There are so many good burgers out there that something has to make a place stand out. For Five Guys it's the bag fries. No matter what size of fries you order you get a bunch of bag fries. And it's not like they give them to you for free. A small Cajun fry, which is ridiculously small, is $7. The bag fries make up for that kind of markup. I've been to Five Guys locations that gave so many bag fries that I couldn't finish them and tried to feed them to the squirrels. Park Slope squirrels don't like fries apparently. As far as the burger goes, it's fine. Two patties are more than enough for me. The unlimited toppings are a plus. I was happy to see sautéed onions as an option. But I frankly prefer a smash burger. Did I mention that my fries were burnt? You had just one job, Five Guys. read more

I was in the neighborhood to see the Christmas tree. Got hungry and saw that Five Guys was open. I had not ate there in a while. The place was packed from all the tourists. I got 3 cheeseburgers, regular drink and small fries. Total was about $50. Fries was smaller than what I remember. Overall, great experience. Fresh burgers and fries. read more

Crazy that a single burger (1st item on burger side) has gone up $1 every year. Not even a cheese burger... a regular burger for $11ish. What? Yes, it's fresh, but is it even worth it at this point? I understand that it is during times of inflation but I would rather just go to a franchise like Wendy's to get a full meal with soda and fries for that price (even without their $6 big bags). Honestly, not worth going even if you have never had it. This "fast food" is expensive, and it makes me want to eat something healthier that is similarly in pricing. Well done five guys. I am gonna eat my veggies now. read more

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

I'm embarrassed to say that I had never gone into a Five Guys before yesterday. But I did have a gift card and I was in the neighborhood, so I decided to use it. I'll start by saying that if I was paying for it (instead of using a gift card I'd been given), I'd have been upset by the high prices (so one star deducted)). Putting that aside, the food was delicious! I got the smaller bacon cheeseburger and a small order of cajun fries. As others have mentioned, they dump a bunch of fries in the bag no matter what size you order, so you might as well do the small. When the guy handed me my order, he leaned in conspiratorially and asked if I'd ever had the cajun fries with mayo. When I said I hadn't, he handed me a little cup of mayo. It was terrific! read more

You should add this restaurant to your must-try list. I find the cost reasonable for the portion size, food quality, and service level. They've created an atmosphere through thoughtful design. The staff was outstanding, notably observant and delightful. Such remarkably tasty dishes here! read more

Last minute lunch idea. Decided to get some 5 guys. Hadn't done it in a very long while. Thankfully, we ordered online prior to walking out the office to pick it up. As suspected, the store was very busy even though it was 2:45pm. We were called within a minute of our arrival; though, they were still processing our order. All in all, pretty accurate wait time as per what the website said. The main guy behind the counter conducted his seemingly chaotic culinary orchestra with an admirable finesse. The definition of a leader; had his hands busy with just about everything while making sure everyone else kept the orders going. The burgers seemed bigger than I remember them, lol! Definitely not a complaint! I have always felt the burgers at Five Guys are as close to a home made burger as one can get. Following this last experience, I continue to think so. The cajun fries I did not like as much as I once did. Their soda machine did not mix syrup and seltzer well enough. One of my coworkers did not feel too hot after their milkshake (but another guy who also had a milkshake was just fine). Gotta try their Hot dogs some day. read more

Always 10/10 here. Food always tasty and made correct, cashier and crew are notably very kind and helpful. Lots of seating and is kept constantly clean. Very much worth the price and worth the occasional small wait on line (during the lunch rush hours). read more

Great food. 1/3 the price of Hillstone, in the same area. Don't have to tip unless you want to.

