The atmosphere was nice, not overwhelming. Meatheads was very clean, and the service was good, although the amount of people on staff was (I'm sure) inflated a bit because of how new this place was.\n\nAs far as burger places goes, this place was good, but not great. I like the variety of extra toppings to add to the burger (eggs, avocado, bacon, etc.), but getting that stuff caused the burger price to go up by ~1 dollar each. I like that they have the Coke Freestyle, even though I don't drink soda. And, most importantly, I was happy to see they offered milkshakes, which, I think, is Five Guys biggest failure.\n\nHowever, for the $4 dollar price, my milkshake was slightly sub par. Don't get me wrong, it was good. It just didn't quite have the texture and flavor that I was expecting. It was more like a McDonald's milkshake than a small town diner milkshake, which is what I was expecting for the price.\n\nThe other disappointment was the fries. Five Guys has fantastic fries, that are cut well and just contain so much flavor. Meatheads' fries just weren't as hearty as I thought they were going to be, and weren't a necessary side with the burger. They sufficed, though.\n\nThe good things were that Meatheads offered both cajun and regular fry flavors, which I am a big fan of. Also, even though it cost extra money, getting an egg on my burger definitely added something a little extra. And, the burger buns were much less soggy than Five Guys' always are, which is a huge bonus.\n\nOverall, I would recommend this place to a friend, but I would give them fair warning that if they're looking for a Five Guys replacement, this place will not quite live up to that. Still, a good restaurant and, I'd say, it should be kept high on the list for people looking for good burger in the C-U area.
