I was honestly a little skeptical on taking another trip to flavortown. My first visit was at Tex Wasabi in Cali and was bummed about the trip. We just so happened to be famished from all of the running around that the NASCAR fan week had us do so needless to say that we were ready to head in for a refuel (silly pun).
For starters we ordered the Triple T fries
They weren't kidding around with the description. This dish was LOADED with truffle essence! To my surprise the Gouda cheese (which I am not a fan of; sorry it an Asian thing) that topped the fries did not overpower the dish but gave it a nice gooey accent. Good Job Guy!
For the main event I ordered the "Mayor of Flavortown"
A HUGE patty (overkill on the meat to bun ratio) topped with pastrami and all of the fixins on a pretzel bun! Think of it as Sammy's Pastrami burger's 6' tall dressed dressed up Sasquatch of a cousin.
I cheated and got a side of Bourbon BBQ sauce to slather on this monster. The Bourbon burn really comes through giving it a nice burn to accompany the tang. It was a prefect add-on for the burger. Sorry Guy, The burger was good the way your created it BUT BBQ Sauce makes everything better..
The burger was well put together, most importantly; it could be eaten like a burger. Too often when you get giant burgers, they don't hold up well and you end up having to fork and knife it. To me this kills the "burger" experience so this is why I bring it up...
The burger was also served with a "small" side of the quad fries; aptly named for the location and the 4 kinds of fries...This was overkill as we had more than half of our 3T fries..
Don't balk at the $18/17 price tag as you get more than your money's worth with this monstrosity of a sandwich.
Service was decent; I value that our server gave us his honest opinions on the food and made real suggestions.
The one knock if any that I will give this place is that all of the food was a bit on the salty side. No biggie for us BUT it is noticeable. We came for flavor town not the salt mine.
Anyhow Guy's is near the top of my list of INSANE CHEAT MEALS

Don't forget to bring your Total Rewards players card; it will save you a dollar on everything you order.
Ask for extra BBQ sauce! You can never have enough sauce!
