I like the burgers- they are good, but not great.

WAAAYYYY overpriced- $12 for a burger, small drink, and small fries? C'mon, man.

The fries are soggy. They give you a LOT, but you are also paying a lot for them (like $2.50 for a "small").

And totally agree about the time- it should not take them 5-7 minutes (or longer) to make me a burger and small fries when they arent very busy.

It's a place to go like 2 or 3 times a year.

EDIT: I have only been 3 times to the Carrollton location since it opened, and this is the only location I've been to in Louisiana (went a few times to one in Tampa a few years ago, but pretty much the same results).

That's how long it takes to make them juicy and well done.

Has anyone asked for crispy fries a la crispy fingers at Cane's?

I think that might make it a little better.

Call me weird, but I think 5 Guys has some of the best fries around. Eat one of their fries and then eat another fast food's fry, the authenticity of the 5 Guys fry will knock your left sock off.

Agree on the price, but it's actually nothing compared to other "burger bars" I've been to

Went to a new one in Dallas last month and a speciality burger and truffle fries was $20 with a water

It was orgasmic though
