Stopped by this Five Guys with my family. Five Guys is well-known for their burgers, so when I was craving one, I knew this was the spot. The interior is consistent with other Five Guys locations in the city, featuring a retro throwback design with checkered whites and reds. The historical displays were a nice touch. The service was good, and I appreciated the uniforms, which added to the nostalgic vibe. We each had a cheeseburger, customized during order. The burgers were juicy and very filling. The fries were plentiful and delicious, and the peanuts were a nice addition. However, if you have a peanut allergy, this isn't the place for you. Overall, another solid Five Guys location that is a go-to for higher-priced burger joints. read more

Five guys is consistent and good. The burgers are made fresh and they are tasty. I still can't get over the fact that burgers here are $10 with nothing. Combo is now pushing $20 for fast food. Service was good for the late service. Place was clean and worth the late night stop. The place is consistent 60's theme burger joint. read more

I placed a review before for Five Guys, however after mulling things over, I decided to change my review. I'm not one that understands the hype about Five Guys and why they're even popular, much so why they're still in business. First strike is the menu. There are no combos, it's an "a la carte" set up. Meaning there are no discounts for getting a combo, you pay full price for each item as if you were buying it individually. A regular fries is about $5, cheapest burger will be minimum $7-8. It can climb to about $11. Add a drink, add your lovely HST that goes to our amazing government. I'm close to $20 for a burger, fries and soda... Pardon? Service is quick! You will get your fries in a soda cup, which is a bit of a head scratcher. Why? I could very easily steal a drink from the soda machine after I'm done, so thank you? They do like to dump a few fries at the bottom, which is sorta nice. But again, soda cup for a fries holder? Obviously none of us are anal about calorie counts when going to a fast food place, but you need to give it a thought here. A large fries is about 1,200 calories. I did some research: a Big Mac, medium fries and medium pop is about over 1100 calories at McDonald's. So that means just on fries I've consumed more calories at Five Guys? Suffice to say I eat pretty healthy, very clean. I didn't feel all that amazing after in my stomach. The fries are deep fried in "100% peanut oil" they claim. Free peanuts are available for you to snack on while your food is being prepared. Peanut fever here! Does 'Five Guys' actually mean you eat the calorie count of five guys? If so, then big yikes! read more

Five Guys - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I would have to say that out of all the fast food burgers, 5 guys is my favourite. Although I've never had a McDonald's burger or Burger King but I'm talking more upscale fast food. Let's start with the burger. My biggest regret is not getting bacon because my sister got it and it put the burger up a whole other notch. I ordered a double cheeseburger with pickles, ketchup, mayo, lettuce, extra jalapeños and grilled onions. I will say they're a little cheap with their toppings. When I say extra, I mean extra not like 1 extra. The sauces were practically non-existent which was annoying. The fries were crispy with every bite and I wish I had gotten a small because their medium and large are seriously overwhelming. I was quite satisfied. Keep Eating, Angela read more

Five Guys - Double Cheeseburger - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

The five guys on the storefront now refers to the five Murrell brothers that run the family business that began in 1983 in Arlington Virginia; originally it was Jerry (father) and the 4 sons. Five Guys serves hand-formed fresh ground beef burgers cooked on a grill along with fresh-cut fries cooked in peanut oil. You have your choice of regular free toppings and/or other toppings for an additional charge. Drinks choices include the usual fountain/free refill drinks or you can try a milkshake. Store decor is a nostalgic 1960's theme in red and white. It looks and feels clean! Help yourself to shelled peanuts while you wait for your meal to be prepared. There are 14 four-seat table or 4 high table seating options. This is a great meal choice to the burger places that serve frozen patties. My bill ran $17.60 but it's worth the gourmet burger experience. read more

Five Guys Burgers and Fries finally opened up a new location in Scarborough. Now the people in the East end or people that travels only on TTC, can give their burgers a try. If you ask me if Five Guys Burgers are all hype? In a way yes.. especially if you are not crazy about pan fried patties. I love the open kitchen, you can see all these guys working like a factory assemble lines.. (there were more than 5 guys preparing all the burgers fresh when ordered!) Hamburger ($6.49) with grilled onions/mushrooms, jalapeno peppers, Mayo and lettuce - Love how you can pick all the toppings and create your own burger..mine is the spicy version usually unless I am sharing it with a friend. jalapeno peppers was really weak tasting... - Patties was a little dry since cooked well done and a little bland without any seasonings... some can argue that by doing so, can taste beef in it most primitive form... Five Guys' burger is not going to be the burger that I daydreamed about... I love my burger's patties charcoal grilled with seasonings and this thick patties that just cooked medium... pink inside...(not going to find that in Toronto ..so I daydream about it!) BTW, your burger might take a little while to get ready.. I guess you can always eat some whole shelled peanuts while you wait!! I hope you are not allergic to nuts! One big difference between 5 guys chain in US and Toronto, no calories information are posted with the menu... If you see how much calories those little burgers has.. I don't think you would have get your side order of fries with it!! read more

