They won't give you a cup for water. They charge you for a drink even if you want tap water. This might not be illegal, but it's certainly unethical. read more

Never order large fries because you will never finish them. Best burger in DC! I know everyone is saying the same thing. That's because it's really good. The fancy coke machine makes me want to pass the Five Guys that is close to me and choose to go this one. read more

As far as 5 Guys go, this is one of my favorite. Spacious, clean layout and single file ordering line make the food taste better somehow. I would have upped my daily lunch allowance if I knew this location had more milkshakes. Oh well maybe next time I'll have $5 to spare. Standard 5 Guys love their burgers and Cajun fries. One less star because of the milkshake prices. read more

Maybe if I hadn't grown up in Southern California, spoiled by In N' Out, I could give this place a better rating. It's a similar concept just not as well executed. I ordered the grilled cheese with grilled mushrooms. The sandwich was a bit on the small side and the mushrooms had little flavor. It was okay. The free peanuts are a nice touch but I probably wouldn't go back. read more

Though some may consider five guys to be a blossoming fanchise in the DMV area i feel a little at home at every one i go to. The burgers are all cooked to a medium well-well done temperature but i have no quarrel with this. what i love so much about this place is the size helpings. well using the word "love" can be misleading as i cannot order one of the regular size burgers which is actually just two patties stack like the most delicious game of jenga. The premise is simple pay for the bun and meat, it's up to you whether or not you want cheese or the meat or champions, bacon, then you can add on any of the other delectable, fresh ingredients. What you're left with is the best tower of a burger $5 can buy. The regular size order of fries can feed a family of four unless they're american. the soda machine at this particular plave isone of the most innovative i've seen in america. I haven't seen anything like it since my trip to Toyko Japan in 2003. Seeing as that was almost a decade ago i can only wonder what they have there now. read more

One of my favorite burger places. Great juicy burgers! Place to go if you like meat in your burger. I am from LA and now there are five guys in Southern California. But I don't know what it is.... they are not as good as the places on the East Coast! Throw in free peanuts and an option for sweet potato fries. read more

Today a friend of mine was on her way to work and had to get off train to get shuttle. She came in and asked if she could use the rest room it was an emergency. The guy told her she had to buy something which she could not do. He was disrespectful and when she asked for the manager he said he was. And if she wasn't going to buy something she had to get out. He was rude and arrogant. It would have cost him nothing to help. That five guys just lost a customer and many new ones. read more

Just got a shake and it came out covered in whipped cream on the outside and the whipped cream was terribly done and the shake was only 75% of the way to the top. When the employee gave it to me, she knew this was probably the least appealing shake. I looked st the shake then at her, and she proceeded to only take the whipped cream out of the outside. I kept not taking it, waiting for her to fix the whipped cream, but she never did. I took the shake and left. Overall, the shake had little oreo pieces, and was very runny. The lack of whipped cream was noticeable. I usually enjoy Five Guys, and this location is usually fine, but the terrible quality that I encountered has change my perspective on this location. read more

One of my favorite go to places for something fast and fresh. AND THEY SERVE SHAKES NOW!

DO NOT EAT HERE! I had the worst customer service ever!!! I understand you have to be a paying customer before using the restroom, but when I asked for the code, I was told in Spanish. 1. That's racist. 2. This country's primary language is English. Use it first. After I used the bathroom I went straight to the cashier and tried to buy a soda because I used their bathroom. The cashier, Ardealia, immediately had a pissed off face and gave my brother an attitude when he asked for the code so he could go to the bathroom too. She started yelling at him saying why didn't he just wait until we left and use it after? Literally yelling. Well, he was trying to explain that another coworker of hers told my brother to buy something first and then he can get the code. So he came straight to the cashier but I was already buying something so he asked for the code again. The cashier continued to yell at my brother over and over again saying she doesn't understand what he wants and he should've gone after us. Another coworker kept trying to speak to him in Spanish and he told her he wasn't Hispanic. I really wanted to yell back at the cashier for yelling at my brother but I told him the code and tried to get him away from her. By that time he just walked out. The cashier also told me the soda I was buying was $2.38 at first. After the whole argument she said it was $3.38. I asked her about it and she said Oh yeah I meant to say $3.38. I said ok, paid for it, filled my drink, and left. The entire crew we interacted with were all disgustingly rude and impatient. Coming from Hawaii where everyone greets each other with smiles and Aloha, then coming to this Five Guys location was such a culture shock. I do not ever want what I just went through to happen to anyone else. Nobody deserves such disrespect. After we left, I drank my vanilla cherry flavored Mr. Pibb and was also disappointed. Turns out it was diet. Really Five Guys?!?! Treat your customers better. End rant. read more

Great food just like Five Guys always provides. The gnats around the ketchup were the only downgrade. Friendly staff, fast service and again the best fast food burger around. read more

