Not the best 5 Guys I've been in. Bun was stale. And no place to sit. Burger was poorly constructed.

I'd just like to say thank you very much, Five Guys for not being greedy with the french fries unlike your competitors. =) I"ve been to this particular Five guys a few times and i've never experiences anything remotely bad, Bravo Sirs. The burgers a re cooked well, and the fries are more than you can handle haha. If you're looking for a good burger joint, i highly reccommend Five Guys. read more

They don't have any vegetarian burger.. :( Not much choices for vegetarian... Almost none.. huh ! read more

Often overlooked in the discussion of the quest for the best burger joint, Five Guys makes a noble push but ultimately is done in by their burgers themselves. The burgers often come out overcooked and lose all taste to them, which makes the meal disappointing, particularly next to their utterly fantastic french fries. These fries are a flavor explosion in my mouth, both salty and crispy, just hitting that sweet spot. In addition, while you wait for your order to come off the griddle, there's a full barrel of peanuts free for the consuming! Warning - the "normal" portions are huge: a regular burger is 2 patties stacked high with all the fixins'. That's a big portion for anybody to finish in one sitting. Overall a nice place if you're in the mood for some delicious fries and some just ok burgers. read more

"I don't normally do this" is said most often by: A) College Freshmen B) Co-workers after the 3rd date C) People who "do" what they say they don't normally do D) Me on my way to a fast food lunch Answer: D Five Guys has the same set up - order your food (keep the burger topping simple or you will have tectonic patties), pay, and patiently wait for your number to be yelled out. Personally, I love Shake Shack, but Five Guys is the clear runner-up when I don't want to wait on a 30 minute line. read more

Braved the messy, snow covered 6th ave to get to Five Guys today for lunch and I think this is by far the best burger I've had yet. Snack on peanuts while you wait for your burger. Snack on the fries while you walk back to the office. I don't come here often, so when I do, I do it right. My boyfriend shared a large fries with me and we still have more to share - they are generous with the fries. I got the regular cheeseburger (2 patties) with ketchup, mustard, grilled onions and tomatoes; delish and not greasy. Unlimited free toppings so go crazy. Their meat isn't sketchy, the toppings are always fresh and never questionable. Even the buns are fresh and sesame seed covered. Quick, friendly service. Cleaner location than the one on 55th street. Larger and has more seats too. We got there at 11:57 and beat the rush. That is definitely key, or call ahead to pick it up. read more

We stumbled upon this small place while in the area. The layout is a bit inconvenient when you walk in. You have to walk straight to the back of the joint to begin placing your order. Also, there is not much seating available; just a couple high top tables to your right. Enough of this food will send you straight into a coma or cardiac arrest. Once in a while you do need some greasy goodness, but I wonder how fast you would die if you ate this stuff every day? humm.. Anyway! Definitely not a healthy choice, but it will satisfy your cravings :) I have been to a number of Five Guys and the quality of the food is different here. It wasn't up to par with what I'm use to but it wasn't bad. The burger was cooked like I ordered it but the fries were not that great. I would give them another shot if I stumbled across them while in the area but I wouldn't go out of my way to go back here. read more

Love 5 Guys hamburgers! The burgers are juicy and the bread is fresh. I can't understand why people wait in a huge line for In N Out Burger, when 5 Guys burgers are way Berger. read more

I am extremely disappointed I ordered a bacon cheese burger with a little Cajun fry on my lunch break . My order came very quickly but my order was absolutely wrong . I asked for lettuce , tomatoes, mushrooms , mayo and my burger came with just the patties and cheese . My fries were almost empty ! read more

See all

Classic burger and fries; not much to say about that... decent burger, decent fries... lines are ridiculously long during holiday weekend, not sure if it's always like this though. read more

Best burger I've had in NYC - and I've been to Shake Shack! Potatoes come from a dfiferent destination every day (every week?). And they *do* have iced tea. So good! read more

Best burger! Better than shake shack better than In&Out. Fact!

What happened to this place? I went around the month they opened and had a great experience. I talked some people at work into ordering from there last night and we all got soggy, tasteless burgers with undercooked, soggy fries. With all the burger competition in Midtown, including a new Five Guys in Times Square, this place needs to step up the quality! Shake Shack for the win. read more

Five guys has the meatiest burgers in the fast casual industry. They also have free peanuts! My nice 1,200 calorie meal brings me great joy but unfortunately a long time at the gym :(. Still, oh so good. Get a double with bacon and small fries because they overfill the bag with fries. read more

Fast-food can taste absolutely fresh and good. Tried cheese bacon burger with mayo and ketchup + jalapeño plus peanut oil baked fries. 5 stars for 5 guys......... read more

