5 guys burgers?

[AlphaWolf24]

one of my boys recommended I try em'

then he sent me this>>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcJFdCmN98s

got too now..:confusedshrug:

[GOBB]

They are good burgers. Had a bacon cheeseburger earlier this week from there.

[Myth]

Not a big fan. They taste pretty good, but the cost/taste ratio is not worth it. I have had it only twice. Once to try it and once a few years later to see if my memory misguided me, but I had the same experience of it not seeming worth the cost.

[Myth]

Blasphemy

Give me an In-N-Out burger for half the cost any day of the week. Or better yet, make it a triple burger at In-N-Out for about the cost of a single patty at Five Guys.

[Jameerthefear]

They're pretty good.

[Crystallas]

The burgers are over-rated. You can buy better organic burger alternatives for less. But it's still a good burger, no reason to hate.

If you do go, the Cajun seasoned fries are addictive.

I do think the OP should try it. I give every burger place a shot.

This^^ Their pretty good. But a bit pricey. Also, they don't offer Combos...wtf?:biggums:

[COnDEMnED]

Is this available in California? I enjoyed the song :)

[baller562]

Yeah, they've been popping up here, at least in Souther Cali. It's good, pricier than In-n-out, and you can customize the burger adding a grip of toppings. But on a cost basis, In-n-out HANDS DOWN. Although I think their fries have been slipping recently, anyone notice their fries aren't as crispy... soggier recently?

I generally have always found In-N-Out fries underwhelming and usually soggy. It is rare when I find some crispy.

My favorite fast food burger joint. They're awesome. Hits the spot

I'm an In and Out person. Tried Five Guys a couple times, good burgers, like the choice of toppings and free peanuts but the price is a turnoff when I can drive another 5 minutes and have what I think is a better burger for half the price.

[L.Kizzle]

False advertisement.

When I went, there wasn't even 5 guys behind the counter. And, it was more women then dudes too.

:biggums:

[qrich]

In N Out >> Fatburger >> Monkeyburger >> WhatABurger >>>>>>>> 5ive Guys.

I remember hearing 5ive Guys was better than In N Out. Isn't even on the same level.

[TheMan]

Give me Carl's Jr any day.

[Psycho]

Fast food is the food of the obese. I am too good to partake in the consumption of such lowbrow cuisine.

[ace23]

Give me Carl's Jr any day.
Yup

damn, harsh. Five Guys is great stuff imo.

[Wang Zhi Zhi]

5 guys has goat burgers

[shadow]

In and out fries are not supposed to be crispy. Not my favorite either but that's their style.
On 5 Guys, I like their cheese dogs. Burger wise in n out is better imo and cheaper. Recently a chain called Habit is popping up all over the place and they make a good burger too, and again cheaper.

[LosScandalous]

being a person who has had both, many times.

In N' Out >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> five guys

it's not even close.

I've been too just about every In N Out on the west coast there has been constucted and I've never been disappointed. I've been to Five guys here, in the midwest and times sq and I always feel a little disapointed +my wallet is more lighter compared to In N' Out.

Cheeseburger and fries both animal style w/ a vanilla shake = god tier food :bowdown:

[ballup]

As a fast food joint, its burgers are tops in northeast.

This. In and out is half the price of five guys and is better tasting imo. Plus they have shakes. Damn I wish there was one in south florida. I ate there literally twice a day last time I was in California

[Fawker]

5 guys: 10 people frying big mac sized patties and hot dogs non stop, one cashier taking orders on what you want in it.

in & out: fresh to order. reject the food as much as you want.

[lefthook00]

5 Guys is really good and you can load the burgers up but it tastes like something I can make at home. In-N-Out is crack! Has a special taste. Smaller burgers but straight crack.

[MadeFromDust]

lol because of this thread I noticed one in my town where I've passed by plenty of times. Never heard of it before, weird

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

Give me an In-N-Out burger for half the cost any day of the week. Or better yet, make it a triple burger at In-N-Out for about the cost of a single patty at Five Guys.
i thought 5 guys used 2 patties on their sandwiches..

[Cali Syndicate]

Ask for them well done next time you're there.

[IamRAMBO24]

Steak and shake > 5 guys and inn and out

[hoopaddict08]

I still haven't tried them.

The best burger to me is the one I make at home with an asiago cheese bagel as the bun.

[Hoodlum Science]

I don't agree with this. I think the cost of their menu is quite fair, actually. Compared to a franchise like say Fuddruckers who's way overpriced for the product they're putting out, whereas Five Guys, yes they're charging more than a typical fast food or dine-in burger joint, but it's not exactly noticeably higher either.