Pretty big location, all was clean and there was plenty of seating. Service was fast and food was fresh Amazing fries but the veggie sandwich I had was tasteless. Literally couldn't even finish it. The cheese is super processed and tasted like plastic. Not much else to say. I'd be back for the fries alone. read more

Looking for a good burger without the frills? Five Guys is your spot. You cant really go wrong with your order here, it's a classic burger spot with classic burger toppings. I got the bacon cheeseburger with lettuce, jalapeños, sautéed mushrooms and onions, ketchup and mustard. I had no complaints. The cheese was melty and the patties were meaty. I paired my burger with a side of fries and a cherry milkshake. The milkshake was thick and creamy. My only negative comment here was you can tell it's made with cherry syrup because it was so sweet. But if you like sweet then the milkshakes are a perfect choice. It's also good to note that this burger joint has FREE PEANUTS, not to be confused with PEANUT FREE. read more

Good juicy burger and fries although sometimes I get soggy bun and their fries used to be better. Overall pretty good.

Decent burger good fries but eat them while they're hot because it's not as good cold or when they're soggy (they wrap their burgers in foil). They make your order fresh so while you wait grab a bunch of complimentary salted peanuts to stave off your hunger in the meantime. read more

If youre craving some delicious, juicy burgers, this is the place to go! The burgers are so yummy and the menu is so customizable. The meat is cooked perfectly all the time I go here. You can also add an extra patty if you want! Service was normal, nothing too noteworthy, and everything comes really fast. It took less than 5 minutes waiting time for my stuff to come. You also get free penuts while you wait which is a treat. We went on a Friday for lunch, there wasn't a lot of people. The only downfall would be the price. For a double bacon burger with fries and drink, your bill comes upto 20$. There's also only one veggie option. You'd think they'd atleast have a veggie burger but they don't. They just have a grilled veggies sandwich. read more

If you want an all American burger experience this is the place to be. Burgers are cooked fresh. All free toppings helped create that very personal experience. French fries you just know they are fresh cut and the peanut oil (!) definitely made the taste darker and richer. Definitely a notch above your normal burger experience but be prepared to match the budget. read more

Five Guys - Little Bacon Cheeseburger $7.69 Fries (more than fills a person) $3.59 Refillable drink $2.39 - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

After a month long trip to Asia, work buddies decide to take me out to Five Guys for a burger. You'd figure after not having a hunka-slab-o-beef for a while that this would be the best thing since.. sliced hamburger patties. Well.. it was ok. However, over the years, I've learned that 100% pure beef of one cut will only be so good. The best burgers in the world are blended burgers. Some kind of cheap cut along with some fatty ones like short ribs, and/or some additional gamey like meat (i.e. lamb). 5 guys fries were above average and loved the Cajun spice on my fries. But the burger itself no better/worse than a Johnny's burger or a Burger hut, albeit a bit more pricey. That alone will keep me going back to the mom and pop shops. Hmm I think I'll start my own chain. 2 Chicks with meat and a cup? nah.. read more

You know there must be something must be good here if it's a chilly Sunday afternoon and a there's a line up to the door! Some might argue the prices here a little steep but they definitely make that up in quality and portion sizes. Burgers are made with 100% fresh never frozen ground beef, they use peanut oil, and everything on the menu is trans fat free! The line moved rather quickly, ironically they had 5 guys working behind the counter to keep things running smoothly. After you place your order you can have a seat and wait until the number on your receipt is called. To pass the time make sure you grab a handful of the free peanuts! Perfectly salted and roasted, they make for some nice nibbles to pass the time. The standard burger here comes with TWO patties! If your a child or weakling you can opt for the small burger which contains only one patty and best of all you can go crazy with the toppings because they all FREE! This is what I opted for on my Hamburger Toppings - Grilled onions, Grilled mushrooms, Jalapeno peppers, Tomatoes, Ketchup, Mustard, and Hot Sauce. Everything was fresh tasting even the jalapenos still had seeds to give it extra kick, nothing was sloppy and held together well. Meat - Both patties grilled perfectly, juicy, not overwhelmingly big, still able to take a decent size bite without dislocating my jaw. Bun - Soft average sesame seed bun lightly toasted with good bun to patty ratio! Cajun Fries - These are a must! Fresh cut perfectly fried and dusted in that addictive cajun spice! I got the large size and they were definitely huge in portion size, not only do they fill the cup crammed with fries but they run it over in the bag! I just ended up ripping open the bag and dumping the fries onto it, made for much easier eating. This could definitely feed a family of four or in my case two ladies with an appetite! Free peanuts, free toppings, huge portions, self serve fountain drinks (hello free refills), two patty standard juicy burgers, fast and friendly service, it totally makes sense why this place is always packed! and don't forget those Cajun Fries!!! Yum! read more

