Can you believe it, this is the first time I tried a Five Guys. I enjoy an unpretentious burger joint. It's supposed to invoke that retro diner vibe with 70s and 80s songs playing in the background. We got our orders in less than five minutes. We expected only a pittance of fries contained in a little cup, but it turned out that the bag was filled with fries. Speaking of large servings, the junior cheeseburger I got was pretty sizeable, and I can only imagine how big the larger options are. It's just a good place to fill you up if you can't think of anything else to eat. read more

Five guys is always awesome . the burgers and hotdogs are tremendous. Do not forget about the cajun fries. remember leave no fries alone. the location seems to be small but they move customers in and out fairly quickly . read more

Paper straws are horrid. Can barely suck down a milkshake. Strawberry by the way was good. Burger and fries experience just as good as any location in the states. Side note: Poutine is on the menu, poutine belongs in Canada but not five guys imo. read more

I've been successfully lured to this Five Guys many a time--driving along Bay and looking at their bright signage down Elm Street, it has a tempting light-at-the-end-of-the-tunnel look. This location is excellent, and the only reason my rating isn't 5-stars is because it's a little grungy due to being so close to the intense activity of Yonge-Dundas. The food is as good, if not better, than most Five Guy's, the service is considerate and fast. The staff are really nice and even stayed open a couple minutes after closing time when they saw me rush over once. The pickup service that they use is Ritual by the way. It's pretty fast for me to do a quick grab-and-go during the pandemic, and they're open pretty late. Their pandemic hygiene seems really good. They always wear masks correctly and many of them wear gloves. read more

Five Guys - a man walking down the street in front of a five guys restaurant - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Location: Britannia / Mavis 1. Food is very good, always good. 2. Service - not happy about in this location, they have a huge issue with using the cash and not using new gloves. Every time I go in there I have to watch them and remind them to remove the glove they just used on cash, wash your hands and put on new gloves before touching food. 3. Ambiance - clean. read more

Five Guys is right by Eaton Centre and Ryerson, it's pretty happening here on a Friday night. The burgers are average. So are the toppings. However, their Cajun fries are pretty amazing. It has a great twist to it, they're arguably the best fries I've had. Only problem is that everything is a bit pricey for fast food. It's filling food, but greasy-filling. I find it odd that this is the only fast food restaurant (that I can recall) that doesn't offer combo meals. Maybe that's why everything is pricier because it's individually priced? If it's any consolation, there's free peanuts in the middle of the restaurant. read more

Five Guys - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This was a quick dinner option after watching a movie nearby. I wanted something filling as had an appetite. Ordering was quick as few options for burgers (one can go crazy with the condiments I suppose) I also added small fries as they came recommended. The kitchen is open and they grill/fry to order. Now full disclaimer I am not a big fan of burgers but can tell if I have a decent one. The wait was ok and grabbing a spot wasn't hard as well. The seating is greasy as expected. First of the burger is decent sized. The taste was ok. Not quite gourmet nor is it the fast food variety. I think of in and out burgers as benchmark for this level and sadly this isn't up to par. 2 stars for the burger as way to greasy for my taste. Fries fared better as nice and warm. Half star added for those. 2.5 stars all said and done. read more

I went back to Toronto for another trip and found a five guys near where i was staying. I loved five guys when i lived in Vancouver and wanted to see if the chain was still as good as i remembered it to be. the answer was yes. i got two double cheeseburgers with tomatoes mushrooms pickles and mayo. it was fabulous lots of cheese and the burger was so juicy. One thing about five guys their hot dogs are totally underrated. I got the cheese dog with ketchup mustard and relish. it was a great meat cheese condiment ratio. Also got cajun fries with malt vinegar. the knock on five guys is that its not the cleanest place so i took it for take out. but it looked clean wen i was inside. Service was faster than the Vancouver locations. If i make it back to Toronto tis summer, i'll definite stop by again read more

