Five Guys or SmashBurger

[fanaticrockford]

I have eaten at Five Guys probably 20 times. The food (dbl bacon cheeseburger) is always good and the staff is very friendly.

I decided to try SmashBurger tonight. The lady that took our order wasn't friendly at all. The BBQ bacon cheese burger I had was just alright and tasted just like a Culvers BBQ bacon cheddar burger with the exception of the egg bun. The IBC root beer float I had was good though.
I'll give SmashBurger another chance at satisfying me.

Just seeing what other opinions on the two are.

Me and my roommate stopped by a few weeks back, line was out the door so ended up going to Five Guys, I'm sure I'll end up trying it some time after its settled down a bit.

Burger Time kicks the shit out of alof them. Of those two, smash burger stomps five guys. Five guys is yuppieville

[STiSchucky]

havent had a smash burger, went when it opened but the line was to the door and it wasnt moving so we went to 5 guys instead.. ...but enjoyed 5 guys everytime ive gone there.

not a fan of the prices tho.

SmashBurger is more expensive then Five Guys. My 1/2 burger and float was $11.75

I had smashburger in the cities and it was good, but a bit pricey for a burger...

Smashburger vs. Sonic?

[Rexwagon]

sonics burgers suck. end that conversation

Best Burger Ever is the shit!

[DrifterExtreme]

To be honest i didn't think a burger fries and a drink for under $10 was bad at all. I enjoyed both 5 guys and smash burger. I personally liek 5 guys' fries better but all around there both good.

[RidinRails]

it would be better to compare HI-HO to 5 guys ....hi-ho is good but i'd prefer 5 guys out of almost everyplace in town. burgertime is probably my second favorite. I'll have to try smashburger soon though.

JL Beers all day err day.

[STiSchucky]

i havent tried jl beers. i hear great reviews about the place but that it also only fits like 10 people.

[Rexwagon]

Jl beers ftw

[DelSlow]

JL beers rocks if you want to eat a 'meh' burger with seven people hovering around you waiting for you to finish and if you love 7 dollar bottles of beer...

I dig JL's 1st ave burger and have heard great things about the one with egg on it.
But yeah, place seats 26 and is usually packed for at least a couple hours over lunch.
Get there around 11:15 or closer to 2 and its not bad.
Fortunately it's a half block from work and they do to-go.

Iv had smashburger before and it was alright, nothing I would write home about though. I'm more of a fan of fat burger.

and for some reason they're new location in west fargo is tiny too.....you'd think if your going to build a bar you'd build it to fit atleast 100 people.

The owners must be retarded.
