Verdict: Our expert take on Five Guys
Food (6.3 out of 10)
mentioned by 94% of the guests
When it comes to the food, theres a lot to chew on! Based on 107 customer remarks, with 59 positive comments, many folks rave about the delicious burgers, often calling them undeniably good and hot and fresh. The milkshakes also get a lot of love for being tasty, and who can forget the joy of those free peanuts while you wait?
The overall score for food sits at an 6.3, indicating an average experience. However, its not all sunshine and perfectly cooked patties. With 32 negative comments, some diners found the food to be overpriced, especially for a small burger or small fries.
The fries themselves are a bit of a mixed bag, with some finding them terrible, drenched in oil, or cold. There were also instances of wrong toppings or incorrect orders, contributing to a customer satisfaction of 55.1%, which is definitely mixed.

- foodI stopped in for a quick lunch and experienced incredibly fast and friendly staff. The food was also great, and the atmosphere was enjoyable. It was a wonderful experience overall.
- friesI came here for lunch and found that, as expected, Five Guys is superior to traditional fast food. However, I didn't give it a five-star rating because the total cost for my burger, fries, and a drink, including Seattle/Washington tax, was around $23. While I acknowledge the burger is superior to McDonald's with more customization options, McDonald's is conveniently located just 75 yards away in the same parking lot and offers a double cheeseburger, McNuggets, fries, and a drink for $6.

- BLT sandwichthe BLT was made so well it was perfect
- BurgerBurger was pretty good
- Five Guys qualityThe fries were excellent, but the burger was a little drier than I've had at other Five Guys locations. Overall, I still believe Five Guys quality is better than all other fast food burger joints.
- FoodFood:5
Frequently criticized
- friesThe grill guy was efficient, preparing my burger in about six minutes. However, it took an excessive twelve minutes for the other staff members, who seemed to be drifting around, to place already made fries in my bag and hand it over. This disorganization suggests a lack of management.
- foodfood is fast food not gourmet
- burgerThe food was overpriced, and the fries were excessively over-salted. In today's market, there are definitely better places to get a burger.
- Five Guys friesthe fries was terrible!
- FoodFood:1
- bacon cheeseburgerWhile the staff were nice during pickup and the other two burgers and milkshakes were good, my last order was a significant letdown. I received a bacon cheeseburger without the two hamburger patties and without the cheese, leaving me with just a bun, bacon, and toppings. This was incredibly disappointing, especially since they were already closed by the time I discovered the mistake.
- burger and friesthey put the wrong condiments on the burger
- burger placeMost overrated burger place ever
- burger shake and friesburger shake and fries is ridiculous for one person
- burgersI was excited for a 5 Guys in West Seattle, but it wasn't the same as I remember. The burgers were priced at $14 for a double, and the fries were $8. Overall, it felt like a rip off, especially since the fries were cold.
If youre craving a solid burger and a tasty milkshake, this spot might hit the mark, especially with those free peanuts. However, be prepared for potentially higher prices and a gamble on the fries, which can be a real hit or miss. Its worth a try if you manage expectations, but don't be surprised by an inconsistent experience.

If you're looking for a generally clean spot with a good atmosphere, this place is worth checking out. Just be prepared that it might feel a bit quiet or have some minor tidiness issues, and the music could be on the louder side.
Value (2.8 out of 10)
mentioned by 52% of the guests
When it comes to value, it seems there's not much to cheer about here. While a couple of folks did find a value deal or considered it their favorite burger joint under $20, these positive sentiments are quite rare, with only 2 positive opinions out of 34 total. The overall score for value sits at a rather poor 2.8, and customer satisfaction is also low at 5.9%, indicating significant room for improvement.
However, the overwhelming sentiment points to a serious issue with pricing. With 31 negative opinions, many customers felt the prices were too high, calling it expensive fast food, a rip off, or even a scam. Terms like cost, bill, and pricing frequently appeared in complaints, suggesting that many find the overall experience not worth the money.

- value dealWhile I acknowledge the burger is superior to McDonald's with more customization options, McDonald's is conveniently located just 75 yards away in the same parking lot and offers a double cheeseburger, McNuggets, fries, and a drink for $6. 50 with their value deal. Consequently, I don't think I'll be returning to Five Guys, as I can't justify spending an additional $16 for a burger, soft drink, and fries between meetings.
Frequently criticized
- priceThe fries were really good, I thought. Probably won't go back though due to the price.
- pricesprices are a bit out of line with reality
- costCost is a bit overwhelming
- pricingWith that being said, I can no longer justify coming to this location or any Five Guys restaurant. This pricing for "good quality" ingredients is just way too much. For an individual to average $25-35 dollars for a burger, fry, and drink is just too much for a consumer to spend at what is essentially a fast food joint.
- valueBack to Boss Burger for half the price and twice as fast.
- $12 cheese burger12$ for a cheese burger?
- Price$12.56 for one hamburger
- Price per person35.00 for a burger shake and fries is ridiculous
- billI dropped $50+ just for 2 to eat
- expensive fast foodthis is expensive fast food
If youre looking for a budget-friendly meal, this might not be your best bet, as many find the prices quite steep for what you get. However, if you dont mind spending a bit more for a burger, you might still enjoy the food, just be prepared for the bill.
How are the prices at Five Guys?
You’re looking at roughly 23 per person – reported by 51 diners. That puts it in the $21–$30 category. For a Hamburger Restaurant, it’s comfortably mid-range: not a steal, but not bank-breaking either.
Looking at what folks actually spend, most diners are right in that 11 – 30 $ sweet spot, with a big chunk landing squarely in the $21–$30 range. So, prices are pretty consistent around that average.
This chart shows what people usually spend per person, using the 51 most recent reviews.
Heres how this restaurants value for money stacks up against similar spots in Seattle.
We think the pricing feels pretty fair for a Hamburger Restaurant, especially in Seattle. It offers a consistent mid-range experience without stretching your wallet too thin.

Disorganized Service, Overpriced Meal
My experience as the first of four customers was mixed. The grill guy was efficient, preparing my burger in about six minutes. However, it took an excessive twelve minutes for the other staff members, who seemed to be drifting around, to place already made fries in my bag and hand it over.
This disorganization suggests a lack of management. This is the second time I've encountered similar issues. For $60 for two burgers, one fry, and two shakes, the value is poor.
I'll be returning to Boss Burger, where I can get the same for half the price and twice as fast.

Favorite Burger Joint Under $20
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially when it comes to the food. The food was truly to die for. The service was also excellent; they gave us space as one should expect, which I appreciated.
The atmosphere was alright, though it could be improved with some more lively elements. Overall, it's my favorite burger joint and a great value, especially considering it's under $20.

Disappointing Fries, Good Shake
My experience at the restaurant was mixed. The restaurant was clean. My salted caramel shake was good, but $7.
99 for a small shake is a lot. I usually love the Five Guys fries; they are like my grandma used to make, fresh from potatoes. However, recently, the fries were terrible!
They were drenched in oil and overcooked, so they were crisp on the outside and nearly hollow on the inside. It was so disappointing!

Tasty Food, But Too Expensive
As a first-time visitor, I found the restaurant to be bright and clean, with a very nice cashier. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger and small fries, but experienced sticker shock at the $21. 28 price.
While the food was very tasty, the high price means I won't be back. It's too expensive for me.
