The food here is yummy and fast (like other five guys), and the fries in particular are either great or excellent depending on the potato source that day. The staff are always efficient and are probably the most consistently happy group of employees I've ever seen anywhere. Entire restaurant is also quite clean read more

This is a fantastic location with great food and friendly staff. Always having fun and saying hello when people come in. They have never messed up my order over the five years I've been consistently going here. Can't live your life trusting all the Kyles out there. Give this place a try yourself and see what you think! read more

Just good demeanor with the ladies who work here. I realize it's called five guys but you will usually see five chipper Latina ladies behind the counter. Good service, clean, and well cooked food. read more

Yooo this was my first time eating at five guys and wow the burger was FIRE! i can't believe you can request as many toppings as you want. I got the little cheeseburger (plus pickles, onions, lettuce, tomato, and ketchup)- yep remember to order the condiments ! Also got a regular sized fries which is big enough to share between two people ! pro tip: Mix the ketchup and malt vinegar for a great dipping sauce ! read more

Five Guys - Little Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Potomac, Maryland

This is a decent location for Five Guys - conveniently located in Potomac shopping area. The restaurant is cozy and does have a few tables near the entrance for outdoor seating. The location is also busy during meal times and are open until 10 PM on most days. The staff is friendly too and helps you with the order if needed. Service is quick too and we have been able to get the food within 5 minutes. They do give you a hard time on getting more napkins for some reason! The food is good - like other Five Guys. There is also a sack of peanuts waiting by the ordering counter that guests can dig in to while waiting for the food to arrive. It's always fun to crack open peanut shells and make a mess when you do not have to do the cleanup later! Our go to items are of course the burger (with cheese, grilled onions, and grilled mushrooms), hot dog, and fries - gotta have them while they are hot! The sauce on the burger is good too. Reminds me of In-and-Out burgers! And two patties in the burger are better than one :) A nice place for greasy fast food when in the mood. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, specially during the weekends. read more

Very kind and understanding staff. 10/10 would recommend! Also just get cookies without the cream add in if you want a milkshake unless you like it REAL sweet read more

This has become my go-to Five Guys in the area. It's usually not too busy, it's very clean, and the workers are always nice. Five Guys burgers always hit the spot. I am usually get my burger done All the Way. Delicious. I had a milkshake here recently too and they are underrated! read more

I have not had my meal yet but Maria R. Took my order and her energy is contagious. She was also motivating to the team. I came in feeling gloomy and am leaving excited. We need more Marias in the world. read more

Typically I love Five Guys, great quality burgers. This location, however, has messed up my order the past three times I've come in so I'll no longer be getting my burgers here. If you're brave enough to come, make sure to check your order. They're notorious for intentionally not grilling the jalapeños and leaving the bacon off your burger! Shake Shack is like five minutes away and way better anyways. read more

I've been going to this business for hamburgers for over 6 months and I have yet to get an order right. But hope springs eternal today they almost got it. I ordered 2 small hamburgers and a large ff. I got 2 double burgers with cheese. But the garnishments were right. read more

I am so happy that this Five Guys is open. I have been craving a big, juicy, meaty Cheeseburger. At Five Guys you can add tons of extras to your burger with no extra charge. What? Yes, I speak the truth! I added grilled mushrooms, pickles, lettuce, and tomato. It was cooked perfectly! It was delicious! It was big too, and I didn't order a larger portion. Yes, size does matter and this portion was generous. The fries were awesome! I could not keep my hands out of the bag, as I drove back to work. They reminded me of beach fries and they were hot and crispy! Not to mention, that they were seasoned well. The service was great! I always worry when I am at work, trying to order food, and get back with enough time to eat. The staff behind the counter was pleasant, quick, and helpful. This was the best burger I have had in a long time! Five Guys is a great choice ! read more

See all

I like the food very much but either a rat or a mouse (not sure which but equally disturbing) ran over my foot and went into the wall. So do with that what you will. read more

Used to be a fan of their burgers mostly because of the toppings. Prices have almost doubled to the point they are competing with many restaurants which have far better burgers. The french fries though are still a winner, one of the best in town. read more

Been to Five Guys at various locations in Maryland and Virginia in the last decade. The Germantown location has been in my son's special request rotation. This location is small but the staff is very friendly and patient. My son is 16 and has Autism, so he needs a bit of time to assess the menu then order and they are always happy to let him think and not rush nor ignore him. Food is fast and he always gives it a 10 out of 10. read more

