Classic Five Guys experience — bold, fresh, and satisfying! Grabbed a cheeseburger and drink at this Five Guys and it hit the spot. The burger was stacked and juicy with crisp lettuce, melty cheese, and all the toppings I love — wrapped in foil, still hot and messy in the best way. The soda machine? Insane variety — flavors I didn’t even know existed! The red-and-white tile decor gives it that classic diner feel, and the place was clean and bright. Great for a casual bite with plenty of seating. Would definitely come back for another burger fix. #FiveGuysCravings #BurgersAndFries #SodaGameStrong #RedWhiteVibes

It was perfect as usually! We are from Belgium and the taste is always the same! My favorite fast food 🤩🤤

We had a pleasant experience enjoying cheeseburgers at this Five Guys location near Chinatown and the city center. The burgers were delicious, combining melted cheese, sautéed mushrooms, pickles, tomato slices, lettuce, and more. The ordering process was efficient, allowing us to place our orders through kiosks or directly with the staff, and our burgers were ready in just a few minutes. While the restroom facilities were clean and well-maintained, we noticed that the seating area could use a bit of attention, prompting us to clean our table before sitting down.

Don’t let the name “little burger” fool you—it’s definitely a full meal! And the large fries? Easily enough for a family of three. Always fresh, juicy, and made to order. Great spot within walking distance of many of the hotels.

First time in a 5guys restaurant ever and I was pleasantly surprised. The staff is kind and helpful. The food is great, best burger I ever had at a chain-franchise type restaurant. The fries are best in class with a huge portion size and the soda machine has options I've never seen and didn't know they existed. Definitely recommend.

Relaxing place to sit, grab a bite, and enjoy a drink. Lots of drinks to choose from. Their different ice tea flavors were yummy. Self ordering terminals make it easy to just ponder at your own pace at what you're in the mood for. Free peanuts, yummy as always. Restrooms are clean. Just note that you need a 4 digit access code for them which cannot be found on the receipt for the self ordering kiosks, but is mentioned on the receipt you get when ordering at the clerk. Pity they didn't have the pieces of paper to draw on with the crayons. This to me is one of the things that makes Five Guys unique and why our kids love going here. By the looks of the few paper drawings on the board and the dates written on them, they've been out of these for a long long time already.

Friendliest set of staff I’ve encountered in awhile. From the point of entry to my exit, I felt very welcome , which isn’t expected from a fast food joint. I was also elated to see patty melts are officially part of the menu since I typically order the grilled cheese w/ a patty on it. My patty melt/fries were fresh and delicious . I’ve been to many five guys both in my hometown in NY and my new home DC , and this was by far my favorite location. Kudos to the staff here!

I don’t go to Five Guys for the customer service. The food is always good. But the pleasant, warm customer service displayed by the gentleman working in the evening with the smooth beard. Top Notch!

As five guys goes this was a normal food experience the burger was good and the fries were as well. The young lady at the counter was pleasant and friendly but she made a huge mistake. We tried to order 2 single burgers 2 medium drinks and 1 medium fry the bill was a few cents shy of $50 bucks. I didn't even question this but it's seemed a bit steep. After her participation in a discussion over getting 1 order of fries she added 3 medium fries to our order. The truth is I only picked up on this when they callled out my order number and gave me 3 bags. The addition charge was $20 bucks. If you work behind the counter you should have an idea when the price is wrong. Okay the boss made it right by charging us for only 1 order of fries but the counter girl did also fail to charge us for our drinks so they left those off the bill too. The food was fine and the dining area is clean and overall this isn't a bad place to grab a quick bite. Just keep an eye on the receipt to avoid paying for stuff you didn't order.

My burger was way over cooked. They left it on the grill too long. Next time I'll tell them to to cook my burger well done. Then they put a head of lettuce on my burger. Just the over all experience could have been a lot better. Not a fan of well done burgers. Five Guys located in China Town, Washington, DC

I came here craving some of the peanuts they're known for and they didn't have any out which was super tragic. I hope this was a case where they were just out of stock rather then not serving them anymore. But I got a cheese burger, fries, and soft drink which came out to $22 (which feels a bit expensive). The burger was really well cooked and the toppings made it taste really good. I love that they have malt vinegar for the fries, and appreciate that they always put an extra scoop of fries in the bag. I know it's a part of their strategy but I can't help but feel giddy.

