The option that's more expensive than the other.

Sure, they're not priced like a Michelin Starred restaurant. Sure a few sitdown restaurants have also raised their prices (especially popular chains), but the comparison is McD's vs "another local burger joint". While Five Guys and Red Robin might not be cheaper than McD's, they're also not a local burger joint!

I'd also argue they're not trying to compete with McD's, while McD's is competing with them on price.
