    Cheese dog with grilled onions.
    Lila M.

    Yesterday, on February 1st, I went to Five Guys with my friend for dinner at 7 pm. I ordered the cheese dog and added grilled onions and my friend got the same and we shared a large fry. The service was very quick we didn't wait for more than five minutes and there was not a line. It looked very clean inside the restaurant, we decided to sit inside because it has been starting to get cold in Birmingham and it was slightly rainy. Also, I noticed there was not any COVID-19 protocols/precautions practiced or available inside Five Guys nor were any employees wearing any masks. I rate Five Guys (in the Brookwood Village location) a 4/5 stars due to workers forgetting to bring my fries and then getting my order wrong. Overall, I had a great experience and would come back, especially because this was my first time getting a hotdog at Five Guys.

    Little Bacon Cheeseburger all the Way Add A-1 Sauce and Jalapeños

    This location was open and practicing social distancing. I got a little bacon cheeseburger and shared a regular fry with my daughter which was more than enough food to eat for us. The food of course was hot and fresh. I definitely recommend this location over and over again.

    I absolutely love this place! They have the best fresh made to order burgers! I wish they would come up with combo meals because everything is ala carte. I ordered the cheeseburger, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, ketchup, mustard, mayo... I added my own bacon. The burger came with 2 patties and I must say this burger is big and it defeated me. I was only able to eat half. I ordered fries too. 3 people could split a small order of fries.. We ordered our food to go and it was still hot when we got home. 2 thumbs up Five Guys!!

    Hamburger and a load of Cajun fries!

    My first time at Five Guys and I loved it!! The service was wonderful and my food was perfect. I ordered a hamburger with Cajun fries - OMG! I had to rip open the bag because my burger was covered in hot fresh French fries and when I pulled out the hamburger it was steamy too! Everything is made on the spot to be hot and delicious. I thought it was pretty pricey but it's worth it for the amount of food. My burger was made exactly as I wanted it and I guess they use Tony's to season the fries but it was all great. I'll be coming back soon!

    I've always been on the fence with this place. I mean, it's a great, made to order, albeit greasy burger with the freshest ingredients and only the extras that you ask for. Cool beans, right? That's where the good points end. I don't mind paying a little extra for good food. That's good food AND the right ambience. I spent nearly $15 on a cheeseburger, regular fry and large drink. I can't really call it fast food since I waited nearly 10-15 minutes for my order to come out in a greasy brown paper bag. But I certainly don't call it upscale either. That's what I think of when I pay $15 for a simple burger meal. For that amount there has to be something a little extra, something a little bit more special, something a bit more memorable- not just with the food, but where I'm eating the food at as well. The food gets 4/5 stars, but I took away one because of the ambience of the place, or rather the lack of. Summary: good, made to order food that's not for those on a budget and not for those who want a certain ambience to go with those hand-cut fries.

    Not what I expected at all... The fries were burned and the burger was just meh. It is unlikely that I'll ever go back.

    I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with Ketchup, mayo, jalapeños and tomatoes for delivery. I received a cheese burger with onions and mushrooms and lettuce and soggy bread. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

    Burnt bacon
    Jevon L.

    Ok so yesterday I was at the 5 guys in Hoover great experience as usual. Today I am at Brookwood location since my son requested the burger again. But this time I wish I had taken the time to drive to Hoover. The cashier did not greet us instead she kept looking past me like she was waiting for someone so I just ordered without being asked. Then my burger came with clearly burnt bacon. And when I asked the guy for a tray he said "for what" the hoover location had I trays I juts said never mind. I did receive more not so burnt bacon. Will not return to this location. Thanks a lot for the poor service.

And good thing I did! I looked at the menu and honestly wanted to order everything cause it all sounds good. I don't eat much so I went with the two piece chicken tenders kids meal. The lady who took my order said they have a regular chicken tenders meal but I said I wanted the kids meal cause I don't eat a lot. She then said "It's the same amount of food." which, ok cool, but I don't think that should be said cause they can lose out on money. Just my opinion. And FYI, I very often get kids meals cause I really don't eat a lot. Not trying to save money or anything. The meal came with two chicken tenders, sauce, fries and a drink. Fries were good. Nothing to complain about. Those tenders tho.....YUM!!! So much flavor. And the ranch I got with it....yes! Not sure when I'll be in Birmingham again but I will 100% go back and try other items!

