| I believe in the principle of Due Process  |
I was on one of my rare these days outings this week, and while driving through a new developing shopping area, spotted a Five Guys hamburger joint next to the recently opened Panera, across the street from the Whataburger. What’s the scoop on these? Any good? Really good? Don’t bother? Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | ||

The fries are fresh. The burgers nothing remarkable IMHO, but not bad either. I wouldn't turn down some onion rings or a shake if someone walked in right now with one either.... You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

A bit overpriced for me. I don't see them as better than in and out burger. Five Guy's fries are very good, though. | |||

They are known for the burgers and they are very good. But I always get the bacon cheese hot dog. It's awesome and I don't eat hot dogs very often. It's worth a try for sure. | |||

Usually get twice the fries one guy could eat, unless you are a college athlete. NRA Life Endowment member Tri-State Gun collectors Life Member | |||

Burgers are ok and are overpriced, fries are ok; they're definitely a step above MCD/BK/Wendy's. ...let him who has no sword sell his robe and buy one.

IMO, the burgers at Five Guys are pretty good. I always get the large bacon cheese burger. And I like the free peanuts to nibble while waiting for my order. Serious about crackers | |||

| That is my spot. |
Agree with all of the above. Lots of topping options. We have a local joint and a BurgerFi that I like better but if you wan a lot of fries, 5Guys! ***************** Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. - Ben Franklin | |||

Not bad at all. Definitely worth trying if you've never been there. Take a friend or spouse and get one order of fries for the two of you to share. No way do you each want a full order of fries. You can get almost anything and everything on the burger, however you like it. ------------------ SBrooks | |||

I'll tak Fudruckers over Five Guys anyday  He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. | |||

Apples to oranges. Fudruckers competes with sit-down themes places like Red Robin, The Burger Joint, The Counter, Smashburger... To OP, 5-Guys is better than most fast-food places, competes with In'n Out, Whataburger, Shake Shake while annihilating traditional theme places like McDonald's, Burger King, Jack-In-The-Box. Besides fresh produce and meat, you can have added a variety of toppings, on top of the standard. Peanuts are free. Just keep in mind, their standard cheeseburger is a double-patty. | |||

A regular cheeseburger is actually a double cheeseburger. A regular french fry is enough fries for three people. I get a little cheese burger (Which is a normal cheeseburger everywhere else) and a little french fry (which is enough for two people to share) Im a big guy, 300+ pounds, and the normal size portions are HUGE. I there is no way I could eat a normal size burger and normal size fry there. I have to order the smallest size and still leave plenty full... They have the best fast food french fries in the business, in my opinion. The burgers are OK. Not great, not gross, just average. ______________________________________________________ Often times a very small man can cast a very large shadow | |||

Burgers are really good, but over-priced, IMO. It's around $8 JUST for the burger. They are not that big. The fries are excellent, as has been stated. After they put the fries in the bag, they dump a bunch more on top. Fear God and Dread Nought Admiral of the Fleet Sir Jacky Fisher | |||

Little bacon cheese burger for me with a small fry. I think their burgers are very good. The fries are even better. Nick "I cannot imagine any condition which would cause a ship to founder.

Burgers are pretty good. Enough fries to choke a horse. If you want to pretend to be healthy the'll actually put your burger in a lettuce wrap. Train how you intend to Fight Remember - Training is not sparring. Sparring is not fighting. Fighting is not combat. | |||

We don't have whataburger around here so I don't have anything to compare it to but in my book five guys is good to go. I have the heart of a lion.......and a lifetime ban from the Toronto Zoo.- Unknown | |||

I don't find that to be the case, but everyone's different. The Hot Dogs and shakes are really good there as well. Again, you can get it your way, with tons of options. My wife really likes the chocolate-banana-peanut butter shake, with bacon.  I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself. | |||
