i actually work at the one that just opened in Covington. it's a great place, and i'm not just saying that because i work there. i've been a fan of their food for years since i first had it in florida. the beef is 100% and is not frozen like most fast food places. there is no freezer at any five guys location, everything is made fresh. the fries are hand cut every day, throughout the day. we will go through 100 lbs of potatoes in under 10 minutes. it's not fast food though, and that's a common misconception and people get mad when their orders take longer than 3 or 4 minutes to have ready. our goal ticket time is no longer than 7 minutes to have your fresh burger and fries ready. average ticket time is usually between 4 and 5 minutes. the owners are opening a new location off lsu's campus first, then shortly after opening a location across from lakeside mall in metairie and then the lake charles location will be open. and then within the next 10 years, they'll have another 10 locations opening in smaller suburbs in louisiana. but i promise you, the food is good, i'm actually eating a double cheeseburger with bbq sauce and ketchup as i'm typing this.

I thought his post was better than the typical

"it sucks"

"best burger ever"

"who needs another chain"

or

"go study instead"

Don't start with me ATL. I'm drinking red instead of Chardonnay. Therefore I'm cranky.

Do y'all have franchise rights for the entire state or just an area?

Has it already been mentioned that the old Blockbuster at Northgates of LSU is going to be Five Guys?

Reliable source told me today.
