Always a solid burger choice... i still prefer IN-N-OUT but this is soooo much closer to my home. burgers are tasty but yeah they are pricey... chicken items are delish fries are fine...crinkle are 2nd to the bottom of my french fry list (wedge being last). i like skinny fries (not shoestring)!! service is fast. i've never eaten here...always to-go. would be inspired to eat in if they had adult beverages. read more

Are used to love Shake shock, but something changed in the meat. Every single time I order a burger from here. It's a burger. Has a little hard pieces. Maybe the tendon? Regardless, it's not something that I would like to hop in my burger. It's very annoying when you eat a piece of meat and you have to stop chewing to find out whats in the food. And for the Price point, I would not recommend read more

Ordered on the app and got a free chicken sandwich. The app also gave an estimated time for pickup, so no waiting at all. Parked at the 15 minutes parking spot and walked 1 minute to the restaurant to pickup. Love the black truffle burger. Please keep it on the menu. One can also substitute buns with lettuce wrap! Good quality burgers. read more

I was staying at a local hotel and ordered from this location through Uber eats Delivery was great, however the food was awful! I ordered something so simple! The grilled cheese with bacon was burned (see pics) and the fries were lukewarm. Never again. It is clear they want to get over because they know you can't get to the restaurant to complain when you order on Uber Eats. SMH read more

I went around 11:30am on a weekday and it was quiet. The food came pretty quickly and I like that they being it to your table. We got a shack burger, the chicken avocado burger, chicken pieces, and there was a deal for free fries! The portions are not that large. I'm a small girl, and I think the burger and fries was just enough for me. read more

I was craving burgers for dinner, and Shake Shack is a tried and true! We ordered on the kiosk and got our food within just 15 minutes! We ordered burgers (w/extra shack sauce of course,) fries, and the new gochujang chicken bites with ranch. The soft potato buns are always a hit, and the fries were perfectly salted. The chicken was decent, but I want to come back and try the korean chicken sandwich soon! The space could have been a bit cleaner, but totally understandable given it was peak dinner time. read more

Ordered the double shake shack burger and fries. It was easy to customize the order and take off tomatoes. The order is taken by self serve kiosk. Entered our table number for dine in and the order arrived smoothly to our table. There are water cups available and a water dispenser. The water is triple filtered and has no flavor which I love. The burger was delicious and the cheese was melted well. Patties were soft. Lettuce is always slippery here so you'll eat it up in bite. Plenty of seating available whether booth or chair. Women's restroom has two stalls. There's a baby changing station. Automated hand towel dispenser and Dyson Air dryer. Clean. read more

We came here on a Sunday evening and this entire mall was packed with families. Despite the crowds they were efficient and even managed to find our table way outside. Everyone was helpful despite a number of people in front me slowing things down by wanting to pay in cash only , come on ppl lol. Otherwise beautiful well run location. Bet your local shake shack doesn't have ping pong table hah read more

SHAKE SHACK @ Del Mar I stumbled across Shake Shack after a fun night out exploring with my friends. We were staying at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar and was recommended to walk around this area. I've always enjoyed Shake Shack for their delicious shroom burger, full of cheese and it is SO GOOD! I've been to numerous locations outside of this specific one in Del Mar. I ordered this online, it was about $13 with the cheese fries, pretty standard. The food took pretty long to come out, I was waiting for about 10-15 minutes after ordering, and they weren't busy at all. Tables were dirty and sticky, so we wiped them with napkins. Food came out, it was pretty tiny, the portion was SMALL for it being over $9. It was not hot, but warm, so no melted cheese. A bummer. The cheese fries were a rip off for $4, it was cold and was pretty soggy. Overall, I wouldn't come back to this specific location, I felt like it could've been faster service for not being busy, making the food more fresh/hot, and cleaner tables. read more

Gorgeous day for a lettuce wrap burger. I'm going to have to rave about the crinkle cut fries crunchy and salted perfectly. The hook that got me was the truffle and Gouda cheese burger. For me to be able to indulge the fries was to order the burger- lettuce wrap. The flavor and savory burger was balanced out with the lettuce. Buns would have been amazing but I was able to enjoy as-is. Beer served in a can with a plastic cup icy cold. Beer and burger combination what an excellent experience! The service was efficient and friendly. Outdoor dining with beautiful weather. Splendid day. read more

Staff were very nice and helpful. Food was tasty and what you would expect. Note: the cheese burger is just meat, cheese, bun. At first I thought, wow, only $1 more for cheese fries, and then the fries came out with very minimal cheese sauce and I thought, I'm glad I only paid a dollar more for these. We would go back. read more

