worth the heart attack and artery clogging. I like to limit myself to an annual Five Guys experience, typically after a summer day of tubing down the farmington river.Because while the fries and burgers are unbeatable, they arent so forgiving on your waistline. read more

burgers are good! Extremely messy but well seasoned and well cooked. Large assortment of toppings which are included in the price. also, free peanuts which are nice to snack on while waiting. read more

Puts 90% of the burger places (I'm not talking about McD's, Wendy's, etc) around the area to shame. And their fries are also above average. Are they fancy? No. It's like fast food, but nicer. And they sure do hit the spot. Try it. You won't regret it. read more

This five guys is the bomb! There Fries are awesome and so are there burgers!! Def top 5!

I'm totally sold on the vegetable sandwich. My fav: lettuce, tomato, pickles, grilled onions, jalepenos, green peppers, mayo, ketchup and cheese. I could eat that everyday. Can you believe that I like it better than the burgers?? I just do. The cajun fries are the truth!! read more

well i have to say eastcoast five guys taste alot better then the newly added westcoast five guys.. delicious. their soda machine was teleported from the jetsons kitchen.. it is neat and i have yet to see any of its kind in Cali... read more

This is my favorite Five Guys. The food is always consistent each time i come here. They give you lots of fries and the burgers are great!

We went here recently as we aren't too far away from the place. Ordered a couple of bacon burgers all the way, a hot dog all the way, and some cajun fries. We both found the meat patties to be lacking in flavor, but the pieces of bacon offset that pretty well and gave it a good crunch. The toppings were well prepared, and the mix goes well with the burgers. However, the burgers were too large to eat without parts falling sloppily all over the place, particularly since the buns were mushy from the juice of the toppings. The hot dog was more reasonably mouth-sized, but the bun suffered the same problem and, despite doing my best to keep the foil around everything I wasn't biting at the moment, everything still fell all apart, and juice got all over the table. This table messiness is a real problem for the place....when we went, it was not very busy, but every single indoor table was messy. We grabbed a stack of napkins from one uncleaned table, and wiped off another table well enough that we could sit there. You get your food in a big greasy bag, and without a plate or a tray, everyone gets their table messy. This would be more acceptable if someone was going around wiping down the tables and chairs frequently, but that was not the case, at least on our visit. So, pretty well-made burgers and good flavor at least in the all the way, but for us, too sloppy to enjoy eating it the way you get it, and the burger patties themselves could use some seasoning. Still, this is a solid place to eat, with plenty of food for the money. It looked like they manage the food prep area safely from what we saw. And to end on a positive note, the counter service was exceptionally polite and friendly. read more

It's Five Guys Burgers and Fries, the chain is always good

I used to work close by to this location, great burgers, friendly staff. Usually loud when you sit in, but worth sitting outside on one of the benches if its a nice day. Have eaten there 5 times, twice for a big office order that we made online. They are organized and didn't mess up our 10+ burgers with crazy topping arrangements. They always overfill the bag with fries, which is great. Nothing ever soggy even after eating it an hour after the order had been picked up. I would suggest ordering online if you have a big order for the office or a party. read more

Burgers are amazing, as are the fries I always go with the little menu due to their portions being so huge. I could never finish my fries, but I think that's pretty common. Burgers are cooked perfect with all toppings as I ordered. Service is also good, I haven't had an issue and I've been coming to this location for quite a while. read more

Who doesn't love a greasy burger and fries once in a while? The burgers are delicious with your choice of toppings. Five Guys never disappoints! read more

my favorite burgers. staff here is so friendly. I embarrassingly too often order a burger and a hot dog because they're both so good I can't decide which to bring home. read more

This is my favorite place for fries. My partner and I go to Five Guys to celebrate with friends. In a whole world of burger and fries places, this is where we take time to go. read more

Great burgers. The portions are so big with the huge fries, my wife and I actually can split a burger and fries and we are fine. A great treat for a burger place. The place is clean and very simple decor and service is very pleasant. Worth the trip. I actually prefer it to In and Out. read more

This is one of the best 5 guys IMHO. The staff here is always friendly and fast. It's 5 guys so you know its just pure gluttony. I ordered two doubles with cheese LTM and raw onions and then another of the same with bacon and large fries(no I did not eat all of this). One burger did not make past the parking lot and the rest was enjoyed at home. I love how they all say hello as you walk in. read more

The team is great. Super friendly. Five guys burgers are also the real deal. Fast burgers that are actually cooked and cooked well after you order. read more

Easily the best, home-style burgers around. The regular burgers are double patty and can fill you up before you even get to the fries. The fries...we found twice as many fries in the bottom of our bag than we found in our cup! One order could have fed three of us! Though the parking isn't always easy, Five Guys is a must visit place in western New Haven. read more

Three stars....what can I say I am fan of this place. Good burgers great fries and even better portions. I really only go when I am in the mood to fulfill my future heart attack. The peanut oil defiantly sets it apart from the rest. It is really nice to see signs showing where there potatoes come from. The next burger I have might be my last but man will it be worth it. read more

I've never had better customer service at any casual food establishment in the New Haven area! Polite, prompt, and friendly staff makes these incredibly delicious burgers even more enjoyable. read more

