Do they also have the sacks of stuff stacked in the dining area in all of their locations? We went the first day so I don't know if this is normal or if it was because it was the first day.

I kind of felt like i was eating in a warehouse or an unfinished restaurant.


Burger was good.

Gotta agree on the fries, the whole greasy bag thing is a turn off.

no love for the outback prime rib ?


Well I used to like it but a year or so ago we went to the one on Jones Creek and the place was a pig sty. I mean really really dirty and my prime rib was absolutely cold. Shame because I only would eat that so I'm done with Outback barring some reason I'm feeling like an Ethiopian and it's the only place open.

All their restaurants have bags of potatoes stacked everywhere. That's also their "thing" I guess.

I happen to love the burger and the fries -- though I would not waste money on cajun fries. They're just like the regular fries with Tony's on them.

If you like old school, homemade type fries this is definitley the place for you.

Ate at the one in Auburn over the weekend after the game, they had the sacks in the dining area there as well

The "cajun" fries tasted like they sprinkled crab boil on them

Burger is solid

Love five guys, one of the best burgers I've ever had. Their fries are ok but like a lot of you I prefer skinny fries

Five Guys: The large fries are about 1500 calories. The bacon cheese burger is almost 1000. That's a hefty meal at 2500 calories. You can't eat this shite every week. I'd forget the fries.

It is like that at the location near my house. Sounds like that is their thing, along with the peanuts.
