I ate here on 19 NOV and it was immaculate inside. Everything was clean. The Food was outstanding. These are HOT cheeseburgers coming off the grill and the french fries are overwhelmingly great! The two guys working had everything in order and in place. It's been like 5 yrs since I ate here due to working up in NOVA - and just went back. These guys had this place squared away.

Every few years I get five guys because someone tells me it’s awesome….but it never is. It’s like a $10+ burger with a scoop of their ugliest fries that the grease slowly eats a hole in the bag. The burger is ok but sloppy. I’m never impressed.

I got a BLT with cheese, but by the time I thought about taking a picture of it, I only had 3-4 bites left, lol. To some degree, that should tell you that it was good. Their bacon is a bit on the crispy side, so be prepared for that. I don’t usually like bacon that’s on the crispy side – despite that, I give the sandwich an 8 out of 10. I’d also say you should eat it while it’s fresh and not wait until later or warm it up (I did all of that, so that’s why I can offer that advice). We also ordered 2 large fries – regular and Cajun (Note: It doesn’t say Cajun on the pictured receipt because we forgot to say that at first, but about 3 minutes later, we asked for Cajun for one of the large fries, and they said no problem, we will do that for you). BOTH types of fries were REALLY good! My husband gives the Cajun fries an 8.5-9.5 out of 10, and our younger son and I give an 8 out of 10 for the regular fries. An important point to remember about the fries: you get a large cup with fries in it (please see the pictures), but then they put that cup into a paper bag, and add more fries to it! So that’s pretty cool for sure. 😊 My husband got a bacon cheeseburger (2 burger patties) with *extra* onions and everything on it except jalapenos. My younger son got what they call a little cheeseburger (1 burger patty) with only ketchup and lettuce (he’s a picky eater who watches his weight).
And like they say, you can eat free peanuts (they are IN their shells, so you must peel them) while waiting for your order. I feel like our order took around 6-8 minutes (although I didn’t time it exactly, it felt quicker than I was expecting), so that felt like a good thing for eating fresh-made food.
Also note that my pictures may not do justice to Five Guys. Sometimes pictures can’t really show you how good food is (and I truly promise you; I’m not just saying that). After eating food from here for the first time, my family and I agreed that we definitely want food from here AGAIN!!! The fries cooked in peanut oil are delectable (and still taste really good re-heated in an air fryer!!!); the BLT with cheese had a perfect amount of bacon; my husband really enjoyed his bacon cheeseburger (including when he re-heated some of it in the air fryer!!!), and our younger son said his little cheeseburger tasted really good no matter what he did to it (Note: He heated part of it up - one part in the air fryer and one part in the microwave!) So this first visit for all 4 of us was a success!! The pictures only show the 2 burgers and the 2 kinds of fries.
No, they don’t have a drive-through, but you can order online in advance, so you don’t have to wait as long for your food. Also, the place looks very clean, and has those Coca-Cola Freestyle machines where you can combine different flavors to make your own perfect drink. And there’s plenty of free parking. The Charlottesville VA location is supposed to be open from 11 am to 9 pm ET every day. They deliver from 11 am to 8:30 pm ET. Overall, I do definitely recommend this place. Just remember because the food is fresh cooked to order, it will likely taste best if you eat it there in the restaurant right after it’s cooked. But if you have an air fryer, then you can warm up the food and it will still taste pretty good. If you must use the microwave to warm up your leftovers, then it’s definitely not going to taste as good as it does fresh or warmed up in the air fryer.

The Five Guys Restaurant at Hollymeade is by far the cleanest eating establishment I’ve ever seen. Floors were immaculate and all counters were sparkling clean! Quite impressed at the level of clean they are maintaining. Super friendly and efficient staff, great food as always. Keep it up!

Great food. Serve was nice BUT the air-conditioning was broke today so the inside wall said it was 82 degrees inside. Customers and the workers were sweating. That's not a great first impression. Inside Store should have had a notice that air conditioner was down for repairs. Those employees should be commended for staying in that hotbox.

Good burger, plenty of fries. A little pricy. Need a gluten free bun option like others have.
