    Pricey, $11 for cheeseburger $ 7 for large fry. $18 in and no drink. Food is good. Eat at cookout if your broke. Cookout tray ($10) milkshake, burger, 2 sides, food is about the same, fresh hamburgers from both places

    Don't bother ordering delivery, they will mess it up without fail, its not hard to hand a correct order to a deliver driver when the receipt shows what should be there

    As many times as we have ordered here it is not consistent enough for me to give 5 stars. The store really needs to up their game on fries. The burgers are somewhat consistent but not always. A burger here should be absolutely phenomenal every time and the fries should be on point. No exceptions. In my picture they literally tasted as bad as it looks. The Roseville five guys is rocking the fries and this location should take notes. When done right five guys is great in my view. Per location can vary. Everyone knows this is common. However feedback on it is crucial.