I'll never understand why Five Guys gets all the hate that it does. At the end of the day, you're paying for a burger that's super delicious, juicy, and is often times way better than the non-chain burger joints. Is it the best you can get in Toronto? Of course not, but it's excellent in it's own right. The griddled, flat top crust tastes amazing, and you get that beefy flavour bomb when you bite into it, mixed in with good bacon and cheese (if that's your thing). And, of course, the fries are awesome too. There's not much to say. It's a place that makes a mean burger and fries, and rivals Burger's Priest and Holy Chuck for best chain griddled burger. read more

I love Five Guys for the fact that there aren't many kids or adults with annoying food requirements. I am grateful for such segregation; especially, the annoying kids part, and the helicopter parents (or are these "snowplough parents?") To boot, their burgers are fantastic, baring other competitors I favour. read more

Five Guys - Don't come if you have peanut allergies. - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

If you value your health and how people handle your food, do not risk it and avoid this brand. I don't know how these guys survive health inspections. The location is filthy and their employees and managers don't care and will ignore you when you provide feedback. I used to be a big fan of this brand but seeing the disregard the managers have towards food handling and hygiene made me lose faith in anything related to them. I gave a few chances to rectify over two visits and the manager even laughed when I asked him to please replace his plastic gloves prior to handling my food ... he had just spent a few minutes at the cash register handling the screen and receiving payment ... if this isn't a food service violation then I don't know what is. When I insisted about hygiene, he says he's too busy with orders to bother listening to me and that he needs to work.... Busy contaminating every customer that comes in that's for sure! read more

I pass by this place on a fairly regular basis but never dropped in until now. The place was fairly busy when we got there but the line moved fairly quickly. The menu also offered hot dogs and sandwiches but I was here to try the burger. There were 4 burgers to choose from as well as a little version of each. The difference between the regular and little version is that the little comes with one patty while the regular has two. You also get to choose the toppings and sauce for your burger from a fairly decent list of items. I ended up having the bacon cheeseburger and I must say it was pretty good. The patty was juicy and when combined with the toppings and melted cheese looked so unhealthy but was so good although I wished they had put more sauce. I'd recommend dropping by and grabbing a bite although I did find it a tad pricey for what you get. Also don't forget to grab some peanuts to snack on. read more

Five Guys - Bacon cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Conveniently next to the mall and school, this place makes a lot of business. I've been here twice and I like the amount of toppings they offer. The burgers take awhile to make as the parties are grilled to order so they come out hot and juicy. Their fries are unique since they use peanut oil and the also give free peanuts, which is what they are known for! read more

Five Guys - Hamburger - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

There seems to be a lot of debate whether 5 Guys is worth the money. Let me add my two cents. I like the burger but do I think it's worth the extra money that you pay over a regular Fast food joint ..... Hmm.... It's a hard call, especially with the proliferation of gourmet burgers and even high class burgers as well. I like 5 Guys but it is not on the scale of Burger Priest or Harbours Room (obviously) Pluses: Burgers are cooked to order No proliferation of weird toppings Free peanuts Not so goods: The high price I personally find the fries kinda bland No free style machine read more

Here's a non-burger review / DIY recipe= Unintentionally made a "Reese Cups" taste milkshake by requesting Peanut Butter AND Malt, tasted really good - best of all, it lacks the concrete consistency of more industrial milkshakes from McDonald's (so your mouth doesn't end up getting cramps from trying to draw up liquid) read more

Five Guys - Reese's Milkshake = Peanut Butter milkshake, then ask them to add malt to it. Tastes sublime. - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Minimum wage is $15 and they still can't do their job properly. It takes five guys to make an overpriced burger and it still isn't what the customer ordered. TWICE they've managed to make a bacon burger minus the bacon. Terrible service, terrible workers. read more

