Burger was good. Quite tasty though kind of small. I had a single, husband had a double which was $8!!!! Fries were good. Shake was not so great and nearly caused a divorce. (Is it even real ice cream? I don't think so). I'd recommend skipping it. Pretty pricey. I think I'd prefer Five Guys just for the mountain of fries alone, but this is a nice treat. read more

It's difficult to add anything new to what's already been written, but I'll try. My first impression was: underwhelmed. It's just a burger, gang. And not an over-the-top, fantastic, memorable burger at that. The size of the burger and the bun were underwhelming. I wanted to set a half-dollar or some other coin beside my burger to show the actual size of the bun. I've had bigger burgers at Burger King. I swear that the bun wasn't much larger than what I would have received at White Castle. The burger was juicy, and tasted good. It had a fair amount of pink inside, which isn't my favorite, but after spending more than $7 for it, I was going to enjoy it, darn it. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger. I will say this. The bacon was done to perfection, nice and crispy, not the soggy, underdone bacon like what you find on most McDonald's breakfast sandwiches. The burger reminded me a lot of a Culver's hamburger. The white cheddar cheese was the best part. It was soft and melty, and quite creamy - absolutely delicious. The burger was fairly greasy, which the bun soaked up. The ordering and picking up process is a bit funky, as others have mentioned. Even if there are few, or no other, people there, they'll hand you a buzzer. Still, most people stand around the counter waiting for their food, rather than sitting down. They ask your name. When my burger was ready, my name was called, but my buzzer didn't go off. Perhaps they should just use one system - the buzzer or the name-calling, and ditch the other. I probably ended up waiting about five minutes for my burger. While I wish I could say that the service was pleasant and friendly, it really wasn't. There were no smiles, or thank you's. It didn't feel like the employees put much care or service into their work. It was merely a job they were doing. Here's your burger. The seating area is nice enough...kind of a casual trendy with tables made from reclaimed bowling alley wood. It's attractive. There's seating both inside the restaurant and in the mall itself. I saw one TV on the wall; there may have been more. Whether you're in the restaurant or outside of it, you'll have that ever-present ambient mall hum of noise and music. Several people have used the words "hype" or "over-hyped" to describe Shake Shack, and I'd have to agree wholeheartedly. I mean, we have so many burger choices - from casual chains like Burger Burger, Five Guys, Culver's, and Freddy's to the local places like The Nook and others, to fast food joints. This is just another burger, only it's more expensive and smaller than a lot of other burgers for the price. I came away disappointed. I expected something more. read more

Anyone who's a huge foodie has heard about the big hype with Shake Shack starting off as a food cart somewhere in NY and slowly expanding. But seriously, anything that started off as a food cart and got as big as Shake Shack currently is, you have to know it's because it's damn good. I first had Shake Shack when I was visiting Orlando, FL and impulsively decided to take a 50 minute drive through pouring, thrashing rain to try this place out. It did not disappoint. And now, it's here in Minnesota! No more driving to Chicago just to try this place. Now, on to the food. Anyone who knows anything about me knows that I am obsessed with mushrooms so in terms of burgers, I always go for the Shack Stack ($9.59). It's a typical burger except with a fried portabella mushroom jammed inside and they always use these "Caution: Hot" stickers because when you bite in, the mushroom oozes out a bunch of cheese. It's essentially a mushroom version of a Juicy Lucy... who could ask for anything better? But seriously, the burgers have so much taste. They're juicy and explosive with so much goodness and flavor. It's so delicious, it'll have you licking your fingers for whatever's left. Now, their fries also do not disappoint. They're crunchy, fresh, hot, and tasty. And oh my gosh, you must get the cheese fries ($3.99) if you love cheese as much as me. They drench the fries in their housemade cheese sauce which is similar to nacho cheese sauce and it is BOMB dot com. I have yet to try their shakes and/or ice cream, but it is next on my list. Overall, this place is just pretty great. It has a decently large seating area that has nice and comfortable tables and chairs. The staff are very friendly and keep everything neat and organized. It's themed well and overall, a wonderful food chain to check out. Definitely pricier than other fast food places, but I promise it won't disappoint! read more

Shake Shack Mall of America - 2 shack stacks, 1 cheese fries & 1 regular fries - Burgers Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

I've been wanting to try shake shack! I love a good burger and fries. I was impressed! It kind of reminded me of in n out because of the presentation. I ordered the smokeshack burger. The special sauce tasted similar to thousand island sauce/Big Mac sauce.. still yummy. The only thing I disliked was the price. It was $25 bucks for a two burgers, one fry, and a shake. Which is normal for the MOA but I thought it was a little expensive. read more

