    I like when places do something simple and do it right. Five Guys is such a place. Burgers, fries, and little else. I was pleasantly surprised to find an outpost of this DC/VA chain in NW Indiana. Fresh ingredients, solid burgers, great toppings like grilled mushrooms and onions, awesome fries, and free roasted peanuts. Burgers are like pizza in that there are countless variations on the theme and everyone has their preferred style (like those West Coasters loyal to In-and-Out), but for my money, this place has the best chain burgers and off-the-chart fries. There's a reason this place tops the Zagat survey for best fast food chain, best burger, and comes in just behind McDonalds for Best Fries. Note: The regular fries are more than enough for two people and the large serves like four people.

    Wow, I don't get it. How does this place get good ratings?? The only conclusion I can come to is that there isn't much in this area, except chain restaurants and buffets, so people just don't know good food around here. When there are signs in the windows, quoting people who worship the restaurant, I get worried...They also had a sign that said "Zagat Rated," but the rating wasn't on there. It's a fast-food joynt and that's fine. We just wanted a good burger. They have two choices in size. The regular and the small. The difference between the two? One patty or two patties. They cook them all well-done. Lots of topping options, but the toppings were obviously cooked way sooner than we were served, and you could tell that the "grilled onions" had been sitting in a vat for a while. They were basically just soggy and not hot either. They also put the BBQ sauce on top of the cheese, making it soggy too. They don't even toast the buns, so everything about this burger was just soggy! Here's what really pissed us off: The girl behind the counter said,"Would you like fries with those?" (They don't tell you that fries come with each burger!) So we said yes and viola! We ended up with two HUGE brown bags, filled with fries and a "cup" of fries was in each bag too. WAY TOO MANY fries! Ironically, they were the only thing worth eating. I didn't even finish the burger. It wasn't good. The total price, for two burgers (one regular and one small), two fries, a water, a pop? $21. TOO MUCH.... I'm sad that yet another NW Indiana restaurant doesn't know what it's doing and I have been suckered once again. They'll get over it. The place was packed. My advice for a good burger? Save some money and go to Schoop's. They're better and cheaper!

    I was expecting a really good burger with all the hoopla. I thought everything was just awful! First of all, you walk in, the music is so loud and playing horrible 80's rock music. Second of all my double hamburger was so small and dry, I left feeling very unsatisfied. Thirdly, the fries totally suck! They are undercooked and tasteless. It cost $ 19.94 for a double patty hamburger $ 4.99, and double patty bacon cheeseburger $ 6.29, a small order of fries, two large iced teas at $ 2.09 each. Ridiculous! My husband said his bacon cheeseburger was horrible also. If I want to spend that kind of money for a GOOD hamburger, I would rather go to any Schoop's in the area. Even Burger King and McDonalds is better than this crap! I would have given it 0 stars!

    More expensive than other burger joints, but you get what you pay for...Order it up how you want it & receive a juicy burger made your way. Tons of fries in a small order and a massive amount of choices in beverages. Oh! Don't forget the free peanuts! Love this place. I always get a burger with mushrooms, peppers, onions, & A1 sauce. It's like eating a steak burger. So good!!!!! Their sweet tea is my beverage of choice here.

    The staff was excellent and accommodated us with our special request of fries! Fries cooked to a delightful crisp and taste! My son said, his burger was fresh and spicy just like he likes it! Always a treat to have some free salted roasted peanuts!

    Holy sweet Jesus! I have not been here for quite some time. Honestly I just came here tonight because I was craving a burger and Schoops in Schererville was closed for remodeling. It is dead in here tonight, seriously there are tumbleweeds of peanuts swirling around. I am happy to say that I asked if they could salt my fries lightly and they did. I swear if you so not ask you get fries that look like they've been dumped into beach sand. P.S. I forgot how big a large fry was!!! I think they cut up a bag of potatoes. The burger cost more than what I would get at Schoops and smaller too but it's still very tasty. The QUEEN of my visit is the new Coke-Cola machines. I don't drink much pop anymore. They FREAKING have seltzer water!!!! Whooot whoot!! I made my own "Italian Soda" with the cherry lemon aide. Diet pop drinkers will also be happy because they don't just have diet coke but diet lemonades, flavored waters, and other diet drinks! Epic!

    Super yummy and satisfying!!! They also accommodate dietary needs (gluten free!) and take it seriously. I love the lettuce wrap cheeseburger & fries!!!! I get it every time! They have so many ingredients you can personalize, it's my go-to burger place! The service is nice and it's clean inside the restaurant and they play good music. Plus, the staff says goodbye to you when you leave and its an all around great experience.