I picture can showcase alot more than what words can at times . I've visited a few times over the holidays as we got gift cards and also wanted to try ordering from the app/kiosk. Kiosk - you cannot use gift cards and the cashiers aren't exactly kind when you have questions about it. Certain promos are online/kiosk related so ordering with the cashier negates that so that's unfortunate. We also came in to try their Truffle burgers. Their truffle shack stack is delicious but pricey at $13.99. The black truffle burger was tiny and so smooshed on many occasions. I've ordered a few times with the app now and not once did i get a text letting me know the order was ready even though I'm standing there. I would ask a staff member when it was after the set pick time to inquire about order and she would then hand it over to me. This happened every time. The last time was the most defeating as the two burgers in our two go orders were so sad (see pics). I was in disbelief how badly they threw the burgers together. Shake Shack used to pride themselves on their burgers and presentation so it was unfortunate to see it come to this. I'm not sure I'd return even though we still have gift cards to use. The Melt across the street had way better burgers/prices/presentation and staff. read more

I was out with some coworkers for lunch on a Wednesday. Ordering was quick and so was getting our food. About 2/3 tables were open both inside and outside. Outdoor seating at One Paseo is really nice. I got a Shack Stack which is one beef patty + 1 shroom patty. The shroom patty is battered, fried mushroom with cheese inside. I quite liked it, but beware the cheese is really hot. Also got a side of fries which were just ok. A little on the soggy side than crispy. Unfortunately, they did mess up a couple of orders from my coworkers who received a regular shroom burger rather than the limited time black truffle shroom. I liked the fried mushroom patty because it was unique. That being said, I think Shake Shack is pretty pricey for fast food. I don't anticipate coming back anytime soon, but it was nice to try it. read more

Shake Shack is my favorite burger place. Yes, I know there are tons of burger options ranging from mom & pop burger shops to gourmet burgers at steak restaurants. But I just love the soft potato rolls, (usually) perfectly well done meat patties, and the creamy shack sauce. I had avoided crinkle cut fries ever since the horrendously dry ones I was forced to consume in elementary school, but Shake Shack has won me over to crinkle cut fries with their perfectly salted and crisp version. One time I treated myself to crinkle cut fries with cheese and bacon, and boy that is a food memory that still immediately elicits saliva in my mouth every time I think about it. Ordering via website or app is generally easy. Trying to find parking for order pickup is a disaster if you are trying to come around dinner time, so I have to wind my way up to the top floor of the parking structure frequently since circling around on the 1st and 2nd floors are often a waste of time. The one flaw was already mentioned by another reviewer & is the only thing preventing me from giving 5 stars. The lettuce is awful. Completely wilted, as if after spending money on all the ingredients to construct an amazing burger, Shake Shack decided to save a few bucks by purchasing lettuce that is a month old. This happens in every burger I order. PLEASE investigate either your lettuce vendor or how you are storing the lettuce. read more

Shake Shack offers a delightful dining experience that earns it a solid 4 stars from me. You have the option of ordering with a cashier or on a POS system. Let's start with the food - delicious. Their burgers are juicy, the fries crispy, and the shakes are downright addictive. The quality of ingredients shines through in every bite, making it a go-to spot for a satisfying meal. Downside is that their food is fairly expensive, kind of crazy to make a $13 burger. I came when it wasn't busy but they had an abundant of staff standing around but ready at any moment to make an order. As for ambiance, Shake Shack strikes the right balance between casual and inviting. The vibrant atmosphere is perfect for grabbing a quick bite with friends or enjoying a laid-back meal with family. This Shake Shack is apart of a small fancy shopping mall so it's perfect for before or after looking around. My favorite has to be the Shroom in the Shack Stack which is the only reason I'd keep coming back. It's so unique and I'm not sure wherever else you can get it. I just always have to convince myself to spend so much on said burger. read more

Service is always quick and the food is always good at this Shake Shack location. I appreciate the ability to order a gluten free bun and have allergen safe fries. A couple of times my pickup order has not been right but I've never had an issues fixing the order at the store. read more

My husband loves shake shack, every time we're in One Paseo he tries to come here. I am honestly a in n out girl. I think shake shack burgers are too thin of a party and lacks flavor. Most of the time I get it, the patty is dried out and overcooked on the sides so it's like darker color than the rest. I also hate the thick fries. It's okay. I mean, good to have once in awhile but I don't prefer it. read more

After having a lot burger joints now in the same price tier ($20~ for a meal), I'd just have to say that Shake Shack is incredibly mid. A greasy, burger on the small side with fries that could very well the krinkle cuts from your grocery store. It's not a terrible location though. The food court here is well kept, and the employees are nice. If the food was better it would be a 4. read more

Tried their veggie burger. It was surprisingly very tasty. Not super healthy with crispy onions, but they were too tasty not to eat. And their fries are great! read more

