Five Guys Burgers and Fries

Great burgers, free toppings, free peanuts, delicious French fries in a bag, a Coke machine that allows you to customize your drinks. Same as all the rest.
This store is better than the rest, which are all very good. It is in an up and coming transit oriented development area near the Harrison PATH Station. The staff are unbelievably friendly. The punch your parking ticket so parking in a enclosed parking deck very close by is free.
GREAT PLACE, I frequent often.

First of all, the burger and fries were pretty tasty. On the other hand, the only kind of cheese you can have on your burger is Kraft singles. And i don’t like the way you have to hang out by the counter until your burger is done. Also, who wants a brown paper bag full of fries? Another thing is that the bright lights and glaring white walls are a little jarring, like an operating room. Finally, the VERY LOUD 70’s/80’s arena rock soundtrack was unbearable (and bizarre). This place is for you if you love Styx or REO Speedwagon.

Excellent customer service. Clean and most importantly great food. They will make sure you are comfortable.

I have been hearing about this place for a while and finally tried. Great burger, much better than any fast food burger. More expensive though. Ordered 4 burgers and 3 large fries and was $ 45. Learned that the large fries are giant and come in a large paper cup more than enough for 3 people.

Simple menu featuring mainly burgers and fries. Very reasonable prices. No bs place with lots of topping choices. Fries are always hot and fresh. Friendly staff — This place never disappoints!

Probably the best burger place in the area. The staff is nice and the place is really clean. Not only are the burgers fresh but they never load them up with grease like other places. They are very consistent and I have never had a bad burger from here.

I don’t understand all the hype. This is a place that lives on a reputation but falls short. The burgers are good, not great just good, the fries are limp and greasy and the staff is not welcoming. The restaurant is by no means comfortable, the music is so load you can’t hear the person sitting across from you and again the food is ok but far from the 5 stars it’s received

First visit to this Five Guys, but the second I walked through the inner glass doors I felt at home. The now familiar white and red ceramic tile walls, high top deuce tables, and open flame broiled grease kitchen, put me at ease and ready to enjoy the ultimate American comfort food — the greaseburger deluxe.
The compromises I make to have fun, yet maintain a modicum of dietary integrity, is to skip the cheese (which I really don’t taste on these badboys), and look for the unsweetened ice tea (don’t want all that useless sugar). What’s left is still a hot mess of burger, sautéed onions, jalapenos and ketchup. Oh, and all that tasty grease that brings it all together.
The brown bag fries are more than I can finish, but I have learned to ask for extra burnt nibs, those small pieces of potato that fry to a crisp. I love them. Sometimes the fry guy can get at them and dump some into the bag; sometimes not. I appreciate the effort on my special request.
Now that I know this joint is only ten minutes from the office, I am set for my great tasting, yet fast not quite casual burger fix.

Five Guys is kind of an expensive fast-​food restaurant, but definitely a classic. I really enjoyed the Malt Vinegar they have to dip the fries in. The service was fast and the girl working the register was very friendly, patient and helpful. Pleasant experience.

I LOVE Five Guys! I was so happy to learn there is one close to our house (but not too close as that would mean I would be there daily!!). I don’t usually crave meat (and in fact hardly ever eat it) but I have had Five Guy cravings and have never been disappointed! The Little Cheeseburger is plenty for me (1 patty) and stacked with veggies is a perfect meal. They also have hot dogs and a veggie sandwich but I always get the cheeseburger.
I can’t sing enough praises for Five Guys!

Simple, delicious burgers paired with some of the best fries out there. When I clicked «check-​in» today I couldn’t believe I had never checked in here before, as this is a regular go-​to for my family.
PROS
The most important thing first: Five Guys burgers are wonderful. They are not gourmet. They are not fancy. They come wrapped in foil in a brown paper bag, and I love it. A standard burger comes with two patties (about ¼ lb each I would guess) that are cooked when you order, so they are hot and juicy. You can get cheese and bacon (which, of course you should), and any of a host of topping choices. (For my money, the best is a bacon cheeseburger with mayo, mushrooms, and hot sauce) The «little» option gives you a single patty.
Fries. So many fries. A regular order is plenty for my wife and I; today we didn’t even finish all of them. Of course, that isn’t because they aren’t delicious, because they are. Fresh-​cut, dropped into the fryer when you order, with just a dusting of salt. These fries are the perfect side to the perfect burger.
Other great things: Open boxes of in-​shell peanuts to munch on while your burgers and fries are prepped. This location has a Coke Freestyle machine, which means tons of fun drink combinations. The staff here is on top of their game; they work fast and get orders perfectly right all the time.
CONS
There isn’t much here to be honest. Yeah, it is more fast food than fine dining. Yeah, this isn’t health food. Sometimes when it is crowded it can take a while. Beyond that? Not much.
OVERALL
If you haven’t been to Five Guys before, do yourself a favor and check them out soon. If you are like me, they will quickly become your go-​to burger place.