I took on my first set of 5 guys back not so long ago when I was an upperclassman in college. I wasn't ready for it and I still am challenged every time I think I'm ready to take it on since. While there are about a million other jokes I could make with this same vein of humor I'll save you the cringy read and stop here. This is in reality only my second 5 guys' location and this one blows the other out of the water. It might be the friendly service staff in the entire city. You come in for a burger and leave with a whole group of friends. It felt like I was asking a childhood friend to cook me up something special. When the guy asked for my number when I went to check my order I started giving him my phone number until I realized he was talking about the number to my order. I thought we were like that already; I think in a few more visits he will ask for the real thing. Enthusiasm does not mean speed. These guys don't want you to leave quickly because boy does it take long. Don't be worried because entertainment value is extremely high and the wait flies by. Plus they have free peanuts. By the time my food comes, I'm so stuffed with peanuts I usually just take it to go and eat it the next day. I would just order online but I would feel guilty as if they would read my generic name on the order and remember the conversation we had at the register. Just to be safe I always dine in. If I had one suggestion it would be to come here during off hours because if you come during primetime it looks like a middle school parking lot with hundreds of bikes parked outside and UberEats entrepreneurs waiting at the front desk for their number to be called. If the Five Guys franchise visited this location I think it would be boarded up the next day. I asked for a small fry and the guy winked and gave me a whole bag full. As happy as I was to get special treatment, I could feel the franchise looking over me in disgust. Not saying this to be a snitch, saying it to plug the guy. I would call this the greatest fast food chain but it ain't too fast and it ain't too cheap. But if you're going to eat like dogshit you might as well make it quality, and for that reason, I'm giving Five Guys in Midtown a 9.0 read more

Not the best customer service. I went a few times and they took forever with my order. And forgot it both times. The second time is was wrong ! There's so many people Behind the counter that they couldn't get it right. read more

Quick easy mid tier burgers made to taste delicious. Love the toppings. And not as salty as shake shake.

Came in to order a cheeseburger with mushroom, ketchup,lettuce and tomato. My order was placed right away and about 4 minutes later the order was ready. Quick, reliable burger. I dont like the french fries, i feel most of the time they are soggy, so i skipped the additional calories and had the burger only. read more

Do not order delivery from this location. On two occasions they left out half of my order and then refused to send over the missing items, instead sending me to Seamless who could only refund me. Not worth dealing with their bad service. ‍ read more

I love burgers and 5 guys usually does it really well! I'm original from the MD/DC/VA area so my standard for 5 guys is pretty high. We came in on a lazy Sunday before heading to a bar to watch GoT. I quickly ordered a little cheeseburger with everything except the non grilled items and the ketchup and mayo. Boyfriend ordered the little cheeseburger with everything and a little fries. I had disagreed with the little fries order, knowing that I eat a LOT of fries, but he was stubborn. I asked for the Cajun on the side. My burger was somewhat disappointing, the cheese was a tad dry and sticking to the aluminum foil in a way that only fake cheese can which was a not very appetizing. Other than that it was great. Our fries were not nearly of the quantity I desired, but that's ok. What was not okay was that there was no Cajun mix on the side. I was very disappointed to not have that as I like to control how much seasoning goes on my fries and was looking forward to them. A great chain for a burger, I might skip this particular location if I'd like another meal though. read more

That grilled cheese reminds me that god is good. Woooow I'm impressed. It's three Ingredients and it's weird that they make it this good but wow read more

Eat here at your own risk! Last night, my son and I visited this location. We both had burgers, fries and a milkshake. I was leery of eating here when I saw how one of the workers burst out of the sole restroom in a hurry-he had all his clothes in his hand. He'd clearly changed in the public restroom. I'm betting dollars to donuts he didn't even wash his hands. Anyway, I go in after him and notice an apron draped over the paper towel dispenser. The whole set up seemed gross and unsanitary, but by then our food was ordered already, so no turning back. Anyway, a few hours later we both complained of stomach aches and then began violently vomiting. BOTH of us--so no doubt it was the food there! I can't say I'm surprised-they don't practice proper sanitation by changing in the bathroom for the public and leaving their uniform in there. We are still having stomach cramps! read more

I usually have the best burger here but today the register person must have been new or something because the order was wrong. I repeated myself a few times and he repeated it correctly but it came out wrong and I should have checked the receipt but my glasses were fogged up from my mask and I didn't notice it till I got home and I wouldn't have told them anyways while there because I was social distancing and it's hard to talk through the mask. I hate onions and he had onions plus it was raw when I asked for it well done. Oh well it's a Pandemic I'm just glad to have food and I'll be back. I walk 30 minutes from my home a couple times a month to go here and this is the first time they messed up. I always prefer a single patty and they always remember to add ketchup. They are pretty fast and good even when it's cold by the time you get home and the place is clean and they are nice. Oh and everyone lines up well and social distances and it wasn't too busy. read more