I am still wondering why some people compare five guys to In & out. Five guys is just ok. Just a typical greasy burger. Nothing to be excited about. The frie to me is too greasy.. the free peanut is a plus but I dont't drool over their burger: read more

I always become hesitant when I enter five guys and see $5.29 for a little bacon cheeseburger and $7.29 for a regular bacon cheeseburger. I immediate think of the days when Wendy's had the $0.99 junior bacon cheeseburger and how years later we're at a $5 and change for a "little cheeseburger". But then I order the regular bacon cheeseburger, add lettuce tomato pickles bbq sauce, and remember that it's only money lol. These burgers are darn good, darn juicy, and darn large. This location is easy to get to as there is a ton of pay street parking, and it is quite metro accessible using McPherson Square. The staff was very friendly, place was clean, my order came out quick and exactly as I ordered it. They always give you a ton of fries, and while I never get any I like the fact they offer the peanuts. I'd come here all the time if my doctor wouldn't side eye me. Customer service here makes this place stand out above other locations. read more

Five Guys - Burgers Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Popped in here for a quick lunch. I wish I had known more about this place before ordering as we ended up with more food than we anticipated. I actually thought that they might have mistakenly added a second patty to my burger. Whoops! I was really pleasantly surprised by the meal. McDonald's et al. are completely blown out of the water by this establishment. Gooey, melted cheese, meat juicy and cooked to perfection. It's great that the toppings, even the mushrooms aren't extra. I hear the only thing not "fresh" are the mushrooms which are canned, but everything else tasted delicious and freezer-burn free. The fries were delicious as well - crisp and thick cut. Next time, I think I'll go for a little cheeseburger. The free peanuts are a fun touch and I like that they tell you where the day's potatoes have come from. If I'm out and about and forced to go with "fast food", I'd choose this place over everything else any day. read more

5/5 STARS this place is beast!!! If anyone decides to go to a five guys you HAVE to try the Cajun Fries man they are sooo tasty but its a super large portion so the regular you can share with someone else. The burgers are pretty high up there with Fudruckers, but for now fudruckers has them beat. Congrats Five Guys! read more

Had a burger with onions and mushrooms, well the burger was over cooked/ burnt. Onions were supposed to be grilled, they were not and the mushrooms were rubbery and tasteless. I've had Five Guys before and it was good so I think it's just this location. Who ever is managing this location needs to make some serious changes. read more

I always love this place no matter which one I go to. Excellent burgers, and a very unhealthy but delicious breakfast. Always remember to add jalapenos to whatever you get and ask for the cajun fries "well done" and your experience will be elevated three or four levels. read more

Average 5 guys. Same GF options as all five guys. Fast service and good fast food.

Easily the best location in the entire franchise. Great view of square, awesome custom drink machine, and best of all they serve breakfast (only non-airport location that does). read more

My first ever (and probably last) visit to a Five Guys. Very disappointing experience and expensive for what it is. Our food looked like it had literally been thrown together and then chucked in a paper bag. There were fries all over the place! Staff seemed miserable too. read more

I ate here on both June 26th and June 21st. The first time I ate there, I noticed that I felt a little bit queasy the day after...but I didn't think it was a big deal and I didn't know if it was necessarily because of that. I went back for lunch on the 26th...a few hours later, the worst stomach ache of my life began. I was doubling over on my way home work, I took several doses of Pepto-Bismol throughout the evening and night. At night, it got so bad that I thought I would have to be hospitalized for food poisoning. It had to be Five Guys, because I did not eat anything else that day prior to the stomach ache. Also, I wanted to use their rest room and I was told I would have to order food first. A short while later, an attractive blonde came in and said she needed to use the restroom. No one made her order first. She promptly walked out and left afterward. Regardless, my one-star is for the food...not that. Tastes great, but boy...I won't be eating there again. read more

If I can give no stars I would. This restaurant doesn't deserve any. A employee was rude and so was the manager. I came to order a burger but before I did I go to wash my hand. I ask for the code and she automatically say I have to pay. I felt discriminated why because she was Hispanic and I'm black. I said I was but I want to was my hands she refused so I call for the manager who is also Hispanic Name is Oscar the Rudeness that I got from him. When I told him what happened he spoke to her in Spanish and then look at me and said she did nothing wrong. I was in disbelief. I will report this to everybody. I will never eat here again. This place is racist they are rude and if u are not Spanish they will discriminate against you. read more

Five Guys is everything that I need in a hamburger. It fills me up beyond compare, so much so I wouldn't even dare coming here once a month. Just for the calorie factor alone. Although the prices a little much, you kind of get what you pay for. Nevertheless, it's the best burger that I've ever had. I would even pay $5 for the fries! read more

This is going to hurt some feelings. Five Guys is better than In-N-Out. It's better than Shake Shack (i was conflicted about this), and it's better than YOUR home state burger chain. NoVa gets no respect, but this is the burger. People have a burger from home in their hearts...only DC folks ain't lying to themselves. read more

Praise the Lord, it's right around the corner from my house!!!!!

