| It's a franchise, and like many early-stage franchises they have very uneven quality (probably poor adherence to standards or training). I've heard or read great reviews... tried one out here and it was a very forgettable experience. |

Too pricey for a cheap ass like me.

| It's a good enough burger, but overpriced. And when you round out your meal with fries and a drink, you're approaching the price of a good buffet. It's not worth the price. |

Yes, back in January there was a thread about Five Guys. Mike Brown will love the Five Guys that's relatively near his new house. I will probably bump into him there one of these days... either that or the In-N-Out across the street from the Trader Joes/Mall.

Probably but LG has the most inefficient Search button.

| Ridiculous. I've had both. In N Out takes it every time. Not to mention it's way cheaper. |

For the Five Guy guys.....what toppings and spreads do you get on it?
What's great about In-n-Out is that your burger still looks like a burger when you're almost done. |

Lettuce, Tomatoes, A.1 Steak Sauce, Onions, and sometimes Jalapeno Peppers. The only thing Five Guys has an advantage is the size of the patty, which is 1.5x the size of In N Out's at 4x the price. Otherwise it's way too greasy even for a burger and the bun is nothing next to In N Out's.
The fries taste like cardboard too. How do I know? I was in a rush one time and accidentally ripped off a piece of the cup. I thought it was the skin or something since it tasted the same! |

In N Out > 5 Guys
All day, every day, and twice on Sundays. Dollar for dollar the best tasting burger/fry combo.
While I do like 5 Guys and their cajun fries, the times I've eaten there, their patties were inconsistent (some had seasoning, others didn't)

| I prefer Tommy's over 5 Guys. I really think 5 Guys is overrated. |
