Nice try, Local Burger Joint Owner.

In all seriousness, the couple times I've had Five Guys it was just average. I prefer Backyard Burger over Five Guys, but I'll take Five Guys over most of the fast food places.

Try a chili dog next time you are at Backyard Burger. They make a nice one.

I've never had Five Guys but Backyard Burger was trash and barely stayed open a couple years in Lafayette.

I think this is the best characterization of the OP. I was seriously disappointed at the non disaster presented here.

And who exactly is overrating and hyping Five Guys? All of their own hype is from local newspapers and magazines and we all know how suspect and advertiser influenced those are. When they are talked about here you have 3 groups of people.

1. Don't like the burgers
2. HATE the fries
3. Good but not great, a step above lowest common denominator fast food chains.

Where is this alleged hype? The only thing over hyped about Five Guys is the hype.
