Bacon Cheese Burger
Kevin D.

Great Fries! I recently visited Five Guys-Downtown Bethesda. Ordered a hot dog & fries. All beef hot dog split & grilled served on a tender bun. Fries tender, slightly crispy. Great potato flavor. Prompt courteous customer service. Glad to see staff cleaning the tables & counter between Customers use. See Photos!

Late lunch/Early dinner at Five Guys on Bethesda Row. I had the Bacon Cheeseburger. The rest of my crew ordered the Kid's Cheeseburger. Excellent service and good food!

Greasy fry bag.  :(

I was short on time and allowed myself to go here rather than to by usual 5guys to come here. The person who took my order was basic, then hung up before I could say goodbye. The purple haired person was there in body but that's it. They all seemed tired at 9 pm. You can be tired but fake it a little for the customer maybe. There is a fruit fly problem here with many of these bugs swarming around the ketchup dispenser. Not sure why I thought they would be gone by now. Just nasty and unappetizing. Fix this problem! Also please drain the fries before putting them in the bag. Fries were so greasy they made my stomach hurt. Next time I will detour out of my way to the 5Guys near Home Depot (across from Montgomery Mall). My home 5Guys.

Yay! Five guys and all kinds a milk shakes. Staff is friendly, food is fresh made, great milkshake flavor selection, clean except for all the peanuts everywhere...but you get free peanuts while you wait so that's a bonus! Winning. Parking stinks though, there's paid parking nearby but if you just want to run in & go it's annoying.

My husband loves fries and when we came here we got the mother load of fries. We ordered just one order of medium size fries because we just finished dinner but my husband wanted to snack on fries. Let me tell you a medium size is more like an extra large size. We didn't just get a medium size container of fries but we also got half a paper bags worth of fries as well. Inside the bag was the medium container and a mound of fries on top. You definitely get more than what you pay for and the they taste good! There are also peanuts to snack on while you wait for your order.

Based on good reviews we end up in five guys. NEVER AGAIN! What a horrible experience! Bland, dry double layer meet, with bunch of tasteless toppings you can choose from the menu. Talking about toppings: they do no good to the obnoxiously bland Burger. No flavor, just smell of meat on a soggy bun which was not even toasted. Don't get me started with Fresh cut potatoes: oily and crumbling! Wait a minute someone said crunchy and healthy potatoes....huh...I would say, be ready to get disappointed! Gosh, this is my first and last time in five guys! People giving 1 and more stars to this restaurant might never tasted good juicy burger with flavor on a well baked bun! Meanwhile, you frowning East Coasters, if you really want to try fresh cut fries, do your self a favor, try it in any backwood of your choice in California. Ready for the photo? Seriously? Aluminum foil?

A chain is a chain is a chain, for the most part. Granted, I feel a bit different about Five Guys because they started in the DC area and they have yet to reach the gargantuan size of McDonald's or any other such burger chain. And if they do, I pray that their quality doesn't degrade. If you've been to one Five Guys, you've probably been to them all (unless the one you went to was particularly awful). At long last, Bethesdans who rarely venture into the scary world of DC or Virginia can see what they've been missing out on. This location is conveniently placed on Bethesda Avenue amidst a myriad of different restaurants and more upscale stores. Considering the other options in the immediate area, this is a great option for cheap, greasy food. If you don't know, Five Guys prides itself on simple tasty burgers. Thin-style patties, two to a bun, coming only with cheese. They offer a good amount of various toppings, all for free. Onions, pickles, ketchup and mustard, A-1 sauce... it's all good. The fries are also delicious, really truly great stuff. Be warned that even the small size has enough spuds to feed two people. But if you're incredibly hungry, a burger and some fries will fill you up nice. Just be warned: it took me a few minutes to get a burger when the place didn't have a line. It can take a lot longer during peak business hours. Oh, and you might leave smelling like a diner.

multiple problems and inconvenience with the simple order at one of the Five Guys locations. Online ordering for some reason is not available at that time . called in an order . first call was disconnected . second call a young lady put me on hold , and then took my order said it was already in 7 minutes . I arrived 10 minutes later to find the pleasure of reordering as my order was never placed . I waited an additional 7 to 10 minutes in the store to receive my order . where is 9 red shirt employees at this location at that time , and I was the only customer . 9 to 1 employee to customer ratio for substandard service! there was no greeting . there was no order to be picked up . I finally took my order home and to my surprise found my burger , of which Five Guys has thin patties , to be undercooked with raw meat in its Center ( see picture) . by far the worst service I have ever had at one of their locations .

Three gulps and I'm full.

