A bit on the pricier side but this place is easily the top dog for best burger joint in imperial beach. Service is always very quick and the store is kept immaculate. The cheeseburger always leaves me coming back for more! They truly have perfected it! [this review was written in connection with a Toast promotion] read more

Five guys is known for that extra scoop of fries they toss in the bag, well whoever was working today 9/13/26 couldn't even fill the actual fry bag let alone add that extra scoop. Nearly $10 for like 20 individual fries ‍ read more

Five Guys - This is supposed to be a Regular Fries - Burgers Near Me - Imperial Beach, California

Plenty of peanuts available. The place was neat and clean. Was met with a warm and enthusiastic welcome. I ordered the patty melt with grilled onions, made it a combo. The sandwich was pretty good. Meat was tasty bread and onions cooked as ordered. Fries were very good. Perfect. read more

Just like any other five guys, its okay no reason for the hype. The bad is if you like to eat outside of this establishment on their tables and chairs then you may want to consider not to. The area smells like urine. Better to eat inside read more

Even thought I showed up right before they close they were very accommodating and gracious. They thought they would take longer because of the bacon and even gave me a 10% off card for waiting. Staff is super friendly, it's very clean, and the food is amazing as always. Definitely making it a regular in my rotation. read more

Made an order online for 2 cheese burgers and a regular Cajun fries. Arrived after the time the email said it was going to be ready and still had to wait but other than that the food was good and staff was nice. read more

Thai burger place is for the masses. The bacon cheeseburger was decent and so was everything else. What surprised me was the $25.74 sticker price on the meal (burger, S/fries and L/drink) In N Out all day before I ever get five guys again!!!! There's a Wagyu burger place down the street where you can get a gourmet style burger for the same price! Wow OOC read more

$$$$$$$$ for basic fast food . Go get sushi instead or a steak gd . They give extra fries just make you feel like you got something for the price bro g charged read more

If I could give zero stars I would. My two kids were scheduled for an interview on the same day. They did everything they were supposed to. Dressed professionally, showed up a little early to the location at the date and time specified. They even both had a confirmation email reminding them of their interviews. They walk in, and are immediately turned away only to be told they weren't hiring because they didn't have any hours. Why put these two responsible young college students through that? They didn't even get a courtesy interview, despite the job being listed on their corporate website, and having been scheduled through that site.

Good burger kind of expensive thou .good choice of toppings onions bacon cheese mushrooms tomatoes etc

Five guys should be shut down. Can't follow an online order. Missing all the sauces I asked for, grilled mushroom grease tore apart the already thin slice lettuce in the lettuce wrap. Couldn't even get a full bite and had to use a fork to eat it. Do yourself a favor and just go to In and Out where they'll make the same type of burger like 5 guys except they won't have the grease soaking from the burger and grilled mushrooms, hamburger won't fall apart and it's half the cost of 5 guys. 5 guys gets a negative 5 stars. Shut your business down and get out of IB!! read more

Burgers are always on point....the best fresh fries! A little expensive but Highly recommend read more

Cons: VERY little salt or seasoning. meat was bland Drink machine was out of everything except Diet Coke and seagrams It's costs $24 for burgers fries drink which is absurd Pros: Fries are decent and they pretty much filled the entire bag with them. But it's way too many fries Burger was also sizeable so it's a decently large meal Food came out quick read more

First time eating 5 Guys in like 8 or 9 years.. Went here on a weekday, lunch time, right around 12:30pm. A few other customers, otherwise not busy at all.. we ordered at the counter and the food was ready pretty quick... Right when you walk in, you can help yourself to roasted salted peanuts (in shell).. I like that when ordering, there's plenty of toppings to choose from.. at the time same time, they're all your standard toppings... I ordered a cheeseburger, the patty was a generous size. I was disappointed that the hamburger bun is a simple bun, not toasted, and so the bottom bun of my burger was super soggy. My kids also got an Oreo shake, thick, creamy, yummy! They're also very generous with their French fries.. they came hot, but not necessarily crispy. At the time that we were here, there was a lot of employees working.. I was impressed to notice that during downtime when there were no customers to help, they were all quietly working.. wiping down the counters, restocking, etc. the place was already pretty spotless. I mention this bc it's a real pet peeve of mine when businesses employ staff who mess around and talk loudly as if no one is listening. Their menu is a bit pricy.. definitely not worth it if you are the type that likes plain burgers! I was really disappointed in the soggy bun, I'd expect better quality given the price.. maybe won't be my first pick for burgers, but I'd still go come back to 5 guys every once in a while! read more

The burgers and fries are wonderful. Service at this location in up and down line the tide...good days and bad days. My regular size burger, medium fries and large drink was $16.78! Expensive!!! We did a burger joint get so expensive? Service was good, food was great but the prices are way too high and are out of alignment with the other fast food burger joints... read more

