    I have been here twice. Both times were during weekends around 11:00am, so not rush hour time. Staff was courteous and got my Little Hamburger and fries out quickly. I like their burgers; it reminds me of Shake Shack. They are both freshly made.

    Everything is as you would expect from a 5 Guys. I saw they just added one at the mall. The prices seem way higher here. $14.50 for a burger? I haven't been to a 5 Guys this year, maybe this is standard? Stil a good burger though. PS: MAKE SURE YOU ASK FOR EXTRA LETTUCE AND MUSHROOMS! "ALL THE WAY" IS VERY ONION HEAVY HERE