In fact, the majority of consumers who frequently eat there would tell you the exact opposite. They'd tell you it's the best burger bang-for-buck they've ever had, and I personally agree. To me, it's the best burger I've ever had. We didn't recently get them here in North Carolina until only about 5 or so years ago. Since then, it's the only destination when I'm fiending for a burger.

Just out of curiosity ... since Five Guys is overpriced, what's a burger franchise you'd say is fairly priced?

[Hoodlum Science]

I keep hearing a lot about this "In-N-Out" joint - never heard of it - but you guys seem to be giving it positive reviews. I do find it hard to believe it's anything even in the same ballpark as Five Guys, because since I've had Five Guys, nothing, absolutely NOTHING has come even close. To each their own, sure, but there's just something about Five Guys that murders the competition.

Lots of folks who frequent there love the fries just as much, but I don't care much for 'em. I'm just a burger guy in general anyway. The only place where I equally enjoy the fries is McDonalds, and I rarely eat there to begin with. 85% of the time when I order food from a burger place, I'm just getting the burger without the fries.

In and Out is based in California. You won't find them in the east coast.

Oh well, guess I'm just out of luck. Since I'll likely never have In-N-Out, we'll just make it official and say Five Guys is # 1.

Are those mostly located in Texas? The place where there's more hamburger, cheeseburger or anything related to burger consumption in the entire world?

[secund2nun]

They are good. A bit overpriced and overrated though.

I keep hearing this overpriced comment. Honestly, it's not even all that pricey. If you're paying under $7.50 for a burger that's paramount in the taste department, is that really overpaying?

The people who think five guys is good are the ones who probably haven't tried In n out. The proportions are huge, but the flavor of their beef aren't as good, and then there is steak n shake, which is in a whole new ball park.

The good news is you'll probably more likely eat at a steak n shake before you have an inn n out burger since the chain originated in the east coast. It's fairly new, but once it's expansion is complete, the east will finally have a chain that's better than inn n out and exclusive to them.

[daily]

Steak and Shake is good, comparable to In and Out on the basic cheese burger with some more choices if you want more than a regular old cheeseburger, good prices too. They have one in Vegas we ate at on our way through. Bonus is they're building a few in Los Angeles as we speak.

[Hoodlum Science]

I've had Steak N Shake ... and it's dogsheet compared to Five Guys. So comparatively, In N Out is going to have to be deity burger status to break into Five Guys level of greatness. I just don't see it happening.

[IamRAMBO24]

Really? For each their own.

It's about the taste of the beef and the sauce that I rate in n out and steak n shake over five guys.

Sure if you like to stuff your face with bland greasy meat, then that's probably something you like. It's really hard to argue over something so subjective.

I'll give five guys a nod on their fries though. I think they are the best of the 3.

[MadeFromDust]

Ehhhhh sauces are way overrated. If it's about sauces then say best sauces not best hamburgers.

Basically everyone gets some ground meat, heats it up until it's not pink inside. So not one is better than the other unless yur a homer. Or stan. Or the gheys

[irondarts]

Good. But WAY overrated and overpriced.

In-N-Out is way better IMO.

Both steak n shake and in n out add flavoring to their burgers and their buns absorb the grease and are flavored with butter to make it much tastier.

There's nothing special about a 5 guys burger; all they do is take a slab of beef and a sesame bun and throw it all together with a bunch of vegetables.

[MadeFromDust]

Exactly my point. Only the gheys like flavoring and butter in their buns gross :rolleyes: :vomit:

[eliteballer]

Anyone had Smashburger?

Shit popped up out of nowhere by me. Its like a dozen locations opening up simultaneously. Haven't had it yet.



And another :facepalm for comparing this shite to In N Out.

I think both In n Out and Five Guys are great. I'd say In N Out has better burgers while Five Guys has better fries, but for me neither's as wide a margin as you and others in this thread say.

[IamRAMBO24]

Look at this carnivore trying to school me on food.
:facepalm

[Bucket_Nakedz]

pfft... tommy's in la over any fast food

[KNOW1EDGE]

It cracks me up that people act like IN N OUT has great burgers.lol. I was hyped to go there my first time in Arizona, me and a few friends went. The burgers were mediocre at best, I actually threw the fries in the garbage they were that bad. Maybe it was just a bad experience, but I have never gone back, and will never understand peoples obsession with their mediocre food and miniature menu. Sonic is better than that sh1t.

And 5 Guys is pretty good but overpriced. I like all their toppings though, and their fries are pretty good. Relatively small burgers tho.

Im not sure if its just a NW thing, but this spot Killer Burger has been popping up here and it is bomb. They make big burgers with good beef and a bomb special sauce. All burgers come standard with bacon. From 2-5, M-F they have their classic burger and bottomless fries for $5. Comes with bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion and a nice thick bun.

