The third restaurant to take over space in the former Don Pablo's is serving up burgers and fries. Five Guys opened its doors earlier this month.
The new location takes up part of the building that formerly housed Don Pablo’s, a Mexican restaurant. This year, &pizza, Cava and Five Guys built out their own restaurants in the large space.
Cava opened in August. &pizza opened earlier this summer.
Five Guys is based in Lorton, where it got its start in 1986. It offers a menu of burgers, fries, hot dogs, shakes and more. The first Five Guy opened in Arlington in the mid-1980s and has grown to more than 1,500 locations.
Five Guys opened a new restaurant on King Street in Old Town Alexandria in 2016, shuttering a smaller location in Old Town. Other area locations include Reagan National Airport, Quander Road near Belle Haven, Richmond Highway south of Groveton, Bailey's Crossroads, Annandale and Springfield.
