    I got the single burger, it was amazing. The meat was great, but so was the produce. Nice crunchy lettuce. Also, good service and a very clean bathroom.

    Divey little place but the food was good. Tables and chairs were sticky. Not a lot of seating but did see a lot of take out orders. Weird huge bean bag. Interesting.

    Munchie platter
    Stephanie D.

    Just had a great meal at fat shack. It's basically bar food but it's done well. I ordered a munchy platter that had onion rings, chicken tenders, and mozzarella sticks and fried macaroni and cheese balls. I personally judge all fried macaroni and cheese balls against what you get at the cheesecake factory and these are just as good at a fraction of the price. They serve them with marinara sauce. It was really good. Their ranch is good. The service is great. The vibe is kind of a more rock 'n' roll Wingstop vibe but if you're hungry and it's late in Denton, I highly recommend Going to fat shack for munchies. Experience was 10 out of 10.

    Cannot believe I paid $12 for this. They robbed me fr and they charged 65¢ for hidden valley ranch. BIG AND GREEDY. Staff was chill tho

    The menu got my attention with the catchy names. However, the sandwich was just too much. I know there is supposed to be alot of ingredients but fries, cheese sticks, and poppers just too much. Flavors get lost in the mix. Mac and cheese bites tasted like they were out of a frozen box. If you are hungry you will get full. But not very satisfying.

    Great view too

    I'm gonna be honest, coming here I wasn't expecting too much. That was until I pulled up and placed my order. Just walking in was enough for me to know I found a favorite. I was originally getting a sandwich to-go, but when I actually looked around the back (which includes a giant beanbag), I kinda just felt like sitting down. I'm glad I did, because I've just been sitting here eating a Fat Gorbie and watching a mix of anime and hells kitchen for the past 30 minutes. This place is chill. It's weird to see other reviewers call the people working here waitstaff and service. These guys are dope af.

    Cheeseburger

    I've tried Fat Shack a few times, and I'm starting to realize it's just not my kind of place. When they first opened up, it seemed like a dream to me, somewhere I could get fried Oreos at the drop of the hat. However, after a view visits, I'm less enthused. On my first visit I ordered one of the sandwiches that had a million ingredients. I remember it not tasting like much even with a slew of sauces and such. They were also out of batter this visit, so I couldn't partake in my beloved Oreos. Some time passed by, and I decided to have it delivered through DoorDash. I've heard some really great things about the hamburgers, so I opted with a basic cheeseburger. I also decided to get a couple jalapeño cheese poppers- something that can either be really good or just watery and gross. I also ordered some fried Oreos, and got a call about five minutes later that they were out of batter and couldn't fulfill that part of my order (grrrr) It didn't take long at all to get to me, so everything was still piping hot when it arrived. The burger looked very clean, and not sloppy at all like some of the sandwiches. It had some good flavor, but the texture of the patty just wasn't right. It was just gritty and gross, almost like a school hamburger. I'm guessing they just use frozen patties. The jalapeño poppers were also just terribly watery inside, which was very disappointing. I intend to come back in the future to finally obtain the Oreos, and maybe find a sandwich I like. Just a couple of things to note: this is a very sketchy parking lot at night. I've seen people going around cars trying to see if some one left the door unlocked, and have been accosted for some spare change every visit. I would not recommend coming at night. They used to have in house delivery, until the very early hours of the morning, but they have since switched to using doordash and no longer have any of their own delivery drivers. Lastly, both visits I was here they were playing some pretty "interesting" music, complete with quite a bit of profanity. It seems to just be the employees music, but it's so loud it's hard to miss. Just a heads up if your planning on bringing young kids.

    Uncooked

    Ordered to have delivered via ubereats for dinner. I got a burger, single with cheese, bacon and jalapeños and the boyfriend got the fat shack sandwich (cheesesteak, chicken fingers, jalapeño poppers, mozzarella sticks, french fries, onion rings on a hoagie roll & ranch on the side.) We also ordered extra ranch and a cherry coke. Where do I start...well the burger had no jalapeños and added mustard to it as well as some kind of other sauce, maybe ketchup or BBQ sauce?? So we switched meals. When he got to the middle it was uncooked. The fat shack sandwhich wasn't completely horrible. He didn't like it but I feel like the combo was alright when dipped in ranch. Also extra ranch we paid for was not in the bag. Also put extra napkins in the notes and not a single one. Sad the fat shack sandwich wasn't better :/ really wanted this place to be as awesome as everything on the menu sounds.

