    Jerk chicken sandwich
    Francine G.

    Craving shakes and burgers, Harlem Shake is the place to be. First come, first serve seating. We almost sat by the window, the seating was like an old school lunch counter but after approx ten minutes, we scored a table. Food is ordered and paid for the counter, then bought to table. We ordered the Jerk Chicken sandwich and an Impossible burger. We unable to share an order of fries because everything cooked in beef tallow so we order a small arugula salad with avocado. The chicken sandwich was crispy and flavorful, the pink slaw was crunchy and vibrant. The Impossible burgers also hit but adding the arugula and avocado to the sandwich made all the flavors pop. The pistachio shake was thick, creamy and went perfectly with the burgers. Beautiful decor and wonderful staff, next time I'll leave my boyfriend at home and order the onion rings.

    I tried Harlem Shake and I must say it's a great late night delivery option and they also have a few different drink choices. The burgers were definitely tasty and the Frozé was refreshing. Everything was packed well and they use extra covers on the drinks which I loved. My burger was pretty darn good. Definitely looking forward to visiting this location.

    Loaded fries. Jerk fries.  Curly fries

    Recently visited here before a Nets Game. I do try to switch up my order but I know what I love here. The Hot Mess is so good. It's a classic burger topped with pickled cherry pepper & bacon relish. I'm obsessed with the bacon relish. I wish they sold it separately too. I also ordered the Jerk fries and added the jerk aioli which I'm also obsessed with. I did try my friends jerk chicken sandwich. I didn't love it as much as the burger. But overall the hot mess is highly recommended. If jerk is too spicy for you, try the truffle fries. Staff is always nice. A good amount of seating. AND they have happy hour! Enjoy.

    I had tried some of the food from an eater event before so i came to try since i was watching a game nearby. The hot mess had 2 patties which i didnt know but it was really good. Mildly spicy. The fries were crispy on outside and soft on inside. How i prefer my fries. Fairly quick service. Cute retro vibes in there. The georgette was refreshing. Love 50/50 type drinks. Will be back to try their shakes next time!!

    Cheese Fries, Classic Fried Chicken Sandwich
    Amanda D.

    Stopped in for a bite before a Nets game eight the girls and had the best time! It's a pretty small space but it has this great cozy, locals vibes that I love. A great mix between young families and adults stopping in after work. We each ordered our own sandwhich, I went with the original chicken sandwich which was juicy and delicious, and for the table we ordered a bunch of different fries. My personal favorite were the curly fries, always the best choice imo! But the cheese fries were also a top contender, maybe a cheese curly fry to be a real winner? The jerk fries were so tasty but I think I am a little too white to appreciate the heat level because after a few I was reaching for my milk shake (went with the black & white that was perfection even in the cold!) more and more.

    I stopped by Harlem Shake in Park Slope and was seriously impressed. It was my first time trying their smashed burgers, and I'm hooked the option to choose different seasonings really lets the flavors shine. I'm always a burger fan, but add a little jerk sauce and I'm completely sold. The spot gives off old-school diner vibes, which makes the experience even more fun. It's totally family friendly as I always see people bringing their kids here afterschool for a bite. Since my first visit, I've been back three or four times and tried the crispy chicken sandwich and their specialty hot dogs both delicious. Don't skip the seasoned fries; they're the perfect side to any meal here. Harlem Shake has quickly become one of my Brooklyn go-to spots for burgers.

    Twp "Boys To The Yard" lunch specials
    German B.

    I love a good burger and shake and am so glad that Harlem Shake has an outpost in Park Slope! We stumbled upon it yesterday and were intrigued (I grew up in Harlem but well before they opened their first one there). The retro Art Deco vibe was immediate and transported you to an earlier, simpler time where you could take it easy and have a good time. You order at the counter (Steph took our order, and he's a pleasure to talk with) and then take a seat while they prepare your meal. The Boys To The Yard lunch special (just $16!) gets you a double cheeseburger (the patties are from Pat LaFrieda!) or buttermilk chicken sandwich with fries and a milkshake (a nod to song "my milkshake brings all the..." ). Oh, wow! The burger was smashed, crispy on the edges and so juicy with pickles and onions on a Martin's potato roll - pure heaven! The chicken sandwich, also on a potato roll, with coleslaw and hot honey was equally good. The fries were a perfect complement, and the shakes were so thick and creamy - awesome! This is elevated fast food, reasonably priced, made from great ingredients that taste fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch there and looked forward to coming back to enjoy the food, music and vibe there!