Good food - cooked the way Five guys cooks their food. Nothing special about this place except that it's busy and the after spot burger joint. I only come here after a night of partying and the food always hits the spot. read more

They actually have shakes when the other five guys locations don't! Great place and recommend to anyone craving a burger and fries

5 guys is the standard by which all new burger chains are measured against, and why I don't understand why all these new burger places keep popping up in this area? Most can't compete in quality, taste or price. Getting a little more specific to this location I like the view, location(above McPherson sq metro), service is friendly and quick, and its larger. Lots of seating even when it's super busy. There are many reasons I love this chain. I use to go to the first location in Arlington and through peanuts on the floor. I love that a burger shop from Arlington that doesn't advertise is the fastest growing food chain in the US. I love that even a little fries is more then I can normally finish. I love that you can order Cajun seasoning on the fries and that it's not on the menu so it makes you seem like in some super secret spy club. Yes, a burger & fries combo will most like give you the itis but that is what big heavy food does. I can't eat here regularly, but when I want know what super full feels like, it's time to go 5 guys. read more

Ordered a large bucket of fries and we got much more than that. Our bucket was literally overflowing past the brim with fresh hot fries. Top it off with trays of free peanuts and you got the perfect snack for watching the Olympics. read more

This place is the best Five Guys I've been to. Burgers are always cooked perfectly and they always seem to be open on saturdays when I get out of the club... weird but so delicious. read more

I had five guys many times before, never had one so bad. The bread is soggy, the beef is overcooked. It is all wrong in this five guys. If I'm the owner, I will close this store before it ruins the reputation of five guys. read more

Thank you for appearing LITERALLY across the street from my office. I'm lucky I can't actually gaze at you from where I sit during the day. I was famished, and my nearly fully-loaded Little Hamburger with BBQ sauce and peños hit my savory spot in a way that could put a skilled lothario to shame. You may not exactly be "gourmet," but...how are you so consistently solid? It's obscene. Now I can't get the Cajun fries off my mind. Should've gotten fries. read more

Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on how you look at it, this place is RIGHT NEXT to the Metro. It is always tempting to stop by after work to grab a bite to eat, as you can smell the food walking to the Metro. I have been to this location for both lunch and dinner and have enjoyed it. The line at lunch time can get long, so either go early or wait a little; however, the line moves quickly. The food is prepared fresh, and the burgers, hot dogs, and fries all taste great. read more

I love 5 Guys and this location is a well run example of the brand. The burgers are hot and made just the way I want. The fries are perfect, crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. read more

Burger was a little on the smaller size, but tasty, juicy, and filling. No charge for toppings like grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, green peppers, jalapeno peppers, bbq sauce, hot sauce, and you can choose to have them all! Coming from the Bay Area, can't beat the price either, although the fries are a little expensive for a small cup. I only had $10 on me so had to pass and go for a drink. Will be back to try their dogs at some point this week. read more

No attention to detail. Order wrong (burger inedible). Cashier couldn't make change w/o the register. Two separate transactions to break a $10. No one seemed to care. Plenty of better burger spots in DC. Almost made McDonald's look good. read more

We all know the burgers are spectacular but who would've guessed adding eggs could so wonderful. That's right a bacon burger with egg is my breakfast. Don't judge me because I love good food. If your ever near a five guys in the am goes I suggest stopping in for a breakfast sandwich and l am sure you will be back. I really enjoy this treat. Not my every day meal but when I feel like something heavy in the belly it's my choice. read more

Ok. I gave it a try as I'm Californian and these are still rare there while In-n-Out is everywhere. And I hate to burst y'alls bubble - this doesn't even come close to In-n-Out. Was everything obviously fresh? Yes. Cooked well? The burger, yes. The fries? I tried the Cajun fries and while I liked the spices, most were limp and many were soggy! That's a fail in my book. There was also something very key missing from the burger - seasoning! There was almost none. And the cheese tasted a little off to me. Sorry, folks. If you haven't had the opportunity to experience In-n-Out yet, find one and prepare to have your mind blown. For those daring to think this can even compare? Years of being on the east coast must have dulled your tastebuds. Sorry. read more

Great tasting burger. True value is in the plethora of toppings available (I think at least 15) and free peanuts. Can't beat being able to customize a burger like you would at an outdoor family picnic, minus the flies and irritating aunts. Extra bump due to Obama factor circa 2008. In N Out still the king! read more

During my stay in the States, I hear many people talk about Five Guys. I personally is not a very big fan of American fast food. I went to this eatery the other day with some colleagues. Compared to Mcdonald's, the menu is a bit short. I tried to spot some seafood burgers here, but without any success. So I ordered a cheese burger, but still with a big slice beef. The food was ok, and will last quite some time for me. read more
