    Peanuts make the wait for freshly made food effortless.
    Daniel B.

    By the time Five Guys made it up to the Capital Region, it was already a large chain restaurant. But it was after the brand's arrival that this burger seller became much more of a national enterprise. The only reason I mention this is because I've noticed a decline in the deliciousness and quality of its beef. Granted, I'm more sensitive than most. But now I find small hard pieces of cartilage (I hope) in the patties. More importantly, the burgers just don't provide that long lingering beefy flavor on my tongue like they once did. Sigh. Fortunately, I've found the chain's vegetable sandwiches. One of my favorite things about the Five Guys burger has always been its rich delicious bun. And this bizarre concoction of grilled onions, sautéed mushrooms, LTO, sliced jalapeños, mayo and hot sauce is surprisingly good. It's even better since I discovered that they will grill the jalapeños for you too. It's strangely satisfying, especially when combined with the fries. The fries continue to shine. And not only that, they are a ridiculous bargain. A family of four can reasonably share a small order. Assuming you split it evenly, that still comes to 250 calories of french fries per person. I'll occasionally just come in for an afternoon snack and split a small order of fries with the two kids. TL;DR It's quick and delicious. Plus I've even found a way to make it a healthier choice.

    Jaguar and me and a lot of big guys mostly enjoyed burgers for lunch at Five Guys this afternoon. OK Steve N.}}} I DID order the cheeseburger (2 patties) - the one with the cheese between the patties, and you were right - very nice: tender but not squidgy, juicy, and greasy. It was a big burger for a little superhero and this time I didn't try to finish it. In a basically veg-free environment I topped mine with fresh tomato, onion, lettuce and mustard with pickles (NO MAYO NO KETCHUP) to get me a serving of more than just meat and bread. The burger didn't fall apart and I loved every bite. Jag was a copycat but went with the grilled onions instead. Slippery and good but she didn't feel "wowed" - a good burger. AH - the best part was the fries!!! Thick - not those wee skinny pointy little shoestrings that you eat 6 at a time so you get a mouthful - these were dark and crispy on the outside and perfectly squishy inside, hot and fresh and not too salty, with lots of little overcooked ones to savor between eating big ones. We ordered a regular and it was ALOT of fries, but we ate them all. Tres yum. I went through about 10 napkins. I don't generally go for paper products going into landfill (FG is all about disposables) and though it may be part of the experience, I would really have liked a paper plate instead of paper bags and napkins and burger foil to eat off of. It was a bit too picknicky for this gal. And guest what!??? They now have MILKSHAKES!!! . I guess they realized the competition was getting fierce out there - everybody else is "crafting" shakes. But when I asked what was in them buddy didn't know. OK next time on the shake. Zena, Goddess of Fire

    Rarely disappointed. Everything is always fresh. "Not A Freezer In The Place", according to one of their in-store signs. I always order online and pickup at their Guilderland location. The online ordering is very cool. Options aplenty. There are loads of toppings from which to choose, AND you can select 'light', 'normal', or 'heavy-on-the-' for each item on your burger. Once you arrive and tell them you've got a web order, they'll shout it down to the employees that are preparing food, and your order is usually ready within a couple of minutes. I much prefer their method of "get it started so that it's close to done when the customer arrives, but don't COMPLETELY finish preparing it until they get here" vs. other places that opt for the "prepare everything as soon as the online order comes in and then let it sit and get cold and gross" method. Their burgers are delicious, but the shining star of their menu (at least for me) is their fries, particularly their Cajun fries. Fresh potatoes arrive daily from the most exotic regions of Idaho.

    My husband's burger with bacon....as I stated at it longingly.

