    Dubai chocolate shake...drool
    Felicia S.

    After a so-so, meh, veggie burger, I had Shake Shack's Dubai chocolate shake, which made it all better... Do you like the inside of the cup containing your shake to be lined with a hard coating of chocolate? Do you like your chocolate dark and rich? Do you like a thick pile of what I think was toasted pistachio to cover the entire surface of your shake? If you answered yes to all of these, I think you're ready to try Shake Shack's Dubai chocolate shake .

    We took the kids to planet Playskool today and afterwards they wanted something to eat. We saw the mall had a shake shack and ventured over. The place was clean and the kiosks were easy to use. We waited less than 5 minutes for our meal to arrive at our table. We have shack shake near our home in Manhattan but this for some reason was extra delicious! The staff here are so welcoming kind and thoughtful. Honestly they made the experience great. We were asked if we wanted refills on our way out which I honestly didn't know shake shack offered.

    portobello burger

    Not what they used to be... When this location opened I was there once a week. Everything was great. I typically ordered the shack burger, cheese fries and their cookies and cream shake. I was also a big fan of the portobello veggie burger and BLT. However, things have changed and I have been to a few locations in the past 2 months. First, I am not sure what kind of oil they use for their fries - but the taste is off and you taste more oil than potato. Second, the portobello burger now has a brownish color cheese (versus a pale yellow) and was over fried. Third, their BLT sandwiches used to be on sourdough, but now on a bun and the bacon tasted off. Yesterday I got a key lime shake which was so-so and the veggie burger which cost $19 for 2 items! Also, they now use cold custard vs. hard ice cream for their shakes which makes a big difference in texture and flavor. Their shack burgers are still pretty good and they have the best lemonade, but their prices have also risen so I don't plan to go again. There are places like Seventh Street Burger where you can get an amazing burger for $6.50 and their fries are amazing. One more thing - don't get the Dubai chocolate shake - it costs $10 and the chocolate is supposed to slide/break off the sides of the cup into the drink but it doesn't.

    Double Smoke Shack burger... cheers to hoping this all goes to my booty :-)

    I have some weaknesses.... and one of them happens to be Shake Shack. I can't help it. Their burgers are just so damn good that I keep coming back for more. The Smoke Shack burger will never fail to hit the spot. Even their lemonades are on point. And with the way they keep coming up with new limited edition menu items? Wheewww chile. I tried their new black truffle parmesan fries and WOW........ So I'm upgrading my review to 5 stars. I'm gonna pretend that I have a money tree in my backyard so I can ignore their high fast food prices.

    My absolute favorite. If you're feeling a delicious burger and wanna splurge - shake shack is the place to do it. Perfectly crisped smash patties, fresh veggies piled high, cheesy goodness and some shack sauce. Also, I'm usually not a fan of crinkle fries but when they're perfectly crisp and crunchy like this dipped in some ketchup - yum! The restaurant is also so clean and well organized. The staff does a great job. It's so out of the way for me but so worth it whenever I do end up coming here.

    Chicken sandwich, cheese fries and chewy limeade drink

    The cashier Wellington was welcoming and friendly. I also enjoyed the atmosphere, it was very clean. I also liked the server that came back to us with condiments after delivering our order. Best experience ever!

    This was my first time at Shake Shack. Been there many times to drop kids off and pick them up but never for myself. What have I been waiting for?!? I had the chicken sandwich and it was delicious! Bread was soft and tasty. Chicken was moist and delicious. The toppings lettuce and tomatoes and onion. We're all very fresh. Just a nice sandwich. I'll be back!

    Cheeseburger

    Always a reliable burger. Cooked well. Bun is soft and fresh. Cheese is quality and tasty. Enjoyed it very much.

    Come for weekend lunch. Love the shake burger as always. Service is quick. Very spacious inside. Lots tables and seats. TVs on the wall for kids. Employees come out periodically to clean the tables.

    Went back after a while to get some lunch on a weekday. As usual neat and clean store. Was very convenient to order from the kiosk. Food was ready in about 10 minutes. Amazing tasty shake burgers. Crispy tender chicken pop corn. And got my new favorite yuzu lemonade. Happy to see this store maintaining its quality.

    K shack bbq burger

    barely any crispy sweet onions. was not worth it. also the freaking pomegranate aid had sm ice in it.

    Takeout
    Jeannette L.