My son loves five guys so we are here at least once a week Always great food and very attentive and nice staff. read more

I have no idea how this location is not already on Yelp??? I have been to many different Five Guys around DC/MD and honestly this one is the best!!! The people here are great, the food tastes fresher and far less greasy then their other locations. Are they just stepping up the quality because they are in Potomac?? I sure hope so, because I am here all the time... I really like the cajun fries here, despite the fact that a small is basically a whole paper bag full. Don't get me wrong that's awesome, but I am becoming obese because of it... read more

Expectations are a MF... Last week I placed an order at 2:30pm. Employee answers the phone with the least friendly monotone voice I've ever heard, "hello?" I order a Bacon cheeseburger with lettuce, onion, pickles, and mayo. I'm usually given a time my food will be ready; it's almost always, "10 minutes." This day I was hung up on. I leave my home in Potomac Village 15 minutes after I place the order and head to Five Guys. No announcement of my name. Rookie day? They're dead. One table has two customers with their food. I say, "is this order ready?" and show my receipt. No. It wasn't. My burger was in the bag, but the fries were still cooking. Five guys, why are you so content leaving the food with nutrients in a bag for X minutes, but sh*t, fries gotta be fresh out the fryer? I waited for my small fries for 10 minutes in the store. The "small fry" order filled the entire bag, covering my aluminum foil wrapped burger. This was genius, as it took me more time to find, surprise, that I received a bacon cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, and ketchup on it. No onions. No pickles. No mayo. Added tomato. Added ketchup. The order on my receipt was correct. Whomever assembled the burger can't, or didn't read. File this under, "you had one job." You only succeeded at NOT giving me food poisoning. So great job, five guys Potomac, your customer service is probably just good enough for the near death, Prozac laced 90 year olds in the neighborhood. Have some pride in your work, for God's sake. Here's one star for not giving me raw meat between a bun read more

Best fries on the planet, yet. Super fresh food every time. Good prices. Great fast food.

Great five guys location. Shakes are fantastic, fries are good. Burgers are great as well. The only downside is the insane prices. A cheeseburger will set you back something like $12! Great food, not so great prices. read more

This has been the best five guys i've ever been to! Customer service on point. don't get me wrong there are other locations that are bigger & more roomy & comfortable . But there's something about here that always leaves me happy The staff are always kind funny and courteous to my friend with special needs. They always smile at me :) Plus they aren't stingy with the fries . only negative about FG orders do take awhile but hey gotta wait for perfection. My favorite place for a juicy cheeseburger exactly the way i want it! read more

These are my go to place for burgers. And now that they are like everywhere... I've already stop going to Burger King & McDonald. My only problem with Five guys sometimes are their Fries. Sometimes they forget to put a little salt on them or they come-out too soggy. Fries need to be seasoned well & crispy. But, they are the only place that gives out free peanuts while you wait. Nice touch. read more

I have yet to find a better burger in town. Seriously. I dream of these burgers... This location has friendly staff, is clean, and the burgers are juicy. read more

Good god. I've always known that Five Guys makes amazing delicious fresh incredible burgers, but milkshakes too, with all add-ins for free?! That is downright unfair. The cashier grimaced in what seemed like horror as my boyfriend and I ordered a milkshake with chocolate fudge, peanut butter, oreo pieces, and malted milk. Damn was she wrong. That had to be literally the best milkshake/malt I have ever had in my life. Perfect thickness, great temperature (is that a legit compliment for a shake?), some chunks of oreo still left in there--perfection. Go for the burgers, come back for the shakes. Thank you, Five Guys. read more

A Five Guys in Potomac Village? Even though they had been advertising it before opening, I thought it was nothing more than a cruel joke. Especially with the stink all the Potomac mommies put up about a McDonald's going into Cabin John over a decade before, I didn't think it would be possible for us to get another burger joint, but lo and behold, the best Five Guys in the entire franchise is now my next door neighbor! While this doesn't bode well for my bikini body, how can anyone with a pulse say no to a mouth-watering juicy burger made to order with free toppings galore? While it's no In-N-Out, I truly feel this is the closest I will get to the holy grail of burgers while at home in Potomac. The staff is always wonderful and once they get to know you, you can just tell them you want your "usual" and they'll know just what to do! My puppy, who can't eat red meat, but is a fan of their buns, is even luckier than I am because they ALWAYS throw in a free warmed up bun just for her. I have yet to find another place (or even Five Guys location) who will do that! The only reason I've docked 1 star is because no matter how busy or how slow things are, there is always a ridiculously long wait from when you order your burger to when you get it. This wait is actually longer than at other Five Guys locations, and I'm not entirely sure why. But for the level of service I get and the cleanliness of the joint (I'm so OCD about it!), I'll never go anywhere else for a burger in MoCo! read more