I've frequented this FIVE GUYS restaurant for several years now, and the burgers and fries are, simply put, among the best. Always fresh, tasty, and DELICIOUS. The staff always does a thorough and timely job of preparing and serving up a meal. Other burger places can learn a lot in terms of quality control from FIVE GUYS.

The burgers here are very good and the staff were friendly, but the burgers were way overpriced in my opinion (16.04 for a double cheeseburger and a bottle of green tea)! As of this writing, there was no recycling bin, so I had to throw my recyclable items away. I think more people and businesses should make recycling a higher priority...

Rude staff and customer service! After ordering my food, I asked for a cup for water and was told to drink rain water! Never eating at this Five Guys again.

i visited this branch for first time,the only thing which disappointed me was the bahavior of their staff mainly fat mexican lady, who bahaved very rudely. i took two extra paper cups and they charged me for that, i did not mind that but they way that lady behaved was absolutely unacceptable. There is something called client orientation which they lack immensely. They should know where they are standing and the importance of the location where they serve people.

Who cannot give five guys a five-star review, the food is always on point the best fries in the whole wide world. The burgers are great and I like that now they have the veggie option for sandwiches. Also the variety of fountain drinks are pretty cool. And this location in specific the one in downtown DC, it's exceptionally great with customer service I have not been there one time without everybody smiling asking how my day was and throwing a joke or two while I waited for my food

This Five Guys location on H Street in DC is a great place to go for delicious and well prepared burgers and fries. They have been consistent in their quality every time I have been here. The staff here is very friendly and makes sure that you are well taken care of.

As much as i don't like to support chains during covid, the times that I've ventured away have burned me for some reason. Truly, great Flavor and consistent quality that you can rely on- i always get the complimentary peanuts too. Byfar my go to for burgers.

My kids and I wanted to grab a quick bite to eat before going to a show at Capital Arena. I imagined it being really hard to find something that was close by and not overly crowded. We saw Five Guys on our way to the parking garage and were lucky enough to come in when 2 large groups were leaving allowing us to easily snag a table. The guy at the counter was so kind, and didn't make me feel rushed at all. We ordered 3 milkshakes and a regular sized fries. The portion of the fries was huge, and even spilled out over the carton into the bag. There was enough for the three of us to share without even running out. I liked how they put a bathroom code on the bottom of the receipt. I'd probably hate that if I wasn't a paying customer, but it worked well for us!

Five Guys exceeded my expectations - the hamburger was great! Juicy and delicious, the service was great. I was the only customer so there was no line when I got and only a few people waiting for food. I also discovered roasted peanuts, too much in while you wait. It wasn't long before my order was ready the crowd showed up. The place was jamming. Overall great experience. The restaurant was clean and service good.

For where this restaurant is located in the city, it is really clean. I had a great experience. I wish I would've gotten the lady's name who took my order, but she was really nice and gave impeccable customer service. Shout out to her. I know she had braids and I good piece on teeth. The food was also good.

We normally love 5 Guys, and the food here does not disappoint. The environment and lengthy, painful procedure waiting to receive your food here makes this a place to which we won't be back. The wait for the food was unusually long for a 5 Guys location, with lots of people who ordered after us (we ordered 5 burgers at 7:30pm on a Saturday night) getting their smaller orders before us. 25 minutes waiting in line on concrete. It was too noisy from the table to be able to hear when your number is called at the counter, so you have to wait, standing, by the counter.) If it's going to take 25 minutes to receive the food, then you should give out numbers and allow people to sit at tables, with the food delivered to the table. Like Best Buns does! After you've been at a convention all day, or walking the city, standing in wait for your food for forever is the last thing you want to do. The place was also unreasonably loud. The waiting area was crowded with - people trying to leave the order placement area and - people trying to get their drinks and - people trying to pickup their food, basically in the same path, gridlocked, due to the potatoes. Put the potatoes in the dining area, there is plenty of room there. Move the drink machines to the dining room wall. Call and electrician and spend 100 bucks to get outlets put in if needed, but do something! My order was ready and the guy kept calling out my number, but I couldn't get to him because there were literally 6 people in front of me trying to either get cokes from the machine or exit after having placed their order. What a mess. a quagmire. a noisy nightmare! Then, when I was finally able to get to the counter, the lady yelled out a number--in my face. in. my. face! super-loud. wow. 5 Guys, you are the pinnacle of fast food and you cannot let this situation continue and mar your reputation, not to mention decrease your profits, which is surely the future if you do not address these problems.