Super juicy, fatty, tasty af burgers near the Eaton centre in Toronto. We got a cheeseburger (2 patties) for almost 10 bucks (lone, no fries) so it is pretty pricy but you can taste the quality of the food. You can get free peanuts on the left far side of the restaurant! read more

Five Guys - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Two words: Cajun Fries. You definitely cannot go wrong with the Cajun Fries here. They also overload the fries in the bag which is the Five Guys way. However, the Cajun Fries do outshine the burgers. I usually get the cheeseburger which has double patty. There is nothing too special about the burger. Just an average burger from a fast food burger place. At least they make it fresh after you order and you have the usual condiments like ketchup, mayo, lettuce, tomato, etc. There is nothing special about the decor and interior. Just the Five Guys decor. At least the employees keep it clean when I observed them wiping down tables when I was there. If you are looking for a quick bite, this is the place to go and get the CAJUN FRIES! read more

Five Guys - Trademark: fries overload. Cajun fries. - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Five Guys Burgers... It's alright. The food tastes good, and they pour the fries right into the paper bag your burger comes in. I guess this is supposed to be "awesome" but when you get right down to it, it's rather obnoxious. There are many things I like more that ripping open my greasy paper bag in a specific way, so as the fries don't spill everywhere. For example, I like being able to take a container of fries out of my bag, and then take the burger out, and proceed to eat in an orderly fashion. End of the day, the basic Five Guys burger tastes just like a Whopper. That's it. That's all it is. Except rather than being 2 dollars on Wednesday, it costs a fortune. read more

These burgers were really tasty, not from frozen patties, fresh toppings, fresh bun, fresh cut fries. I won't whine about the stupid detail another reviewer was whining about where they put an extra scoop of fries in your bag, I thought it was generous and fun, I mean what's the big deal? Take your burger and cup of fries out of the bag, eat some fries from the cup, and tilt the bag and pour the rest into the cup.. or don't eat the bag fries... what is this "special way so they don't spill out" are you whining about Mike b?? how complex can that be? how is that obnoxious? I think what's obnoxious is the fact you complained about such a pointless detail. I had the bacon cheese burger and I really loved it. This is a 50's style burger joint with fresh food, their burgers are nothing like a whopper, as this is fresh unfrozen patty and a whopper is a factory processed burger with fillers, preservatives and is frozen, and has likely been for months before they make it for you. If you are expecting some snooty high end "gourmet burger" experience then don't go, if you want a fresh tasty burger, then this is a good place for one. I mean they make burgers and fries and hot dogs, what are you expecting the place to be? I think some people tend to expect too much from these places. Oh and a word of advice, if you want to keep your fries crispy when taking out, take the napkins out of the bag and don't close it, keep it open, if you don;t, the fries will be soggy by the time you take them out of the bag. I think the guy complaining about soggy fries below is not eating in the shop, he's doing take out and likely steaming his fries by closing the bag. I'll definitely go back. read more

I don't get the hype. It's an alright burger, but I don't find anything incredibly special about it that warrants the price. 8 bucks for a cheeseburger and nothing else? Fresh ingredients, and handcrafted patties are a nice change from your standard fast food. I swear I'm not an old lady, but the music is just so loud in there. You'd think you're in a night club. read more

There's been a lot of hype surround Five Guys new location at Yonge & Dundas. I had never tried it before, and I work around the corner so I decided to check out what all the fuss was about. I got there 15 minutes after they opened on a Wednesday, and there was already a lineup! First thing I noticed though, was that it smelled like a meat packing plant in there. Seriously ew. As I waited in line, I almost had to walk out because of the smell. My co-worker however was even more eager to try it, so we stayed and waited to place our order. Line moved relatively quickly, and I ordered a cheeseburger (the double stack one), and Regular Fries. They have a bunch of toppings to choose from. Grilled onions and mushrooms are a nice touch, but not much different than South Street Burger Co. Order came to $12.86. Once the food was ready they handed me my paper bag and off I went to work. 3 minutes later, the bag was SOAKED in grease. Upon opening the bag I discovered an abundance of fries in there! TONS! Again, I ordered the smallest option (regular), and it's easily enough for 2-3 people. The burger itself was pretty good. Five Guys pride themselves on being free of preservatives and you can tell by the taste of the burgers (might explain the smell of raw beef in there). Although good, it didn't knock my socks off. The fries were also okay. Nothing special. I'm giving this place 3 stars. I suppose it's tough to make yourself stand out in an over-saturated "burger joint' market. They certainly try here, and do well south of the border, but for a couple bucks more, I'd rather sink my teeth into a burger at "Hrvati" ANY day. They put their own individual spin on a traditional hamburger, and pull it off in spades! read more

