| - When Five Guys opened down here, my wife and I were thrilled to give it another chance. We'd tried it once before, at a different location, and we'd not been impressed. Now that we've been able to truly try it, we're in love. It's not on the same level as an In-N-Out burger for me, but it's close.
The layout of the restaurant is pretty bad, honestly. I couldn't imagine actually eating here because it is so claustrophobic. We always use the smart phone app to order our food ahead of time, which is super easy and convenient, and then we just check in at the register and our food is ready as soon as our freshly dropped fries come out of the fryer.
The fries aren't crispy - so if that's your thing, go elsewhere. But if you don't mind slightly soggy fries, either seasoned with salt or Cajun seasoning (a little bit of a kick!), you'll be in love.
The burgers are straight-forward enough, with plenty of options of sauces (A1, BBQ, ketchup, mustard). We like getting ours in a bowl, for ease of eating. I like taking mine home and customizing it a bit with some feta cheese and balsamic glaze, but that's just me.
If you want fast food and are disenchanted with other places, give Five Guys a chance to make you happy. If all fails (which it shouldn't), their Coke Freestyle machine is sure to please anybody with its 80 kajillion options (by my personal estimate).