My partner in food wanted to try the King Kong against my better judgment. Looking at the photos, it didn't appear conceivable - to make matters worse, he wanted it to go! It came deconstructed. Four HUMONGOUS beef patties and probably a whole pound of bacon and beautifully melted cheddar. The bun was questionable, mostly because it was nowhere near enough bread for all that meat, but I get it, in a challenge situation, I wouldn't want to load up on bread. The patties were well seasoned and firm. I would have preferred medium, but since I was sharing, well done was fine. Not over done and still juicy. It also came with a container full of steak fries! I admittedly put a hurting in the fries, dipping them in the house ranch mixed with the jalapeño ranch. I wanted the fries to be crispier and the ranch to be thicker, but they were delicious nonetheless!! So how much of it did we finish?? I finished one patty with out bread!! My partner finished one and a half patties with sandwich bread. The bun got designated to my leftover patty. Tomorrow's lunch will be a single patty burger with half a pound of bacon!

    Burger Time Machine in Denton definitely feels like a local college dive burger spot. With the…read morevintage movie posters on the walls, college kids writing formulas on the walls, an arcade, pool table, and picnic-table-style seating, it has a fun after-school hangout vibe. For lunch, I ordered the #9 Love Affair burger combo with sweet potato fries and added a side of onion rings. The sweet potato fries came in a good portion, which I appreciated. The onion rings, though, were $3.99 for only 6 rings, and that did not feel like a good value. The burger patty itself was the perfect thickness and cooked well, but it had almost no flavor on its own. The only real flavor came from the add-ons I chose, which were egg and pineapple jam. Because of that, the overall flavor just did not match the $22 price tag for lunch. Cool local vibe, decent presentation, but for the price, I expected a lot more flavor.

    This is going to be a bit long so please sit with me…read more When I was a graduate student at UNT I loved going on hiking adventures in the city. One day I decided to walk from my apartment on Bonnie Brae and Prairie all the way over to TWU, it was a lovely spring day I wanted to get the steps in. Upon walking into Burger Time Machine you are hit with the smell of delicious. If you don't know what that smell is you need to go to Burger Time Machine. On my first visit I had the Star Trek and I was hooked. During the remainder of my time at UNT I ate at Burger Time Machine once a week and have eaten every single burger on the menu. While I was in school it got to the point where the staff on Fridays knew me and I loved it. It was a very great mission I took on to eat every single burger but with a 6 mile round trip from my apartment to Burger Time Machine I felt like eating their was alright. I had to move for a job and then went back with my partner and she also says we need to go visit Denton so we can do Jazz Fest and other great Denton things, but we both know it's to eat at Burger Time Machine. If you're getting kind of fast food burgers / fast casual burgers / etc. at any other restaurant in Denton, you are doing a disservice to yourself. You should eat there and be happy that you live in Denton Texas and that you're able to eat at Burger Time Machine.

    Rodeo Goat? You're probably thinking the same thing.... Why? And what in the world does it…read morespecialize in? Well- much to my chagrin... I was completely wrong. Maybe a Mediterranean style cuisine with shaved goat drizzled in tzatziki sauce with a Texan flair. I was wrong... but try gourmet burgers on for size. Burgers! Might I add- juicy, freshly made patties, and mighty tasty burgers! Man o man I loved the ambiance in a Friday evening. Came here with my son, who lives just across the parking lot at some urban apartments, and he was giving me his resounding endorsement so off we went. So glad I did! We both ordered the Bodacious Burger, layered in American cheese, bacon, heaping mounds of crispy onion, some grilled jalapeños, pickles, but I chose no BBQ sauce. Damn these burgers are thick thick thick and you can taste the homemade freshness with every bite. No frozen patties premade here. We ordered a single of hand punched fries dusted in parsley, salt, and Pepper. But, our waitress said it was enough for two, and she was spot on! Golden crispy fries were delish! I ordered their Old Buffagoat made with Buffalo Trace while my boy had a Vanilla Porter. All in all, great location, extremely friendly and immediate service, and more importantly, and no kidding- goatalicious with every bite!! As always, enjoy and Happy Eating!!
