Five Guys has had a lot of hype even before it reached the NJ/NY area. A trusted friend let us in on a new location that opened up practically in our backyard, and whaddaya know, DJKung is one hundred percent hooked. His dad tried it, and he too, is just as hooked.

It is a bit discombobulating the first time you enter Five Guys, with all the shiny white and red tiles. You basically place your order, pay for it, and wait till they call your order out. The menu is very pared down, and basically involves burgers done three ways (regular, cheeseburger, and bacon cheeseburger), hot dogs and fries. And soda. The burgers are made to order, and the main attraction here is that you can customize your toppings.


You can help yourself to some roasted nuts while you wait. This is the only veg option besides the fries.



DJKung just could not stop saying how awesome it was, and that this was THE BEST BURGER he'd ever had. The fact that the meat patties are never frozen is probably a big factor in how great this burger was.



Another shot of the cheeseburger, this one with onions and lettuce.






DJKung's friend did not get his bacon slices, and they provided it no problemo.


I really should elicit more descriptives on why DJKung really hearts this place. He's been here a few times but never goes beyond saying that this was the best burger joint he'd ever been to. Although technically we need at least two votes to get on SUPERROTATION (the furs always vote yes, since they seem to always like what we like), we've decided to put it on the list at DJKung's request.
