Ate there once about a year ago. Friend raved about it. I thought it was ok but not enough to go back. There are better options for a good burger....obviously.



I rank it much higher than five guys, but you are correct, it is not a gourmet burger...

Five Guys is definitely over hyped. I guess the simple, plain decor is suppose to imply all their attention is focused on the burgers. They need to focus harder.

The lesson here is never get exited about a chain restaurant that got its start above Tennessee.

1) Read your posts before you click submit. The second sentence makes zero sense.

2) Why don't you make a thread about your first time visiting Taco Bell?

a burger not cooked temperature is not worth eating. That being said, way too many places do not know how to cook to temperature.

He sounds like that idiot, Morgan Spurlock that made himself throw up in Super Size Me after he ate a double Quarter Pounder.

Burgers are good. Fries are meh.

Not a huge fan of receiving a soggy paper bag full of fries. You order a small and you get a pound of fries.

Their meat is flavorless and usually over fried to the point that the ends are burnt and crispy. The slice of tomato is the only decent tasting thing on the burger and it overpowers the taste of the meat. The cheese is processed "cheese food." It's garbage.

I'm sorry, but you're full of shite. Nauseous from five bites? No one can possibly be this pretentious. It's not the best, but it doesn't make you throw up.

Glad I'm not the only one. And the fries are even worse, soggy and swimming in a puddle of grease even while the pretentious handwritten note on the blackboard tells you the origins of the potatoes at Joe's Organic Spud Farm in East Jesus, Idaho.

Are you serious? Five Guys is fricking good considering the price and speed of it.

You should never eat at another fast food joint. I'm quite sure you would keel over and die upon entering said establishment.

I went to 5 Guys once. Overrated, but not bad by any means. A little better than your typical fast food burger, but people go apeshit over it for some reason

Nut seriously I think the reason for this is because of how simple it is. Everything is made to order and people love being able to control exactly what comes on their food