Food is dependable as always even if I had to watch several kitchen staff barter with a guy who had clearly brought stolen laundry detergent into the store to sell. So clearly, the ambience stinks. The restaurant's management need to step it up. This is why the Walgreens' one block away locks absolutely everything up.

Typical fiveguys location. The people here are friendly, food is quick, and hits the spot when you're craving it. Lines go pretty quickly here (or maybe I forget how long I'm there due to the peanut distractions). Also ordered a burger in a grilled cheese recently which was delicious.

Pretty standard for a Five Guys nothing special. My cheeseburger was okay, cooked perfectly, was just a little more messy than I remember. This location is probably busier during lunch and slows down at the end of the day.

I hadn't had Five Guys in years, mainly because I didn't care for it the first few times I tried it, and partly because I was quietly protesting their refusal to incorporate shakes in the menu. But after living in Mexico for over 6 months I was craving a burger while in DC and this was the closest option on a frigid February night. On the wall they proudly display a sign from 2009 that reads "best $5 burger..." That was 2009. That burger is now $6.99. Between a bacon burger and a medium fry, I was down for the count for nearly $15. I was also down for the count after eating. I forgot they load you up with two thin patties for a total weight of what must be 1/2 lb. About the only thing I don't care for beside the prices and lack of shakes is the use of peanut oil for the fries. It has a very distinct favor, though I suppose that's partly what makes this fast food machine unique.

This is what I wrote about the Five Guys at McPherson Square about 5 months ago: --------------------------------------------- Five Guys is an excellent hamburger chain. It does not taste as good as Shake Shack, but it is much cheaper (about 30%-50% less money). It used to dominate the Washington market in burgers, while Shake Shack was very big in New York (where I come from originally). Eventually Five Guys moved into NYC, and Shake Shack became plentiful in DC. Both are very good places to eat, but, if you want the best burgers irrespective of price, you should go to Shake Shack, and however, if you want damn good burgers, and to save money on that meal, you should go to Five Guys. Also, Five Guys is the one with endless free peanuts, which you can have as a free side instead of french fries. That saves still more money. This is a nice, helpful Five Guys; a good place to go. --------------------------------------------- I just went to *this* Five Guys, here in Chinatown, and it is also, a very, very nice place. Furthermore, it is **60%** less money than the nearest Shake Shack (which is good, but just so damn expensive!). Anyway, this is a great place to get a meal.

The first and only Five Guys I'd ever been to before this one was at Gare du Nord in Paris. I was looking for a dinner spot but wasn't looking to leave far from my hotel on H Street. I ordered a small cheeseburger and fries with a soft drink and my husband ordered the same. If you've never been to Five Guys, a small is all you'll need, as it's the same size as a regular, medium, or default at most fast food restaurants and diners. The bill came to $31, which I I thought was a bit steep for fast food. I felt they slightly redeemed themselves upin learning that they offeed free soda refills and that they had various syrups (lemon, lime, vanilla, etc.) to add in. I won't lie, the burger was solid, better than a lot of many so-called trendy places and "best burger" joints I've sampled back home in New York City. It's juicy and soft, and packs flavor. The fries were also good, not greasy, and perfectly salty. Disclosure: I'm not a big fast food eater. In fact, I have't eaten a meal at McDonald's in years. That being said, this is on the higher end of what's considered fast food.

Recently downloaded the app and figured I should use it. I ordered a little cheeseburger and little fries for lunch yesterday via the app. I arrived 5 minutes after my requested pickup time and still had to wait few minutes (I guess that wasn't a big deal...still a shorter wait than if I had ordered in person). My food was good, but these prices keep going up. My lunch cost $12.12 (no drink). I remember when this used to be a cheap burger joint, but not so much now. I will still come back here and there. The place was still packed...