From New York to Minnesota, shake shack does not disappoint! The first time I ever tasted the shack stack was 2-3 years ago and it has become my go to burger place when I'm traveling to New York or Vegas or anywhere it is located.. don't even gotta ask me which one I like more (in-n-out or shake shack?) I feel like shake shack tops it! The shack stack is my favorite, it's also one of the fattiest burgers they have; topped with lettuce, tomato and a cheese stuffed portobello mushroom, the shack stack is pretty solid, plus the bun is really good -I got a thing for burger buns, it either makes or breaks a burger IMO and boy oh boy do they have good buns ;) Do I think it's a little frivolous spending $10 on a burger? Yes. Is the cheese stuffed portobello mushroom worth it? Yes. Minnesotans do yourself a favor and try this place out meow!! You'll love it! read more

The hype is real, and for good reason! Shake Shack delivers and I can't wait to stop back! The brand new, first to the area Shake Shack has landed in the Mall of America. Yes you will have to navigate to the north side of the third floor after parking a half mile away. What you will find is a brand new food court coined "Culinary on North". Its expansive and quite upscale even down to the bathrooms. Shake Shack sits opposite another trendy addition; Piada Italian Street Food. I stopped by on opening weekend 30 mins after opening(1130) to find a line already wrapping down the hallway. The line went quick and in under 10mins I was holding a pager awaiting my meat coma. Shake Shack offers only a short list of burgers, fries, chicken, and ice cream treats. It won't take you long to find a favorite from the simple pleasures they offer. Myself I went with the standard ShackBurger, cheesey fries, and location signature Malt of America. The burger comes with a nice mayo/ketchup fry sauce that they term "ShackSauce". The meat is definitely the star and is flavorful, salty, moist, and satisfying. The signature Malt of America was exactly what I like in an ice cream treat and I can't wait to pair with it again. The cheese on the fries I wasn't super impressed with, so I'll probably just stick to the regular fries next time. You are probably wondering, why go through the hoops to make a trip to the MOA for a burger when you can get one so many other spots? Well I will say that this is the kind of burger that I will be craving, even with a half dozen fast causal burger shops between me and this Shake Shack. If you are going to the mall anyways, it's a no brainer to stop in here. Overall, the only thing you could possibly dislike about this place is the amount of calories you are inevitably going to pack on each trip! read more

Shake Shack Mall of America - OREO Cookie Funnel Cake Shake - Burgers Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

The secret to this place is...drumroll! Go BIG or go home. We went before the lunch rush..and believe me when I say they get a rush. We were able to walk right up and order when we arrived, everything sounds and looks amazing. I had my adventurous eater with me (10 year old son) and he ordered the Shake Stack...I looked at the size of it and backed off to a bacon cheeseburger. We both ordered fries and a raspberry limeade, damage was a little under $32...yikes! Took about 10 minutes for it to come out as it's all made to order. It was a long 10 minutes for a pregnant woman and a humane garbage disposal to wait, but for the most part it was worth it. The bacon cheese burger was good, better quality than most places by far. Fries...probably would even bother next time, nothing fancy or even that great about them. Shake stack you ask? Are you freaking kidding me!? This thing comes out like some delicious dream a pregnant woman such as myself would come up with. Melted cheese, deep fried golden brown portobello mushroom on top of a delicious burger. I wanted to smack it out of my sons hands and devour it. I won't lie, I totally man handled him for a couple bites. It was way better than I could have dreamt up. Limeades were nice and tart...did I mention the shake stack though?!? Seriously check out that burger!!! read more

Came here for opening night and even though the lines were long, the service was quick and friendly. I ordered the smoke shack burger and it was delicious! The smoke shack had cherry peppers, crispy bacon, cheese and a shack sauce (reminds me of spicy mayo). I love the old school crinkle cut fries and yummy chocolate shake. I will be back again! And incase you're wondering where it's located: it's on the third floor near Nordstrom by the new food court. read more

Shake Shack Mall of America - Burgers Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

Shake Shack started out as a hot dog stand in New York City and has achieved near cult status. It's now expanded to cities around the U.S. and the world. I've bypassed stores in New York, London and Atlanta but finally tried the one at Mall of America. Overall, I was disappointed. I kept my order basic with a Shack Burger, crinkle cut fries and a chocolate malt. I found the burger on the small side with very thin slices of tomatoes. The cheese was nicely melted and gave the burger great flavor. Overall, the burger was very tasty. I love crinkle cut fires - they're my favorite after McDonald's fries. What I got was mostly tiny broken pieces. They were a major disappointment. I ordered a chocolate malt, which the menu states is a shake with malt flavor added for a small upcharge. Well, mine had zero malt flavor, zero. The chocolate malt at Dairy Queen is much better, bigger and less expensive, although I could tell that Shake Shack uses a better quality chocolate. And then there's the craziness behind the counter. Despite at least a dozen people working on orders, the system is not well organized, and results in annoyingly long waits of 10 - 15 minutes to receive your food. I suspect employees aren't being deployed efficiently. I'm glad I tried Shake Shack and I'd go back, but it's not the special experience I was expecting. read more

