Five Guys is really blowing up right now. I'd like to see the figures on exactly how fast they're growing, but I see new Five Guys chains popping up everywhere and they seem to be extremely popular.

I used to live in DC and miss it so much. It's a family owned business (last time I checked) and when the founders' kids were about to graduate from high school he gave them the choice: start Five Guys or go to college.

From the looks of it, they made the right decision.

Great fries and the best thin-style burgers in the world.

However, if you're looking for the best thick-burgers in the world, you have to live in Atlanta and patronize the Vortex.

Too inconsistent... the DC area ones are great but the burgers are always a little dried out at my local one.
