5 Guys Burgers And Fries - Cerritos

It’s a straightforward place where you can get a burger, a hot dog, a drink, and fries. The menu is incredibly simple—no frills, no trans fats, although they do have peanuts available for customers to snack on. My mother-in-law took me there last Monday, and since I'm pregnant, I've indulged in burgers quite a bit lately! I hadn’t seen anything about this location, which opened near the Target parking lot, but my burger instincts are always on high alert. For those on the West Coast, Five Guys usually opens at 11 AM, so be sure to check out your local spot!

I noticed the sign for this new burger spot about a week before it opened, and I have to admit, I'm quite excited! A new burger place in town? I didn't see that coming. The decor brings to mind In-N-Out. Upon entering, the first thing you see is a selection of free peanuts to enjoy while you wait in line or for your meal. The menu features burgers, hot dogs, veggie sandwiches, grilled cheese, and fries. When you order, there is an impressive variety of toppings available for your burger, all of which are advertised as free. However, if you order a burger, fries, and drinks, the total can add up quickly. The burgers are definitely worth trying, and I really appreciated the overall vibe of the restaurant. I'm genuinely excited about the fact that a new burger community has opened up in Cerritos.

This restaurant serves only burgers cooked in peanut oil, and they don’t clearly advertise their allergy information. The prices are quite high, and while they claim to offer 25 different toppings, you can only choose cheese and bacon. Overall, it was a disappointing experience. The food could easily be made better at home. They also don’t provide any dipping sauces, like ranch, for the fries or burgers. When I finally received my meal after a 10-minute drive, it was cold and greasy. I ordered two double-patty burgers, a junior burger, and two orders of fries—one Cajun and one regular—for three people. Due to the peanut oil, only one person could eat fries. A lot of what I ordered was missing when I got home. They really need to improve their advertising.
