Hey, we're getting a Five Guys in town! This'll be interesting as they'll be competing directly with an In-N-Out less than a mile away!

Five Guys > In-N-Out.

Both, while good, will never elevate above a fast food burger. Just a different thing.

true..... You just figured out my budget, didn't you.... Big Grin

I agree, Jamie. Five Guys, in the realm of upper end fast food, is top notch.

In Austin, we have both Five Guys and Top Notch. The drive-in featured in the movie Dazed and Confused is Top Notch.

When you're in Austin, you need to try these burger joints:

Casino El Camino
Billy's on Burnet
Your Mom's

Any one of them will make you forget you ever heard of Five Guys.

I recently tried Five Guys and while I thought it was a good burger,
not quite as good as In n Out.
and neither are anywhere as good as Hodads in San Diego, or Slaters 50/50

I'm hungry, I think it's almost lunch time.

To me... if you are eating Five Guys you might as well be eating McDonald's or Burger King. The truth is it's not much better than those.

Oh, man, I couldn't disagree with this more. I'll never argue the merits of 5 Guys over a burger joint like The Vortex here in Atlanta, but for fast food, I think it's leaps and bounds better than other places... especially McDonald's or Burger King. I feel the same about In-N-Out when compared to McDonald's or Burger King.

I've only tried it once and I wasn't impressed... wouldn't go back for another try based on how many great gastropubs around here serve amazing burgers. For another buck or two I am eating some top quality beef and amazing toppings.

Yeah, Matt, I think you are missing the point. There isn't a single one of us that if faced with chosing between a fast-food burger and a pub burger, wouldn't chose the better. I do agree with Jamie though. The notion of comparing Five Guys seems a bit rediculous, like the food or not.

Just found out about a place not too far from my work called Oh My Burger that looks to be pretty good. They even make the Krispy Kreme donut burger -

As sinful as they are, Krispy Kreme Donut Burgers are an absolute delight.

I think it got mentioned before, Norm loves the turkey burgers there,
the one in Huntington Beach has tons of old surf records, and surf movie posters.
a must see if you come to Ca. for the SG101 convention.
