| - When I mention Five Guys to a group of my friends, they just could not stop ranting, raving, O-M-Ging and everything in between. I thought to myself. "For reals?" No way.
Let's get down to business. I got myself a bacon cheeseburger, regular fries, and a drink. $11 bucks. I thought it was pretty pricey, especially when I could drive a little bit and grab myself a double double animal style, fries, and a drink for 6 bucks at IN-n-OUt.
The order came out in a paper bag and you could see the grease spots all over it. Yum. I opened the paper bag only to find a mountain of fries just piled inside. The burger was what I was most looking forward to. I opened the aluminum wrapper like it was a Christmas present, carefully and slowly, to see the steam of the fresh hand packed, juicy, double bacon cheese burger staring right back at me and begging for mercy as I was about to double fist the burger into my salivating mouth. One bite was all it took. The endorphins were rushing through my brain and all that I uttered under my breath was... O-m-g.
The fries though, left much to be desired. Hence, the one star deduction. It wasn't all that they were cracked up to be. It was a bit bland and soggy. There is really nothing worse than taking a bite of a juicy burger only to bite into a soggy fry right afterwards. It ruins the experience. I don't care that much for soggy fries, it was truly a let down.
Overall, minus 1 for the fries, plus 5 for the burger. Oh and the peanuts you can eat while waiting. Five guys is going to be a success in Vegas. I can't wait to see them grow and go back again for their delectable burger.