Tell me it wasn't in Tucson :oldlol: In N Out there is the worst I've had, though still tops 5ive Guys in the area.

The fries have always left a lot to be desired, which is why you have to get them Animal Style.

[qrich]

pfft... tommy's in la over any fast food

How could I forget Tommy's. Been so long.


As far as beaner joins with good burgers go, in L.A., Rigo's Taco :bowdown:

Or local joints...Lindsay's on 4th in Tucson are :bowdown:

It was in Gilbert, Arizona.

I drove to Gilbert from Portland, Oregon.

Literally, the first thing I did when I arrived that night, we went to In N Out, expecting it to be bomb, we were all hella hungry. We got home, started eating, and almost cried because we were so disappointed. we never went back.

Its been like 4 years, ill give it another chance next time I come across one.

[qrich]

Really? Only In N Out place in Gilbert I've stopped by was bomb. Might have either been a really bad experience, or you have no legit taste buds :D

[eliteballer]

Comparing Sonic to In N Out is like comparing Taco Bell to Chipotle. You're just full of crap.

I've been disappointed by five guys every time I've had it. It's nothing special and extremely overpriced.

In n Out is like a Chipotle version of a burger except it's 2 and a half bucks.

[BrooklynZoo]

Ive had Five Guys about 4 times and each time I wonder what the fuss is about.

You should've gone to fuddruckers, way better than inn n out and 5 guys. Tbh, 5 guys is massively overrated. At least inn n nout is open till 2am so its open after a long night of drinking. If u ever visit az again stop by Original Hamburger Works or Lennys Burger Shop, they have pretty good burgers

[DonDadda59]

5 guys is good shit but you know who makes a tasty burger? Red Robin. I ate at one when I was in the Philly area last year. I was all like

http://cdn.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/jules-burger.gif

Best fast food burger I've ever had was by far, by far at Steers in Durban, South Africa. It was unreal how good this goddamn burger was. It was so good I wanted to go to the back grill and slap the shit out of the cook for having the audacity to make a burger that delicious. Opened up the pandora's box of burgers.

Restaurant burgers are a whole different ballgame...you can go to Chilis and get a burger that will blow any fast food out of the water.

Heard good things about Culvers, some midwest chain.

[Turkododo]

Honestly, I had a Five Guys Burger and Fries not too long ago; and I had the worst gas I've ever had in my life.

The nastiest rankest smell came from the smallest, nearly silent farts.

It smelt like something died in my ass. It was horrid, but I couldn't stop smelling it to gauge the fart; to confirm it was the worst ever.

[tpols]

damn thread making me hungry as hell :rant

I dont have any good burger joints around my way.. no in n out, sonic is too far five guys is like 7 miles away.. not worth it. All we got is shitty mcdonalds burger king wendys etc. although this pretzel burger is da bomb:bowdown:

Forgot to mention culvers, definitely a great fast food burger, just had some this evening too. Not to mention they serve some good cie cream as well.

As far as fast food joints go, culvers is the best burger spot in az, inn n out and 5 guys cant compete.

I've been seeing Culvers left and right, got a shit load of buy one get one free coupons too, just hesitating on them. Guess I have to give it a try now.

See one right by my work every damn day too.

Wineburger is bomb though

[IamRAMBO24]

Someone said Sonic is better than In N Out? :lol

Get the f*** outta here

Seriously, dude is now grasping at straws just because he had one sh*tty experience at In n out.

If these guys really think Sonic's is a good burger restaurant, then you can tell how low their standards really are. I'm surprise they're not throwing a 7-11 Lander's frozen cheeseburger into the conversation.

Id definitely recommend it. Where wineburger at? Maybe I jumped to quick by saying culvers is the best fast food, but among the more popular chains, I believe it is.

try fudruckers also if you havent. You can even get like a 1lb burger lol

[IamRAMBO24]

:biggums: SONIC? That IS shit. So not looking good for IN N OUT here hahaha

Just admit it, your fata*s only cares about the portion of the meal and not what it really taste like. I can just throw a slab of meat and loaf of subway bread at you and you'll still say OMGZ DIS THE BEST!!!! as long as it fills up your fat lard a*s.

[IamRAMBO24]

I know many of you never had steak n shake, but I think this is the only burger joint that can give In n out a run for it's money.

And what makes them better than the other guys are the shakes:

http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/03/8b/44/b0/steak-n-shake.jpg

Remember in Pulped Fiction Travolta was talking about the $5 shake. This literally was what I had in mind when drank one of these suckers. It's more addicting than crack after your first try.

Off the corner of Bethany and 19th Ave, right across the street from Phoenix Baptist Hospital. In the Ghetto, somewhat :rockon:
