I was just in Biloxi, MS and for some dumb reason we ended up at a 5-Guys where I got a bacon double cheese burger, regular fries and drink and it was $15.
I had been talking with friends in line, not paid attention (for content), and did a "the same as him" deal, and I ended up with a $14 lunch.
As with the 5-Guys here in Lee's Summit it was terrible. The joint seems to pride themselves in burgers that are so greasy they you feel sick for the rest of the day, and while they give you more fries than you ever really wanted, they too are so greasy you can only eat a few so you toss 60-70% of them like I did (and 3-4 bites of the burger).
I never really complain about the price of food since you're making a choice to pay it before you buy it, but I'll say this 5-Guys is way overpriced for the food they serve. It'll be a long time before I go back optionally. THEY are a great argument for McDonald's or Burger King, at least at the latter two you have a dollar menu you can choose from to feel sick the rest of the day.
But in the end the whole experience was my fault because I walked in, I picked the meal (without reading the menu board and doing a little math), I paid for it, then ate some of the shit they brought to the counter - I had options and I should have stopped/left at any point before putting that crap in my mouth. I lost in almost every way you can...
