| - When it comes to fast food burgers, Five Guys is at the top of my list!
Once you walk in, you're instantly greeted by a pretty loud roar from all the employees..."THREE IN THE DOOR!". You can then make your way towards the line of potatoes and grab some free peanuts to munch on while waiting for your food. There's only a few choices and the burgers can be ordered with any number/combination of toppings you choose. The fries come in a few sizes but even the smallest can be shared as you end up getting a bag full anyway.
When it comes to the burger, I can't think of any fast food burger in town that I like more. I get mine somewhat simple and order the bacon double with grilled onions & mushrooms, mustard, jalapenos and extra cheese. When they make it right, which they usually do, this is a ridiculously good burger. The meat is tender, juicy, flavorful and reminds me of a homemade, grilled burger. For a fast food joint, the toppings always seem extremely fresh and they have really good jalapenos. The fries are also super tasty, both the Five Guys style and Cajun style.
As a fast food spot, they'd easily deserve 5 stars if the prices weren't so high. It's not hard to spend over $20 for two people, even when sharing fries and a drink. But they do have good food, their employees always seem friendly and helpful, plus they have the cool soda machines which are fun to use. I'm a Five Guys fan and will continue to come back when I'm craving a good burger!
