I used to be a big fan of Carl’s Jr. hamburgers – we are talking from way back in the day (like the 80’s.) Although I had never actually eaten one until much later, they advertised on all the LA Lakers games. Being a Laker fan since I started watching basketball, and being the the burger seemed exotic (as it wasn’t available in Texas) I liked the thing.
When I actually did get out to California, it was the first fast food outing I made. I have to say, I was not impressed, it tasted like a more expensive version of the Hardees burger. (Which was available in Nacogdoches where I attended college, and I later discovered was owned by the same company.)
In any event, I don’t eat a lot of fast food burgers anymore, but I will give the new Carl’s Jr. in San Marcos a try for nostalgia if nothing else.
I am guessing that Paris Hilton is not included.
When is it opening???
From the looks of it, I expect it to be within a week.
It looks like it could open anytime now. Tonight I went by and the parking lot was packed. It looked like an employee meeting or something.
I am totally stoked about having a new fast food place in San Marcos, drove by yesterday night as well out of curiosity of all the cars around there and it looked like it was just a meeting again. If you learn anything else about when it’s opening keep us posted.
Looks like they’re doing hiring/training there. The parking lot pretty much always has cars in it, but they’re def not open yet.
I just called the # listed for the Carls Jr on Slaughter since there isnt one listed for the one in San Marcos. Anyways the person I talked to said the San Marcos one is supposed to open 12/16.
Free food today and tomorrow at Carls Jr in San Marcos is what I’ve been told.
I went there last night for the first time in years and it was downright lame. The prices are crazy and the food is subpar at best.