I don't know if it's the best burger I've ever had, but it's pretty darn good. I'm a late adopter to Five Guys. Up until then, I liked the burgers from Burger Joint. The regular Hamburger or Cheeseburger have two patties, and pretty much all toppings are free. Usually it's a bit much if you order fries (regular sized fries are more than enough for two people). For a light lunch, I'd suggest going "Little" where it's only one patty. Pretty much a good burger, only things that prevents 5 stars is the long wait times (typical weekday lunch rush hour wait is 30minutes). Other than that, good burger, great fries, and friendly staff at this location. read more

Nothing like standing around for 5 minutes and leaving smelling like a burger. MMM-ummy! Hmm.. maybe that's why the boy wants to cuddle more after a visit? uh oh. Five guys is a good burger. Fries are great. Me rolling out the door, not so good. Lots of good burgers in the city. This one is consistent and you know what you're getting. read more

It's true what they say, this is the best of its kind (besides In&Out which you only have in California, sorry NY). Fries were tasty, and one order definitely fills up 2 hungry people. The only downfall is that this place gets super crowded and you literally have to fight for a seat, and on a summer day that's no big deal, but on a cold, rainy, windy winter day you prefer to eat inside. read more

Just left Shake Shack and I must say I have a greater appreciation for Five Guys. There is something to be said about ordering a burger the way you want it and there fries and just plain ole better. I am not saying don't ever check out the Shake Shack, I guess there are great things about both, but Shake Shack needs a new recipe for fries! read more

Delightful burgers! Now I've had quite a few burgers in the city and some outside of the city and I'd have to say this place's burgers are delicious! Okay, I'd admit I was on my way like a typical (or maybe not) to see the Rockafeller tree before Christmas and I was definitely starving once I got there! This burger joint was a block away from the tree and I couldn't resist! The place smelled better than my senses could handle (you could tell I was really hungry if I could smell the food). There was a line though. Not a line for ordering, no. A line for the. Chance to get a seat! I felt so bad for the families that had 4-6 party members looking for a table. This place could sit like 20 people maximum so if you're a big family be warned you're either waiting or eating on the go! I loved my burger, cooked to perfection and the French fries were always crisp! Even when I started traveling in the cold with them they never got soggy. That my friends is some quality fries! Overall, this was a good place to eat and very convenient! read more

I don't know man. The hype is just too much for a simple burger joint. When I think of the perfect burger, I think of medium rare, well seasoned with salt and pepper, mushrooms, bacon, and cheese. Now, Five Guys definitely has all the add-ons but Jesus Christ would it kill you to season your damn patties before you place it on the grill? All you need is a little bit of salt and it would help the burger retain every last ounce of flavor it needs to be perfect. The cajun fries are pretty good, but everything else is just sub-par. read more

Food: 4 stars, service: 1 star The food was great which was to be expected - especially for the price ($11.63 for a single bacon burger and fries), but the service was subpar. Venasia, the cashier, was very rude and aggressive. She appeared to have absolutely no tact or formal customer service training. She went back and forth with me about calling a single burger "little" versus a "single" which was silly. I've only been to this chain twice before, but even if I was a regular her means of getting me to "correctly order" went too far. read more

I had a full set...burger, fries and milkshake. Everything was delicious. The burger just melted in my mouth and the milkshake....WOW...the peanut butter milkshake was the best milkshake I've ever had. I am so happy that they also have their brunches here in London!!! I can see myself going crazy and having a peanut butter milkshake with added bacon next time!!! read more

So I've been to so many before.. This one stank. So loud in here the girl did not hear me at all. I ordered fries and it never made it on the bill annoyed I refused to wait another 10 mins for fries. I also am now gluten intolerant so I got just a bun less buger it looked pitiful and overdone. Next time I will spend my money at a better place. Ps turn down the music maybe orders won't get messed up. read more

For a fast food place, I thought the food was overpriced. The burgers were okay. Nothing to write home about. But then again I've been visiting several burger places lately, so it could be possible that my excitement has been desensitized. Although I must mention, they gave me two patties when I ordered the cheeseburger. Is that the norm? read more

Decent Burger but I like Shake Shack aka Shake Crack better. PS, Please use organic meat. read more

Best burger and fries ever. They have a very intricate system while putting together their burgers. Very detailed. If one things not right about the burger, they instantaneously re-do it. There's usually a long assembly line, if you will, of burgers, and to watch the staff pull it together is nothing short of amazing. I go at the cusp of lunchtime, and it's crowded. Did I mention the fries? UGH! Jesus in merciful Heaven, always hot and fresh, with MORE in the paper bag. (if for takeout). The place is always clean, and I'm a huge fan of any establishment that offers free refills of beverages. I am a bonafide fan, and can't recommend Five Guys highly enough. read more

