Washington Eatery Named 'Best Fast-Food Restaurant' In The State

Fast food can take out a lot of the work that comes with planning a full meal, but just because a fast-food restaurant may be a convenient and often more cost-effective option doesn't mean you have to compromise on flavor or a meal that packs a punch.

Using reviews, awards and accolades as well as first-hand experience, LoveFood compiled a list of the restaurant in each state that serves the best fast food, from "fabulous no-frills food trucks [to] hole-in-the-wall gems, and mom-and-pop restaurants."

According to the site, the best fast-food restaurant in all of Washington is Katsu Burgers, which serves a unique burger that "fuses Japanese and American goodness," per the restaurant's website. Katsu Burger's has multiple locations around Washington. Find your nearest one by visiting the website .

Here's what LoveFood had to say about the best fast-food restaurant in the entire state:

"If you're going to mess with a fast food classic, there had better be a pretty good reason for it — and, fortunately, Katsu Burger, with three restaurants in Seattle and several others in the surrounding areas, has found one. The joint marries the classic American burger with katsu, the Japanese technique involving coating food in panko breadcrumbs and frying. The burgers come with a range of fusion toppings, and customers say they're delicious, perfectly cooked, and huge."