Five Guys - 15 minutes after opening! Already a lineup! - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Standard typical Five Guys. The service is quick and the food is always tasty. The reason for three stars...it is a fast food restaurant. Which means there is going to be tables that you need to clean up (wipe off) yourself, etc. especially after a rush. If you are looking for a quick, tasty burger that will not break the bank then this is the spot. Oh and I HIGHLY recommend their shakes. Trust me on this one! read more

Located on the bustling Yonge Street area, this burger joint is not hard to spot. My first impression of the place was that it was kind of boring in terms of décor. The restaurant's interior isn't all that unique although their signature red and white checkered patterned walls did add a little bit of character to the place. The layout is organized and there is also plenty of seating available to accommodate parties of all sizes. The atmosphere is very casual and it's a good place to hang out with your friends or family. The service was not impeccable and very much comparable to your typical fast food joint: place your order here and pick up your order there, sometimes you get a smile and sometimes you don't. They were friendly enough but really nothing to rave about. What I ordered: little cheese burger & fries There isn't anything little about these burgers. In fact, they seem average sized for me. The patties aren't grandiose in size and would fall within the standard burger patty sizes served in restaurants across Toronto. Taste wise, they are mediocre. I didn't find anything too impressive about them and it certainly was not something that should be worth a couple of bucks more than any other burger I've had in my life. The best part of the meal was the french fries. Crispy and fresh, these guys know how to do their fries. The portion of the fries was huge and overflowing with greasy, calorie infused goodness. Warning to those that have any food allergies: they cook the fries in peanut oil. Overall, I found the place to be a little pricey, especially since you can get the same thing for a cheaper price at another fast food burger joint downtown. I don't really think you are getting your moneys worth in terms of value and quality of the product. I am also disappointed that they do not serve important fast food staples such as onion rings but I guess they are trying to stick to basics at this restaurant. read more

Five Guys - Their fries are crispy and fresh, served in a cup that is OVERFLOWING with deep fried goodness. - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

To be fair, my review is based on a take out order, which would explain the soggy buns because they looked perfect as I watched them make my burger. I came here during my lunch break as I needed something quick and The staff here work efficiently to make sure everyone gets their burger fast! I probably only waited five minutes before mine was ready. That said, Five Guys isn't what you would expect at gourmet burger joints like Burger Priest or P&L so the toppings are quite basic. So, if you're one who enjoys classic burgers, this may be the place for you. By the time I got back to my office and unwrapped my burger from the ton foil, the buns were soggy already, but the ingredients tasted very fresh! It all ends up the same in my stomach anyway.. I'll be back next time to dine in! read more

Ordered through Skip The Dishes for pick up. Prices are already pretty expensive for the Hamburger, and the price on Skip The Dishes is $1.60 more than ordering at the restaurant. I know STD takes a big cut, but I know some restaurants don't charge more. The burger itself was decent. Don't think I'll be coming back. The burgers aren't that special here. And I'll stick with ordering with Ritual next time (prices are the same as restaurant). read more