    How many guys does it take to make a GOOD burger? Well, five, of course, duh! GOOD burgers. Not great. The absolute BEST part of it all, FREE toppings. Bf's Burger: Double w/ just pickles n mayo. My burger: cheese,pickles, mayo, onions, mushrooms. During this little feast my whole body was temporarily sedated with the flavors meshing together in my mouth. This place lost a star for have a dirty pop station, terrible seating arrangement, and an overall not so friendly dine-in space.

    Overrated. Burger is alright but expensive. I enjoy a Culver's burger much more for a chain burger.

    Burger Crawl 2014. 3 months and 42 pounds later in my lifestyle change, I made the decision that it's time to splurge. I love burgers, as stereotypically American as that sounds, it's true. To find the one true burger joint of Northwest Indiana, you need guts. You need charisma. You need an empty stomach because boy howdy, are you in for a rude awakening. Full disclosure, I've been to all 3 restaurants before, but this is the first time I sat down to all 3 at the same time. For each burger joint I ordered a specialty burger (had to include something special which would cost extra) and Fries. However as close as these places were, I'm certain there was still some quality loss traveling between burger joints. I had an insulated bag on hand to try to keep everything as hot as possible upon taste test. While the load capacity of my stomach is considerably smaller than that of my "not so golden days" I was able to at least try each burger & fries and give my thoughts against each other. And after comparing all 3, 5 Guys Burger and Fries is my leading front-runner thus far. Last on my stop, and at the most expensive of the lot, coming in at $11.11 ( BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger & Cajun Fries) I had actually put in an online order for this location to be picked up at 11:15. I say don't bother with online ordering it's a waste of time and they didn't even start my order when my scheduled pick up time was. 5guyBurgfry is greasy burger goodness through and through, but it's a good greasy. As if you couldn't tell by that grease speckled brown paper bag they hand you. You might remember the distain I had for the burgers at smash-mouth for a similar reason, but these are nothing like that. Once you unwrap that tin foil cover and you see all that cheese which is now infused with the meat and BBQ sauce, you know you're in for a treat. Seems like they're on to something with that tin foil wrap, it's like a secondary oven, which gives it that soft gooey goodness. BBQ sauce is boss and left me licking the plate wanting more, but I couldn't, It was just too much. Burgers are BIG...not like flat out big like Schoop's, but like a ball of meat BIG and unless you're the 3rd moon of Jupiter, it's sure to satisfy most. Be warned, burgers by default are 2 patties, so if you want something smaller you can request the single. Like I stated earlier, I had to drive to these locations so some quality may have been lost along the way. This rings especially true to everyone's French Fries. Those Fries those damn fries. I was in the mood for a change up so I ordered Cajun instead of the regular, and I'll tell you that was one difficult drive home without digging into that bag. The smell is absolutely intoxicating. It literally smelled like ramen noodle soup and potatoes had a baby. Ok, maybe an off-putting analogy, but accurate, and it smelled delicious. Sadly this was the best thing about them. Fries were just above average. The Cajun seasoning was pretty salty. So salty in fact that it was enough to make me feel the need to wash it down with something whenever I grabbed a few. 11 bucks is nothing to sneeze at for a 1 person lunch and that's without a drink, but I believe it was well worth it. Out of all the burgers joints, 5guys was the only one I finished. I only have limited space in my stomach for rent now, so I only accept quality tenants. 5 Guys may not be 5 stars, but it's pretty damn close.

    Burger and fries are ok but not worth the money. For dining in no trays?!? All my food was thrown in a brown paper bag. High end prices but not high end service.

    This place is great! I've heard good things about Five Guys and finally when I was pregnant, I was dying to see what all the hype was about. The whole experience was pretty cool. When you walk in & order there are peanuts for the taking while you wait. You can watch the cooks cook your burgers while you wait and everyone working there just looked like they were having fun. The place is lined with boxes of potatoes they use for fries and a board has written on it where the latest batch of potatoes they're using were bought. Got the Cheeseburger with everything on it (to die for) and a large order of fries. By the time I was walking out, I thought maybe my baby had developed a late twin! So delicious and filling. Definitely will order the regular size next time. My fiance was full by the time we left, and let me tell you that is hard to do. Great atmosphere, great food, good prices. Would recommend to anyone who likes a good burger n fries.

    By far the best burger I've ever had! Their menu may be small but they have perfected PERFECTED what they serve. I went one time with some vegetarian friends of mine and they loved the veggie option.

  • Melissa H.

    Man o man!!! Seriously every time we go our burgers are hot,juicy and delicious. I could eat one every day if it didnt mess up my cholestrol and figure! I don't like onions on my burger but everything else on it was scrumptious and didn't take away the flavor. Now their fries are just ok but they give you enough for two people so if you're like me, you can afford to throw away the icky ones. Go see for yourself...i mean go taste for yourself.

