One category. One action. Based on the LA Burger/QSR reference signal for March 2026.
In current LA direct-order menus, core cheeseburger and smash burger pricing clusters around the mid-$9 to low-$11 range. If your double-patty burger is still priced around the low-to-mid $8 range while carrying cheese, sauce, and premium inputs, this is the clearest category to review first.
