I thought it was just me . But after reading the other reviews and being a five guys fan favorite . This location is lacking. Fries always cold and Burgers are always cold . Past 3 times burger has been sloppy and messy as hell. My cheese was barely melted . And for some reason the burgers seem dry as hell compared to other locations . I love the peanuts and they had non available anywhere in the store. Once I asked for a cup of water and they told me no they don't give cups of water.. after spending $20 on a burger fries, I can't get a drink of water? Is crazy. I live nearby, But I'll probably just stop coming here. This 5 guys don't seem to care about presentation or what the brand is about . They need people who want to do good work, because it doesn't seem like the workers care to do good work .

I don't venture to Five Guys. I may have been to five guys 3x it's been so long I've never wrote a review. I was at Wendy's and I said "Let me go to 5 Guys" and let me tell you what a mistake. I mean really it was a mistake. I mean I'll never go back two stars because the fries will lukewarm the hamburger was dry literally burnt to a crisp. $16 of junk and I mean junk. This order was not for ASAP It was for a half an hour pickup plenty of time for them to get it right and they still didn't get it right. NEVER AGAIN! NEVER! AGAIN! I'm thinking I'm going to get a juicy at least a greezy hamburger I got to dried out burnt hamburger Don't make no sense. Never Again. Teach these guys how to cook I mean Jersey City has a culinary school You can't get somebody in a culinary school to cook a hamburger. I'm disgusted I should have took it back but I swear I didn't feel like driving back in the garbage my loss.

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.

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.
Also, give those leftover fries a try as hash browns, home fries, or even as the filling in an omelet.