YOU PAY A LOT FOR THOSE PEANUTS.... I have no excuse or anyone else to blame for coming here and spending $16.45 for a cheeseburger small fries and a drink. I knew the deal going in. Great food ... MAN, just mouthwateringly delicious food. I'll be honest, I come here sometimes because I know there will be plenty of empty tables unlike certain other places that provide value. I appreciate diverse business models, what I don't appreciate are pricing structures that are just bat (youknowwhat) crazy. When I brought my family here and we paid $40 for three people (sharing drinks) and had so much food and fries left over we never ended up eating it, that was one thing. To pay what I paid and end up filling up on peanuts afterwards is bloody insane. Now that I've said my peace, I like this place as one to bring your family as it's clean and near the beach, and my family loves the fries especially. There are a lot of wonderful touches but I cannot ignore the fact that it's impossible to eat a full meal here on a lunch budget. It's a burger and fries place, ok?! read more

Five Guys - Filling up on peanuts. - Burgers Near Me - Imperial Beach, California

I've heard amazing things about this place so my bf and I finally checked it out. I heard it was better then in and out. Now I'm not a huge fan of in and out like outta town people are so I wasn't expecting much. Well the burgers were fantastic. Looks just like an in and out when you walk in with the red and white tiles. They serve peanuts which was odd to me but ok since there thing is they use peanut oil. They don't just have burgers they have dogs too!! The burgers you build your own. It is pricey if your just into a plain burger but if you like fancy mushroom and other stuff on your burgers this is the place. You can have one or all the toppings no extra charge. The Cajun fries are delicious and never ending just get the small honesty and one for two people is good!!!! Customer service at this place was hit or miss. Some employees were awesome some hated their lives. But overall positive experience will come again. read more

After church I decided to stop by five guys in Imperial Beach. I'm giving them a three stars, only because when I ordered the bacon cheeseburger the cheese wasn't melted all the way. The veggie sandwich my fiancé got the cheese was melted all the way. I also ordered the regular Cajun fries they were good. The Oreo milkshake pretty good. Overall it was OK for lunch. read more

Girl at the register was really rude I told her I was there to pick up a Mobile order and she very clearly rolled her eyes

I'm going to start off with the food today, really quick to come out and very fresh with lots of flavor and add on toppings. Customer service was also fantastic. The employees were speedy, nice, and efficient. And to top it all of the atmosphere and music was great. Really a home run of a place to bring the family! read more

First time coming here, first they just throw the fries in the bag with the cup upside down. Not to mention they forgot to add condiments on my burger, not worth 45$ for 3 burgers... read more

Five Guys - They just threw my fries in the bag not even in the cup... - Burgers Near Me - Imperial Beach, California

Because I am indulgent and I love burgers. This location is pretty close to me, just have to cross a few freeways to get there but they do burgers and fries so well. How could anyone be waiting on drive thru burgers and fries when they have this gem available to them?! Seriously, my husband and I get the large fries to share and we get bacon cheeseburgers and we have to immediately reach for Tums and lemon ginger tea afterwards but it's soooo worth it! It's probably because we gobble it up so fast! Don't take it to go if you don't have to. The best way to enjoy is to eat it hot and fresh inside the dining area (it can get pretty greasy). read more

Five Guys - Magic in between two eggy buns!! I love it here. - Burgers Near Me - Imperial Beach, California

I ordered the double cheeseburger, the medium fries and a Diet Coke (bottle) What I got was a single burger, cold fries ( I don't blame them for the fries being cold, grub hub delivered) and a regular coke, I only drink diet..... I checked my order online and I ordered correctly, they screwed up... 18.00 and nothing was right. read more

I would not go here during the pandemic. On multiple occasions I have seen employees walking around without masks on. They require the customers wear them and not the employees... If you like being sick, by all means go here. Just make sure you bring limes for your corona. Stay safe and stay away from businesses that don't take the pandemic seriously. #Stopthespread read more

I ordered regular Cajun fries, and even my receipt says so. The guy gave me the right size, but I didn't get Cajun fries. I didn't look until I got home, which was bad in my part, but I don't understand how it's hard to mess that up when they aren't even busy. Nor did they even fill the cup the whole way. I doubt I'll be coming back to this location. read more

