I ordered the Bourbon Steaktips Tortellini -- tender bourbon-marinated steak tips served over cheese tortellini in a rich truffle cream sauce with spinach and red peppers, topped with shaved parmesan and toasted garlic bread. Everything was cooked perfectly. The steak tips were incredibly tender, and the bourbon flavor paired surprisingly well with the creamy sauce and perfectly al dente tortellini. Service was excellent from start to finish, and our waitress was attentive and friendly all night. They also have a very solid beer list -- seeing Maine Beer Co. Peepers on tap was a nice bonus. Overall, a really great find and definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

Burgers are solid and offered with a variety of toppings and the fries are a very worthy accompaniment.

Super close to Roadrunner and the track at New Balance. I also had a few fries and a vanilla frappe. They were OK but the burger was the clear cut winner. Lost points: the decor is becoming haggard. Wood circles falling off the counter wall, paint chipped off the walls and some gathered upholstery. Needs a little love. The cashier taking out order accommodated our need for some to go food and times it perfectly to be ready as we were leaving. We had some volleyball players awaiting their lunch. She coordinated it quite well and we appreciate that! True score: 3.75

You can shoot the works and drop a few hundi at The Stockyard ... or have Ellios-worthy flatbreads. This place offered a burger option, so I tried it. Right off the bat ... this was one of the blandest burgers I've ever had. No seasoning at all. The fries were also bland. Seriously, how hard is it to shake some seasoning onto what you are cooking to somewhat differentiate it from the paper it is wrapped in? The mushrooms were canned and watery. The swiss cheese was barely present and almost liquified ... not gooey and stringy, like I had hoped. The burger was an absolute fucking mess to eat. It was a sloppy, drippy falling apart mess. The burger was literally in pieces, likely due to some grill mishapp. It's a smash burger style but this looks like after the smashing, a ninja then chopped it up. After taking away the blandness with ketchup, mustard and secret sauce housed in crusty communal squeeze bottles, I was wearing as much of the burger as I was swallowing. And after eating a burger and fries, I wasn't even experiencing that 'Shake Shack' level of satisfied. I could have eaten more. Judging by how few people were in here on a Saturday during a busy hockey tournament, I don't expect this place to last. It has a 5 guys kind of vibe inside at 25% higher prices and 50% less flavour. The restaurant also seemed kind of dirty and not clean. There were things laying everywhere behind the counter and the communal condiment bar looked like it hadn't been wiped down in days. Would I return? Nope. Flavorless burgers at premium prices in a restaurant whose concept I just don't really get just doesn't do it for me.

We like Shake Shack in…read moregeneral but honestly only visit when they have black truffle on the menu, so we had to stop by while doing some shopping in the area. Ordering was super easy-- we ordered through one of their tablet kiosks. After ordering, we grabbed one of their numbered placards and waited for our food to be ready. This day, we ordered: - Black truffle shroom burger - Black truffle shack burger - Black truffle fries Everything was great! I love mushrooms myself, so the black truffle shroom burger was right up my alley. I love that the portobello mushroom was filled with muenster & cheddar! The cheese pull was insane. It was my first time having the black truffle shack stack with mushroom & though I really enjoyed it, I'll admit it did end up tasting a bit too heavy for me towards the end since it does come with a quarter pound of beef patty, as well. I think next time, I will stick with the OG Black truffle burger or just the regular black truffle shroom burger (w/o the extra beef patty). The staff was very nice, as always. They also informed us that the black truffle menu is likely going to stick around until around January!
