With all the hype surrounding this place, I thought it was going to be better. Perhaps if the buzz hadn't been so positive I wouldn't have expected so much and the review your about to read wouldn't be so scathing. The fries were everything I hate in fries--soggy, tasted like they had been under lights forever, over-cooked. The burger was okay, but if you live in North Jersey, just head over to White Manna. It's far more worth your time if you want some bad-for-you-but-good-for-your-soul burgers. Over all...these were just bad-bad-for-you-burgers. read more

Compared to the Hackensack location, this location is much more organized and well-ran. Enjoyed the burger and loved the Cajun fries. Cost more than your typical fast food but it was a lot tastier. read more

This location is great, and as opposed to other locations, they have a huge soda selection, which includes much more diet options than just the Diet Coke typically offered. I would suggest trying a single hamburger on a bun rather than a double, because it is filling. Also a word to the wise: the fries come plentiful in a bag. read more

I think this would be the best burger place I have ever visited. The only reason why I gave it 4 stars is because I did not like the fries. But let me back up to the beginning..... First of all - don't even attempt to walk in if you are allergic to peanuts. They have an unlimited amount stashed everywhere - you can grab as many as you want. Once you get up to the counter, it should take only a couple of seconds to make up your mind on what to order. The menu is super limited, but it's okay because the burgers are delicious. They are the only think you really need in order to have a good experience. They also have hot dogs and grilled cheese if your not into burgers. Oh and all the toppings are free - you can have as many as you want. When it comes to fries you you can have either small or large - regular or cajun. The cajun are better than the regular and the small is enough to feed about three people. Oh and they are hand cut - if you like that kind of kind of fries. Prices are cheap - you can feed 5 grown adults for $40. Not to bad if you think about it. read more

Will never go here again. Real winners at this location. Extremely slow and could care less about you as a customer.

If you are looking for a good burger... best try another place. This was a DRY burger YUK!!!! I like my burgers medium and they DON'T make 'em medium, just well done (why). The fresh cut fries... they were just... eh! I won't go back, but if you like uncontrolled kids you should go (a bunch of rug-rats running around)... but they can't control the kids. read more

I can understand some of the negative reviews about this chain. However, I eat here, and like it, because it just tastes good. I like all the toppings on the burger, and how its "juicy well-done". I like how the fries are not crispy and a bit greasy. I like how you can get free peanuts, though god knows I can barely finish the burger and fries let alone have room for peanuts. Its different, and I think for a greasy binge its a great treat. The ONE negative comment I have is that when they put the burger in the bag first and then put the molten lava hot fries on top of it, its rather unpleasant trying to dig through the fries while deep frying my hand trying to get the burger out. Eventually I will remember to ask for separate bags or the burger on top... read more

High quality and fast service, but a little expensive for groups. Good for a quick and delicious bite !

These comments are more chain related than individual location related. 1) Almost $26 for two hamburgers (not cheeseburgers) 1 fries, and two shakes is simply too expensive in my opinion. I would not go back. 2) I didn't know that their regular burger was a double burger. I assume their "little burger" is a single? This wasn't clear on the menu...or perhaps I missed it. 3) they have 2 different listed Oreo shakes, one "cream", one "cookie pieces". Self-explanatory? I don't know. New to me. What do they do....strain the cookies out? Not a big deal but when I ordered an Oreo Shake she asked me if I wanted pieces in it. Odd to me. Personally I don't care about the free all u can eat peanuts (it doesn't seem like a natural compliment to a burger) or all the "free" toppings - as if they should ever charge for mustard or mayo or lettuce. Fact is, I didn't really care for the taste of the burger or the fries all that much. read more

mixed feelings about this place. Much better than major corporate junk, but please can I get served a burger that doesn't look like the cook sat on it? Needs a real bun to stand up to the rest of it. I like the frys, YMMV though if you are used to processed frozen Crap.... read more

This food was wet juicy and scrumptious. Tasting the red catch up in my mouth made my mouth water and yearn for more

