    Looks like 5 Guys will be opening another location at Westheimer & Gessner in the Woodlake shopping center (within walking distance of my apartment, yay drunk food). I can't wait to see what else opens near the new Randalls.

    I think the 5 guys near me delivers, but I only live 2 blocks away so it does no good for me

    I can't speak in this topic, I've never eaten at 5 guys or In & OUt. There's only about 3 locations in Atlanta for 5 guys, while in In & Out is in the west.

    I prefer Mighty Fine to both 5 guys and PTerry's.

    Both PTerry's and 5 guys burn their burgers, at least Mighty Fine will do a Medium, and that tastes SOOO much better, IMO.

    When I had it their burger was like a better version of a Wendy's burger...not bad but I haven't been back since. Their fries were good though.

    holy crap what is that abortion? it's not that it looks unhealthy it looks like someone just smothered a burger with as much cheese as possible so people would think it's good.

    Were you most disappointed in the burger or the fries (if you had them)? Everybody was gaga about the fries, but that's what really disappointed me. When I tried it, the burger was alright, but nothing to rave about.

    Looks like a giant frog cloaca on roadkill... possibly nasty delicious, though.

    (that's right... I used the word "cloaca" on you... been waiting to use that damn word again since high school biology.)

    Five Guys is ridiculous-

    2 Burgers, 2 Fries, and 2 Drinks for $20.

    However, at least you can get your burger built anyway you would like....unless you want Avocado!
