    The food is great. I'm normally there once a week. I love the strawberry colada and the banana split.

The food won't necessarily blow your socks off-- however it is consistently good, a lot of vegan/gluten free/etc options, lots of cocktail and beer options, and even the pickiest of eaters could find something they enjoy there. Our waiter this last time was outstanding. I noticed on their menu they also have specials including Thursdays where they do a hot chicken sandwich and beer for a cheaper price. They also have a solid happy hour.

It's a very popular restaurant, so today, when we entered, while we were greeted right away, there was a 30 minute wait. The time actually went by relatively fast, and by the time we were seated, large cups of ice water were already there at our table, as well as a carafe to refill them. There's no physical menus, instead you scan a QR code which brings you to their menu. They have lots of drink options, including several specialty cocktails, beers, and ciders. Our waiter was super sweet and attentive, and the food came out relatively quickly. For my drink, I ordered a local cider from a Virginia ciderie, as well as the It's A Wrap, which has cheddar, ranch, mixed greens, tomatoes, onions, peppers, and your choice of protein (I got tofu). I also got a side of the Mac and cheese, which I could tell was made in house. Super creamy and flavorful with a hint of spice. My wrap was also insanely good! I'm impressed by the amount of vegetarian options here. Any burger can be made both gluten free or vegan, and the choices of protein make it more accessible for everyone who comes in. I'm really happy we were recommended this place!

    I'll take some blame for the 3 star review because I arrived at this establishment directly from…read morethe DMV. I spent a lot of time at the DMV, and got very little accomplished. So I thought maybe there was a solution. But sometimes it's just not meant to be. My fat friend Sam, as well the maintenance man where I work, had highly recommended Slay Burgers. The maintenance man, Tito, had much more enthusiasm about the establishment. With that being said, he isn't nearly as fat as my fat friend Sam so I was a little skeptical. Once I arrived, I was eager for a beer. If only my fat friend Sam would have warned me this is not the spot to go to right after the DMV. It's not a sit down spot, but my fat friend Sam recently stopped drinking. I often forget that. so now, I decide to shake things up a little, and get two bacon and two doubles cheeseburgers. This way I can try the bacon first and if I like it, I claim it. If I don't, we all split. So naturally, I start eating in the car. As I bite into the bacon cheeseburger, I try to convince myself I like it. But three bites in, I know we're all splitting this lunch. I lie to the family and tell my Dad the Bacon Burger is good. "Let's all split." He plays along with it knowing the bacon cheeseburger is unfortunately, a bad burger. The smash burger, I enjoyed. I will be going back to Slay Burgers. This one is on my Fat friend Sam. Unfortunately, he did not preface me on the ambiance. I look forward to knowing there is a shot clock when I arrive at the window.

So freaking good. Bacon was chopped up, first time I've had it like that on a burger and honestly it's genius. You get bacon with every bite and dont have to worry about pulling a piece completely off your burger when you take a bite. Spicy chicken was super tasty, had a really good favor. But, while you could taste spice, it was definitely on the mild side. Onion rings were crispy. The gals at the counter were super sweet too. Great on the go dinner spot for us on our roadtrip. Recommend!!

    Coronavirus? No worries! Five guys to the rescue!…read moreIn the past 2 weeks I've driven past this 5G a handful of times, and each time noticed the huge OPEN sign in the window as well as the lit neon sign in the window. Yesterday I needed victuals after leaving the nearby Dollar Tree, so I swung around 5G. They looked dead. Then I saw the lit neon sign, and parked my car. A young lady unlocked the front door, stuck her head out and told me they were taking online orders only. I said, "Can I just tell you what I want?" She replied, "Sure, just give me a minute." She went back inside, got a notepad and came back to about six feet from my window. I gave her my order; she returned inside. While I waited, a few other cars pulled up and she delivered the orders to their cars. I waited perhaps a total of 10 minutes, and the same gal -- Alexis, according to my receipt -- brought my order out to me. It was a touch-free transaction. I brought my dinner back to the Hyatt and enjoyed every bite of the burger & fries. Alexis is my hero for the day!

The food was as expected, got a crap ton of extra fries in the bag with that good ghetto grease on it letting you know both your taste buds and your cholesterol numbers are in for a wild ride. Employees weren't very friendly at all, they did their jobs and were not mean or anything. Just took the order and filled it. No conversation or small talk/niceties or anything. If they were slammed I'd understand however I was literally the only customer in there. Period.
