    Food was literally amazing. I read the bad reviews, which made me skeptical, but I could not be more satisfied! The service was also very good, especially from the manager/shift lead, Jalen. He was super patient and helpful with my crazy family. I’ll definitely be coming again.

    The meat is worse than other branches. There are chewy pieces of fat in the meat. Most of the time the fries is old and stale. And 60% of the time they manage to mess up the order. For what they charge, it's not worth it.

    You're better off just driving to the next closest Five Guys. I was watching people that ordered well after me walk out with their burgers when I approached the guys making them. The guy called "33" and I showed him my ticket which had my name on it. He said they would call my name, but this was 24 minutes after I ordered and earlier I was told they were just waiting for the fires. After 30 minutes I asked again and they said that the ticket didn't print, but that they would start it right away. I asked for my money back which they did give including the one dollar tip. (why I give a tip before the service is starting to bug me, tips should be earned) In total I waited 31 minutes for nothing. Complete incompetence!
