Imagine biting into two big juicy all-beef patties topped with cheddar cheese and layer upon layer of bacon followed by 15 toppings, all between a toasted sesame seed bun.
If you can imagine that, then you’re eating at Five Guys.
This burger joint located on Regent Avenue has a clean, bright, red and white decor with friendly staff. As for the food, it is fresh, made-to-order and cooked in front of you.
If you’re a champ, order the regular Five Guys Bacon Cheeseburger ($8.59) and expect to get the burger described above.
If you can’t eat a burger so large, and wimp out like me, then go with the Little Bacon Cheeseburger ($6.59), which is a single patty.
The regular sized Five Guys Fries ($3.49) are a mountain of homemade potatoes fried in peanut oil.
The fries were good but I wish they were crispier. I think a double fry would have helped them tremendously.
Overall, Five Guys gets a high five.
