I took the question to be more of "what is Five Guys like?" and less of "what is as good as Five Guys?"

no, it's a solid comparison. i'm just passionate enough about smashburger's deliciousness that i felt it's superiority needed to be stated.

I've never been to a Smashburger. There are some around here. Maybe I should check it out.

you really should. i usually get the classic smash with smash sauce, but the mushroom swiss is also awesome. and make sure to get smash fries, so good.

There's one in Austin but it's in the really far south part of town. I'll check it out if I'm down there, thanks for the recommendation Spoika.

i haven't had one, but you should also know that they use haagen dazs in their milkshakes, which is pretty awesome.

I hate how it's nearly impossible to get seated at Kuma's Corner without waiting for 2 hours. The burgers are good, but not worth wasting half your day for.