First of all, I love Five Guys. One of the best tasting burgers, and fry's, against the plethora of burger places out there. With that said, I'm not sure what happened to the Potomac, MD location and now will not go back to this location. On my last three visits, today be the last, this location got my order incorrect all three times. Today, for instance, I ordered a little bacon cheese burger with fixings. The first burger didn't have any bacon. The second included jalapenos that I didn't order, no grilled onions or any ketchup or mustard. And the third attempt, they took the second burger, scrapped off the jalapenos (and embedded cheese), and smothered a now cold burger without cheese with SO much ketchup and mustard it was not only un-eatable but made me feel like they were making a statement by over condiment-ing because I asked for it to be corrected yet a third time. They did offer to make it yet again, a fourth time. I asked for a refund, and they gave me one less the sales tax I paid and the 20% tip I had previously included. Love 5Guys but won't be a patron anymore at their Potomac, MD location. Suggest you check your order before you leave from this location. read more

I'm so glad Five Guys is in Potomac Village! If you look closely, a lot of stores in the Village have closed down and there is a lot of empty and dead retail space all over. Most of the other stores in the area have been uninteresting and lackluster. Does anyone remember that Chico's was the only clothing store in the area at one point? That horrible restaurant called Flapjack's or whatever? I'm so glad that Potomac Village is undergoing a bit of a Renaissance now. So it is a big breath of fresh air to have a store come in that is current with the times and serves delicious food in a family-friendly atmosphere. The food is exactly the same amount of delicious as any other location, except this one is closer to home. read more

Does not compare to other five guys, Milkshakes watery, prices inflated, and smiles not shared.

Sunday, Oct 16 1:50pm. The guy who made my burger did a horrible job. I ordered two cheese burgers to go. One with tomato and lettuce +BBQ sauce and the other one with everything + BBQ sauce. He made both burgers the same. I had to eat a burger without pickles for the first time in my life. The worst five guys burger I ever had! I am not happy. read more

Awesome place! Typical 5guys, very similar to the one on Bethesda Row

Pretty good as a five guys location but to me five guys itself isnt my idea of the best burger option (more partial to shake shack) but solid. read more

Friendly service, clean establishment, and the food is typical top-notch Five Guys. I can't understand how some people would downrate it for just being Five Guys; if your issue is with the entire chain (for nutritional reasons or whatever), it doesn't make sense to take it out on an individual franchise. Also don't understand how some people can call it perfect and give it less than five stars, but I digress. Soapbox rant aside, I subtract one star because the music is pretty loud for such a small place. But all else is great here. read more

If I could give it more stars I would. It is a great restaurant. Their burgers are juicy, their fries are fresh and their atmosphere is out of this world. Yes it's not the most fancy restaurant, but I don't think you can get better burgers anywhere else. read more

ordered here the other day. may i just say in my whole life i have probably only eaten at five guys like 4 times. this is due to the fact that its sooo UNHEALTHY! lol yes they allow you to add whatever toppings you would like BUT then you cant even fit the damn thing in your mouth. lol also, every time i order it, its always smushed and drippy with sauce. i just feel like i can get a better burger else where but because its convenient to where i work i chose to order here. i also ordered the cajun fries which i feel taste exactly like the regular fries lol pros about this place... FREE PEANUTS! hahahaha read more

I know one FiveGuys isn't that different from another and I don't frequent them that often. But when I do, it is reminder how greasy their burgers are. And this location in Potomac is almost annoying in terms of the noise level. You have music playing loud enough to make talking difficult and then you have the guys behind the counter singing. To top it off, they still don't have wireless access. Just not a favorite in my book. read more

I was so disappointed by our food last Friday night. The burgers had no taste! Not even salt. Even the raw onions seemed to lack taste. The fries were flabby and greasy. I'm not going back to this location. read more

very good burger at a fair price. fast and delicious. friendly staff. clean facility.
