According to the latest Fast Food Survey by Zagat, the best burger in America comes from Virginia-based chain Five Guys.
I would have to completely agree based on my experience. [Link]

You got to try ‘angus steakhouse’ in picadilly london! Best steak burgers in the world! Imho!
Call me a fool but I still love Johnny Rocket’s after all these years………ok I can hear you ”fool!”
ahhh, YUM?
Well that’s because there are many five guys in most cities in the east cost. I bet shake shack would be the best burger if it was more popular in the east rather than just having it in NY and Miami
Oh sorry i thought people voted five guys for the best burger. My bad but still i love shake shack more:D
@Yousef: Shake Shack now opening in Washington D.C.
YES. five guys all the way lol. Great burgers, but DO NOT add jalapenos, they kept me hiccuping all through the meal. sucked. burger was still good though
I lived in Va for uni and I can say that five guys is definitely THE best burger I have ever tried! mmmmmmm!! def better than johnny rockets! (although that is pretty good…it doesnt compare!) five guys rocks!
Noone evere mentioned “The Counter”. Usually it is found in the west coast. Custom Built burgers, best ever!!
They are showing on their website now that it is going to open in Dubai and once they showed in their website that it is going to open in Khubar but now it is removed!
Someone plz bring it 🙂
If I had money I would have brought it already 🙂
I heard bunch of moroccans started 5 guys in DC.
FOR ALL THE HATERS OUT THERE — IN & OUT — ANIMAL STYLE
Five Guys is awesome!
Babble… Angus Steak house is a bigger offense than Johnny Rockets
5 guys is sorry to say tasteless and over rated, I had it in DC, the food is soggy the fries nothing to rave about, as for the coke tasted like detergent, I ate half the meal after waiting for 15 minutes in line and chucking 10 bucks for a lousy burger meal!
A hot off the grill made to order burger always tastes good. Five Guys wins because it’s a no frills honest to god burgers made with fresh ingredients. You could have better burgers at home but who has the time for it !
The burger looks gross. meh.
my kids daydream about them.
It is by far the best burger ive ever had. It doesnt have all that fancy stuff in it, its a plain burger with plain topping, all of which you get to choose. Neat place, I highly recommend it.
The only reason Five Guys won over In-N-Out (previous top spot) was because In-N-Out joints are only on the west coast.
From my experience (and friends) after trying both, In-N-Out is much much better, tastier and even cheaper. The buns and construction of the burger from Five Guys doesn’t match up. Although they definitely give you a ton of fries.
Also, I wish they’d open a Wendy’s and a Chipotle here 🙁
@Eliasoz: Wendys?! meh. but as for Chipotle, it’s NEEDED!!!!! mmmmm my god (Y)
oh and five guys isnt tht good! and it seriously looks sick!
I didn’t get to try Five guys when I was in Austin, TX last week but for HELLRAISER, I think the sogginess is their style(as you can see from the picture). There are alot of great family owned burger joints in the States that have big ass soggy burgers!
please Mark, stop your food posts in Ramadan
it’s killing me (>_<) “
have mercy :'(
I just googled Five Guys, clicked on images.. found the most delicious looking burgers and sent it to the entire Department.
thank you 😛
it looks disgusting .. no wonder the Survey was done by Zagat
Five Guys is amazing; i dont get why ppl r saying that IN-N-OUT burgers is better. I lived in the east coast and trust me five guys is so much better dont judge by the picture it tastes amazing 3ad ana ma2artha 3ala Five Guys!
it was easier to bring five guys than shake shack anyway ..
we were just talking about it the other day .. heard it’ll open in q8 too ?!
