Alright, this one was surprising. I’ve always heard that five guys is a great place, more than great, if anything—perfection. I hadn’t been here since I was a kid so I forgot everything, and after about 20 seconds of me looking at the menu (no line behind me) the cook yells “are you getting just shakes? Or what? A hotdog? What are you getting?” Then, the cashier looks at me and says “are you ordering burgers?” 1 or 2 patty’s?” Like I don’t know I’ve just barely got here, hold on two seconds💀. I was very rushed for no reason. But whatever, that’s not mainly why I rated 2 stars. Mostly it’s because of the price you pay for a burger (I got a bacon cheeseburger) which is about $12, compared to the quality of the food. I’d say the burger tasted the same as a simple sonic cheese burger, and the bacon was so over cooked (In my opinion) that it tasted like crunchy store bought salad bacon bites. The patty itself was good though, and not greasy. The burger isn’t bad, but it’s definitely not worth $12. The most id ever pay for that same burger again is $6, maybe. I also got a peanut butter shake and seasoned fries. The fries were great, although a little over seasoned (some fries were literally powdered in the seasoning and I’d inhale it like powdered sugar and choke hahah). The shake was delicious, very tasty. In the end, I don’t think I’ll be coming back, it’s highly over rated and far too expensive. The fries and shake are good, but not the burgers, which is what they’re...
Read moreTraveled from Chico to Redding to try this burger joint out. As soon as I walked in the door, my nose was assaulted by the smell of freshly cooking burgers and fries. As I walked to the counter, I was stammering to get out my order as I started to drool. After ordering a bacon cheeseburger and fries with a Coke (nothing fancy) I helped myself to the ketchup, BBQ sauce and fry seasoning. My order arrived quickly... and it was on!! The burger was one of the BEST I've tried in years...fresh, seasoned, and perfectly stacked. It felt as if I didn't have to bite the burger as it melted into my mouth. Chewing it was the same reaction. Plenty of toppings sat on the buns and patties, and the bacon was cooked to perfection. Adding BBQ sauce to it would've detracted from the taste, so I saved it for the fries. Wrong!! The Cajun seasoning was best on those, and I just took the sauce home. I left thoroughly satisfied, though wishing I had grabbed a shake instead of the Coke. I would rather drive 70 miles to eat here instead of 3 miles in Chico for In-N-Out. Why not 5 stars!? 1 star HAS to be for the...
Read moreI just left five guys and all I ordered was French frys a drink and a burger it took them so long to make my order I was the only person in there when I finally got my order I opened my bag and the frys were just dumped in the bag nothing to hold them except for a small cup that looked like a scooper I opened my burger and it was a total mess everything was falling out of it the whole entire bun ripped in half I barely even ate it wasn’t even that good when I first walked in though was a worker off the clock standing by the register just talking to other employees and no one helped us for a bit they argued about who should help us once someone helped us i stood around after my order was taken I watched someone throw a bun on the ground and sit on the ground it seemed to me everyone was just...
