The concept behind Five Guys takes fast food to a new level. I call it \"Premium Fast Food\". After all, plan on paying about a 40% premium over the scarf and barf places that are on every corner. But there is a reason to pay more. Five Guys is labor-intensive. They employ actual people who are friendly, fun, dedicated and efficient. Where the Arcadia store finds these people is a mystery but I'm glad they do. \n\nThe menu is very simple. They sell burgers with one veggie and one cheese sandwich option and a hot dog. That's the menu. When they say \"Burgers and Fries\", they mean it. Instead of a smashed mess with a quarter-inch thick piece of mystery meat in it, Five Guys delivers quality meat, hand formed patties, hand assembled while you watch and a real human touch with others lack. But I can eat and enjoy a Bacon Cheeseburger there and be stuffed, not wondering what is going to get me through the rest of the day. It's darn tasty, too and worth the drive out of my way. \n\nAlso, if you want to delve into the health aspect, this is much healthier fast food in terms of fat, calories from fat, sodium, etc. The customer is in charge of what goes on the burger, too. Want to cut the sodium, order without the bacon. Simple choices. \n\nI also love the Coca-Cola machines which are self-serve. They offer a myriad of soft drinks you can't buy in stores like Lime Coke and Raspberry Coke. Mmmm.