This is, without a doubt, the worst Five Guys experience I have had. The French fries were cold, soggy, and seriously undercooked. They were disgusting (to be kind). Burgers deserve French fries that are edible. Not cold, oil soaked and raw.

Screwed me on my online ordered and made both burgers the same. Apparently they can't read as order receipt clearly stated the 2 different burgers. Did not have time to open each one prior to leaving, saying goes you get screwed at the drive through and works the same for pickup apparently. Bacon Cheeseburger

Unbelievably packed! Right before a basketball game. NC vs VA?! Something like that. The trash can was full and tons of paper bags on the floor. Just a madhouse! Taste: Simply good. The peanut oil fries were not crispy outside but tasty. I'd like to try their vegetarian sandwich next time. Price: Good. Under $10 makes you full. Customer service: OK. They should check bathrooms and trash cans more often. And many greasy tables. Parking lot: Street. Tip: They have free peanuts in front of the cashiers. Pretty tasty;)

I like five guys and I usually get burger or hotdog wrapped with lettuce. Their fries and the base milkshake are gluten free. You can check and search online for gluten free options in five guys.

Very crowded Saturday. But the line moved quickly and our order was out decently fast considering the crowd. Staff is really nice. You really can't go wrong with Five Guys. This is just a bad location because there was a drug addict lookin lady just yelling people's numbers when they didn't pick it up quick enough. She was also waiting over a table that I was sitting at for my group to leave. Can't really keep out the crazies

If you're looking to cool off inside while having a meal, don't bother. This location doesn't believe in AC. It's probably 85 or higher in this place. Either the franchise owner is too cheap to turn it on or refuses to pay for AC repairs. By the way, it's two weeks and counting.

This place hits the spot for a quick, cheap, and tasty meal downtown. You get unlimited toppings on the freshly cooked burgers and you can get the little burger if you aren't starving since the regular features two patties. The fries are always hot and fresh but they can be greasy, especially the tasty cajun flavored. It's a smaller place so it can be packed but you get your food pretty fast. You get all you get all you can eat peanuts while you wait for your food and dine so enjoy.

When I first moved to the DC area, spending $13 for burgers, fries and a drink seemed a little absurd. Having eaten In-N-Out on the west coast, the quality of the burger didn't really blow me away either. However, over the years, I have to say that five guys really did start growing on me. I haven't tried anything other than the burger and fries so that's all I'll talk about. The burger: 2 meat patties with the optional cheese and/or bacon. It is a very substantial burger and eating it without making a mess is almost impossible. They don't ask for temperature on the meat which means it can be overcooked and dry at times, because it's always well done. I suppose better safe than sorry when it comes to eating beef at a chain burger joint. The toppings are generally very fresh and vibrant. I love the option of having grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, and fresh jalapenos on a burger. Other than the occasional dry and overcooked patties, it's a solid burger. $7 isn't too much to ask after you make the mental adjustment to DC restaurant prices. The french fries: The first thing you have to know is that when you order a small fries here, it's enough to feed a table of 4 people. A regular size will last you the rest of the week.... They are well seasoned and often fried perfectly. Crispy on the outside with a soft, melt-in-your-mouth center. I like them as much as fresh McDonald's fries and that's actually a pretty big compliment. Finally, the staff has always been very nice to me at this location. I have been inside 10 minutes before closing before and they were still happy to make me a burger and joke around with me. The interior is clean and tidy and I can always count on using their restroom when I'm lost in the city somewhere... The free peanuts are definitely a nice touch while you're waiting for your burger. Pro Tip: GET THE BACON! Also, if you get the fries to go, don't set the brown paper bag on a nice surface when you get home. The oil seeps through the bag within seconds and will definitely get on your table or car seat! Do what I do and dump it all on a plate before enjoying :) Now that's a pro tip!

