“Great food, fast with polite staff. Clean location but the prices have gotten out of hand. $9.77 for a double hamburger and $4.77 for little fries is absolutely ridiculous. Add those price points, a five guys trip is now a special occasion! There should be some type of value menu where you don't have to downsize so much to get a filling offering for the $10 price plant that it used to be before taxes..“

I personally wasn't the biggest fan of the cheese fries (nothing wrong with them, just not my favorite but my partner did enjoyed them). Overall the food and environment was pretty good. 10/10“

I’ve given up with that location and now almost exclusively patronize the Sparkleberry/Two Notch store. Chik fil A corporate, you need to help those guys at South Two Notch and I-20,they’ve botched every single order we’ve made there. How hard is it to make sure that they include large waffle fries with the order?“

A kid in braces served me and I appreciated his attention to detail! He didn't overload the lettuce and made sure I had a very good amount of oil and vineger!He took his time and appeared to be new but I appreciate when people pay attention to details and do it right. We have a problem with people being impatient and wanting stuff so quickly that even if it isn't done correct they eat it anyways, or complain because it wasn't correct AND fast.So thank you kid in braces. ?
