5 Guys Burgers and Fries - Hoboken has a McDonalds

Waay too many complaints about the unprofessional service, pricey/mediocre burgers, crummy fries. In fact the only positive review I heard was from Perry the Puppet on 411.

You must have a great product, a great price or great service. We cant meet a single one of these criteria so far. What a bummer. Lot's of people were excited about getting a 5 Guys, I've had at least 6 conversations with patrons who tell me they will not likely return after disappointing first visits. And at least half these people were previously fans of 5 guys in other locations.

(Nothing creepy about this freak, lets put some kids in his lap.)

2 adults with 2 young children can expect to drop $40 bucks on this mediocrity. Heck, you can do that lots of places with better product. Not fried on a griddle ala Mickey-Friggin D's. Where is the creepy ass clown?

Now, I would like to think they are just getting warmed up. maybe in a month the fries wont suck and the staff will not be reprimanded with F-Bombs in front of the customers. But I can tell you this......the buzz is not good. Not good at all, sober.

However- And this is a big However......

Lots of people are raving about how good it is when you're drunk. So 5 Guys should do a lot of business in this town. And I positively cannot wait to stumble over there after I slam a few bowls of loudmouth soup to see for myself.

I am here to question the taste of sober people.