    Black and white milkshakes

    I love a burger joint that offers gluten-free buns. Their smash burgers are really well-made and don't feel too heavy. I only wish their fries were also gluten-free, but unfortunately it's in a shared fryer. The milkshakes are also very tasty. Given the portion sizes and the freshness of the food, it is reasonably priced. The customer service is also really great. They are always ready to tell you about the specials, allow you to use the bathroom, deliver you the food quickly. There's always ample amount of seating and they have a TV playing Cartoons and good music.

    Harlem Classic w/ Beef
    LaKayla L.

    I ordered this place for takeout because I heard they had good burgers and I'm glad I did. I had the Harlem Classic with beef burger and it was delicious and tasted homemade. Those beef patties were made with love and well seasoned. The bun was nice, soft, and buttery. I added onions and that was a nice touch. The curly fries were fresh and crunchy but the chipotle mayo was a little too spicy for me. Nonetheless, this still was a good side item. Lastly I had the salted caramel shake and added Oreos. The shake itself was nice and creamy, but I couldn't really taste the caramel. It tasted more like a cookies and cream shake with a hint of caramel. Definitely adding this place to my list

    Cookies and Cream Milk Shake
    Amy G.

    Such a fun, old school vibe, a mix of both nostalgia and retro, a definite ode to the culture of Harlem. I'm adding a half star to make it 4 1/2 's. My partner is a a big fan of milkshakes. There are so-so milk shakes and then there are the luscious milkshakes. He had the cookies and cream shake which was, rich, flavorful, frothy, a frozen perfection. My partner had a classic hot dog and we shared the fries. The fries were nice and crispy with, the skin on. I had the "Snoop Dog." An all beef hot dog topped with chili and cheese. I don't eat hot dogs very often but, this one was worth the splurge. A tribute to Harlem and old New York. The service was very friendly and courteous. Next time we will try the burgers. We will be back.

    Harlem Classic w/ Impossible
    Fawn G.

    I was all set to do the Hippy Harlem Shake and as u I started my rotation, the order arrived. Boy, my hips did an about face. Let's start at the top ( see my pics of what's delivered vs. what was shown on restaurant's website). I ordered the Harlem Impossible Burger, the website shows 2 patties and charges $13 ( huge appetite today, skipped lunch). What I got was what I expect from 7th Street Burger, a flat smashed burger. The cheese wasn't melted, a few onions and pickles in a soggy "brioche" bun. Sorry but a complete rip off. The only plus was the burger taste was good. My friend ordered the Classic Harlem Burger, another listless flat burger with same condiments as Impossible. The curly fries were stuck together and the "spicy " chipotle mayo was bland. Here's the worst part, we both paid extra for BBQ sauce and what was served was I have no idea what taste it was but not BBQ. I also ordered the 12 oz Black and White shake.. that tasted like pure chocolate. Please take lessons from Shake Shack on how to make a proper Black and White.. I'll leave it there. Needless to say, I will never shake rattle or roll into Harlem Shake. ** this review is delivery only

    Looks very retro and vintage and it's in the corner of Fifth Avenue of Park Slope. They have a location in Harlem and Park Slope. The Park Slope location has outdoor seating with a tent for shade and also a dog bowl for water in front of the restaurant. I ordered the Harlem Classic burger (beef patties with American cheese, onions, pickles, and special sauce) and Jerk Fries with Jerk Mayo for dine in. The burger came out looking very nice especially the bun is not wrinkly or messy. The beef is a thick cut and very juicy. Jerk fries on the other hand were kind of plain or bland. I couldn't taste the jerk seasoning and it lacked the spice. I should have opted for regular fries instead. Ambience is very casual and fun. Good for families and couples. Utensils and condiments are available on the counter so you don't need to ask the staff for ketchup or mustard or napkins. I couldn't finish my food and the staff was nice enough to give me boxes and a paper bag to pack it to go. Very friendly staff.

    I came here for the first time and ordered the classic smash burger. This was a solid smash. You are able to add a bunch of toppings for free as well as others that cost extra. The chili cheese fries were amazing. There was one employee that stood out to us. She gave great customer service and was very helpful. She was friendly at the door and continued to go out of her way to take care of us.

    Food was good but pricey. Many options for shakes which was great. This is a great quick date find in Park Slope.

However, I'm almost finished with my lunch and answer no thanks, only for the employee to say in a huff, "Well, next time you should buy something if you want to use our seating." While I understand that as your business, you have the right to do this, it really just comes off as rude and condescending, turning what would've been a nonexistent interaction into a negative one that has completely soured my attitude toward this establishment. Considering that this establishment had roughly a dozen tables and 24 seats with only 4 seats or so occupied when I was around and I wasn't interfering with business on a slow afternoon, there shouldn't have been a problem with simply letting bygones be bygones.