Five Guys - Burgers Near Me - Imperial Beach, California

For well over a year now I've been eating at least once a week from this restaurant. I'm on a low carb diet and cook for my family so when I need a break being able to get a hot, fresh, no b.s. meal made by someone else is important to me. I almost always order from the app. Every time I've walked in I've been greeted with a smile. The store is perfectly clean, orderly and efficient. The food? Perfect every time. From taste to texture to heat or layering. It never dawned on me to write a review. However, yesterday I changed my order. I got a bun, fries and a drink (I was on my last cheat day for a while). While I was on my way to pick up my lunch the phone rang. The folks at my Five Guys were checking on me to make sure that I hadn't made a mistake on my order. They knew me and my order. They cared enough to call. Wow... Forget what anyone else here says. This restaurant, this location specifically, knows what they are doing from top to bottom. Bravo. Keep it up you guys! For the haters complaining about price, there's a chain across the street well known for their cheap low quality burgers and numerous health code violations. Enjoy. I'm sticking with Five Guys. read more

ordered online for a pick up at 2:08pm and waited for maybe 25mins for fries while my burgers sat there on the shelf... how long were they sitting there for them to be like warm out of foil... and all the shift leader girl had to say was "sorry we know you've been waiting, would you like another milkshake?" No, thank you. I don't want more food, I want my food fresh and on time for a PICK UP. Sitting in my car and it's now 3:00pm as a reference as to how long this took for me to get half fresh food. The one guy working the fry station was hard working though. star for him. He was great. read more

My first time coming to this place. I ordered a little bacon cheeseburger with grilled onions and mushrooms with a side of fries. I was kinda excepting a dry burger with a stale bun lol. I heard a few bad reviews about this place. So I've been hesitant to stop by. Since they opened for business not to long ago. So my review for the customer service 5/5, bacon cheeseburger 5/5 the burger was moist well seasoned and the bun was fresh, the condiments grilled onions and grilled mushrooms 2/5, and the fries 1/5 slightly burnt, soggy and a thumbs down for me. The place is pricey but the burger is good and I won't mind eating it again. Other than that my experience was good to day. Thanks and take care! read more

my son love 5 guys. this location is very convenient to pick up food right after i pick up my kids from school. the staff is always very kind when my 14 year old does his own ordering! i also like their outdoor patio area with the view of march and ash. very entertaining to watch people coming and going out of that place. read more

First time in here, its not busy. Woman comes in with her dog that is clearly not a service dog and is allowed to let the animal run freely in the restaurant. Additionally, I am overhearing a very loud conversation between the employees and this woman about how they are upset that people do not tip them and how they believe they should be tipped for their burger flipping efforts. Keep in mind this place charges nearly ten dollars for a regular burger. Unprofessional, rude. Won't be back. read more

Paid for an extra burger patty. Got home to discover the upgrade wasn't there an all the food was soggy. Overpriced, low quality, poor quality control. Requested a call back from the company and got a very awkward voicemail attempt from the manager. This store could use training from top to bottom. read more

Did want to have to give a bad review but this is now the third time the order was wrong. This last time, they forgot all the ads-ons for the burger and it was obvious the patties had been sitting around since they were cold and not fresh. Burnt around the edges and tiny. I used to love the burgers but the staff has gotten lazy. We ordered at 830pm and picked up at 845pm. We got home to realize the order was wrong and called. The manager said to come back another time because they were now closed (905pm by this time). We had to go get other food. What a waste of money and shit service. Not eating here anymore. read more

Bad experience all the way around, burger was fatty & greasy, clod fries, and never got the drink. Over charged then refunded. Told when I called I had to drive back to get another refund. Not worth the gas & time! 6 people working and none of them able to work together to expedite orders. Too bad so sad. :/ read more

Placed my order in DoorDash, the order came wrong! Mind you I paid $28 for ONE meal with a shake. I called just NOW and the manager said to me that next time I come in they will compensate me with a meal for the error. I told her I'm not sure when I will eat there next, so I asked how would she remember my order?. She said they keep track of these things and asked me for my information. Here I am about a month later wanting to order dinner for my family so I called to inquire about the "meal credit" for the past error. She said " I am the manager and cannot honor that unless you have your receipt. Luckily I have record on the DoorDash app but she was rude and made me feel as if I'm lying or wanting a favor! I also spoke to a guy who's name is "Eddie" that in the beginning of my conversation refused to give me his name. I only asked for reference since I had intentions of coming in now to buy dinner for my family. After this and how they made me feel, I will NEVER EVER come to this location nor I want a credit! VERY BAD SERVICE! I was about to spend almost $100 for my family dinner! I hope this review reaches to corporate offices and train staff better! read more

When I came to this location, I was greeted by JOSHUA. He was so upbeat and friendly. He was great. I wish everyone would be like JOSHUA when it came to customer Service. He is a Asset to this company. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in his work. Thanks JOSHUA! read more

Have to say the burgers were amazing my salted caramel shake was delicious, and creamy everything was on point. Untill i asked for ranch and they didnt have any. Big no no for me ranch is needed to dip my french fries. What fast food place doesnt have ranch??? So if you dont use ranch i would recommend this place to you. read more

This is one of my favorite burger places. Sometimes order and service was great. However, this location hasn't been consistent for me. The last time my beef patty was over done and broken apart and also missing sauce I've requested. No attention to detail of the order requested. It is a hit or miss. Just check your order and burger before leaving. Also when waiting for your order you have to bark at them and ask them for your order for some of the employees. Because one time I was totally ignored waiting for my order just sitting there. read more
