4 “workers” twiddling thumbs. Both ketchup dispenser pumps empty. Soft drink machines with issues. Restroom with, out of order flushing. Scoop of fries just emptied into burger bag. Unreal. Where do you get these people? Around 12:30pm. on Oct. 22, if interested in who was supposed to be working at that time.

Paid $43 to visit a restaurant environment with dirty tables, an unkept floor, the saltiest fries, and a staff that won’t even bother to turn down the blaring loud music.
To any potential customers, don’t come here. Don’t waste your money.

Never been to a Five Guys before and had it two days in a row at two different locations. This location was the 2nd of those locations. The burgers were mediocre and dry, but the fries were some of the best I've eaten. The service was not very good. I decided to try the Cajun fries, and I asked the young woman taking my order what was in the Cajun spice in the fries. She gave me an unhelpful response in a tone that made me feel like an idiot, with her simply responding with "Cajun..." Not very keen on returning if that's the kind of service I can expect. The dining room was freezing cold, I felt like I was having lunch inside of a freezer. Everything on the menu was extremely overpriced, the only exception being the fries which bordered on being too much for me to eat.
3/5 simply due to how great the fries were. If you eat here, only order fries and take it to go.
What is the Five Guys story/How did you guys get your name?
Five Guys began its pursuit to redefine the global burger landscape in 1986 when Jerry and Janie Murrell asked three of their sons whether they wanted to start a business or go to college. Now, three decades after our first location opened in Arlington, Va., Five Guys – a fast-casual restaurant chain named for the Murrells' five sons – serves a classic take on hamburgers, fries and milkshakes in more than 1,700 locations across 24 countries.
