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

I have eaten here many times and just had the chance to write a review now. Had the bacon cheeseburger. Toppings all the way. Burgers are good! I would say top 10 in the city. Goody's diner was the best joint to go to. Too bad it's no longer around. Fries were good. Get a cup of fries then they put another scoop into the paper bag. A order of fries is good to share for 2-3. If you have a severe peanut allergy I suggest you don't go there. Many reviews have been done already but the best by far is Daym drops on youtube.

Five Guys - Bacon cheeseburger all the way - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I have been twice. The first time I had a burger and fries. Be forewarned, a small burger is all you need. Portion sizes are large. The last time I went I had the grilled veggie sandwich with cheese and shared a large fries with three friends. Overall they have a good selection of toppings which is a big reason I like burgers. read more

Five guys has great burgers but they are expensive. They don't have combos so you have to buy fries and a drink separately. The drinks have free refills and their "regular" burgers come with two patties while their smaller burgers are just one patty. A regular cheeseburger, fries and a drink is around $16, but it is extremely filling. Their fries are in a container and they put an additional scoop in the bag! Although their burgers are yummy, there are other places I would go to eat burgers for cheaper. For the area it is located, it really is the best choice! read more

Burgers taste like homemade. Fries were excellent. Service is friendly and efficient. Not cheap though. read more

Five Guys - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

For some reason I crave Five Guys every now and then. I don't know why. It's not particularly good and it's quite expensive. Decent burger, decent fries. Horribly priced unless you can make up for it in free peanuts. It gets an extra star for the music selection, it's always rocking. read more

Good real hamburger, but I'm really disappointed in the the front of the house. It's just like everything else in Scarborough. After a few weeks of being open, the "new canadians" throw trash on the floor, and leave stuff all over the tables. On Fathers day, there was 1 clean table to choose from. I've visited 3 stores in the states and all three had a staff member working on tables lining up chairs sweeping the floor etc. If the eating part looks like crap what will the washrooms look like. I was thrilled they were coming to Toronto, but wish they would keep it clean! read more

I am very familiar with this chain going all way back to their humble origins in the Washington D.C. area in the early 90s. They were consistently voted the # 1 burger in the local mags down there. Although I am not immune to the allure of grilled beef on bread, I never saw what made them so great. Although my initial pronouncement (back in the day) of 5 Guys being a post-modern Fuddruckers seems a bit dated, the sentiment still holds. This isn't a truly better burger; it's a fresher burger - it has more options - it's bigger - all good-ish things that somehow in my mouths mind don't add up to better. There are loads of better mom-n-pop burgers in the GTA and if you need a chain burger to feel secure, well IMHO Hero is a much better choice. read more

On the weekend shift at work we usually have somebody do takeout or pickup and somebody suggested Five Guys. I had never heard of them but he said they were big down in the states and were opening restaurants here. The menu looked good so we placed our orders and a couple of guys left to get them. It took a little longer than usual, maybe the place was busy or maybe it just takes time to cook their burgers. But we were hungry so it was lunchtime. The good: - The burger was fresh, it was tasty and you could taste the beef. It's also a double patty standard on every burger. - The fries were outstanding. Top marks for the fries alone and it's worth a trip back there just for those. - There's a lot of food. I couldn't finish the fries but then I rarely get through them all even if I kept going back to them when I would have stopped for any others. The bad: - It's expensive. A cheese burger combo with the toppings I got ran about $15.00. - They use process cheese. If I'm paying more for a cheeseburger I want real cheese. - The patties, while double, are a little thin. They're better than Wendy's but that's not saying much. I'll probably go back to try it again but it's nowhere near being a top burger joint. It's definitely better than most of the burger chains out there but the price alone means it's not going to be a regular thing. read more

Been going here since they first opened up. I believe it was the first Five Guys location in Toronto. They have reduced the patty size from when they first opened AND raised the price. Having said that, Five Guys is still one of my favourite griddle-cooked burgers because they're simple and fresh. Their fries are cooked in peanut oil which has become my favourite fries in the city too. Not many places use peanut oil. Only negative thing I can say is the price, a bit high even for all the food you get and unlimited pop refills. read more

