As a finicky eater, I appreciate the idea of a la carte ordering schemes. I always appreciate fresh food (unless the burger comes from McDonalds...then it requires an amount of heat lamp time for the cheese to melt and the juices to soak in.) The Mister and I were discussing the weirdness of "good food, fast" that is uncommon. With Five Guys, you expect the meal to be up in seconds (it isn't--it takes about five minutes) and the quality to be sub par. Instead, the burgers, having taken a little longer, are a treat once you get them back to your powder coated aluminum chair.
The joint is one of the few places you can get Mellow Yellow and Mister Pibb around here. I also have not bestowed proper adulation on their french fries...but let's leave it saying that it is sort of like the Fountains of Wayne/Jill Sobule double bill--you are left wondering if they chose the right headliner.
