Five Guys is decent but overpriced. If you are gonna charge me 12$ for a combo I'll go to George's, Brewbachers, Akasha, etc. and get a better burger

I could not tell the difference in a Five Brothers burger and a Wendys burger in a taste test.


this. I was thinking the same thing. I think Wendys has better fries too.

For fresh cut fries at five guys they aren't great. I got the cajun fries, and there was nothing cajun about them.....at all, which brings me to a huge pet peeve. I hate when places use the word Cajun to imply it's going to be spicy or well seasoned...it never is

My first Five Guys burger experience was in New York from my time interning there, now those were some damn good burgers. Maybe it's a different taste and experience out here, but I haven't been to the ones in BR since I moved away.

I've tried Fuddruckers in Austin, In-N-Out in LA, Roul's/Akasha Market and I much prefer Five Guys, but to each their own. My biggest complaint lies with their prices....I mean c'mon.

I eat the burger and send my leftover fries to Sally Struthers.

You are such a bitter scorned woman over Five Guys. So they burn every burger they make but are expanding like crazy eh?

Five Guys is a premium fast food burger, that's it. I don't think anyone on here has ever claimed it's the best burger on the planet, it's just a step above what you get at BK, McD, etc. They do seem to feature toppings over the beef, and the fries are thick and tender rather than small and crispy, and both of those appear to be polarizing, love it or hate it choices. It's not that big of a deal and certainly not worth being so bitter over.

I used to go to Five Guys when they had ONE location in Arlington, Virginia. That was one fabulous hamburger because you could get any toppings you wanted at no extra charge, but most importantly their buns were baked locally and were more like dinner rolls.

Now they have franchised and destroyed their original product. Five Guys is not what it started out as. Don't dump 1/2 pound of French fries in the sack just give me a good burger.

Five Guys sucks.

I don't care what they say, Fuddrucker's burgers are legit.
