It is pretty overpriced, but definitely delicious food. Some of the best burgers I've found within a few miles of my house. They give you a messload of food too, just a small fries could be considered a meal.

Five Guys

A little pricey, but worth it every now and then. It's only three or four bucks more than a Wendy's Baconator combo.
There are about 15 Five Guys locations in the Atlanta metroplex. The burgers and fries are top-notch. The problem I have is trying not to eat too many free peanuts while standing in line.

Five Guys is sooooooooo goooooood! Make sure you try a double bacon cheeseburger with jalapeņos, they use fresh jalapeņos! Mmmmmm mmmm mmmmmmmm.

If you've never been, I would check to see if there is a place near you by the name of Cheeburger Cheeburger. The burgers aren't quite as good as Five Guys, but they have a million toppings, and the onion rings will blow you away.

Bah! I'm hungry now.

When I was in Naples, Florida back in the beggining of June I went to one with my cousin.

It was absolutely the best thing I have ever eaten.

I had the double burger with fried onions, pickles, bacon, all the sauces, lettuce, and I put my french fries on it.

pure gold...
