    meet me in the streets with that noise.

    Beck's fries are weak, and they are expensive, but I fist fight my Grandma over their jalapeno burger.

    The only place to spend $10 bucks on a burger, frys, and drinks. Butter buns with flavorful meat top with grill onion, mild tabasco sauce, and letttuce. That's my kind of burger. :grin:

    I still think people rate Five Guys on the quality of their fries and not their burgers.

    Fries are great. Burgers are meh.

    If you don't like In-N-Out, then its likely because you don't know how to order your burger.

    You can't beat an In-N-Out burger. Where else in this day and age can you get such a great tasting burger at that price? I mean McD's, Jack, and Carl's charge you like $3+ for a burger. :mad:

    I don't think so.
    But it's not my favorite burger or anything.
    Jack in the Box has the worst ff burgers/food in general, in my opinion. I mean, it's cool they are open 24 hours, well the one I used to live close to.
    And that they serve breakfast all day, but their food just tastes bad.

    I tried Five Guys for the first time a few weeks ago and was disappointed. The burger was dry and rubbery and the fries were soggy. The toasty bread was the best part of the meal and nobody goes to a burger joint for the bread.

    Yea the fries aren't great and the prices are high, but get the Bill's Burger or TKO burger or even bacon cheeseburger and there is no way you can say its overrated.

    Bill's burger is the best burger I've ever had

    I think Five Guys is at least as good as In-N-Out. Since In-N-Out is way more hyped, then obviously I don't agree that Five Guys is the most overrated burger joint.

    Smash Burger literally smashes Mighty Fine Burger, I personally thing Mighty Fine Burger's fries suck. I've only been to the Mighty Fine in South Austin though..

    In-N-Out has by far the best fries, and by far the most consistently excellent burgers, but you gotta get Mustard over Thousand imo...

    When I first heard of Five Guys I looked at pics online and saw some damn good looking burgers. When they opened up here in Houston I noticed the burgers didn't look anything like the ones people were showing off in other parts of the country. It's almost like the owner of the stores here is skimping.

    F all your noises.


    In-N-Out FOREVER.


    Five Guys is ok though. Beck's Prime is good too.
