It's way over hyped. Especially the fries. Because people think they're getting a crapload and not the amount they payed for in a tiny container.
I walked into a five guys once cuz I was out of town and ask for a California burger, figuring someone who worked at a burger place would probably know what toppings I wanted. The cashier looked at me like I was stupid. So after explaining what toppings to put on, I got the most disappointing $20ish meal. Dry, flavorless, and way to much salt. I honestly would have been happier if I had just gone to a Burger King or McDonald's or Arby's.
I presume at one point it was actually a really good place to go but like any restaurant that lives long enough the quality tanked will the price is went up.
It was one of the best burgers I'd ever had back in the 2000's. Went back recently and it wasn't bad, but was nowhere near what it used to be, for way more money.
One bad experience does not make an entire national chain bad.
As with all restaurants, some are ran well and some are not.