BOTTOM LINE: Once you've gone double-pattied, it's hard to go back. Five Guys finally made its way up here, and I gotta say, it's one solid burger! Their "regular" burger comes double-pattied, so order the "little" burger if you only want to clog your arteries halfway! You can add bacon, cheese or both, but either way, you're getting a lot of bang for your buck here. On top of that, you get a choice of a all the classic burger toppings including grilled mushrooms and jalapenos - sweet! But of course, and as other Yelpers have already trumpeted, the CAJUN FRIES is where it's at - there's basically no reason to even offer the regular fries. These fries are a must-try! read more

The burger is pretty good value for what you pay for it, but even though I was full after the meal I did find the bun to be soggy and the fries was quite salty. Other than that the server was welcoming and friendly. read more

Its not as good as dedicated Burger joints like holy chucks or burgers priest, but it's better than hero Burger or any fast food joint. The Burgers: Burgers are cooked well done, and are made to order. They have a plethora of toppings that can be added and though cooked well done, it's plenty juicy. The fries: The fries are definitely a winner. Fresh cut fries, sourced from different potatoes week to week and come in plain or cajun. A small order is enough for 2, as they give you a container of fries, and then dump a container of loose fries into the bag. Who doesn't love eating "bag fries"?! It's like a gift within a gift. All in all if I'm around Yonge and dundas and am in the mood for a burger, I opt for 5 guys over big smoke in Eaton centre. read more

Five Guys - Just a good ol hamburger with the works - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

A pal and I came here for lunch yesterday. We immediately noticed the really good service here. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. As soon as patrons left, there was a woman who came around to wipe down the table, ask how the meal was, and wish those patrons a good weekend. There was also another staff member who came around encouraging all to take some complimentary peanuts. I ordered a Little Cheeseburger and my pal ordered a Little Hamburger combo (which came with fries). Having my burger go 'All the Way' made it quite tasty. The burgers here are quite large so you should be okay with ordering a Little Hamburger. In addition, if you're jonesin' for fries, one order is big enough for two people. I'm not sure when I'll be back as Ryerson or the Eaton Centre are not my usual hang-outs, but if I'm in the area (and I've exercised and ate well for the week) I might drop by again. read more

I would come back if I'm craving for a fast-food burger. However I'd have to say thumbs up to their friendly, flamboyant cashiers. As well as how quick they pump out the burgers. But Burger Priest still has my heart! read more

First time here at any Five Guys location, finally a convenient location (also right next to Silver Snail for the comic book lovers). So heres the deal I know how they flatten their burger patties so I order a regular cheeseburger vs a little cheeseburger, the difference is one beef pattie & $2 in price raised. After consuming the regular (double pattie) cheeseburger, I can say I would be happy with a little cheeseburger. If you got a mammoth hunger or just the type to order a burger and drink then the regular (double pattie) will fill you up. Back to the cheese burger, for toppings I went "all the way" (see picture of menu I'm posting), and it was great. I'm not one for tomatoes on my burger cause I think makes everything soggy, not here it works very well in this classic cheese burger -- and its more like a firm meaty tomatoe slices. Also you get the little crustyness on the outside of the pattie from the grill and OMG the cheese just melts so amazingly well. I just read someone raving about their grilled cheese below, definitely gonna try that next time. I went with a friend and was going to share fries with him, firstly regular sized fries is more than enough for two people -- I hear large fries are good for 3-4 people. Unfortunately my buddy chose cajun fries vs the regular five guys style, and I usually like cajun fries -- but here its way too salty. At least drink refills are free, so if you're not into extremely salty fries then probably go with regular. And don't get me wrong I eat like lays potatoe chips all the time, but the cajun fries here are too salty. NOW HERES THE THING.... BEST CHEESE BURGER EVER .... EVEN BETTER THAN BURGER PRIEST! I'm gonna get hate mail over this. Heres my reasoning, I used to like Burger Priest's Cheese Burger when you could get your burger done rare --- cause it was so juicy it was amazing. But now you can only get it done medium at Priests now after some dumb customers complained, which is not juicy at all. But Five Guys cheese burger is juicy and with goeey (processed only way to go) cheesy goodness. So I declare it the best Cheese Burger for me in Toronto, done. read more