The fried chicken at Tracks and Surfside Club is way better than at Eugene's. The cole slaw is also better. My girlfriend is a native of Alabama and she was no fan either. She thought her chicken was tough. I got two different styles of beer and they were tasteless. I might as well ordered a Bud Light. And, of course, the music was way too loud.

It was a pretty easy system to figure out, but I can imagine someone struggling to order if they're not tech efficient. I ordered the chicken burger, green style. It had pickles and sauce.

Once we found a table, our food was brought to us and the staff were helpful and friendly. They got extra sauce for us and they were happy to accommodate with whatever we needed. After eating, I stood up to leave and the staff asked me if I wanted a refill on my tea, which is kept behind the counter.

Because this is in the same parking lot as first watch, which is a breakfast/lunch restaurant the parking lot was pretty packed. We got there around 12 and luckily he was able to find a parking spot. As soon as we walked in, we could tell it was pretty busy in there. I saw a couple getting up from a table and immediately went over and sat at the table. It is table service, but you do have to order at the counter. They have a pretty good variety of burgers, chicken sandwiches, and salads. Unfortunately, due to an outbreak for lettuce that is getting people sick I decided against getting a salad. I just got a regular cheeseburger and it was delicious. My son also got a buffalo chicken sandwich which I must say was a very good size sandwich and a burger with tater tots. I got the french fries and they were very good. I will definitely be back here. The prices were great, and the food was delicious.

Because when I walked in and asked the very nice guy at the register what their best item was, he didn't hesitate for even half a second. "Fried chicken club sandwich. Hands down." Not "one of our burgers." Not "depends what you like." Nope. Immediate confidence. The kind of confidence that makes you trust a stranger with your financial future. So naturally I ordered exactly that. He even doubled down and told me it was the best sandwich he's ever had. Ever. That's a dangerous level of hype to put on a chicken sandwich. At that point I wasn't ordering lunch anymore. I was preparing for a spiritual experience. I got the sweet potato fries on the side and sat there waiting like a kid staring at the oven on Christmas morning. Then the sandwich arrived. And honestly? Visually, this thing deserved its own entrance music. Beautiful sandwich. Crispy golden chicken, stacked perfectly, looked like it had been assembled by a food stylist with relationship issues. I took the first bite and immediately realized what was wrong. Flavor had called in sick. The chicken itself was cooked perfectly. Great crunch. Juicy inside. Beautiful breading. But somehow nobody introduced it to salt, pepper, seasoning, spices, or joy. It tasted like the kitchen spent all their energy making it look incredible and forgot the whole "taste" portion of the assignment. My colleague ordered the exact same thing and had the exact same reaction, which honestly made me feel better because for a second I thought COVID had made a surprise comeback. The sandwich was one shake of Cajun seasoning away from greatness. The sweet potato fries were solid flavor-wise, but a little limp. Not tragic. Just lacking that crispness that makes you keep stealing fries after you're already full. This place feels like a really good concept that just needs somebody in the kitchen to become emotionally invested in seasoning. Three stars feels fair. Nothing was bad. Nothing offended me. It was just aggressively average after being introduced with Super Bowl-level hype. I'd come back, but next time I'm ordering an actual burger at the place called Baja Burger. Feels like that's probably the safer bet.

Parking is primarily street parking in the area, but there is also a public parking deck nearby. I'm unsure what the current cost is for the deck, but it's worth knowing if you're visiting during a busier time. I ordered the fish tacos with black beans and chose the cheese grits as my second side. Everything tasted fresh and had lots of flavor. The real star of the meal, though, was the sweet potato cake. It was incredibly moist and delicious. Honestly, I could've eaten four of them without shame or hesitation. My colleagues ordered burgers and fries. They both really enjoyed their burgers, but neither cared much for the fries. They had also requested a couple additional items after the food arrived, but those items never made it to the table. The decor is bright and fun, though it didn't quite seem to match the style of food being served. Just my personal observation. They also have a robot that helps deliver the food alongside the servers, which felt a little unexpected for the casual atmosphere and southern comfort food vibe. They were fairly busy since it was lunchtime on a Friday, but the wait really wasn't bad at all. Would I go back? Yes. Was it my absolute favorite? No. But there were definitely things I enjoyed, especially that sweet potato cake that nearly made me consider ordering dessert first next time.