I first discovered 5 guys in 2009 and it's been love at first sight since then. I consider myself a burger aficionado and I have to say 5 guys are a welcome relief to all those other burger joints like that that rip off smash burger and zinburger. Let me give you a little helpful advice on how to order at 5 guys 1. The burgers are a little pricey but regular burger comes with 2 patties the "little" burgers are 1 patty plus all the toppings are FREE, so stack that burger with all the fixins, so that $8 burger seems a little more reasonable 2. Everything is Ala carte, but it makes up for it in quantity 3. Fries are delicious, they come in 3 different sizes small, that seems a bit excessive and did they just give a separate paper bag JUST for my fries, seriously the first time I went and ordered fries my eyes went bugger then the moon when I saw the amount 3. The milkshakes are fantastic 4. Their dogs are good, but not as good as rutts hut, sorry but they are in a different universe when it comes to dogs at rutt's hut 5. Complimentary peanuts, that's right who doesn't love free peanuts, I always make sure to take advantage of that All in all excellent place, great service and atmosphere read more

Starbucks, Saladworks, and Anthony's coal fire pizzeria all contribute to making this Five guys a relatively quick and easy spot to grab a bite in a hurry during the lunch rush. Located in the Michael's plaza on 23 across from Paul Miller and Panera, 5 Guys is always a great burger cooked to perfection. I came here starving and left with my stomach full of burger, and my pockets full of peanuts.. read more

Super chocolate milkshake . Love the fries too; plenty of them in a brown bag. Then you add the malt vinegar. Yum ! Pretty disappointed with the burger though. Sloppy and unmanageable. My husband had the BLT and it was nothing but a cold roll with wet lettuce, half-ripe tomato, and crumbled cold bacon. We ate there, and the music selection was awful and too loud. I'm really sorry about this, because it would have been a future fave of mine. I will go back to get take-out fries and milkshake. Good luck. read more

Much trepidation about this because of the plethora of recommendations by locals. Who know nothing about food. Wow what a pleasant surprise. Three stars only because of the cafeteria style atmosphere, loud ambient noise level, location in a difficult to get to strip mall with a crowded parking lot. ( Sorry, pedestrians......but if you dislike the way I drive, stay off the sidewalk!) Other than that it was only the best hamburger that I have ever eaten. Anywhere. Ever. Sorry Terrance Brennan. Excuse moi, Alain Ducasse. I will never ever grind meat to make my own burgers again. no point. Fries are good, but lightly seasoned. Portions are huge, and everything is made to order. Vegans stay home. Fries are fried in peanut oil, and fresh peanuts are served self-service for munching while you wait. Allergic types stay home. It is only fast food. But life would be really grand if everyone did what they do as well as these folks do burgers. read more

Yum! I love coming here for lunch. I always get the bacon cheeseburger, fries and a milkshake. Food is usually done pretty quickly (even if it took long I wouldn't care because the food is great) The location is very convenient right off of Rt. 23 in Wayne. read more

Clueless service at this place. The guy manning the counter right now is just not with it. Barely busy and I had to stand there for 10 full minutes while he went into the back room, then he came out and started to take someone's order who had just walked in. Like I said... clueless. read more

Absolutely ridiculous. The last 3 times we have ordered to go we have been missing at least one item. This place has gone completely down hill. Won't make the mistake of trusting this places online ordering again. Get it together. read more

Great Service, lived everything about my time here. The people were very nice and the food was too.

Pretty good as far as fast food burgers go. Blows McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, etc. right out of the water. The quality of the fries is inconsistent. Sometimes they are undercooked. They are also often over or under seasoned. I LOVE their new soda machine. You choose the type of soda you want, then the flavor. I've read that it is purely for coke's statistical research. Weather or not that's the case, I'm all about the diet cherry coke. They have a couple of male employees that will flirt with you, no matter how disinterested you seem. One of them has even made borderline lewd comments right to my face, and stared and tried to get my attention while I was eating. Now I just take it to go. *EDIT* Pain in the butt employees are no longer there. I was told that women have complained about one of them. read more

Fun place. You can snack on peanuts while you wait in line (the fries are cooked in peanut oil). Hamburger was really good (I got the big cheeseburger) especially considering its $6. It's got one of those Coke machines with like 1000 varieties. Fries were only ok. All in all a pretty good experience. read more

5 guys is the pick of the litter when it comes to burgers and fast food joints. They give you an enormous amount of fries when you order. Their burgers are the best out of all the fast food franchises. Also their cheese dogs are exceptional. They offer online ordering for a fast pickup. They make everything fresh as ordered. When eating fast food garbage, at least they make your garbage fresh. Be prepared to be incapacitated after a meal at 5 guys! read more

