Note of caution from the voice of experience. If you try and find the website for this chain, type in fiveguys.com, rather than 5guys.com. If you choose the latter, you will get a surprise.

My husband and I agree, we would love to see a Sweet Tomatoes here.

Probably in time for the snowbird migration south. They will definitely bring business to that strip mall.

Now, if only they would set up within Spanish Springs or LSL.

One big mistake. You can't get there by golf cart. Should have opened on the other side of Rolling Acres Road.

Just a thought

Just curious...How close can you get by golf cart? How far would it be to park cart and walk. Would you need to take a car to get there?

It's the very first shop on the other side of rolling acres.

I do not live at TV...so I know not of what you say. Do you drive cart and walk or do you take a vehicle?

jdsl1998 07-25-2009 09:36 AM

hummmm.....
 
If you park your cart at Petco on the West side of Rolling Acres, then you can walk to the other (non-cart) East side of Rolling Acres and it will be the very first shop. Hope this helps.

Burgers very tasty, My wife had a little one I had the big one.
All the fixin's are free and the list was long.

The fries? can't figure out what all the raving was about as I thought there was nothing special about them other than the size of an order.
The large was enough for 2. The small was more than enough for one.
The peanuts were very bland and almost tasteless.
Price we feel was high. $4.49 little $4.99 large for the price I have had better.

Not on our list of places to eat when we finally get to the villages.:rant-rave:

again we are not villagers yet! we went to one in Carson, California last night it is about 30 minutes south of Los Angeles:thumbup:

I thought the hamburger was good. I wasn't impressed with the fries, either. I like mine crispy. McDonald's still have the best fries, as far as I'm concerned.