I was visiting DC after my long 4-day conference in VA. OMFG! This place was awesome! The burgers were so great, it made me cry! For someone that has great hamberger institutions in Los Angeles / Orange County (In-N-Out Burgers and Tommy's) this is a must for any visit to the east coast. 2 beef patties, homemade style like the Sunday BBQ's dad used to make. Just thick. Mushrooms, grilled onions, the works. My Hotel room smelled like heaven for the night. The burger was so beautiful, I even took a picture of it. I will now sell a kidney to franchise it here! ****UPDATE 03/11/2008 ***** California will be getting its first restaurant soon, per the website. It will be in Carson, just south of LAX. Carson::::if you have seen the original Gone is 60 seconds, it'll be all familiar.

I love burgers, period. If it were a bacon cheeseburger, even better. I am from California and won't get into the In-n-Out vs Five Guys debate. They both are great burgers for their own reason. Since Five Guys was walking distance from the hotel I was staying at, I bypassed all of the great sit down restaurants, room service, and other great Yelp reviews. Why? Can't pass up a Bacon Cheeseburger with Cajun Fries. I even love the discreet paper bag they put it in, although the grease of the fries may have gave it away. Yes, lots of fries, could feed 2-3 people. I ordered a regular size burger (which is two patties). It may cost a bit more than In-n-Out but there is a bit more selection here as well. Sorry hotel room service. I'll get some exercise (walk 2 blocks) and not pay the extra service charges.

I'm not much of a burger and fries type of guy, but I went here before the new year to get the bad eating out of my system. On a rare hankering for burgers and fries, I knew that 5 guys would be the spot to go. I've only been a few times, but they are solid each time. The burgers are quality, fresh, beefy, and the fries are abundant and cooked to perfection. 5 guys should be your go-to spot for some good ole, American burgers and fries.

I came here for a quick meal and I was surprised by the quality of the food. At first, this place didn't really look like much, until I walked in a saw the amount of business they had. I was amazed I didn't really expect many people to come here. When I got on the line the wait wasn't bad, it was a pretty average wait time. I got my food within 10 minutes of ordering. The food was amazing and the service was great. Since then, I've come here a few times now and the food quality has been consistent. This Five Guys location is a very nice place to grab a meal if you're on the go. No complaints from me!

I haven't had a burger in a while especially one like In-And-Out so I figured I'd stop by and give it a go. I was not disappointed with the meal. I got a cheeseburger with lettuce, tomatoes, and grilled onion, fries, and a soda. The burger was very good, much like a cheeseburger animal style at I&O. I liked the fries here better too. Your heart won't suggest that you eat here often but your tastebuds will.

SoCal has their IN and OUT. NoCal has their NATIONs. DC has their FIVE GUYS and they did not disappoint me!!! I decided to try their NORMAL size bacon cheeseburger with everything on it. That included grilled onions and mushrooms free of charge. FRESH GROUND BEEF and a big beef patty portion! Juicy, hefty burger INDEED! FIVE GUYS BURGERS ARE ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! It blows In and Out out the door! Had an early morning flight back to SF. There was a Five Guys at Dulles-Washington Airport, opened at 5am. This time, I ordered a MINI bacon cheeseburger with everything on it. =) Mmm, not so mini! This is one meal that I will definitely miss from the East Coast! I LOVE YOU FIVE GUYS!

Okay yes, these are the closest thing you can get to in-n-out of the east coast. Now that that is out of the way, its also VERY different. Oh yeah, I'm a born and raised Bay Area kid, so I'd say I can make a fair comparison having lived off double doubles animal style through college. First of all the major disappointment here is pricing. Sure, $7 for a big burger chock full of options, a soda, and small fries isn't too bad, but I'd like it more within the $5 range. $5 just feels like a magic sticking point for price. Second disappointment is probably the bun. Yeah I seem like a burger snob, but its just that a sesame bun that is flattened and has no real give can make a difference...it just screams Costco buns. Bright spots - super customizable: bacon, relish, hot sauce, a-1, onions, mushrooms (FINALLY!!!), mayo, etc highlight the customization. I LOVE that a regular burger is actually a double stack burger....its a slap in the face served by five-guys to those health nuts eating burgers. I wish every place served "regular" burgers as double burgers. Thats right, if you are eating a single patty burger, you should be labeled as eating a "little" burger. love that touch. The fries, had potential. At first glance I was super excited by "cajun" style fries. The fries themselves are super thick cut and have the skins on the ends, which is a great touch. But cajun seasoning just didn't blow me away. Need more bay, maybe some cayenne pepper, and itd be perfect. Cajun spices gotta make my fries SALTY so that I can wash it down with cold cold soda. Service is quick, they take credit card, and the final product is very satisfying. Oh yeah, definitely get a sauce. But overall, I'm a fan of Five Guys. Its everywhere, so it must be damn good, and you know what? It beats a $12 burger at a restaurant any day.