A coworker recommended this place a while back and I haven't had the chance to come and visit until recently. It's next to one of my favorite spots in the area, Baja Fresh. Opting to try something new, I decided to hit this place up with a friend of mine. I wasn't expecting anything fantastic but I was quite pleasantly surprised. Fast-food burger joints tend to be fast on service and later on will make you run to the bathroom just as fast (if you're catching my drift). But I have to honestly say that the burger was rather quite delicious. Ordering is simple enough. Pick your burger, add toppings, decide if you want fries, and grab soda from their awesome soda machine. I actually spent most of my time staring at the soda machine and all it's glory. It's like an iPad that spits out whatever flavored soda you want (can somebody say lime and orange Fanta mix!!!). anyways the burger was juicy, the fries were delicious, although it could have used more of a kick for it to truly be called Cajun, and the endless supply of peanuts to munch on made for a great visit. Ask me if I would come again and my answer is absolutely in a heart beat, that is if my heart doesn't stop from all the grease I would consume coming here! read more

Five Guys - Yuuuuummmmmmmmm - Burgers Near Me - Wayne, New Jersey

Can't go wrong with Five Guys. If you have never been it's like a fast food sit down restaurant, but with great food. No fake garbage real meat. I HIGHLY recommend if you want to get some quick food. read more

Love there burgers fricken awesome very tasty and so many condiments to put on not to mention unlimited peanuts to eat while you wait

I am disappointed. The burger is BIG, but that's all. No taste. Fries do taste fresh, but soggy. For the price, I won't go back.

The burgers are consistently awesome. The fries can be hit or miss. Clean place. Always busy, but not so much that there isn't a place to sit or too long of a line. read more

Great food, great staff, overall great place to spend my time. Food came out quickly and was cooked perfectly. The fries were made hot and I think the potatoes came from heaven or something because they made my day! Shakes were made even faster and were delicious. The place was clean. Nothing out of order. Nothing wrong with the place! Soda machines were actually working and had plenty of options. Can't wait to go again! Best restaurant ever! I definitely recommend everyone to go there unless you have a peanut allergy. By the way, this was a perfect location because it is near the highway and right in a plaza. Where ever you are in Wayne, go to Five Guys! read more

Great burgers and fries. Major toppings available for crating your own burger. Fries are really good and they give you a TON!

Five Guys is the bomb. Everyone knows that. But the Wayne store is particularly awesome. Love the classic rock they always have playing on the radio, and the employees are the friendliest bunch I have ever seen rocking a fast food place. Keep up the great work guys. read more

Great burger! I love the fries as well! Always good and quick!

I am a burger fan because there is a lot to be said about the lonely burger. A slab of beef packed in a bun...just down right yummy. Greasy burgers have been my sinful vice since God knows when. Now the five guys let down. Very greasy yes but not good flavor. I don't see the hype people give this place. Save the $$$ and go else where. You will not be happy here. read more

Was surprised by how fresh the burgers and fries were. Ordered a cheeseburger "loaded" w jalapeno peppers. Was $8 for the burger (double patty). The thing that really surprised me was that the jalapenos were fresh. Gave the burger a really nice kick. Also had the Cajun fries. Really yummy too. Fries weren't too crunchy but that's fine by me. Don't like them too crispy. Fairly priced for a good quality burger. read more

Some of the best burgers and fries you can get including non chain places. The fries are always farm sourced and signage inside tells you where they are from. They also have buckets of peanuts available for snacking. The Cajun fries are excellent, nice and crispy and well seasoned. The burgers are also incredible, the secret is in the smash technique on the grill. Make sure to load up on free toppings to make it special. read more

Best burgers around, eat here all the time! Burgers are super juicy, taste amazing and their Cajun fries are simply awesome. Definitely a must try. read more

Excellent burgers!! Fries are cooked in peanut oil and are delicious! Always a good meal.

I have to imagine everyone here knows what Five Guys is. The first time I ever had it in SC like 9 years ago it was a game changer in the realm of quality casual food and specifically burgers. In recent years I'm certain they are using less beef and charging at least 20-30% more depending on your locale. It is still tasty, but $7 for JUST a burger is pushing it. No, that's crossing the line. Regarding this specific location in Wayne, I know you get more fries at the location in Parsippany. So there's that. read more

Good, solid juicy burgers. Very tasty The "small" fries are enough to feed two people. Service is quick, and courteous. This is my local go-to burger joint now. BK and Mickey D's can't even hold a candle to this place. read more

Great burgers fast but not processed have it any way you want I had it with jalapenos and cheese cooked just right got a bag of fries the fries could feed 4 people and as I was waiting all the peanuts you want definitely come back I just wish one was closer to where I live read more

Bomb food! Love the burgers! Can't go wrong when you're looking for a quick bite to eat. A++
