Everyone who knows me knows I like hamburgers. So I finally tried out the new Five Guys in town. Frankly, I thought it was dreadful. Utterly dreadful.
Part of the problem was the 80s hair metal playing over the PA. Made it seem like a community college party in a double-wide, you know? Anyway, the fries were good, but the burger was bland and really overcooked. Really overcooked. It was like a cafeteria hamburger, really. Like when they have about 40 patties stacked up in a banquet dish, over a sterno can? And they've been there for awhile? Like since maybe yesterday? They were like that.
The real kicker was the cashier who took my order. I walk up, and the guy goes, "have you ever been to Five Guys before?" And I said "no." And he said "Well, welcome! So, would you like me to explain the menu?" Which was one of the stupidest things I've ever heard because all they have are burgers, fries and coca-cola products. Like, was he going to explain what a Sprite® was?
Anyway, he seemed a bit peevish, and he looked just like Axl Rose. Which went with the music. Which went with nothing I have good feelings about.
So I was bitterly disappointed, because I thought this was going to be my new burger place in town. Instead it will be one of the many places I manage to avoid.

I tried the 5 guys in downtown Detroit. It was trash.
Personally, I prefer the Sliders and Shawarma from Bucharest Cafe.

I enjoyed the story. The despair of the protagonist was very real.

Nobody told me that a burger at 5 Guys is actually a double. You have to order a mini for a single overpriced burger. Also, an order of fries can fill a lunchbox. If you go alone you spend $15 on a burger and end up tossing 75% of the fries because there are too many. Overrated.

Ha Ha, tried it for the first time this weekend as well.
-Overpriced, processed, bland.
i can see the attraction if your a teenager, but even then it's probably out of their price range.

the first time I was in a Burger King the fat women at the counter was so annoying that I walked out. I orderd 3 things and for everything she asked "bacon?" "cheese?". I said after the first one that I dont want anything else, just what I ordered. She kept going and when she asked me the fifth time I just turned around and went away.
