Default Five Guys Burgers And Fries

Hands down, hands down, the best burger and fries I have ever had.

Anyone out there that has this place within a half hour or so make it a point to stop in for grub.

5 Guys is much better than In & Out Burger IMO. Best burger in Cali is Hodad's in Ocean Beach, CA just outside of San Diego.

I confess that I haven't been to 5 guys here in Atlanta...but people I talk to say it's way over-priced.

Not for the quality I am sold on this place big time. That was my initial thought looks expensive but what you are getting in return is worth it.

5 guys is overrated. Haven't tried Hodad's, but will keep that in mind. Best burger I've had is the double at Habit in downtown Santa Barbara. Walk-up joint. Chargrilled. Fantastic.

Five Guys burgers are much better than In-Out Burgers. Though In-Out does have the second best drive through burgers (first is Backyard Burgers).

They've got a bunch of them, all over the city, but I honestly don't care for the place, the store is just too greasy for me (the floor is slippery). Try a burger at a Times Grill.

Back in the day, there was a burger place in LA named something like Cassellis, or Cassells, that served up a 1/2 pound burger made from cuts of ground prime rib beef.

Kind of a waste, but man, that was a great burger.

Love them as well, especially those fries cooked in the peanut oil, they are the best!