Five Guys - a hand holding a hamburger on tin foil - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

I am not going to go through all the background on Five Guys - you should know the routine by now: fresh burgers, of the 4-5 ounce variety and freshly cut fires from potatoes that arrived that day from some random farm in Idaho. I got a little cheeseburger (one patty) and a little order of fries. The counter staff was cheerful and efficient, blasting through the throng of lunch orders quite quickly. My food was ready in no time, much faster than other locations, however the end product was still very good. The seating area is limited at this location, so don't come here with 10 of your work buddies expecting to all sit together and complain about your boss. That said, I was able to get a seat as I think most people take their greasy slice of heaven back to their desks and eat. read more

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

Five Guys is Five Guys no matter where you have it. I was wandering around with the intention of going to Burger Joint at Le Parker Meridien, but apparently it was a Valentine's Day hotspot because the line in the lobby was insane. I saw there was a five guys nearby so settled on that as I hadn't had it in ages. No line, service was quick and the burger hit the spot. I'm glad they have the little size fry now, it's pretty much sufficient for any normal human being, anything bigger will feed a small to large army. I'm still more partial to shake shack for my calorie bombs, but sometimes those fries call your name. Overall, a clean and efficient outpost. read more

Man has this place gone downhill. I remember going to this place back in the day when the only location nearby was Bay Ridge. Now it's just a crappy burger they serve with some greasy fries. I had a bacon cheeseburger with BBQ sauce but the bacon tasted like it was microwaved. Gross. I would say its a step up from Burger King, but a step BELOW Mcdonald's and Wendy's. read more

This five guys is located at 55th and 5th ave. One of my friends had mentioned the name five guys and my mind was made up all healthy food options went right out the window. I order from five guys once or 2 times a month. This is my first time at this location in midtown.Upon doing my research this was the closest five guys to the upper east side. We ordered outlet food online and Me and one of my friends decided to walk down to pick the food up. We thought it would be a good fun walk. Well it rained. Fun fun fun. Once we arrived at the five guys we were wet. Our order was already done and paid for we just picked up the order. The girl working behind the counter told us we could have had the food delivered. Delivery dident even cross my mind at all for some reason. Maybe I have been spending too much time upstate. Idk. But then the girl said delivery was a extra $1. I was blown away. $1 is totally worth delivery in the city. Keep that in mind. You can order delivery for $1 added to your total from this location. On our way back the bag got wet but the food was still hot. The estimated time was 9 mins for the food and we walked from 55th to 84th. I was surprised the food was still hot. But. The order was correct everything was good and fresh tasting. Price is a bit more than I pay upstate but. Welcome back to manhattan. I would order from this five guys again. I have been to 3 other locations in the city. This location was very good closest to uptown. I would recommend anyone to order online and make sure you know about the $1 delivery. Yes. Delivery is only $1 I will be utilizing the $1 delivery in the future. read more

Waited forever and they forgot my order. I had to ask for it multiple times. I also got hit on by the cashier and then the manager bitched him out in front of me and it was an intense experience for just wanting a hot dog. read more

My burger was tasty (by burger, I mean the two separate patties they give you for the regular size, as opposed to one for a mini). I love bacon and cheese on top of meat. I love that there's a nice variety of toppings that they will throw on there for free, grilled mushrooms especially. I like that they have free peanuts. I like the fries. But. My bacon cheeseburger ran me about $8. Fries, another $3. I got a bottle of water ($2), because the shot glass that they call a water cup would mean I'd have to get up and down 5 times while eating. So with tax, lunch was about $15. There was a long wait to order, and a longer wait for the food. All told, we were in Five Guys for about an hour. The ketchup pump ran out, and the staff was too busy to change it. This wouldn't have been a problem if they had put more than a drop of BBQ sauce on my burger. As we waited, our conversation was punctuated (usually midsentence) by constant announcements of which order number was up. If I wanted to pay $15 to eat an hour-long lunch of a bacon cheeseburger and fries, I'd go into a bar or an actual restaurant. (In an ideal world) I would get a thick, juicy, medium-rare burger that would INCLUDE fries. I would be seated the entire time. A waiter would bring me a tall glass of water, refill it at my request, and provide any condiments I might need. And there would be no blaring of numbers over a loudspeaker. This is fast food. Decent fast food, I admit; but at real food prices, with a real food wait. Mmm...haterade tastes good. read more