I was excited about Five Guys Burgers since it was available only in the States for the longest time. I decided to come here for a snack after work one day. Aside from the great selections of free toppings for the burger, I have to say Five Guys was mediocre. I got a cheeseburger with mayo, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, grilled onions and grilled mushrooms. It was delicious and worth a try but it's not a place I'll keep coming back to. I do love the concept of free peanuts that you can help yourself to as they are preparing your burger so people with peanut allergy beware! It's definitely more expensive than McDonald's and not as creative as Big Smoke Burger (formerly known as Craft Burger) so if you're a burger addict, go ahead try it but if you just want to try just for the sake of trying it ... save your money. read more

Came by for an early dinner while in the area and found them to be quite empty. After we ordered a small line formed and seats slowly filled up. I find this place expensive for what it is. We got a little cheeseburger, a little bacon cheeseburger and a regular fries - the bill came up to ~$20-25. I like their burger because it does have the "beefy" taste and they always throw in more fries and all toppings are free being a plus. However, the price and wait times definitely not a plus for me. I come here once in a while and until a better/cheaper option opens up around here, I'll still be coming here for those burger fixes. read more

First time here it was great we saved to come back and second time here we will not be back as it has become just like going to any other fast food burger joint only twice the price for not great offerings. Very disappointed in the food quality. Staff is friendly but that isn't going to get us back here unfortunately. read more

This location is one of the better ones, I prefer going here over the Yonge & Dundas location since it's less crowded and cleaner. The burgers are on the pricier side as two littles with a bottle of water came to $17 but the quality and custom toppings make up for it at the end. Don't forget to stock up on the free peanuts while waiting for your order. Five Guys is a go-to place when you're craving a good burger and fries.The shakes and Cajun fries also are irresistible! read more

I have been to Five Guys several times. I really like the burgers, I never eat fast food burgers like from any of the major chains. The Five Guys burger is made to order using a fresh patty, they have a large selection of toppings, I like my burger with everything! The French fries are really good too they taste homemade. Overall Five Guys is on my top 5 burger places in the GTA. #30daysofYelp read more

Five Guys isn't a place you stop by everyday for lunch, mainly because you'd die before your tenth visit and you'll be broke. The burgers are delicious if you like thin, crusted patties that are made to order on a pan top. They are not grilled and they are not thick. As far as I know they're unseasoned. Do yourself a favour and get the regular cheeseburger, not the mini wuss (unless you eat here everyday...). The regular fries are good for two, but they're not as generous as the Five Guy's in America. The cajun fries are gross, but I know a few who love them...to each their own. Drink are self-serve and free refills, so really you only have to get one cup and two straws if you're willing to compromise with your fine dining partner. If you're allergic to peanuts, run away! The fries are fried in peanut oil and there are boxes of shelled peanuts there for customers to help themselves to. I like my burger with grilled onion, mushrooms, pickles and lite ketchup (yes they do "lite" and can even go lite on lettuce). Not sure about this location but in general the jalapenos are fresh and not the pickled kind you get at a hot dog stand. read more

The search for the best burger - 2011 Review #2. A lot of fanfare goes with this joint. Mostly from the US. I got the banquet burger. One patty with bacon. It was thin and overdone. The buns are toasted. YEAH. The Cajun fries are horrible and the regular fries are ok. Will somebody please educate burger joints on double frying. The only consolation is free refills, unless you order take out. I won't be going back. Look for review #3. Still searching. read more

An American Chain has landed in Toronto. I have to admit they make a mean burger but I think they are over rated as well. I had the mini cheeseburger which is one patty. A reg one has 2 patties. One order of fries is good for 2 people. I enjoy the fact that they make the burger when you order on their grill so everything is freshly made, hot and not lying around. The toppings are great as well... I LOVE mushrooms, and hot peppers option. They are a little pricey for a burger joint - 2 burgers, 2 drinks and one order of fries came to about $22. And like Jennifer said - I hope no one is allergic to peanuts because you can munch on those while you wait. Overall I dunno if they will last - They don't really overtop Harvey's or Licks in my opinion. read more

