I personally avoid McDonalds at all costs unless it’s an Egg McMuffin. I hate McDonalds and Subway especially when I can eat them at home.

Yeah, we got "taken out to eat" for a company meeting at that Elevation Burger once, and boy did it suck. One of my coworkers just threw his food in the trash; it was basically inedible. Maybe the ones out west don't suck, but I wouldn't bet on it. I'd rather go to the Alexandria Fuddruckers across the bridge.

Elevation Burger was OK the last time I went with some friends. It seems like they're trying to be like In-n-Out but without the simple menu. The shakes are fine, and the burgers/fries are fine. Just some of the people working there copped an attitude with some of the other customers, and that I didn't like. YMMV.

This is a pretty good dining guide! Have you considered submitting it to Katsu and Magfest for use on their site,too? :)

I've thought about it and plan to do it this weekend to both. I don't know what either group will say.

That McD's is a bit of a hike from the Gaylord. If the map on Google is right, it's at the base of the off/on-ramp from the Beltway, most likely the first thing you'll see once you exit the Beltway. It will still be busy most likely, but a bit of a hike still

Oh - here's another tip. Some of these restaurants have call-ahead or online ordering. USE THIS. It will save you a lot of headaches.