    This afternoon I ordered takeout at Shake Shack to bring back to the office for lunch. I've been to locations in the city, but this was my first Jersey Shake Shack experience. I drove over to the location on Route 17. There were parking spots upfront, but more in the back of the lot. If you enter from the back of the lot, you'll be closer to where you order. This was an impromptu decision and I didn't order ahead, so I placed my order using one of the three self-service kiosks. I entered my phone number so I could be texted when my order was ready, and emailed myself my receipt. Super easy. The food came out in about 10 minutes. It kept by the time I got to my desk, and was just as Shake Shack scrumptious/tasty. I would come back again the next time I want to $plurge on a burger and frie$ lunch. Oh, this is what I ordered: - single burger - fries - chicken bites - fifty/fifty drink

 Cheese Fries w/ Bacon
 Burger
 Hot Ones x Shack Sauce

    Over the past few years it seems like Shake Shack has aggressively expanded. From my experience they consistently serve above average fast food; I don't think I've ever been disappointed by the food during a visit to Shake Shack. I believe this location was the first to open in the North Jersey area and when it did the lines were CRAZY. Eventually they opened another location at Garden State Plaza down further south down Route 17 and of course that one gets a lot busier. However, given the headache that is finding parking at GSP, I will go to this Route 17 South location unless I'm already at GSP for something else. Unfortunately, I've noticed the service at this location is a step below the one at GSP. Normally I don't really care about friendliness and all that when it comes to food, that's just a bonus. But a handful of times my order has been messed up which is annoying to say the least. Nothing major, but it sucks to have to wait again for it to be fixed. I haven't had this experience at GSP and I've been to both locations about an equal number of times. My latest trip to Shake Shack was to try the limited time Hot Ones menu items. As a fan of both Shake Shack and Hot Ones I knew these would be a must-try. The highlight of it all was of course the Hot Ones x Shack Sauce. At first I didn't think it was very spicy at all; maybe akin to Sriracha. But as I proceeded through my meal the heat built up and I liked that. It wasn't spicy to the point of tears and pain, but I could definitely feel the sweat building up at my brow. Definitely tasty and it went well with all the items. The chicken sandwich had a generous breast that was breaded/seasoned well and also cooked very well. It was still moist and juicy. I wish the Monterey jack cheese on top was melted a little more but it still played well with the sauce. The bacon on top still had a little chew, just how I liked it. I think I enjoyed the burger the most out of everything. It was a typical Shake Shack patty cooked perfectly. I think the extra greasiness of the burger in comparison to the chicken allowed it to cut the heat of the sauce a little. I really enjoyed that pairing. The cheese fries were awesome. I love cheese fries and I love spice, so spicy cheese fries are right up my alley. Topped with bacon? Perfection. I might have to make a return visit to Shake Shack to try the Hot Ones menu again. I heard you can get a packet of The Last Dab Apollo if you dare to brave that heat. Whether that'll be here or at GSP I'm not sure.

    How'd They Do!

    The burgers are good. Thin like In N Out but without the sauce. I would go back and eat again. They have gluten free burger buns!

    Van Dyk's Ice Cream - Ice cream menu (June 2026)

    Van Dyk's Ice Cream

    4.1(322 reviews)

    Van Dyk's is one of those classic summer traditions for my family. We usually make a few trips here…read moreevery summer, and it's easy to see why people keep coming back. Their homemade ice cream is delicious, and they offer a huge variety of flavors. We stopped by on a Friday afternoon and lucked out--it wasn't crowded yet. If you've ever been here during peak summer hours, you know that's a rarity. This place is a local favorite, and long lines are pretty common later in the day. I was really hoping to get my favorite, Bailey's Cream, but they were sold out. That's one thing to keep in mind: while they have a ton of flavors, they aren't always all available. I ended up ordering the Black Raspberry Chip with free rainbow sprinkles (my go-to), and it definitely hit the spot. Someone in our group got a milkshake and absolutely loved it, while another ordered the Cappuccino Oreo and enjoyed it as well. Portion sizes: A single scoop (their small) is surprisingly large. With prices having increased over the years, I'd love to see a smaller, more affordable option for those times when I just want a little ice cream. I also wish they'd let you choose two flavors in a small cup instead of requiring a double scoop (medium) if you want to mix flavors. A few things to know before you go: Van Dyk's is cash only, although they do have an ATM inside if you need it. The shop itself is very small, with no indoor seating or restrooms. There are only a few places to sit outside, so most people end up standing around or grabbing a spot on the small wall. Parking can also be a bit of a headache. The lot gets hectic, especially when they're busy, and better signage would definitely help. We've found it's often easier to park on a nearby side street and walk over. Even when the line is long, the staff does a great job keeping things moving. One employee usually takes care of an entire group from start to finish, which helps keep the ordering process efficient. Everyone we've interacted with has always been friendly and helpful. Even with the cash-only policy, limited seating, and hectic parking, Van Dyk's is still one of our family's favorite summer traditions. The homemade ice cream keeps us coming back year after year, and hopefully next time they'll have my favorite ice cream, Bailey's Cream, in stock.
