Five Guys — Restaurant in Fremont

I really don’t like writing negative reviews. It’s so cliche to just get online and rant and rave, burying a company. So let’s start with the positives. The employees were professional and friendly. The food wasn’t bad, but the advertising is misleading in that they claim to be gourmet burgers, but they’re basic fast food burgers with a larger selection of condiments and toppings. The restaurant was clean as well. But at a time when you can get a truly gourmet burger with endless fries from at least three different restaurants for $12 or less and my meal - two burgers and two fries - cost nearly $50? After paying I felt like I bought dinner for five guys. The prices do not reflect the quality of food and NO fast food restaurant should sell burgers at this cost. A child’s cheeseburger cost more than $10. Ridiculous. Ready to die on this hill.

As an added note, my friend was trying to order a hot dog for his kids and asked how big the hit dog was. Was it big enough for two toddlers to share or would he need two? No one at the counter could answer that question. They offered to show him the bun length, but not the actual hot dog itself. Strange.

I really wanted to enjoy this experience, but when I can get a better burger with endless fries at a national restaurant for less cost? This one guy won’t be taking his family...

I popped in for the first time and decided to grab a veggie burger paired with some Cajun fries to take home. The staff turned out to be incredibly friendly, and they were super cool about accommodating my last-minute changes. I'd give them a solid 5 out of 5 for their service.

On the flip side, the food didn't quite match up to my high hopes, which were fueled by all the fantastic things I'd heard about this place. Unfortunately, the food ended up being more on the average side of things.

The Cajun fries were tasty, although they leaned a bit toward the softer side. I couldn't help but wish they came with some kind of special sauce – something more than just the usual ketchup. I'd rate the fries a 4 out of 5.

Now, onto the burger adventure. The bun sadly turned out to be quite soggy, and despite the burger's smaller size, it managed to create quite the mess. However, in terms of flavor, I have to say it held its own and earned a respectable 4 out of 5 in...

Five Guys is one of the best fast food chains in the burger industry. Everything is made out of peanut oil and the way they prepare food is amazing.

I got here and am the only one in the restaurant during the night. I also like how the place is very clean like they never left a spot hanging. The theme of the restaurant fits to the atmosphere of a burger place since its colors are red and white.

Ordered small fries and man…the portion is really big for something that is supposed to be a size of small. Also, if I remember correctly, the cheeseburger has two patties while a little cheeseburger only has one. I guess that they don’t like calling a cheeseburger a double cheeseburger and a little cheeseburger a...
