Five Guys Burgers and Fries

This is a delayed review. I took my grown kids and our little grand niece to this place on Christmas Eve 2015 — it was my oldest son’s suggestion. I’m glad I listened to him for a change… :)
Seriously though, this is only the third time I’ve been to a Five Guys, but the first time at this particular location. The place is exceptionally clean, the service was spot on, and the food (as usual) will stuff you to the hilt. If you haven’t had enough of your burger then you can gorge on fries all day long, if you like. The décor is airy and clean and we had a great time talking the folks working there that day — the Christmas ‘spirit’ was certainly in the air.

The first time we were here I would have given this place a 4 – 5 star rating. This time more like a 2 or 3 tops. Burger was fine, fries had been re-​fried so many times they were hard and the place was dirty. The woman’s restroom was just nasty.
To be fair I did not complain or give them the opportunity to make more fries, just figured I shouldn’t be eating them anyway.

Forgot to make our order and skipped our number… bad service! Didn’t care to apologize.

Meh, burgers are good but really pricey. Was not impressed with fries. Food was pretty quick, but we were the only ones in there. I could see things getting really backed up. 2 burgers, fries and and drink was close to $ 20. That’s too much money for a burger

Legit burgers! You want healthy? Go to Pita Pit (also wonderful). Big ass burgers with all the fixin’s is the way to go. A NOVA original. Soooo goooood. And they have one of those fancy Coca Cola machines.

Five Guys still puts out the best burgers I’ve ever had, but… prices at this favorite are creeping up. Be careful Five Guys, we can easily go to a full service restaurant for just a few bucks more. Changing rating from 5 to 4

Five Guys here is your typical Five Guys. The food is always good and consistent. I always get the hot dog. It’s clean and there’s nice outdoor seating.

We tried this place because of so many rave reviews about 5 guys in general.
I guess I didn’t see any reason for such rave reviews. It seemed overpriced and stark to me.
To each his own, I guess.

Best burgers and fries around. Décor is no frills but kept clean and neat and staff is friendly & efficient. A bit pricey, however.

This 5 Guys is in a great location with plenty of shopping around and some other activities for the family. There’s a nearby park as well. The «guys» behind the counter are good at their job and there is plenty of space inside and some limited seating out the back door.
The food is exactly what you expect from a 5 Guys if you’ve been to one before. If you’ve never been to one, here are some recommendations:
(1) Order the junior burgers unless you’re bringing a large appetite. They’re plenty big at the smaller size. The jr comes with one patty and the regular one comes with 2 patty’s. Huge!
(2) The same goes with the fries. I usually go after after my son’s football games and he’s raging hungry. I have ordered the larger size for 3 people (2 adults and one 8-​yr old) and we have struggled to finish that. I made the mistake of ordering a large by myself one time and it makes a meal by itself at that size. Since they throw the fries in the bag too, you’ll have plenty of fries.
(3) Look the menu over so you know your toppings before you order and step to the side while you do it. This place has a lot of returning customers and they do know what they want so be courteous.

the equivalent of CA’s «In n Out» way overpriced but delicious.

Having moved from LA, I felt a horrible sense of loss over In n Out Burger. Then 5 guys opened here and everyone said it was the east coast equivalent of in n out. Well, not quite. I still miss my Double Doubles, but this place is a fair second place, causing me to miss in n out a little less.