Not sure what all the hype is about. I came for lunch and had the shack stack which is a cheese burger topped with a fried, cheese stuffed portobello mushroom. I also had a strawberry lemonade...but no fries and my total was $14.10. Whaaaaat? For a burger and drink? So the burger was fine. Really nothing special. The burger was a bit thin, the mushroom on top was good....but there were no sauces or anything and it was just a bit bland. It certainly wasn't a bad meal and I would come back and try something else.....but for me, I'd much prefer five guys or in and out. Or even whataburger. Really, any of the newer fast food burger places are better or at least as good as shake shack was. read more

Totally lived up to the hype. Food was excellent! Custard delish! Since its so new and trendy right now- they are always really busy which is good because I would have gone back to order more fries had the line not been so long. read more

I have gone to other Shake Shacks in the past and have always been happy, but not this time, at this one. Fries were cold and over cooked. My Single Hamburger looked NOTHING like the photo and reminds me of a pathetic looking hamburger. For $7.88 for a hamburger and fries here, I expected better. But I'll take McDonald's food every day over what I got served today. read more

I meant to review this some time ago, bit attached is the copy of my receipt to prove my visit. I was floored at the level of service by the manager (I didn't get his name as I was on a phone call- darn it!) he was a colored man with a beautiful will to make a customers eating experience great! He came to the table a few times. The first being introducing himself and asking if we were all good and if we needed anything. Jokingly my husband said I could use ranch but I know you don't carry any. The manager quickly said, I'll be right back and left the restaurant located in the Mall Of America eatery above main engrave. We looked at each other puzzled He then returned with a couple of to go small containers of ranch! We looked at him and laughed ourselves pleasingly! What a guy! What service! He then said "if you need anything else, just let me know". He then turned around and asked a couple ladies same thing. We watched him and this went in for a good 20+ minutes as people were pouring in. He was genuinely smiling and genuinely helping people. I promised myself I would never cliche this, bit it is filling in saying 'give this man a rai$e. I will definitely be returni read more

Shake Shack Mall of America - Cheese fries and SmokeShack. - Burgers Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

Back a couple of times since the first visit. Opinion is largely unchanged. Last time I tried the Shack Stack (Cheeseburger and a 'Shroom Burger topped with lettuce, tomato, ShackSauce). It was good but not extraordinary. By the way, you might want to wait for the molten cheese to cool down a bit before taking your first bite. Was there with a group. Again, the line was long but moved briskly. Everyone was satisfied with their order. With all of the fine burger places in the Twin Cities, Shake Shack is a nice addition but, in my view not a game changer. read more

Shake shack has the best burgers and shakes I've ever had. The chicken is very crispy and it comes with all the toppings that you would want

The burgers were delicious, fries as well. The shakes were bland (chocolate and white mocha). The order took 40 minutes to get made. The workers were super friendly but as for food I will not come back. My brother and I got an allergic reaction half an hour after eating here. We do not have any diagnosed allergies, but I would warn anyone with allergies from eating here. read more

The food is always consistently tasty but they still don't seem to have it figured out how to deal with weekend crowds. If I preorder something and I'm 35-40 min late to pick up Bc i got caught in an interaction at work, I shouldn't have to wait for over 5 min before I finally forcibly make someone talk to me when I'm standing in the window area for pickup for preorders and I definitely shouldn't have to wait an additional 10 for y'all to make my food. Not to mention for 17.00 and some change and I only ordered a double burger and chicken sandwich they should be more substantial than a dollar menu item from fast food. They gave me free fries and forgot my second patty on the burger, so really I just lost chunks of time out of my break from work, money, and the whole experience was completely ridiculous. I definitely won't be making any recommendations for people to go eat there, I'll caution people to avoid it or be prepared for chaos and mistakes. read more

