I have one of those down the street from my house. Not impressed at all. The burgers are very mediocre. Im not saying it was bad but it was so hyped up when they came to enfield and it turned out to be no better than an wendies burger and it was expensive as hell. a meal that is actually satisfying from them is about 12-15$. I could easily go to an olive garden and get a decent dinner for that.

My 5-guys story:

First time having 5-guys? Washington DC. For $10 we got a huge entire bag filled will fries, I got a double cheeseburger with bacon and other toppings and my woman got herself a cheeseburger with some toppings. We had waters to drink.

Not bad - $5 / piece and with the free peanuts & huge bag of fries, we actually had leftovers. I'm 6'6" and 265 lbs so I can put away some food. I was full.

Then, they came to Chicago (about 35 minute drive)! We were stoked - affordable, big amounts of food, great burgers... we couldn't wait. We went to the first one that opened!

It was about $20+ for both of us this time. We had a little 'tray' of fries and each had a double burger. We weren't full. The burgers were mediocre. We were crushed. Must be the location (shitty hood).

Another opened up about 10 mins from our house - sweet! This one would surely be better. We went. Same inflated, super high prices, mediocre food and lack of any real 'filling'. The fries were once again far from 'a ton', but that small little tray.

Another opened up in another town about 35 mins away in a different direction. I was at a clients that day and decided to try them. I paid $15 for JUST ME - for 1 burger, fries and a drink. I was NOT even CLOSE to full. The food was average at best.

I'll never, ever go back to a 5-guys unless it's in the DC area. Other than that - they're shit.

I smother my 5 guys in everything I can, I think it's pretty tasty with BBQ sauce and Jalapenos. I do get a ton of fries though, I haven't seen the "little tray" yet. The place near my work does the medium drink cup full of fries plus another scoop into the bag with my burger, I feel like I'm eating an endless amount of fries. Unfortunately, the fries aren't even that tasty unless you add some of the malt vinegar they have and dip them in fry sauce.

Anyhoo, it comes down to about $15~20 for just myself and honestly, it's just not worth that much.
