A Five Guys just opened in my town. There's been one in the area for a couple of years but I'd only been there once. Well, I went on opening day and the burger was AWESOME. Just delicious.

The french fries are also to die for. I've had them for like 3 days in a row. They are that good.

I'm tempted to go again tonight.

Sounds good,I'll have to give it a try sometime.

i dont get the big deal about five guys.

shake shack was better years ago however if you go to five guys one day and then shake shack the next day...you realize that its not that bad.


blue 9 is also pretty good

I don't get the fuss over Five Guys either. The burgers are good, but not outstanding. The problem is that they cook them well done as a matter of company policy. Red meat should not be well done.

The fries at Five Guys are very good.

Yeah, I agree. And I find them more greasy than juicy.

Barneys Burgers in Berkeley was pretty good

Ray's Hell Burger aka Butcher Burgers in Arlington has tasty burgers - once they start using fresh buns and freshly roasted ingredients, I think they'll be top 3 in the area, including Central.

Too much salt at Five Guys

I keep hearing about this Five Guys place. They seem to be expanding rather rapidly. I don't know where the chain originated, but there's one near me; I'd like to try it out of curiosity. I'm not really a burger guy--only had a burger once in the past year--but I have been craving one lately. I'll post here after I try them.

Has anybody in DC been to this new burger place on Capitol Hill called Good Stuff Eatery? It's owned by a contestant from Top Chef.

We're supposed to be going there (the Good Stuff joint). Next on the burger expedition list. I like the fact that nice burger places are popping up all over.

The word is Michel Richard's third place in DC will be a burger place. He might have been inspired by talking to his pal Keller who's been wanting to do the same out in CA after enjoying his In N Out burger meals.

I've had all the various ridiculously priced burgers around Manhattan with foie gras, truffles, etc., and I have to agree that a standard old burger from a bbq on a plastic plate is my favorite.

I didn't go to Five Guys yesterday but I may head over there soon for dinner.