Five Guys - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

Consistant with other Five Guys, these guys have good service, a clean space and winning burgers. For being so close to Rockefeller it gets busy, but never too crowded. Love the standard double patty, and all the refugee fries that end up in the bottom of the bag. Don't love the price, but it's probably justified. If you're not from around here, go try Shake Shack. But if you're looking to break up the midtown lunch monotony, hit this spot on a friday afternoon and take a snooze at your desk before sneaking out early. read more

This only has a star because of the fries and I can't give it zero stars. Other than that, not worth my time. I went here a while ago hoping for it to live up to it's hype. Again, it was all just talk. CONS: The price. Almost $7 for a poorly put together burger that took almost 20 minutes to make? No thanks. Flavor aka non-existent. Dry. Tasted overcooked. Messy. Most tables had old ketchup and god knows what else. PROS: The fries Basically, I will never go here again. It's yet another place that is hyped up yet doesn't live up to the name. read more

How do you do it? What is this sorcery you use to make your delicious burgers and fries? I am never disappointed stopping by FG. I like getting steak sauce and mushrooms as toppings and pleasing my inner carnivore when I am here. The toppings are fresh, patty is juicy and delicious and right size, and the portion of the fries (get the seasoned ones) are so large you will either share them or end up feeding some to the local wildlife. Actually don't do that. Never do that. Just bring a friend and gorge yourselves here. read more

First the soda machine. The sprite was empty on both machines and so I got coke and tried it and it was watery in both machines too. Then I got my burger after 10 minutes. I was just waiting for my fries. After 20 minutes of waiting for fries the employee says "I don't like how the fries I just made came out so I'm going to make new ones". So I waiting 15 more minutes for the new fries and they weren't even good. My hamburger wasn't good either. It made my stomach sick. read more

I recently tried Five Guys for the first time. I will probably never do it again. The burger was decent. However, it had absolutely no seasoning or toppings. I got a cheeseburger, small fries, and a small soda and paid $14. Why? This is insanity. I will never pay this much for this food again. If I get a coupon or something, maybe I'll go back. read more

I love this place. I'm from Maryland (home of the guys) but work in Midtown. This place is always solid. Fast, friendly, consistent, service. I actually know a few of the guys now that work there. End up here a couple times a week. Never once had any less than stellar service. Corporate needs to give this branch manager a raise!! :) read more

It's just one of fast foods like McD's. Worker is so kind, but taste is not good. Just so so... Size was so big, so I couldn't eat whole things. read more

I'll be honest, with the way that Five Guys is decorated, I wasn't exactly expecting it to be much different when compared to many fast food joints. I'm glad I was wrong! I usually get the hamburger with mushrooms, grilled onions, pickles, lettuce, tomato, and ketchup (or just the 'Everything'...free toppings WHOO!). The hamburger is a hamburger...not a hockey puck. It's made well, cooked well, and is juicy. The fries are large, thick-cut potatoes that are lightly salted. Just one burger and a large fries is enough to fill up a really hungry person (actually the large fries is enough for two people and I have to split my fries with someone else because I could never finish one by myself!). They have shelled peanuts which you can grab as much as you want from a sack for free, but I usually pass them up since I'm not big on peanuts. It would be nice to see Five Guys have some other beverage options though, like milkshakes, Root Beer floats, or Lime Rickey's. Basically, 'old-timey' drinks that would go with the theme of a classic burger joint. Other than that, Five Guys is great at what they do. read more

Second visit in one stay, these burgers and fries are the best in NYC as far as I am concerned. Value for money, great taste, friendly service. read more

Five Guys - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

Great place! Strange as it sounds, I think the fries are better than the burgers (which are already pretty good). You place an order for small cajun fries and they give you a wagonload of it. The store itself is relatively clean. It can get packed sometimes which will slow down orders, but then again, it is in Midtown after all. Yes, Five Guys is more expensive compared to other fast food and burger stores, but the increase in quality definitely exceeds the increase in price. read more

Fantastic, fully customisable burgers!!! The burgers are fast and you can put whatever you want on them. You can help yourself to free and unlimited peanuts and choose from an array of drinks. The burgers are cooked fresh and are delicious. The Cajun fries are a must try!!! I have been here a few times, and they are one of the best fast food joints. read more

* Very Expensive * Fríes are not awesome, they are oily and awful * The soda machine only works for fanta and coca light * The table moved * The cashier doesn't explains the topping you have To order at the beginning * Don't undestand so many prizes?? Did they pay for them?? read more