Came with my Burger Buddy Heather H to check out the supposed rival of Burger Joint here in Midtown. It was yummy, but ultimately underwhelming. Big and greasy, check. Tons of toppings (including sauteed mushrooms and fried onions!!) for no extra charge, check plus. But it's no contest in terms of taste and flavor of the beef. Burger joint wins hands down. So why four stars? The fries. My God the fries. Hand cut, fried to perfection, and spiced! Some kind of salt, paprika blend of yumminess. And a "regular" size is enough to feed a family of four. I'll be back for the fries, but my greasy burger heart remains in the Parker Meridian. read more

Love it or hate it I had to review Five Guys, I know it's a chain but some times in life you have to make an exception for good burgers. Most foodies like myself have been anticipating the Five Guys Famous Burgers and Fries to open its doors in Manhattan located on 43 W 55th St (between 5th Ave & Avenue Of The Americas). Their "famous" burgers come with one patty called Little Hamburger ($4.25) or 2 patties called Hamburger ($5.75) - genius. All fresh ground beef never frozen (sounds a little familiar) and fries (reg. $2.75) are all fresh cut and fried fresh (also sounding very familiar). What makes Five Guys stand out from other hamburger eateries is that fact that they give you the options of Free topping ranging from Mayo, Relish, Onions, Lettuces, Pickles, Tomatoes, A-1 Sauce, Sauteed Mushrooms...etc. I could go on but that would take all day. So being a CheapAss I had to get my moneys worth, I asked the counter women if it was possible to have all the toppings with my order of little burger, she said that was call "All The Way" - I like the sound of that! One order of "All the Way" for me, and a Cheeseburger (2 patties) with lettuces, tomatoes, jalapeno and ketchup for Kenneth, along side of small fries and coke (free refills). As I waited for our order we grabbed some free peanuts to hold back the hunger, the really nice thing about it was a huge barrel that was just sitting there for the taking. Munching on my nuts I couldn't help but notice all the awards and accolades that the Five Guys have won over the years, which made my expectations a little bit higher then usual. After all the anticipations and expectations my food has arrived, and I got to say - not bad. Ok may it was better than that but I think I might have made a rookie mistake by ordering my burger " All the Way" which made my burger way too cold firstly, and secondly I didn't know what I was eating, most of the flavor came from the relish (which by the way is not my favorite condiment but tolerate). Kenneth hamburger however was warm and tasty with a nice bite of jalapenos, the patties were juicy with a fresh beefy taste, could have like it cooked medium rare but I think their policy is that they cook it well done no matter what. The buns definitely held up to the beef, however I found it to be to sweet and over powering the patty flavor and too dense and doughy which also took away from the burger as a whole. The fries on the other hand, no complaints at all it was the most wonderful fried edible I have ever eaten, hands down the best fries I have eaten in a very long time. The fries comes all the way from Idaho cooked in peanut oil for high heat, comes out slightly crisp with a fluffy and creamy texture, perfect paired with ketchup. RANTS & RAVES: I still prefer the burgers in In and Out but the fries in Five Guys have every one beat and you can't beat free peanuts. Drinks are 2 bucks but the refills are free, also they have kosher hot dogs, and veggies or grilled cheese for those not in the mood for burger. read more

3.5 stars I am used to the eye rolling, head shakes, disapproving looks & middle fingers I get thrown in my direction when I tell people: my meat MUST be well done. I know, I'm an anomaly. "Well done" is not merely a suggestion or recommendation to the chef/cook; it is a requirement/direct order. Five Guys only makes their burgers well done & to that I say, FINALLY! Finally, a burger joint that feels me. I am always so hesitant to order a beef patty, opting instead for a mushroom or veggie one, for fear of *dun dun dun* the dreaded still pinkish, not cooked all the way thru meat. Thankfully, I don't have to worry about any of that at Five Guys. My dining partner & I got the same thing: bacon cheeseburger with everything, an order of fries & a root beer (hey, if I'm gonna eat bad, I'm goin' balls to the wall.) The burger was freakishly large & very tasty. In between bites, we'd nod to one another, our own sign language signifying, "not too shabby at all." Various accolades decorate their wall, reminding diners they are eating something award-winningly good. Total: $26 P.S. Fries are mediocre. read more

