I first had 5 Guys in Virginia where peanut shells ran loose on the floor, the men behind the counter spoke Arabic with my Arabic speaking brother in law, and the fries came in a big brown bag
(not the Blomingdales kind).
I loved it.
And when I heard that 5 Guys came to Sacramento, I was real curious to see how the West would accept the East.
You see, food in suburbia is not quite like food you find in the city.
(understatement of the century).
How did we fare against our 3,000 mile away counterparts?
Pretty darn good.

I've been craving it ever since.
All toppings are free.
My recommendation would be the bacon cheeseburger with barbecue sauce and jalapenos.
Don't be off put by the American cheese.
I hate American cheese, but on 5 Guys it just fits.

My mouth is watering. I LOVE Five Guys! I certainly feel disgusting afterwards, but it's so good that it's definitely worth it.
wow-looks great. question-what is American cheese-like plastic, square slices?
this post has me drooling. seriously craving a big juicy burger now. yum yum!!
I'm on the East Coast so there is literally 3 Five Guys in a 20 mile radius from me...I've been a good girl resisting the one near my job but that day where you are just famished...it works every time!! =)
The burgers do nothing to tempt me. But the fries? Oh golly. I might have to run across the street and get myself some sweet potato ones today.
I think there is a 5 guys in Tempe, and I have been wanting to try it. That meal looks so good right now.
I've been dying to try this too...my mom tried it for the first time a few months ago and loved it!
now in and out needs to come here to the east! but yes 5 guys really is so good. now i might need to make a run for a burger!
p.s. oh and one of my fave things to get there is a side of their hot sauce and dip my fries in it. yum!
I was excited to try it not too long ago for the first time. I think my favorite is their cheese dogs. Yum!!!

Holy smokes! I'm so hungry! This sounds and looks divine.
oh man that was so fun! those incredible pictures make make want to eat it all over again!!!
They just put in a 5 Guys about a mile from our house, but there are no peanuts! Weird! Anyway, it's really good, and it's dangerously close to the new frozen yogurt shop. : )
YUM -- I didn't know 5 Guys was coming to Sacramento, I'll have to check it out!
I love jalapenos on burgers too. Actually, I love jalapenos on lots of things... :]
Dude I have been wanting to try this place...looks amazing. And now I've even more inspired to! :)
I've been meaning to try this for a couple years, just to see how it fares against In N Out. Not that I'm a die hard In N Out fan, but just that it's the closest thing to it that's here. Looks worth trying!
omg, this looks deliciousssss! Now i'm hungry! and no where in Germany will I find anything like this, LOL!
5 guys in one of our favs. :) i'll have to try the bacon/jalapeno combo! sounds amazing!
oh! and their Cajun fries? SO good.
You're making me so hungry! Do you know I've never had Five Guys and there are so many here? J loves it. Actually pretty much everyone I know loves it but I've never been. After reading this and seeing the mouth watering photos this will change in the very near future ;) xoxo
We have a 5 Guys here in KY, but I've never been! Shame on me! Also, I didn't know they served peanuts there...we just might have to go there this weekend. :)
OMG- I can't believe you posted on this- One JUST opened up down the street from us and my boys have been BEGGING to go- (they've been in Florida) and I JUST committed to taking them over the weekend-
We are from Alexandria, where the first five guys opened, so I have been going forever! It is always one of my first stops when we return to the East Coast. Glad Cali is enjoying the awesomeness too ;)
My mouth is WATERING for 5 Guys–I haven't had it since I left Baltimore years ago! Yet another reason to come visit you in Sacramento!
5 guys has really been popping up in CT and the fries are the best, yumm!
Looks really delish,
and that's quite a big bite you're taking in there ♥
I've never tried 5 guys but I'd like to try the fries!
Well, I'm pescatarian (vegetarian plus seafood/fish), so I don't know if they have anything for me. So I've never been! BUT I've heard amazing things about their food and fries. They seem like a fun place! I want to put peanut shells on the floor! ;)
WOW! Major heart attack! lol I had five guys once-it was pretty darn good, but I don't put that junk in my bod anymore, its just dead nutrition <3
Lately every single time I visit Dancing Branflakes I leave absolutely starving. This food looks so incredible, Tiffany! I love the way they serve the fries - reminds me of Nathan's in Coney Island! :)
I am cautious as for meats I eat ( whenever that happens, like once a year if that...) but you make me drool :)
what I want to know is - how do eat all this amazing food AND stay as gorgeously slim as you ARE?! I'm not sure I could pull that one...

Yum! Looks delicious!
I'm officially craving it and these images are AMAZING.
You know, we've had Five Guys here for a few years and I've never been there in spite of hearing great things about them all the time.
I guess I should give it a try!
My favorite burgers are the ones from the shake shack... YUM!!!!
i am eating a boca burger right now, but i would GLEEFULLY trade it in for a bacon cheeseburger!
must try this place sooner or later! must!