My feelings are pretty much just a reiteration of what has already been said, so I'll try to keep it relatively brief. The standard burger is 2 patties, and with cheese and bacon you're looking at just under $9 before tax. This was a pretty good burger, and my only complaint lays in that the bacon was overcooked and crunchy and lacking in flavour. The female diners I was with settled for the Little Burger or whatever they call the 1 patty equivalent, and thought it was perfectly satisfying still. Fries come in 2 sizes in either regular seasoning or cajun. Even the regular size ($3.49 pre tax) is more than you should need as they not only fill up the cup but also then pour a handful or fries into the bag so unless you plan on feeding a small family of 4, don't bother with the large. In fact if you even go with someone else, splitting a regular between the two of you will probably be adequate. Drinks are 2 sizes as well ($2.19 - $2.39 before tax), but are limited to fountain pop. Otherwise its bottled water, as they dont have any bottled juice or anything else, so hopefully you like Fruitopia if you don't drink pop. Bonus cool factor gained with free peanuts! You're going to be waiting a few minutes for your food to cook, so why not indulge in some free peanuts while you wait. All in all, a satisfying lunch and I'm glad I got to try it to find out what all the Five Guys hype is about... But there are actual restaurants where for $12 you can have a better burger and wash it down with a cold beer in a non fast food environment, so I doubt I'll be returning any time soon. read more

Very pricey burger joint! Go to T-bones instead. Burger was tasty, however for $12.49 for burger and Cajun fries (no drink) paid way too much!!!!!! May not last long. read more

Real burgers!!!!!! This location is always bustling. My fav is the Jr Bacon cheeseburger....patties are juicy and tasty. Fries are from PEI - worlds best potatoes! Sorry McD's ....no comparison with the real deal!!!! read more

I've had the hot dog and grilled cheese from here. Why? Because cheap, that's why. The grilled cheese was really really buttery (yum), but not memorable. They're pretty generous with the cheese, but it might be worth knowing that the bread used is a burger bun - typical for fast food places. The hot dog though, was amazing. AMAZING. I think they toast the bun as well? I didn't get it loaded (ketchup, mustard, mayo), but holy Batman do I crave that thing. But they don't sell milkshakes. Isn't that a shame? read more

Overrated. Overpriced. Average burgers. 15 ****ing dollars for a meal. unbelievable. Go to real mccoys or golden star; save yourself the guilt read more

I really don't have much to say about the place. The burger was OK, the portion is pretty big. I like how the fries are just thrown in the bag lol. I can't say no to free peanuts. Decor was very retro-diner with newspaper clippings on the walls and typical diner music. I just wanted to try this place out since I've tried most burger joints in Toronto. I would only come back if I was craving a burger, and it was the closest place in the area, and I was too lazy to go to a farther & better burger place. Definitely not triple-D burger material. read more

5 guys = 5 stars!! The only chain that I want to ho to fix my burger and fries craving, so fresh and so good!!

Ordered 2 burgers to go. When I got home I Found a cockroach in the burger wraping.. beware..

The hamburgers here are really good, and the french fries here are really good. The combination of fresh cut fries and the burger is pretty good. The selection of toppings is fun to play with. However, it's really overpriced, and I don't think they provide a product which is worth the amount that you spend here. read more

Me and my wife frequent quality burger joints around the city and we're yet to find one that's meets the quality of five guys! No matter which one you go to they are the best with the same quality at them all. Mostly go to the one on warden and eglinton, big smiles and free salted peanuts read more

Would rather stick to the value meals of bigger chains. Can't beat Goldenstar. Fries are pretty good though.

They give a decent portion of fries but that's all I have to say that's good about, Five Guys might use "fresh ingredients" and cook their fries in peanut oil but it really doesn't make the sandwiches worth the money you pay for them. The topping list is minimal so if you're looking for something wild or exotic then I'd avoid it. Moreover, the patties themselves are flavorless and the employee's will tell you that it's just plain old ground beef without any spices. For this cost I'd expect prime beef at least. To finish my review I'd like to mention that after speaking with two employees at this location, they were more than forthcoming about their poor treatment by management. Kids, if you're looking for a job maybe try McDonalds. My next burger will be from Burger Priest, forget these guys. read more

This place is really good! I liked the bugers and was satisfied with the single patty while my husband has the larger two patty burger. Nice the topping are included. But the fries.....OMG so good the first time we went! They were from Tiginish potaoes ( they have a board that tells you where the potatoes are from) & they were Perfect just cripsy enough and potatoey? enough and salty enough to make them perfect. The next time we went they were from another place out east but were not as good but I will forever hold those first fries as the gold standard in my eyes. Oh and the burger was consistently good. Although a little pricey, a large fries can easliy serve four regular appetites and two fry lovers appetites. Definately worth a try to see for yourself. read more

