- MLMiguel LozanoOct 23, 20255.0First time here and got to say that this is a step up on the Hamburgers and Cheeseburgers we like to eat. The prices are a little more than the In and Out and other burger places but worth it. Most of them come with double patties unless you order a single one. The meat was a great taste of beef. The extras they put on are delish. Grilled mushrooms with the lettuce, tomato and onions and pickles with some mustard took my experience to another level and they have hot dogs too. The milk shakes tasted like a milk shake. Different flavors. Not all thick and MALT like the other places that sell shakes. The fries with cajun salt spice added were NOM NOM city. The small fries could feed 2 people. The facility was clean and location was of course the Almaden Plaza where a Costco, Trader Joes and Lazy Dog and a bunch of other businesses are operating. Service was excellent and seats were perfect for small or large groups.
- VNValerie NavarreteSep 15, 20255.0I am not a regular patron of 5 Guys BUT my son wanted to be paid in 5 Guys for babysitting… I ordered from the wrong location!! When I went to the store the gentleman went way above and beyond! He took my order right there and rushed it! Will definitely be back to this location! Great job guys :)
- PHPo Shin HuangSep 13, 20255.0My go to burger place
- AFAsh ForoudiSep 12, 20254.0Better than other branches in the area. The only problem is that they keep jacking up their prices.
- SLS. LeMaySep 3, 20255.0Good location, clean, efficient and food prepared well. The only reason I can't give 5 stars across the board was the execution has had issues at times when they forget to add on what I paid extra for. Paid a premium for bacon or wanted cajun fries and 3 times in the last year, no bacon, no cajun and they took my money. More than willing to visit again and change my review if things change. Now, I will always check the order before leaving.

Is the Five Guys veggie sandwich a veggie patty?
Our veggie sandwich is not a veggie burger, but truthfully, it can be a mix of whatever you'd like. Choose any combination of our condiments and add cheese for an additional cost.
Our standard veggie is a mix of peppers, onions and mushrooms with or without cheese.
What is the best way to reheat leftover fries?
Leftover fries are excellent reheated in the oven (or Air Fryer). According to Chad Murrell, one of the Five Guys, just pop them in a 350-degree oven for about 10-15 minutes.