This five guys location is awesome. I work across the street and stop in often. They are happy energetic and make you feel like you just walked into the tv show "cheers" I am so impressed with their work ethic and their quality of food. Fantastic team and management. Thanks all. These are the folks that need 15 bucks an hour. Great service always. Love it read more

I give this place 5 stars because the service is a little better here than the other 5 Guys I have been to. I've been to this establishment many times on trips back and forth from Boston to NYC and it's never been bad or have I experienced bad or substandard service. Good food, great people. read more

Classic juicy burgers! Normal orders are two patties so beware of adding an extra. The fries are good, but overwhelmingly great but they're worth the cost. Ohh and the peanuts!! Gotta love free peanuts. read more

Best burgers I've ever eaten. Best fries to boot. Eat here. End of story. Don't get too addicted however; unless you want a nice quadruple bypass... read more

I give out a lot of five stars; That's cuz I try to eat at places that don't suck. I knew this joint was gonna be good-but this has the extra bonus of being a good looking, retro kind of joint. I've never had a sucky meal at a Five Guys, but I mostly just ate at Pennsylvania ones. This bodes well for the downtown New Haven one, which I have no fear will be decent. read more

Good burgers, but I'm not so sure they're rave worthy. I would also wait to tip until after you've eaten. I hate seeing tip buckets in line before you get your food. Tips are "to insure proper service" so how do you know you;ve received proper service before you recieve it? read more

So, after years of great burgers and service, my wife and I went in this evening for burgers. The music was SO LOUD that the order taker had to ask me to repeat everything I said. After finally getting the order in, my wife asked if the music could be turned down. "Absolutely" was the response. The volume was never lowered. We actually saw another customer ask them to lower the volume. Same response. The music was never turned down. I love good music in a restaurant; I don't like to scream at my wife (or the order taker). Very unpleasant visit. read more

Been here a dozen times. Great Burgers and friendly staff just like most five guys. Unfortunately this location is always freezing inside (summer or winter) to the point where I don't really want to eat in anymore. read more

Very disappointed with this location since mid August. New management has replaced every good employee that used to work there. Now the place is chronically disorganized, and the floors are always a greasy mess. Be careful when you walk in, as the carpet runners slide all over the place when you walk on them. The large fries priced at $5.00 used to provide a generous helping for the money - no more.... Management told me that the helpings of fries will be smaller. The cooks stick the spatula into the patties to see if they're done, and often break them apart. The toppings are thrown on sloppily. It's too bad. I work at a large office in the area, and we used to eat there frequently. I hope that they get their act together soon. read more

Good not great. Don't get the hype so many better places to get a good, cheap burger in New Haven.

I was concerned that since Tim left standards would not be kept up. Everything is still the same even without Tim. The new manager is doing a great job. Burgers are still Banging!!! read more

so don't me wrong I liked it but what so special about the place. Burger King offers the same Build it the way you like it promotion. 5 Guys does offer fries that are bigger than most stores however, so is the price. You are looking at a $10 meal including a drink for quality that can be beat at Louis' Lunch! read more

Staff was super friendly that goes a long way, and food was as good as it gets for five guys.

The burgers are always spot on with toppings galore. A regular fry feeds about 3 people. The staff is friendly and always has a smile on their face. It is a little pricy though, about 12$ for a burger and fries without a drink. If you got the money and are in the mood for a great burger and fries, 5 Guys is the spot. read more

Love it so much here they always make u feel welcomed especially the workers TJ, Jamal And Eric. definitely come here when you get the chance read more

What a nice group of people working at this location. Excellent customer service and extremely, outgoing and friendly. They all were so happy and their positive attitudes were contagious! The food is at five guys is always good but it is the employees at this Westville location that make me want to frequent the place. And the music was great too! read more

Love this place! I usually stay away from chains, but this one is tops. The hamburgers & fries cannot be beat!

My second visit to Five Guys (first one in Orange). The burger was poorly made. The grill cook was obviously new and had cut into the burger to check its doneness... it was in 2 pieces. The person who assembled the "extra toppings" was sloppy too. The lettuce was 80% off the bun, the bun was askew and barely toasted . Perhaps this was the time of day... it was around 2:30 PM and not "rush hour". On the other hand fries were excellent and one of the staff was meticulously cleaning the floors and tables after lunch service. $9.12 for a single burger, fries and medium soda. Pricey for the average to poor quality of the burger presentation. read more

One of the best burgers in CT. Consistently excellent and a friendly staff. Some reviews said the place is too loud; it's exactly what a burger joint should be. read more

These guys are just good people. The big white guy that always seems to be there gives off the most pleasant vibes as soon as you walk in. He greets every customer with a genuine welcome as if they are the last customer saving the store. He does this regardless if it's packed wall-to-wall or completely empty like it was today. When it is empty, he finds time to chat with customers and ask them about their day as the good cooks. Everyone else is just as friendly, however they are not as talkative. The only negative thing I have to say about the restaurant is that no one wears name-tags, so they can't really get the proper, personal recognition from customers that they deserve. Oh, and the food is amazing... But you knew that already, it's five guys. read more