This place came up with great reviews, albeit only a couple so far, and we decided to check it out. We drove to the location, which had limited street parking, but we were able to find a spot using my parallel parking skills, then we headed inside. It was a small place, with 2 tables that each sat 4. The TV was on, and we chatted with the guy on the counter who shared a menu with us. In the end we settled for a traditional cheese and pepperoni pizza. No one was using the tables, and we decided to eat in rather than head back to our hotel. We chatted and waited for our pizza, which was done quick and was delicious! Everything you could want from a thin new york style pizza. Good amount of cheese, charred pepperoni, not overcooked or burnt, the crust was soft and delicious. The service was awesome. Every worker we spoke to was nice and personable, without being annoying, over the top or in the way. We were offered silverware and plates, and enjoyed our pizza, before needing a box despite it being so good. I would definitely consider heading back here the next time i'm in Albany, great food AND great service at a reasonable price, what more could you want?

They also provided a generous portion of of chips as a side. I was less happy with the beer pour for my two IPAs. I ordered a Fiddlehead and a Dogfish IPA and both had an inch of foam. Aside from the beer pours, I would recommend this place for a burger.

    For context, I rate products and businesses on a simple scale: 5 stars means I love it, 4 stars…read moremeans I like it, 3 stars is okay, 2 stars means I didn't like it, and 1 star means I hated it or think it's unsafe. This was my first time at Beer Bones Bar and Grill. We went as a group of six and made a 6pm reservation, which turned out to be a good call because the place filled up quickly. It's on the smaller side and definitely gets busy. One thing to note, there is a 3% upcharge if you pay by credit card. It's posted on the door, but easy to miss if you're not looking for it. We started with pretzels and mozzarella sticks, both were very good. From there, it's clear wings are a big focus here. They have a ton of sauce options. We ordered a wing platter and tried Stebo, garlic parm, moonshine, and bourbon BBQ. The Stebo was the clear favorite for everyone, with the bourbon BBQ as my personal second. I'd definitely be interested in trying their honey BBQ next time. The wings themselves were excellent, large, meaty, crispy, and very flavorful. I'm somewhat of a wing aficionado, and these absolutely delivered. One thing that really stood out was the generous portion of celery, carrots, and blue cheese. Most places treat that as an afterthought, but not here. Everything was fresh and plentiful, which was a nice change. Bravo on that. For entrees, we were told they were out of string fries and corned beef, but pastrami was available as a substitute for Reubens. Not a big deal for our group. I ordered a cheeseburger, no tomato or onion, add lettuce, with steak fries, and asked for it well done. Others at the table ordered a Feener burger, another cheeseburger, mac and cheese, tater tots, a slider, and a Nashville hot chicken wrap. The one issue was that our waiter didn't write anything down, which made us all a little skeptical. Unfortunately, that concern turned out to be valid. One burger came out without cheese, and they were out of American, so it had to be switched to cheddar. My order came out with tomato and onion, no lettuce, and waffle fries instead of steak fries. To their credit, everything was corrected quickly. The runner brought out lettuce right away and swapped the fries, mentioning steak fries take a little longer, but they came out pretty fast. My burger itself was what I'd call medium rare rather than well done, but I was hungry and didn't send it back. Despite the mix-ups, the food across the board was very good, and the portions were large. I was full and couldn't even finish my fries, which almost never happens. Service overall was a mixed bag. The waiter was friendly and acknowledged the mistakes upfront, which I appreciated. Other staff checked in on us, refilled drinks, and made sure we had napkins and wet wipes for the wings. Once the errors were announced , they were handled quickly and without any issue. I really think if the order had been written down, this could have easily been a 5 star visit. I'll definitely be back, the wings alone are worth it, and the staff did a good job recovering from the mistakes. Next time, if we're a larger group again, I might suggest writing the order down just to avoid the same issues.

It actually kept me from ordering my own burger this time, so I just snagged a bite of my partner's (which was excellent). **I have had the gluten free option before and it was good, but udi's isn't my favorite (doesn't have very clean ingredients). Great tasting burger overall, but I just wish the gluten-free option felt a little more reasonable (or perhaps had a higher quality GF option for the higher price tag).