If you really want to eat at Five Guys Famous Burger and Fries, may I suggest that you go for dinner instead of lunch. The wait between the hours of noon and 2pm can be upwards of 30-45 minutes, and though the burgers are worth the wait, it's pretty frustrating to give up your entire lunch hour standing around eating peanuts (which the restaurant provides along the line) while your burger is cooked to order. A regular burger means there is just one beef patty...a large burger means two patties. I do love the fries (a large is definitely large...best to share this order size). And you can add as many toppings to your burger, cheeseburger, or hot dog. Yum...a Bacon Hot Dog! read more

This is one of my favorite lunch break spots to go to while at work. I don't know what is better between their burgers or fries but both are the best in the damn city, and that is not on anything cliche, they are literally the best there is in NYC. Starting with the fries. Fried in peanut oil...I have never fried anything in peanut oil but they make me wanna start too cause whatever it does to potatoes to turn it into fries is definitely amazing. Now for their burgers. They somehow manage to accommodate everyone depending on hunger so they have a mini burger, mini cheeseburger, regular hamburger and regular cheeseburger, and of course veggie burgers. They take the saying "Have it your way" to a whole different level with the choice of toppings you can have on your burger and it is about 20 different choices. I don't even think you get that many choices at the chain pizza restaurants. And it is also a good spot to go too right before you hit the bar for the night to fill your stomach before downing some drinks. Bottom line Five Guys is that s***!!!!!! read more

Now that I work in midtown and not in FiDi anymore, I was looking for a good burger place besides McDonald's because we all know how their burgers are (mediocre at best, but does the job) so I searched burgers on Yelp and to my surprise Five Guys popped up! Checked the location and it was only a few blocks so I had to make a stop here. I've been here a total of 3 times now whenever I crave a burger and they never disappoint. Their fries are always over flowing (they add an extra scoop to your bag in addition to your cup of fries!) and their burgers are always good. I got the "little" burger the last time I went because two patties were too much for me. Overall, service is great, food is great and there's always searing available which is hard to find around Rockefeller Center. read more

Honestly, who the f* is Shake Shack? Long lines, crowded spaces and, well, ...burgers, which have been very much hyped. The burgers and fries here are much more honest! No lines, simple furnishing, great food. The burgers are wrapped in aluminum foil, the fries portions are huge (you can always find some extra ones in the bag). While you wait you can have some peanuts. The wait shouldn't be that long... In the end you get a burger made of organic beef with any toppings of your choice. Mushrooms, onions, mustard, pickles etc can be added on your burger free of charge. It's a great deal and a great taste experience! read more

Five Guys - Go bun less!! - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

I went to the Five Guys on W 42nd Street. And my experience was less than stellar. I ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger. And it was sorrily overcooked. Thankfully I ordered all of the toppings in order to give this sad excuse of a burger any kind of flavor. I ordered the fries which were very greasy. These fries were so greasy they immediately start soaking through the bag. My cholesterol level shot up just by looking at the bag. The only item that I ordered that were any good was the bacon cheese dog. The soda was okay. But that's only because I filled it myself. All in all, I won't be going back anytime soon. Highly overrated. read more

Not bad as far as burgers go. I didn't get a chance to try the fries. Free toppings is a plus. The bun is light and tasty. It's a sloppy burger with thick toppings.

It is good in New York because you can then feed the squirrels that are in the park. read more

Hell yeah it's expensive but if you go to the right location at the right time you will totally forget how much one burger cost (don't forget any toppings added to your burger is free) I've been to the one on 343 7th Avenue in New York and I had the worst experience there. And because of that bad experience I refused to give Five Guys another chance until I came across this location and I must admit, my experience at this location was A-Okay! The place was clean (bathroom needed to be checked on) but the late night crew members where fast with their hands and friendly. Their motto was to get every single customer out the store before it got packed. And my Cajun fries were hot and fresh ! Thank-you guys read more

For a couple of bucks more, I'd rather go to Five Guys then a place like Mcdonalds. Good burgers, the Cajun Fries are delicious! Stopped in for lunch 5 minutes after putting in a super easy online order and my meal was ready! As a New Yorker on the run, I can't ask for more. Thank You Five Guys. read more
