We've visited this location at least seven times since it opened. Each time we've visited when Marlin has been working, the service is nothing short of exceptional! (Note: We stopped to ask his name because we wanted to make sure he got the recognition he deserves.) And if you ever wonder which employee is Marlin, look for the fellow who bears a resemblance to Morgan Freeman. Certainly a distinguished young man!
I'll focus on our most recent visit, we were fortunate to get in before the dinner rush. The burgers and fries were great as usual. What we noticed most, though, was Marlin's ability to move the employees around as the restaurant began to get busier. It appears he knows the areas where certain employees work best and they worked like a team.
The other thing we noted, was his attention to the customers themselves. He would assist those who hadn't been to a Five Guys before and provide them with more details on how the ordering should go. He expedited several orders by telling the staff what to begin preparing before the order was even completed.
To be honest, we visit this location over other places to eat not only for the good food, but great service. While I may have spelled his name incorrectly, it is with hope his management values and recognizes him as an asset to their company.
Lastly, the only draw back to visiting Five Guys, and not just this location but all, is the prices for the food. With just the two of us, it's not horrible, but I certainly couldn't see how a family could afford to dine there. It might be a bit steep and lacks affordability.
Both of us diners deal with employees as part of our jobs and know a good one when we see them!
Great job Marlin....see you soon!

Poor quality food, place has really gone down hill. Sad that the place known for their burgers is now a joke. Look at the size of this 9$ burger... get out of here!

Excellent burger with all the components nicely balanced, I think they even use thicker pieces of cheese to help. Their fries are the best, I love that the have malt vinegar available to use on them. They also have the coca cola freestyle machines so I can enjoy a diet vanilla coke.

The fries are decent. The staff was good. Overall the price for a burger (2 patties) was $8.39. It was ok, but Wal-Mart has the same caliber burgers 6-$6.50. Unfortunately there's not a decent burger on that stretch of rt 50. So this might be your best bet if you're jonesing for a quick good burger and have money to throw away. It'll never compare to "Burgers and Beer"!

Came here on a Wednesday at 1pm. Only 2 people in line, so my order was taken quickly. I ordered a double cheese, small fry without salt, and a drink. I got my drink and went to wash my hands after paying...4 minutes after that my food was in my hands. Hot, fresh, correct, and tasted great. I travel regularly for work, so I've been to quite a few different Five Guys locations in the Midwest...and if you come here because you've had it before, you won't be disappointed. Thanks, guys!