You know, I take my burgers seriously. This is the most standard american diner burger you can get. It even tastes american, but something falls short. The fries are plenty and the fountain pop is.... well... fountainy. I really can't say it's worth the 15 dollars to come here. It's a nice treat to take a break from the crappy food around my work and enjoy something that's a little tasty. However I was extremely close to heading next door for California Sandwiches. There are better burgers in Toronto. read more

Five Guys is the perfect destination in the east end for an American style, never frozen, cheese burger. The toppings are fresh and plentiful. I usually go for the standard ketchup, lettuce, tomato, onion, mustard, and relish. I also go for a little hamburger, but the cheese is nice melty processed, perfect for this kind of burger. The fries are delicious and plentiful. Cajun seasoning is nice, but unnecessary. Not a place for people with a nut allergy. read more

My first experience with Five Guys was last summer in Long Island which was a phenomenal experience (and no, this is not a reference to Fire Island!), so you can only imagine how I excited I was when they opened up shop in Scarborough. Despite being one of the unhealthiest burger joints, I had to get my fix. In both instances, I've opted for the little burger, which has one patty (with two patties being the norm at this joint). When I first had it, I didn't realize the unlimited options when it came to toppings so stuck with the standard toppings and condiments of lettuce, tomato, ketchup. With so many options to choose from (and at no extra cost), I went a bit overboard with the toppings this time around. I mean, who's gonna say no to grilled onions and mushrooms?! I learned my lesson that 'less is more' and the combination of all the toppings really took away from my overall satisfaction of the burger. As for the fries, I'd have to pass on future visits. If you can look past the unhealthiness of peanut oil, and prefer largely sliced, mushy fries, then by all means, go for it. The Cajun seasoning didn't really do anything for me either. It's definitely going to be awhile until my next visit, perhaps on a day when I feel like splurging. And my next burger will be plain and simple, with no excessive nonsense! read more

Came here to try just because I heard good things about this place...so decided last minute to go here for dinner. We ordered single patty burgers and fries. Pros: -clean environment -good staff -quick service -good topping choices Cons: -did not feel "full" from the burger -fries were too salty ... will get regular if we go again -wished patties were a bit thicker -not the most satisfying Can't really say if I would choose to come here again, there are a lot of other good restaurants in the area that are in the same price point and more filling. It was worth trying but nothing to rave about. read more

The ONLY good thing about this place are their fries. You get a huge portion of them. We got the cajun fries and they were delicious. I wish I could say the same for their burger. I got the single patty, I can't eat those massive burgers and fries. The bun was boring, the lettuce, typical. Free toppings aren't impressive either. I don't live close, but I was told to try this place. I am used to Gourmet Burger or Hero Burger as they are far superior to this place as far as fast food burger places are concerned. read more

I ordered the: - Little bacon cheese burger - Cajun fries The burger was pretty good, however I still think Big Moe's is better. The Cajun fries were stale and horrid. They were of the shoestring variety and they sucked ass. Come on now, moist steak cut fries are where it's at. This place is expensive too, and the food was not worth the price. Do yourself a favour and go next door to California sandwiches. read more

Great burgers and fresh fries. This is not McD's so the burgers are really good made the way you want it. The best part free peanuts! All you can eat!!! read more

Five Guys - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

It's a fast-food burger chain that isn't like most fast-food burger chains. This place blows chain burger joints out of the water. The only thing I get hung up on is the price - $15 for a regular burger (double), fries and a fountain drink. Local restaurants that offer better burgers charge less. With that price, I only go once in a blue moon. The first time I went they filled the bag with fries, but the last time I went they didn't, so I don't know what that is all about. It's probably for the better because the fries went to waste on my first visit because there were way too many. As for the burgers, they're good. I haven't had a bad experience. The meat and the toppings taste fresh. No complaints there. read more

Five guys is where you'll find a good old fashioned home style burger. Nothing fancy, just good old American Beef patties encased in a soft bun. If you've been to Burger's Priest you can really tell the difference between the two. Where Burger's Priest would be considered a gourmet burger/specialty burger with their aromatic patties; Five Guys patties are very deep in beef flavor without overpowering or boring your taste buds. The dressings are plenty to choose from and nothing too fancy. The type of burger they serve is without gimmicks and what you see is what you get. Even the decor screams small town America. The fries are made from fresh cut potatoes from local suppliers. Thick and double fried, so full of flavor. This place is the total package when it comes to a burger joint. Tasty burgers without flaw and fries to keep you munching. And when it comes to fries, a regular order is more than enough. The fries come overflowing and are dumped into your take out bag. Once you pay them a visit, you won't regret it. read more

