All American Drive-In
This is exactly the kind of article that I treasure AHT for. I will be checking out All American the next time I am in that area.

@Nick, I'm only 31, but it's starting to show, and my sole concession (thus far) to fighting the bulge is switching to light beer. It's not helping very much, so I might have to try it your way. My wife doesn't eat the crusts either, just because she says they aren't really pizza. I guess it's just different ways of eating pizza. Me, I always eat the crust, sometimes dipped in melted butter. Mmmm.
@larrydallas, judging by your attacks lately, you seem to have some kind of personal issue with me, so I'm just going to be the bigger person and politely ignore you from now on ;)

@ratbuddy I don't know how old you are but when you are fighting (and losing) the battle against middle aged spread as I am you have to pick your calories. I am not saying the crust on the pizza I eat is inedible, far from it in fact since I only eat artisan pizza from the likes of Co and Una, but it is also very filling. And lets face it if pizza was all about crust it would not have any toppings at all.

"Shame on you, throwing out pizza crusts.. If it's inedible, so is the rest of the pie....."
Professor ratbuddy, please continue on with your grammar lesson.

"I generally discard them as I would a rib bone or pizza crust."
Shame on you, throwing out pizza crusts.. If it's inedible, so is the rest of the pie.....

Made the drive to the South Shore to try this place and it was worth it. Going at 1pm on a Saturday the place was packed. Here is a hint, only have one person go in and order.
I had the Double Double (double cheeseburger) and my wife had the regular cheeseburger. As Nick pointed out in his article, the burgers reminded you of a McDonalds but when you bite into you can taste the difference.
The bun at All American has a nice soft and fresh taste while at McD the bun has that left out on the counter overnight type of hardness. The double double does have that perfect meat to bun ratio and the patties have that hint of fresh homemade taste.
The fries are definitely worth it. Ordered a large for my wife and I to share, we should have had a large each. Skin on hand cut fries which were right out of the fryer.
Milkshakes were just average, definitely not on the level of a Hildebrants. It lacked that homemade taste and it was similar to all the other fast food places that pour that huge plastic bag of liquid into the milkshake machine.

I grew up in Massapequa and have been going here since it opened. This is the place to go for a good burger. The quality has not changed. The best thing are the french fries. Made fresh daily. You can see them peeling and cutting them in the back of the store. I think most Massapequa high school kids had a part time job there. Man am I hungry. I feel a road trip coming on...

Hey, you got it right. I've been going here all my life. There is nothing that matches it. I got mad when my meals started to hit the $5 mark.
You should get the large fries next time. 40 cents more but more than double the fries.
that lady at the counter has been there for a long time. I love that lady.