    So I stopped by a few weeks back! The service was friendly and speedy. The burger was the shiiiizzzzz. I stopped by on a Saturday evening for a bite and left satisfied! This location is clean. Not a lot of traffic when I stopped by which was around 5pm. Will hopefully make it back before I become a Vegetarian :)

    Haven't been to Five Guys in about six months. We ordered one burger with all the free toppings and one burger with bacon, lettuce, and tomatoes. Plus a small fries and a large drink. The first thing that we noticed were the size of the two burgers and fries. They were so small! Before, their burgers were bigger and the small fries were enough to feed two people easily. Unfortunately, the price didn't equal the size of the burgers and fries.

    I finally tried this place and totally forgot to yelp about it. I loved their burgers, sure they're a little greasy, but that's how I like em. I'll be back for sure when I'm in town.

    Really don't understand all the hype. Good food, hot n tasty, but for the price ($19.75 for two burgers, two large cokes and an order of fries) give me Schoops in nearby Munster, IN any day.

  • Jennifer G.

    Simple. Good. I made the mistake of going a little overboard with the toppings, which is hard not to do when they have so many and so I had to deal with the sloppy factor but everything was very fresh and very good. The cajun fries are a little spicier than I expected but so good and the regular fries were excellent. Love the peanuts while you are waiting and the free refills are awesome when you make the mistake of ordering jalapenos and hot sauce on your burger and misjudging how hot that will really be!

    Best damn burger around town... Love their cajun fries.

    I thought the burger and fries were just ok. They do give you lots of options without the extra costs so that a plus. Employees were friendly and quick.

  • C. S.

    Love the fries, Love the burger!! Hand made flavor, topping choices are plenty, fries are fresh cut, they even tell you where the potatoes of the day came from!! I ordered food to go, they offered me water while I waited, they also offered peanuts to snack on. Its made to order so expect to wait 5-10 minutes depending on lines. Reminds me a lot of In and Out Burger in the West, simple menu, wam bam thank you ma'am quick but FRESH food! Will be seeing you again! FYI: 2 burgers and LARGE fries cost around $13. The fries feed 4, we just like leftovers! And if your ultra hungry, then you go for the double burger and that is upwards of $5 by itself. $13 spent here is WAY more quality than $13 at MC'd or BK!

    I love burgers and was ecstatic when this place opened up close by. While I am not a stranger to the place, (I have gone to the Oak Park, Lincoln Park, and Orland locations prior) and it definitely is the exact same as the other ones (not a bad thing). If one is looking for a Schoop's burger, it is definitely way different from them. Again, I guess the trend of using 'fresh' ingredients holds true here as well - meat is never frozen, fresh tomatoes, onions, and lettuce are used as well. While Schoop's have the loose meat sort'a deal which makes the burgers bigger vertically, 5G stacks em pretty high esp once you start adding a lot of toppings they offer. Fries and nice and crispy and have found them to be a hit or miss among friends. They are pretty generous with them though, bc even when they fill up a cup of them, they put in an extra scoop in the bag for you! However, expect to share em if you eat with somebody... 4-star bc it was definitely over-hyped, but to be honest with you it is the best around the area - considering there's white castle's, culvers, mcdonald's around there, that's really not saying much. But it definitely delivers everytime, and hits the spot whenever I go!

    Good burgers. Greasy great for a hangover cure!!! Better if you eat them there... One order of fries will feed a small army.

    This was probably the most mediocre Five Guys (Fat Guys) I've been to. The fries were not seasoned at all and had a weird taste, and the burger was so greasy that I spent most of the time cleaning my messy self up! However, I love their hot dogs and service and if their burger is even remotely made correctly, then it's awesome. For now, just a run of the mill three star experience. I kind of miss the old Blockbuster.

    Let me start by saying that the burgers at "Five Guys" are solid, good burgers. Are they anything above and beyond special? For me? No. It might be that I have always been and "In 'n' Out" burger gal and anytime I am out on the west coast a visit is usually in the cards. Sorry, but In'n'Out is just the best. Ok, I'm partial. So there. The Five Guys burgers we had literally fell apart (and I was cautious not to overdo the toppings for just that reason). The buns turned into pink lumps of dough halfway through. Granted, it was highly edible pink dough, but nevertheless it wasn't the most pleasant way to do cheeseburger. If you want a great burger in Indiana...go to Schoops, it's worth the hoopla. Five Guys? Meh.

    tasty burger with numerous toppings to choose from. i wouldn't say it was greatest i've had or that it lived up to all hype. the fresh cut fries were greasy and lacked flavor. i'd rather grab a schoops burger....plus it would of saved me a few bucks. fives guys is expensive.

  • Mark W.

    Awesome burgers! They taste just like an In-N-Out burger, and the prices are 4 to 7 dollars. The only thing I didn't like was their fries, they were a bit soggy and undercooked. The staff is fast, friendly, and helpful. The dining room is clean and well designed.

