad bit dry but the ranch dressing was a delicious accompaniment to the meat. The best part of the meal? Carl's Junior fries. I definitely prefer this over Mcdonalds fries. Not only are they thicker, they also seem to be much more flavourful than those from McDs. Quick tip: Request for no salt fries and you can be sure to get a fresh crispy batch of them fried specially for you! Crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside, best fries in Singapore! While their prices are on the higher side for fast food meals, their portions are usually big enough to share and I usually get one set and "go large" (up-size) to share with a pal! This meal came up to $9.90. Their salsa bar is also a huge plus for me and I usually go with the normal salsa which gives a refreshing taste to otherwise heaty food. Don't forget to opt for their homemade ice tea instead of the usual sugary soft drinks offered in fast food joints, it's not only healthier but much more delicious as you can control how much sugar you want to add in it. As you can probably tell, Carl's Junior has maintained its position as my favourite fast food chain in Singapore!…Read More

Whenever my brother visits me in Singapore, he always has one request-- eat at Carl's Jr. So during Christmas, we visited this fastfood restaurant at Plaza Sing. I had the Famous Star with Cheese and upgraded my fries to onion rings.It's been a while since I last ate here, but man, their standards haven't dropped a bit. The burger is still as thick, juicy, and bursting with flavour. The onion rings are crispy with bread crumbs but the insides are really tender. Fair warning though: it is seriously HOT!!! Another thing I like about Carl's is that you have unlimited drinks and salsa! So, for the price you pay for the meals, it's definitely worth it!…Read More

chilli beef friesThe fries are crispy and fragrant, not too oily and naturally cut. On top of the large portion of the fries there are the chilli beef and melted cheese which are my favourite. Anyway the portion is really shocking and i think this could be a main course already. Though it is very delicious and finger licking, never consume this sinful thing too much.waffle friesthis waffle fries are great too, nicely cut, deep fried and seasoned. The outer layer of the fries are crispy and the inner are soft and fluffy. The drink is free flow for purchasing set meal, but i bet you will not have the chance to refill it because the whole burger plus the fries are already very filling, plus one cup of large soft drink is more than enough.Chilli cheese burgerThe burger is really the biggest burger I have eaten, this burger plus the fries could easily feed two persons. Anyway the bun isn't that nice, hard and a bit dry. The ingredient inside is large too, portion is generous but not too delicious. The chilli beef does help adding the flavour though.…Read More

the bacon cheeseburger was very nice the burger was worthwhile. It is bigger than normal burger at Mac or Burger King. The bacon cheeseburger is very flavorful. the bacon is not too hard to chew on and the sauces combine really nicely. The beef is also not too tough to chew and the cheese on the beef was awesome.:) it was nicer than mac's double cheeseburger :X I really love it!!~ …Read More

carl jr does nice fries. although this place is very small and space is very limited as it is a popular spot, the food is not too bad. the fries are nicely done. but the place is usually sticky and messy, which lots of trash on the floor. the tables are also very small and usually uncleared. the condiments area always runs out of condiments and there's always a mess. it's gross sometimes, to watch people drip stuff and mess with the condiments because it's self-serve and people have no hygiene.…Read More

For heavy eater, Carl's Junior burgers such will satisfy your stomach. One thing for sure, all their burgers are huge in size. Tried their western bacon cheese burger and the taste is fantastic! Is filled with generous amount of BBQ sauce, crunchy onion rings, crispy bacon and large beef patty. Just a burger itself is more than enough to satisfy your stomach. However the price is abit too high at S$7.30 each. Would be better if this price includes french fries and drinks. …Read More

We had the THICKburgers and they were fabulous! It's how normal burgers are supposed to be! Not squashed, flattened and dry. But thick, juicy, tasty, moist! Surprise!The THICKburgers are the only burgers from a fastfood joint worth having. And Carl Jr cooked it perfectly. Great fries to go with the burger.I wouldn't go to any other fastfood joint for a burger other than Carl Jr for their THICKburger. All their other burgers are a waste of time! Their other burgers are flat and skimpy on the toppings.Nothing special about the joint. Sticky mess on the floors and tables, you only get served when they take your order and deliver to your table. It's in the middle of a busy place and they're pretty busy themselves, so seating is a hit or miss.There're people standing all around you, glaring at you when you eat!…Read More

This is the best fries among all the fastfood outlets. Sometimes, i prefer this to their burgers. I love it so much that i can have it for lunch or even dinner. It would be even better if more cheese. It is good enough to eat it on its own. No chilli or tomato sauce required. if you are looking for good fries, you have to come by here if you have not yet do so. …Read More

Recently went to Carl's Jr, after several years, and tried out their new burgers. :) I got a Guacamole Turkey Burger, and their famous chilli cheese fries! Honestly, the pricing is way expensive for fast food, but on the good side, the food has much better quality and freshness, and they allow free refills for your drinks, plus, it's self-serve, I got some really house-brewed ice tea, added in how much liquid sugar I wanted, added pieces of lemons, and wow, I liked it! Also, their tomato sauce is not like those of its counterparts, like McDonald's, rather, you can taste the concentrate tomatoes in their ketchup, and I LOVE THEIR SALSA. It is the bomb! The price deters me from going there often, but I think once in a while, it's pretty worth the money to get some good fast food. …Read More

I did never fail to order the original THICKburger whenever I patronise Carl's Jr. It is a huge burger. I had trouble finishing the entire burger, not to mention the fries. The fries are very crispy and do not become soggy after a short while. Despite the good food, this is definitely a pricely fast food chain. It costs as good as a restaurant! $10 plus for a set. Yes despite the price, I am hopeless addicted to it. This probably explains how they can price their food so high and yet not lose customers. …Read More

It was a Friday dinner time, and the place was crowded. Luckily for us, a couple left and we could have their seats. It was my first time trying out a new burger - Double bacon western burger. Strips of bacon, melted cheese, onion rings, BBQ sauce and beef patty on a sesame seed bun. Not too bad, I would say, but not my favorite. The bacon and beef went well, and how can one go wrong with BBQ sauce. As a whole, the burger was flavorful enough and it was quite a big serving. It was quite a feat trying to finish the fries after that. …Read More
