Here we go again. Another overrated burger joint. Five Guys was everything I dislike in a restaurant!!!
5 Gripes about 5 Guys Burger and Fries:
1. The lighting- Did you gain inspiration from an operating room? Who wants to eat under a spotlight? Disturbingly too bright! It actually made me uncomfortable. The music was also way too loud to have a conversation. That's when the peanuts came in handy...
2. The Peanuts- We aren't elephants or at the circus, stadium or bar so I don't get it! Just made me thirsty.
3. The staff- There were entirely too many employees standing behind the counter goofing off and doing nothing. You would think between the six of them as a team they could have managed to get my order right. FAIL.
4. The burger- A backyard BBQ burger at best. Unoriginal. While that's not a bad thing it was just missing the WOW factor for me. It was good, but nothing I can't recreate in the comfort of my own home.
5. So I lied. I only have 4 gripes about 5 Guys Burgers=)
Overall there was nothing appealing at all about this place. The combination of the bright lights, loud music and mediocre food was very disappointing. 5 Guys has officially been voted off of my island and out of the circle of trust. Sashay away.