    This is the perfect example of how people in Northwest Indiana crap their pants every time a big-city, trendy restaurant comes to the region. (For other examples, just look at the absurdly long lines that swirl outside the doors of Coldstone Creamery in Dyer and Portillo's in Merrillville. God help us if a Sonic should ever come to the region.) For whatever reason, NWI people think, "If it's in Orland Park or Chicago, it must be the best place EVER." Let's just take a look at Five Guys and determine if it really is as marvelous as the local press says it is, shall we? The food. Wow. That was actually a pretty darn good burger for a fast food joint. I'll give them that. You know what, though? I've had better burgers. And for less money. One of the biggest turn-offs of this place was the price of their food. I think I ended up ordering a "junior" size and still came out to an unreal amount of money. Same deal with the fries. Sure, they were pretty good--maybe above average--I don't even remember because they weren't that memorable. But I think that when I pay a hefty amount for fast food, that food better wow me. The restaurant itself was a little messy and disorganized. I felt like it didn't have enough seating and if I remember correctly, the seats and chairs were all made of flimsy plastic. If they're charging six clams for a junior burger, I'm sure this joint could scrap out a few bucks for some decent furniture. Then, there was the whole deal with the peanuts. It really kind of grossed me out. Giant boxes full of peanuts in a burger place don't sound that appetizing. And this was the type of place that where you pick peanuts out of a giant vat and spit the shells on the floor. I'm still trying to figure that out--where exactly do peanuts fit in with burgers and fries? The last thing I'd like to address (and this goes for all of the trendy chains) is the employees' trained behavior. These people were friendly, patient, and helpful (I even witnessed one poor cashier try to help a 187-year old man when he asked, "Now what's a 'burger'?". However, I just can't get over that ludicrous show they put on to make it look like some sort of kitschy, impatient worker-flipping burgers as fast as they can because they're so busy-cooks repeating orders when they hear them from the cashier-type of restaurant. I'm over that. Just because the cashier shouts out my order in some sort of warbled, shorthand restaurant talk and the cooks repeat it doesn't make my food taste any better and it doesn't make it come out any faster. This whole trend of trying to be cutesy in front of the customer is really disgusting. This stands true for those singing nerds at Coldstone and the sandwich-makers at Potbelly that like to strike up conversations. But somehow, the rest of the population of NWI DOES think that these cutesy little idioms must make the food taste better because they really pack in this place. A quick wrap-up: food is average; price is too costly; restaurant is kinda dirty; employees are annoying; customers are hillbillies.

    So....Five Guys.... I'm going to be honest; before my vegetarian days, I loved me a *good* hamburger. In-N-Out? Hell yes! Schoops? Don't mind if I do. Now, five meat free years later, I still end up in a burger joint every now and again due to some rather carnivorous friends and family. Even now, I am not bothered by a dinner companion scarfing down a burger or whatnot--it's not my bag, but I am not one to be preachy. So this isn't one of those "vegetarians condemning all things meaty" reviews. What this is, however, is a "holy-shit-this place-is way-over-hyped" review. Why? Well, because it simply is. My daughter (a very hamburger receptive omnivore) and I ended up at Five Guys one night when a meeting ran late and I just *knew* that the cupboards were Old Mother Hubbard bare. We arrived around 6:30(ish) and the place was *packed*. Sardine packed. WalMart-on-black-Friday packed. You get the idea. My first instinct was to bail, but my eagle-eyed daughter had already spotted the complimentary peanuts. I was stuck. We were in for the long haul. Seeing as there was zero chance of scoring a table we opted to get our meal to go. My daughter ordered a cheeseburger with onion and ketchup (catsup?) only and I immediately zeroed in on the veggie sandwich. Notice I did not say veggie burger--Five Guys makes a veggie sammie which is basically the burger fixings (tomato, lettuce, onion, etc, etc) on a bun. Seemed odd to me, but I always seem to get a grilled cheese at a burger joint so I was taking a chance. Go me. The burger was definitely well-done. Not "bravo" well-done, but cooked-through-and-then-some well-done. Yes, I know Five Guys is known for their well-done burgers, but something tells me this was not the pantheon of burger cookery. The veggie sammie was...messy. Hugely messy. And wet...which is odd seeing as I didn't order any sauce or the like on top. It was just...wet. The bread mushy and sopping and pink from what I can only guess (hope) to be the juice from the tomatoes. Just not appetizing. My daughter only managed a few bites before she gave up and started in on her fries (fairly decent) and I went off the vain hopes of finding something to eat within my barren kitchen. Maybe we introduced ourselves to Five Guys on an off night. Maybe we just aren't the Five Guys type. But given the options in the area, I can't say I'm willing to overlook the hype and plunk down my hard-earned dollars for another go.