I like 5 guys inside me!.... wait.... that sounds odd. I recommend to go there since they offer free peanuts, decent burger with some awesome toppings. Fries!! mmmmm, with the cajun salt peppery stuff. Free drink refills! The location was well kept and the staff is friendly. Only negative is the price, I think it is a little high for the burger. read more

Not sure why this place isn't getting higher ratings but I love five guys! I usually get a bacon or the bacon cheeseburger with a side of Cajun fries (the fries are key). It's fully customizable with plenty of toppings and you get free peanuts while you wait. The burgers are always juicy and tender and the fries are very fresh. The Cajun fries is what makes me come back so often. Overall it is a little on the expensive side with a burger plus friends costing more than $10 but I think everyone should indulge once in a while! read more

Excellent burgers. Basically any topping you could want. They also have mini burgers for kids and smaller eaters. It can take a bit of time to get your order. read more

Five Guys is about as good as you can expect a fast food burger chain to be. This place has some very redeeming qualities but also has some pitfalls that are preventing it from being exceptional. The good: - Everything is cooked fresh to order, burgers are customizable, burgers appear to be fresh not frozen - All toppings are free including grilled mushrooms and onions - Portion size is huge, a regular burger comes with 2 patties (you can order a single patty but you have to specify it, the norm is a double) topped with as many toppings as you like - A regular order of fries means you will get a regular cup full of fries then your bag will be filled to the brim with more fries. A regular order of fries should be sufficient to share between two people (provided one of those people isn't me, I ate the whole order myself) - The fries are fresh cut, thick and very delicious. You also have the option of Cajun fries which have a nice seasoning that has a bit of a kick, definitely go for these. - The burgers are cooked on a flat top which gives the a nice crispy crust on the outside - The open kitchen allows you to see your meal being prepared - They have complimentary peanuts - They use potatoes from PEI and even have a sign up telling you where that day's potatoes are from. The not so good - Although you get a double patty with your burgers the patties are quite thin and if you load up your burger with toppings (as I like to do) the taste of the thin patty can get lost. All burgers cooked to well done which means they will not be at their optimal juiciness. - Processed cheese on my burger was not melted, I hate processed cheese! - The price tag is quite high, my regular cheeseburger and regular fries ran about $13 tax in (with no drink), this is a little more than I am comfortable spending on a fast food burger - They use peanut oil to fry everything, there are big sacks of complimentary peanuts, and the floors have peanut shells all over, so if you have a peanut allergy this place is not an option for you As for the restaurant itself, it is fairly new with the trademark five guys décor which consists of red and white tiling all over the walls. The service was very good, my order was taken promptly and I got my food in about 10 minutes, my food was cooked to order hence the wait. Overall five guys dishes out probably the best fast food chain burger you can have but that still doesn't justify the price IMO, for $13 I could have gotten TWO meals elsewhere! It is definitely worth a try but I would not frequent this place often. read more

Hamburger(2 PAT/$6.49) I had an Angus Third Pounder @McD earlier and the Patty taste, smell, and felt quite similar. Obviously there are slight differences overall but with this note, I'm not sure if Five Guys is overly status-quo or McD making competitive improvements. Why does the Burger Bun always get dented? Is that a characteristic of a good Burger? Can't complain about FREE Nuts, just can't. Painted Metallic chairs to look like Wooden chairs. read more

Wasn't busy, burger was made to order and fresh but it tasted like it wasn't hot enough... Possibly due to extra fresh, extra cold lettuce and tomato? Definitely better than Johnny's around the corner and well worth the extra $. read more

I like to eat a lot and it's not very often the food served to me fills me up. The portion sizes at Five Guys does that and more. Often times and order of a burger and fries is brought home with me for later. The first time I went I made the mistake of ordering a double burger with a large fries - something you might have no trouble polishing off at another burger joint. Not the case here. In addition to the quantity, the quality is top-notch. Burgers are made fresh as you order and ingredients are visible from in front of the counter. You can tell they're fresh and in good shape. The burger itself is moist and flavourful but the flavour comes from the beef itself and not a bunch of other ingredients thrown in (they may indeed have spices and what not in there, but I didn't take note of them like other burger joints). The bun is lightly grilled. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Back to the ingredients: I usually get ketchup, mustard and lettuce on my burger. I was really impressed how crisp the lettuce was. This stuff was fresh! The fries are also like the buns - crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. There's also A LOT OF THEM! My advice, order the small. What sucks about Five Guys is the price and the wait. Even when I've visited Five Guys with just a few people in line it seems like an unusually long amount of time to get your order. Also, the prices are steep for a burger and fries despite it being one of the best burgers and fries in town. read more
