    Paid 20 for a combo. Asked for No tomato no onion. Got both. Burger and buns was sloppy and wet for some reason. Five guys is my go to when im looking for a burger. But out of the 20 ive been to in the country. This was the worst one. Also called to order on the way and got put on hold. With no response. Love five guys...but bad!

    Very nice location inside the mall property. We had no wait, and our burgers were made to order. We got off the highway on our way to the Washington Dulles airport. It was worth the extra few minutes go get something good! The parking situation there is not great, though. If there are no spaces out front, good luck.

    The burger tasted like what you expect for a Five Guys burger. Nothing special but it satisfies your craving when you want a burger.

    Great food but in store ambience is not great. Better to sit outside.