Please be more careful about listening to special orders. My husband went to great lengths to order me a burger that's safe for my food allergies, only for me to open it and find it's covered in cheese. It's in the garbage now, so thanks for that. read more

I've eaten here twice and loved it both times, definitely a quick and dirty meal before catching a flick at the movies nearby. The meat is fantastic, as others have said, it's sort of a fast food chain burger with a mom and pop taste. The fries are pretty good, the first time I went I felt they were a tad undercooked. The second time they were darker and had a much better flavour. They do literally take two scoops and throw them in the bag, I love that! Best way to eat it is to tear the bag open and munch away. i could never eat a large fries here and I'm a fry fanatic. I can't wait till they buckle and offer poutine. Johnny's burgers is terrible, this place owns it. I would still say T-Bones has a better homeburger but this hits the spot! read more

Good taste but still not worth the cost! It makes no sense to go into a fast food place and pay over $17 for a burger, fries, and pop!! Really leaves a bad taste in my mouth and I regret coming here. Never again. read more

Awesome burgers and fries. Great staff. But they seriously need to get rid of those chairs that are SOOOO LOUD when they scrape against the floor. Seriously. read more

This was my first time at any of these locations. It's a cute little schtick they've got going on - free scoops of peanuts in the shell to munch on while you're waiting in line or for your food. I was surprised to see this, as the sign they have (a much needed allergy warning) is located below the mid point of the front door and so not very visible/obvious (people, seriously, suck it up, move the Five Guys sign off of one of the doors and have the warning at adult eye level, please. This is an issue that can very easily be life or death for many people, so please don't mess with it. I tend to think highly of a company who goes above the minimum legal requirement when it comes to caring for their customers. Now to the food - be aware, their "regular" burger is two patties. Yeah, clearly an American company because nowhere (except maybe in a pms, need red meat and chocolate moment) is that considered "regular" in my world. Anyway, the staff are friendly, the menu board is pretty clear and straight forward. We each ordered a "small" i.e. regular, one patty burgers and got to choose our toppings (free sauteed mushrooms). We decided not to order drinks or fries and just focus on the burger. They give you a number, and you sit and wait, we grabbed some peanuts and munched while we waited. They finally called our number and we got our burgers. They toast the buns, and the buns are like the ones I remember from my childhood (puffy with the sesame seeds on top), they toast them. The burger was okay, tender, but I wish they hadn't put so much A1 sauce on my burger because that's ALL I could taste. Too bad, because the meat seemed juicy but I didn't enjoy it as much as I might have. It would be helpful if they had something next to the tables/little sweepers to get the pieces of peanut shell off the table. Do we sweep em onto the floor? Use our napkins? Is this one of those places they want us to throw the shells on the floor, the floors weren't that clean and already had shells scattered her eand there so it's possible...so the burgers are okay but not cheap, I like that you can add as many (free) toppings as you like. I'd go back one more time to see if the burger was any more satisfying/to munch on free peanuts, but we have A LOT of fantastic burger places in Toronto, am not likely to spend my money on a U.S. chain's so/so burger, ya know? read more

My experience here was okay. Burger was just okay. The only good thing was the cajun fries!! BOMB!

At $23 for two burgers, one drink and one order of fries, this place IS expensive! The burgers are served in a tin foil wrapped ball, they look like something dug up from the garbage bin. In short, nothing special and over-rated. read more

This was my first time getting five guys. Free peanuts won my heart! They also gave me extra mayo when i asked them and didn't make a big deal about it. Impressive that they are generous on their condiments. read more

First of all my 13 year old says "Five Guys are awesome!" I agree they are awesome burgers except for the processed cheese. But still awesome.! I really like the fries but really who can eat that many! A small fry is enough for two people. I would of given 5 stars but they aren't cheap. I will definitely be a returning customer again and again. read more

we first heard about "five guys" in kingston where we had a great "burger experience". but we just got back from the new "five guys" in scarborough thoroughly disappointed. a tasteless burger. and soggy fries. this may be the newest franchise under the "five guys" umbrella but they better improve if they want anything more than a "two star" review read more