OK... I'm walkin' in DC last week and see this 5 Guys. I've read about this chain on the internet as being THE BEST. Personally, I was and still am an In & Out fan. The bacon-cheesburger was very, very good... but it was stuffed in the bottom of the bag and resembled a "ball of cheeseburer"! It literally was completely round? Is that normal? I also ordered regular fries and when I opened the brown bag, there were fries everywhere. They come in a cup, but there was also double the cup amount on top... of course the burger was buried on the bottom. The taste of everything was really hot and tasty, but the "presentation" if you will, was sorely lacking for a dine-in order. When finished, the bag was engulfed in grease, but hey, it's burger and fries.

I love this 5 guys! This is my favorite location in nova/D.C. The food is amazing five guys quality always piping hot and these guys get orders out fast! Not only that they are super courteous here and it's a nice change for D.C. where you get a lot of apathetic workers at these fast casual places.

This was a hefty burger (half pound?) and just way too much meat for me. Plus it was a little on the dry side. I guess I'll stick with Shake Shack.

I don't go to Five Guys often (food's too rich) but when I do I'm always satisfied. That's all you should ever want in a burger; BEEF SATISFACTION. I like the Five Guys model also: come in, order a burger totally the way you want it, step back while it's prepared fresh, and eat peanuts! I ordered a regular burger with LTM and pickles and a regular order of fries with a regular drink. I do think $15.70 is a bit on the pricey side but you are in DC. Next time I'll order small fries because they give you A LOT!

I have heard people call the "Five Guys" the "In-N-Out of the East Coast." Well, I am not sure what they have in common besides serving up really good burgers. But I'll use In-N-Out (INO) as a comparison point in order to help the my Bay Area Yelpers get a better feel for what Five Guys Famous Burgers and Fries (FGFBAF) has to offer. Burgers: At FGFBAF, the burgers here are more expensive than at INO. They are also a lot bigger too. The ground beef in my burger was great. It was fresh, huge, juicy, and delicious. That's what she said! Special fixings: Ordering your burger "Animal Style" at INO loads up on lettuce, tomatoes, grilled onions, and Thousand Island. In the end, it adds flavor to your burger and I order it every single time. At FGFBAF, you have tons of options. If you just ask for them all of the topping options you get a burger topped with lettuce, ketchup, hot sauce, bacon, mushrooms, cheese, and just about anything else they have available to them. It's pretty freakin' sweet. Fries: At INO, the fries are fresh and tasty. At FGFBAF, you get the option of regular and Cajun fries. The former is tasty, the latter is amazing. I love the Cajun seasoning. For whatever reason, you never run out of fries. It is a super huge serving of them. I suggest if you come with people, to only order one serving of fries per 2 to 3 people. Also, I like how they list where the potatoes are from that day. A lot of meat joints tell you where the steak is coming from, so why don't restaurants brag about where the veggies are coming from, even if they are fried veggies? Soda: Pretty much the same deal at both spots: super sweet and full of calories. But hey, that's why I go diet every time at "fast food" joints. I am watching my figure. And by watching, I mean, just watching myself become fatter every single day in the mirror. Extras: At FGFBAF, you get free peanuts. It was nice to just munch on peanuts while I waited for my burger. Yum. Oh yeah, they serve hot dogs at FGFBAF. Unfortunately, no milk shakes though. Weird. In the end, FGFBAF is nothing like INO. I can't say which is better, but all I know is, I am a freakin' fan of Five Guys! High five to Five Guys! Woo hoo!
