Five Guys — Restaurant in Rancho Cucamonga

While writing these reviews, I'll occasionally find myself thinking about the person reading them. I imagine someone never having been to Five Guys. And, honestly, that just makes me sad. I imagine them thinking to themselves, "Hmm, I wonder if I should go to this dining establishment everyone is raving about all the time. I wonder if it's really as good as everyone says. Hmm... Let me check those reviews on the Google." Bruh, if you're reading this review right now, let me say something to you. Drop what you're doing and go. Just go. Stop thinking about going. Stop mulling it over and go. You won't regret it. These hamburgers are ridiculous. The fries are life changing (get them Cajun style). They have a freestyle Coke machine that will allow you to create any drink with any combination of flavors you can imagine. They literally have boxes and boxes of FREE peanuts that you can eat while waiting for your food. You want to take some peanuts home? So you know what happens when you ask for a little bag for those nuts? They give you one! It's insane. I don't know what else to say to you right now. Why are still reading this? Go...

For perspective, In-N-Out hamburger has increased $0.55 to $2.95. Update 9/2/22: Little hamburger is still $6.49. Update 11/26/22: Little hamburger is still $6.49. Update 1/26/23: Google wants to know what's new. It's a new month and 5 Guys has new prices. For example, the little hamburger has increased 40 cents...it's now $6.89. It's become...

One of the hottest restaurant chains in the world, Five Guys has opened more than 1,000 locations since its 1986 debut in the Washington, D.C., area, and claims to have another 1,500 in development. Famously named after the four brothers who founded it and the father who backed their concept, it was long considered a regional chain, having spread up and down the Eastern Seaboard. But Five Guys has gone truly nationwide and now lists locations in just about every continental U.S. state. Despite this rapid spread, Five Guys tends to elicit much more passion than its more corporate competition. In the case of Five Guys, the avid loyal following comes thanks to some simple but important tweaks on the fast food burger model -- namely cooking to order, very generous portions, fresh fries, free peanuts and a...