Used the self order kiosk for 3 ppl. Paid for our food about 55 mins ago and still here waiting along with several other people to get our food. Not sure if they lost our order or what is going on. Horrid service. Noticed that there seems to be 20 ppl behind the counter working but no one is helping get these lost orders or find them. They take random orders off the line and fill those first. Asking for management who just arrived halfway into the day to multiple angry ppl - she basically had to wade in and get the order herself for us. I've never had crap service at a shake shack before. This one is run very poorly and the company should be ashamed. read more

so I went today to the shake shack at MOA and I have to say the place was beautiful! The seating service everything excellent but just one problem THE FOOD! The burger was so disgusting I couldn't eat it! I got the shack burger and a salted Carmel shake and cheese fries! Sadly I didn't like anything! I have tried the shake shack in Dubai and I felt that it wasn't good as well! But after going twice I have confirmed it! Burger King tastes way better and honestly the whole place is over hyped and over rated! Just because we see marketing on Instagram and other social media does not automatically make the food good! I also feel like the shake just tasted like thick ice cream I could barely drink it! Almost made me vomit Shake shack is not that great in my opinion! read more

I finally got a chance to try shake shack at the mall because there wasnt a mile long line and holy smokes!! At first I was shocked at the $40 price tag that came with the two of us getting burger, fries, and shakes but once I took a bite of the smokeshack burger I didnt even care anymore. The food here is genuinely delicious. The burgers and cheese fries were incredible. Great flavor and cooked to perfection. My only criticism would be that they ran out of vanilla ice cream so we didnt get the shakes we wanted. Still, when I want to indulge I will definitely be stopping here again! read more

This was our second time here. The burgers are quite good. It is a little expensive for what you get. It isn't really fast food. You get a pager and wait awhile. The best part is that they have beer. I ordered a Lift Bridge but they were out. A manager gave me a pint of their signature tap and had me come back for a free refill for my inconvenience of not getting what I ordered. I thought that was a great gesture and the beer was good. read more

I was so bummed about the food here. My burger was served to me and I was anticipating my first bite, imagine the horror when I bit into a burger that was nearly raw! I couldn't believe it! My boyfriend's burger was cooked. Anyways, the fries were okay, a little undercooked. Shakes were actually really good. Pretty pricey for the food that was given.

I don't really get the buzz about Shake Shack. It's a bit overpriced for the quality, and the quality is sub-par. The line at MOA can be ridiculous compared to other vendors in the food court, and if you're going to spend over $10 on a burger meal you could go sit down somewhere. My boyfriend and I each ordered the Hot Chicken sandwich, which was actually very good. BUT, it was really small for $8. The fries we ordered were cold, and we had a hard time getting a refill on our soda. We would go back for the sandwiches, if the line isn't long. read more

I'm a serious Shake Shack nut. I've waited in Madison Square park for over an hour for a sweet, sweet burger. I've almost missed flights in JFK to sneak over for a quick snack. I was so excited I almost flipped out when I walked by and saw this burger mecca inside MoA.... but once I took the first bite, the dream faded. It just isn't the same. Not sure if it's supplier issues or what, but this location needs to step up. read more

Arguably, one of the better fast food burgers available whose fan following is at constant odds with a particular West coast chain. Despite the quality burger, this location has so much working against it I find it hard to even give it a three star review. First star deduction, the food ordered in a certain way is crucial to the overall taste. I detest crinkle cut fries, but fries slathered in cheese approaches transcendence. Unfortunately, on the day of my visit they were out of peanut butter. If you haven't tried peanut butter on a hamburger, there's a McDonald's nearby that would be better suited to your "adventurous" taste. I understand the logistics of fast food especially a location heavily visited by tourists. However, it wasn't until after I had ordered, paid and began walking away did the cashier inform me they were out of peanut butter. My second deduction is for the service. The customer service was absolutely terrible. The restaurant was dirty, tables uncleaned and an unfriendly cashier who went out of his way to be unhelpful. I've been to a Shake Shack before and I remember not having to ask for all the fixings on my burger. Since they were out of peanut butter, I reordered my burger expecting to get lettuce, onion, tomato and etc, but I got exactly what I ordered, a single bacon cheeseburger. I didn't ask for a bun, but they took the initiative to include one. I've always enjoyed my experiences with Shake Shack, but this particular location is horrible. read more

The shakes are truly amazing, the burgers taste great as well the only problem is the size of the burgers. They are tiny !

Shake Shack! You can never go wrong ordering from Shake Shack. The menu here had a ton of options that you could only find in the midwest-Minnesota-Wisconsin area, that looked very intriguing and interesting. The burger that I chose to try was Smoke Shack, with cheese fries and the monthly shake. After about 15 minutes, my order was ready. They got the burger right but they gave my plain fries and the wrong drink. They immediately gave me new fries but somehow forgot about my drink. The burger was one of my favorites that i've ever had at shake shack. It was very favorable and delicious and I highly recommend trying it. Overall, I had a pretty good experience here. read more