I ordered the Fonz Italian Sausage layered with pastrami (seemed like lunch meat) and melted cheese on top. I think it was provolone. Served on a toasted bun. Filling and satisfying, good flavor. The hot fries was a regular order of fries served with an imbalanced sprinkle sort of dumped on the top layer of fries and not distributed all the way through, which had an extra cost of $2 for the sprinkle of spices, which was an annoying difference in price in my opinion. Solid options for beer and a few ciders. Full bar as well. TVs on the walls only showing sports. You get a table number, order at the counter, pay, and they bring it out to the table number. Casual spot. My immediate thoughts...this place is overpriced. My sausage dog, fries and cider came to $26, plus tax, so about $31 bucks. I repeat, $31 bucks. I honestly felt as though the place was price gauaging. A few other people at my table mentioned the prices and thought they were overpriced. Not much service received, just them bringing the order out. Food was yummy, but I'm not convinced about the value. I have had sausage dogs, hot dogs, fries and beer around the world and I feel this place was overpriced. I like the atmosphere because its a perfect place for casual dining and decent for groups.

We started with the Shrimp & Mango Ceviche, which was incredibly refreshing. The combination of avocado, mango pico, jalapeño, radish, cilantro, and fresh lime juice created the perfect balance of sweet, citrusy, and just the right amount of heat. The Elote was another standout. The grilled corn topped with their signature sauce, cotija cheese, and guajillo powder was creamy, savory, and packed with flavor. It's a must-order. For tacos, I tried the Ancho Shrimp Taco, which was topped with chile-lime sauce, red cabbage, and pico de gallo. It was flavorful, well-balanced, and one of my favorites from the meal. I also had the Carne Asada Street Tacos with pico de gallo added, and they were simple, fresh, and delicious. Another favorite was the Blackened Salmon Taco. The blackened salmon paired perfectly with the jalapeño sauce, red cabbage, charred corn, and cilantro, making every bite full of flavor. I also ordered the Chicken Rice Bowl, which came with pico de gallo, charred corn, crema, and guajillo sauce. It was filling, well-seasoned, and a great option if you're looking for something other than tacos. To top it all off, I tried one of their margaritas. They offer them frozen or on the rocks, and I highly recommend the frozen version--it was refreshing and the perfect pairing with the meal. The service was friendly, the food came out quickly, and everything exceeded my expectations. With multiple locations throughout the DMV, Fish Taco is an easy recommendation for anyone looking for fresh tacos, great margaritas, and a casual spot that's consistently worth visiting.

You order at the entrance and pay and sit down and they bring the food out to you. There's a good amount of selection of tacos and burritos and bowls. I like that it wasn't too salty like most foods out can be... and that you could add the salsa but at the same time, I did wish it was a little bit more flavorful. However, I liked the portions. I liked the fast service and the ambience was nice enough casual, but not too casual. It was a great spot to go right before the movies. Street/county garage parking.

I've been coming here for years, and it's always a dependable, tasty stop when the hunger pangs strike. My go-to is The Wreck -- loaded up and, of course, with extra hot peppers. It's not just a sandwich; it's a life experience. Every bite feels like it's giving my taste buds a standing ovation... and my sinuses a pep talk. I also love their chili -- hearty, comforting, and exactly what you want on a chilly day (pun absolutely intended). One of my favorite things is the mix-and-match approach here. Half a sandwich, half a salad, whatever combination makes your stomach sing -- they make it happen. I'm partial to a sandwich-and-soup or sandwich-and-chili combo, but honestly, they could hand me a sandwich and a pickle and I'd still be grinning. The Pick-Your-Pair deal is my secret weapon for avoiding food FOMO. I get a little bit of everything without having to choose -- because why should lunch be a time for difficult decisions? I will say, I do miss the days when the rewards program felt, well, more rewarding. You know, something that made loyal customers feel like VIPs instead of "Very Intermittently Pleased." But that's a small gripe compared to all the deliciousness they serve up. A few Potbelly-themed jokes for flavor: Why did The Wreck go to therapy? It had too many layers of emotion. What's Potbelly's favorite band? Bread Zeppelin. My doctor told me to eat more greens... so now I get extra lettuce on my Wreck. Problem solved. Whether I'm craving a sandwich that could make a grown man weep, a bowl of chili that hugs your soul, or a meal combo that lets me have my lunch and eat it too -- this place delivers every time. Highly recommend!

The small amount of lobster we received was rubbery and had absolutely no flavor. The bread also did not seem fresh. Please note: please improve the amount of lobster; please improve the cooking on the lobster and figure out your bread situation. The service was excellent and obviously trained very well in dealing with customers. I wish I could have provided this feedback more readily. Because we had ordered the food to go and were already seated in the park, there was no practical way to return and ask for the problem to be corrected. I love, love lobster rolls, so I was especially looking forward to this meal. For the price and the restaurant's reputation, I expected a generous portion of tender, fresh, flavorful lobster served on fresh bread. The lobster portion, freshness, and flavor all need to be seriously amped up. Frankly, for approximately the same price, I would much rather go to The Palm in Washington, D.C., where the quality, preparation, and overall dining experience are on an entirely different level. I hope Luke's takes this feedback seriously. Disappointed is an understatement, and based on this experience, I would not return.