HANDS down the juiciest, freshest, and tastiest hamburgers this side of New Jersey. I mean these lip-​smackers will knock your taste buds into the next universe! First they immediately slap 2 fresh (not frozen) patties on the grill for you, and it comes with 2 slices of American cheese on fresh buns with ample choices of free toppings.
Decent serving of fries you can easily split them with someone making it more of a value and less of a bloated lunch. Also free refills on the sodas (if you’re real thirsty) and unlimited free peanuts. Who does that? Yes peanuts, salted, in the shell to snack on while you wait, like boxes of them.
My favorite is mushrooms, bacon-(extra cost), and BBQ sauce but there will always be a wait of about 5 minutes because Five Guys is always poppin! A full meal with extra topping (bacon, etc.) will run you about 13+dollars. Personally, All I need is the burger, small fries and small drink (if I could have it my way), and call it 10 bucks even and they’d get a 5^th star from me.
Honestly, the price you’ll pay for a numbered special (fries and a drink) off the menu of a fast food place, in comparison just the burger at five guys, at around 8 bucks, will not only fill you more, but will taste so much better. They nailed it with the double cheeseburger concept, instead of a huge fat burger, they went the juicy route. It works.
PS~a drive-​thru would be a great. But then they probably couldn’t market the fries and soda — (their only other products, really).
PSS~~think they should add these items to the menu: Jalapeño Poppers, Onion Rings, Tempura Broccoli, Corn Fritters, Jumbo Fried Shrimp, Chicken Fingers, Spicy Seasoned Fries, Cole Slaw

Went here with my girlfriend on 4÷19÷14…
Service was excellent as it always is at this location…
The service and food is always good here…

Grease grease and more grease. Not my idea of a great burger. In n Out has them beat by a mile.

When we’re in the mood for some burgers, and it’s not too late in the evening, we usually come here. The burgers taste fresh, and you can even get them without a bun, wrapped in lettuce or in a bowl for the gluten or carb-​conscious crowd. The food is reliably good, and the french fries a-​plentiful (seriously, they give you a LOT of french fries). The staff is friendly, and very attentive to allergies (the persons preparing your food will change gloves if you tell them you have an allergy). They also have those neat Coca-​Cola machines with a plethora of options («jefe, what is a plethora?»). This is all why my wife and I keep coming back.

Bag full of fries and a juicy home style burger!

I heard about these guys from several friends and I finally made the visit.
Upon walking in, the first thing I see is big bags of Peanuts which are provided for free as sort of an appetizer. This gave it a real cool factor in my eyes. The menu is nice and simple, but when it comes to toppings, they have a lot to offer. I ordered the regular burger (which is 2 patties) with bacon, cheddar, and mushrooms.
I must say, this is probably the best burger I’ve had in years. The bacon was cooked just right, nice and crispy. The burger just melted in your mouth. My friends and I also split a basket of Cajun fries, also an excellent choice.
As far as cost goes, it’s on the high end for a burger joint, but well worth it in my opinion. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves a great burger.

After going here a number of times now I am going to have to quickly downgrade this place to 2 stars for the following reasons:
A) The staff is just not friendly and outgoing like they are in some 5 Guys. Examples:
— I don’t really hear anyone yell «xx {number of people} in the door» when you walk in
— I get a mumble of a «thank you» for a quietly yelled «tip in the jar»
— When you order is ready i get a very quiet «Number 55» etc.
In other 5 guys people talk loudly, clear, and you feel like your business is truly appreciated. Here I feel like they hired all kids just out of high school working for the summer and are only working there because they «need gas money»
B) The food isn’t cooked as well as other 5 Guys. Burgers don’t have that slight crispiness and almost taste like a good burger I could make at home. Fries are soggy — perhaps the oil is old? I also find it odd that for the first time at a 5 Guys I could «taste the bun». I wonder if its a slightly older roll they are trying to get rid of or something.
C) The music is way too damn loud. Music is fine but this ain’t a concert hall. Once again I wonder if its the teenagers that work here thinking its OK to turn it up cause the owner may not be around.
Anyway, go visit it for yourself… but having been a number of times now… and working in between the two locations in the area — I will quickly go to the one in Ewing before I visit this one again.

This place is the BEST! I have been to the Five Guys in Woodbridge Mall and this one is better! After reading the first review I was so excited to know there was a Five Guys so close to my home. Since this place is new it is clean and very fast. When we arrived there was a long line, but the employees knocked it out in no time. They do have those great peanuts to munch on though while you wait. The burger are large and juicy, with all the toppings you could want. Since they only have burgers, fries, hotdogs and drinks they do what they do well, I you like a great homemade type burger then Five Guys is for you.

I have been waiting for this place to open for months. My wife and I are huge fans of Fives Guys and have never been disappointed by any of their locations. The Hamilton location did not let us down. Great fries, great burgers, great hot dogs, and those fancy new Coke product machines that let you mix flavors and what not. My suggest, bacon cheeseburger with mushrooms, onions, and bbq sauce.
Good luck Burger King, the «exciting new things» are happening across the parking lot.
