Freshest "fast food" in Hampstead! Love this place! Always the freshest ingredients and you can customize any of the dishes! My go-to is the paradise taco! If you're like me and only need one ( because they give you a nice helping of homemade chips and salsa), they can make you and only charge you for one!! Highly, highly recommend!! read more

My favorite is the fried cod and the steak with the pineapple slaw and avo creama. You cannot go wrong with anything your order here .. it is all good!!

Dinner plans changed and Burrito Shak was recommended to grab a burrito. Employees were all very friendly, everything was clean, and the food was fresh/delicious! I loved the chicken aloha burrito, with some added fresh jalapeños. The chips and various salsas were such a treat! I loved trying all of them. I can't wait to come back when I visit family again in a few months. YUM read more

Stopped in for lunch with my family after reading great reviews. So glad we did! As others have said, everything tasted fresh and delicious. The carne asada was the best I've had (aside from my husband's recipe) and I've had a lot. It was super tender and flavorful. I had the Jolly Roger tacos. The slaw was crunchy and tasty. My daughter had the kid's burrito and it was so big that she couldn't finish - and she has a big appetite. Don't miss the salsa bar and especially the peach salsa. read more

I was hesitant at first but going on the trust of my fellow Yelpers reviews I decided to give Burrito Shak a try - Yelpers came through, again. A classic walk up and order style restaurant with a multitude of options and then grab a seat and wait for your order. I ordered the fish tacos (my go-to whenever and wherever they are available) and chips and salsa. These tacos were amazing. Busting with flavor and cooked to perfection. I loved the aioli and slaw they put on the taco. Everything tasted amazing. The sitting area needed a little attention. Most of the tables needed to be wiped down and even the ones that were looked to be done quickly and carelessly. read more

I have become addicting to this locations chicken nachos. The location is right in a strip mall in Hampstead and is normally not too busy. I have gotten items to go and ate in their restaurant, and read a book, which I feel shows that it does not get too loud. They also have plenty of seating and it is fairly kid friendly. I have had their burritos and bowls but for some reason, the nachos just hit the spot. Their prices are similar to those of competing restaurants and they layer a lot of food on their entrees. I do really like their queso and their guacamole that they have also, especially compared to some of the other joints in town. read more

The Hampstead location is AMAZZZZZING, we live in the Surf City area but rather than going to the Surf City location we prefer the FULL FLAVORED AUTHENTICITY that is ALWAYS consistent at the Hampstead location! With a franchise, sometimes the new owners choose not to follow recipes 100%. If you have tried the Surf City location or another BShak and were left unsatisfied then you need to give the Hampstead location (original store) a try!!! Absolutely amazing, I could eat there everyday!!!!!! If franchise locations like Surf City and Carolina Beach are lacking in flavor & taste it (both are blannnnd), it can profoundly effect the fabulous reputation of the original location. Hope these two stores use the dictated recipes moving forward! Consistency is KEY!!! Especially when the original location pours everything into a phenomenal food experience! read more

It's kind of like a Chipotle knock-off, but with lower quality ingredients. I hope they turn it around and become successful in Hampstead. Update: Family and I decided to try this place again. A much more pleasurable experience. Everything was much better. Customer service, employee skill, and cleanliness were all great. The food was improved as a result of a better trained staff.

Their tofu tacos with their tropical slaw were MINDBLOWING!!! Soooooo good. Felt like I was eating fish tacos, which used to be my favorite food so it was really special to get to have something that tasted just like it but was cruelty free. The atmosphere is fun and tropical and their chips and salsa bar has some of the best salsa I've ever had. DO NOT MISS THIS PLACE. My only wish is that they were closer to the actual beach but hopefully one day they get to build a fun beachside location! read more

This place has its ebbs and flows. Sometimes it's fantastic, other times it's questionable. Staff is the same way, but most of the time to me not the friendliest. They often show frustration that you're ordering to go for a family of 4 by yourself. That has to be done because more than once, once they added online ordering back, they've screwed up the order. Pricing is similar to competition. Like the convenience of location. Overall not terrible, but not like it used to be when they first came on the scene. read more

We chose this awesome place based on their Yelp rating while we were in town doing some…read morehouse-hunting. What a delight! I had a steak taco which was fresh, fresh and fresh! Tender marinated beef, cilantro, avocado, with lime on the side. Minor quibble - a bit more generosity with the cojita cheese would have taken this over the top. As seen on my pics, the amount of cheese much have been about 1/4 tablespoon and were the size a fresh ground pepper. Chips were thin and crunchy with a homemade salsa. Service was fantastic - the bar guy who subbed as a server spent time talking through the food options despite my annoying questions. Follow up was perfect. My husband had the chicken tacos with rice and gave it double thumbs up. One more thought - clean and fill your hot sauce bottles! As seen on my pics, they were both empty or close to empty.

We visit the Porters Neck K38 often. Love the food & always great service!!…read more My ONLY issue as a regular here for over 3 years is the cleanliness. The tables are fine & plates/utensils are always clean. It's the general inside that is just getting kinda gross. I never want to sit near a wall, the food splatter & misc 'unidentifiable stuff' on walls near tables is ICK. Light fixtures & such look like they have caked-on dust that's never been cleaned. Its also a bit dark & with the lack of cleanliness it's beginning to make me wonder what the kitchen is like???? I mean, we never see that part..... It just needs an interior OVERHAUL! Please! We love this place!!
