FGs has been tariffing for a long time, so much so that we no longer go there.

Five Guys is a look into the future with all american jobs coming back.
If you can get past the red tape first, then the more things are made in the US, the more expensive they will be.

Sorry you had to pay the tariff on your food the Chinese already impose on us. What's good for the goose.

Exactly. I love paying higher prices. Who needs more disposable money anyway?

Just curious? What part of your meal do you think you will pay tariffs on? The soy sauce, duck sauce, rice? Give me a list.
It probably isn't the beef, pork, chicken, broccoli, corn, carrots, zucchini, flour, msg, bok choy, ??? As most of that is grown in USA.
Buy American and Tariffs don't affect you which is one reason to tariff foreign goods so that it evens the costs so more American companies can compete since we pay higher salaries. Likely in most cases we over pay some of the labor force especially since Covid for some stupid reason.

Maybe the parts of the restraunt machinery and building costs etc. The same will go for where the sauces come from. Food will be more expensive in that scenario.