Five Guys - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I went to 5 Guys restaurant for a bacon burger, fries, and a soft drink that cost 19 dollars. Despite all the printed reviews hanging along the walls, I thought that the hamburger was okay. It was kind of dry. The fries were okay too. Nothing special about 5 Guys that warrant the price. read more

I've always liked 5 Guys from the first time I went to one in Alexandria Virginia. But I really like this location as it has a really cosmopolitan clientele. Now one of my favourite things to order at 5 Guys is a chocolate malt. You don't see them very much anymore. But when I was a teenager a few decades ago they were very popular. The fry's here are hand cut and fried in peanut oil. They taste better that way imho. But the star here is the burgers. But be careful as they can get pretty big and filling. The best part is that you can customize them just the way you like them. Onions on that burger? If you say yes, they then ask you if you want them raw, fried or caramelized! You will find the staff at this location friendly and patient. Be sure to grab some free peanuts to munch on while you're waiting as they make your food. read more

3.5? Burger was tasty and sizeably portioned. Price is a little steep. The place had an unpleasant odour. Not sure if it's the grease but I've never smelled anything like that at any other fast food place. They keep sacks of potatoes on skids on the dining room floor which I don't know how to feel about. A-OK place for an occasional burger. read more

Credit card machine wouldn't work. Nobody would help the cashier who didn't know how to handle it. Messy as hell. Milkshake wasn't ready when they called my number. When I asked about the shake the guy turned and yelled "milkshake", and nobody did anything about it. Five more orders get called and I can see nobody is doing anything about the shake so I ask again. A few more orders go by. Finally somebody gets to work on the shake. The cups are empty. He disappears into the back and returns with cups. The machine is empty. Disappears longer. Reloads machine. Orders keep going by. My fries get cold. A soupshake is finally ready. Jalapeños are missing. Resignation. read more

Once you try Five Guys burger you will never see other burgers in the same light. What's crazy is that it actually tastes like real meat! Can you believe it? I couldn't either. I've tried other locations but keep coming back to this one! read more

Meat was under seasoned (possibly not even seasoned). Toppings were plentiful and free. Fries are good too. Regular hamburger has two patties so it's definitely filling. The free peanuts are in a box at the back. Not as greasy as the priest or chuck, but good quality for smack in the middle of downtown t.o. read more

It been awhile since I walked down Yonge and Five Guys caught my eye... mostly because their decor was a little like In-n-Out in California. Curious, I walked in and decided to give their burger a try. I ordered a little burger, I liked their wide selection of free toppings including grilled onions and mushrooms. I just ordered the onions with a few other condiments but it's nice to know the mushroom option is there. The burgers are all done well done, which gives them a crispy exterior which I like but it wasn't dry which is often the case with well done burgers. And wet, "juicy" burgers are over rated I think, mostly because they're messy and make the bun soggy. And unless the burger place is using premium beef and is put on a plate to be consumed immediately, I'd rather they cook it through. The crisp exterior compliments condiments better and has a lot more flavour. Think fast-food burger, not gourmet burger and you'll be pleasantly surprised. I didn't like that they didn't offer combos tho, and that their smallest order of fries was massive and $4. Seeing as this is a pop in when I'm hungry and in a rush type place rather than a night out type place, it'd be nice to have a smaller option if I wanted to grab and go. Also the service was a bit slow and unhelpful. There was no one behind me in line and when I asked what the difference between a little burger and a regular burger was the lady at the counter seemed a bit annoyed. I'm sure she gets asked that question a lot but don't blame the customer if your menu is unclear. And I waited a bit longer than you would expect for burgers made on an assembly line. But all in all, my first experience was good and I always weigh food much higher than anything else on my reviews so 4 stars it is! I'll probably go back and try a few other items on the menu and update my review accordingly. read more
