It certainly is a different burger than that of In N Out. But whether Five Guys provides a better burger for it's price range is debatable. I'm still trying to figure out what the gleaming reivews here are for. One bite and like some have critized, reminded me of a burger from Wendy's. The burger has some pretty good heft and comes with a variety of options that come for free tho.
You get a pretty good portion of steak fries in a cup, I'd say enough for 2 in fact, but maybe managers should tell the high-schoolers to monitor their temps on the fryolator a wee bit better cause the huge deal breaker for me were the poor, limp, oily "Cajun" fries in a cup. Hell, maybe add a Sixth Guy. What good are the fries when they're soggy from the gate?
I would've liked a shake or some type of beverage exclusive only to Five Guys to wash down my food down aside from the usual fountain drink suspects. So maybe they were having a bad day on a slightly packed Thursday evening. I'm willing to give them another shot, they certainly didn't do any wrong but didn't knock my socks off either.
