I like this place a lot better than In-N-Out which seems to be the popular litmus test of burger joints. The thing is that I don't really care for In-N-Out.
Five guys makes pretty much the same burger that you could make at home if you were not a lazy person.
When this place opened two coworkers had an epic two hour argument about In-N-Out vs. 5-guys. It was crazy.
I don't understand the hype. I am convinced that it is because it has been so long since most people have had a real fresh handmade burger. Most of the time when you go to someones pool-party/bbq they pull out the frozen burger patties. We are so used to frozen processed food that when some place gives us decent fresh food we go nuts.
Also don't go here if you are allergic to peanuts.