Another review for another great SS! This review pretty much covers every shake shack in San Diego County. THE BURGERS ARE AMAZING! After trying SS in Mission Valley and in La Costa and now her in Del Mar, I am still a huge fan and enjoy each bite just as much as the first time eating here! Best burgers for the price. The buns are soft, beef is flavorful, grilled just right, easy menu, no frills and nothing bad here. I will go ahead and see if I can find more to try, to compare. For scientific research, of course. LOL I am hungry now after writing this. read more

Was super excited to eat here after a long break (4 years). Was walking by and saw this sign advertising some new menu items. We all decided to order one of the new burgers - I went with the Carolina and my son and BF went with the smoky classic. When we received our burgers we were disappointed that it only came with one patty. The picture out front as well as on the wall inside the restaurant showed a double patty. We felt duped - totally misleading. We all left hungry and ended up going to In and Out for the double double. read more

Food good , new cucumber basil drink was pretty gross I don't know what was in it, but I don't think any cucumber or basil was. Some sort of green on bottom of cup then they filled with soa water. I watched another lady order same drink and when she tasted it, she made a horrible face asked if they could shake it up for her she tasted it again and made the same things I made not a good one. also not happy with ordering my own food. read more

I was so sad to see the state that my burger was given to me. The lettuce was soggy and limped, literally brown almost black. The burger was also barely warm. The size of the shackburger was also tiny. It was basically a size of a slider. For $7 a burger, I expected more. The workers also weren't really friendly, they were even intimidating. I use to love shake shack and would reason their high prices because of the quality but as you can see there's no more quality just high prices. read more

I love shack shack, but my wallet doesn't. The burgers and fries are bomb, but it's just so pricey compared to in-n-out. My favorite part of the burgers are the buns are closed on the bottom, so the sauces don't leak out. Wish more places would do that. I enjoy their limited edition burgers like the hot one's and the truffle burger. So good. Great location and easy parking. I only come here on special occassions. Love shack shack, love to come back. In N Out is still better though, when you factor in the price. If they cost the same, I'll choose Shake shack allday. read more

What a yummy lunch we had here! I had the Smoke Shack with Spicy Fries and ranch. The fries are the best I've had in a long time! I think I will try a different fry each time I visit. The fries were light, crispy and delicious especially with the spice sprinkled on top. I found the SmokeShack burger to be flavorful. I don't know if the flavor was mixed in the burger itself or the condiments in the burger. I scarfed it down and realized I didn't study it more. I could've probably ate another one. I also ordered a vanilla custard which was a perfect treat to end lunch. The staff from the get go were all helpful and friendly. I found out later that the person walking table to table asking how was everything, was the manager. Prior to knowing whom the manager was we had a problem with our drink order and an employee brought it to the managers attention and the manager quickly rectified the problem without question. The business itself was very clean. There was always a staff member clearing the table and sweeping up anything on floor. It was quite busy just after we walked in. There is a good number of seating inside. This is located in the One Paseo Market area, and in the area they offer communal outdoor seating not too far from Shake Shack. My husband and I were impressed with everything. We will be returning customers. read more

I mean I have loved shake shack since I lived in NY but now my fondness has grown. My daughter has a milk allergy which means I can't have dairy while breastfeeding so I have to really check everything I eat to make sure no dairy (that means cheese, milk and butter). I was relieved to see they actually have an allergen menu online and when I ordered my meal I was even able to flag my items as dairy free so they could be sure no cross contamination. Bravo, shake shack! Having a delicious meal and peace of mind - now that is 5 star service! Will look forward to returning next time we are down in SD and great knowing that they can accommodate and still have something yummy. This location is my favorite because they have easy covered parking in a garage and are next to other cute shops and restaurants. They have high chairs available for the little man and plenty of outdoor seating with umbrellas. read more

Not bad , Not the best either. The service was exceptional! It was a cute cozy cafe. A bit hard to find.

By far one of the best burgers in the "fast food" world, if you want to call it that. I came in on a Thursday night near closing and ordered on the side mobile stations. My food came quick and hot. The hot-honey fries are to die for especially with the HABANERO Mayo (gives you a KICK). That habanero Mayo really hit. The spicy, sweet fries with the hot sauce goes well. My burger was a double stacked with avocado and grilled onions added. My burger was cooked perfect medium rare+. The onions were so caramelized they were almost a jam and the cheese was melted just right on the burger. One of the best burgers I've ever had. Their Aoili sauce goes wel with the burger as well. Call it fast food or not, doesn't matter. Shake Shack is LEGIT! read more

3.5 Quality wise - 5/5: there's more care than most fast food joints. Buns are the top buns of any takeout. Taste - 3/5: the burgers are really good, but the Korean chicken sandwich was just okay. The breast was a little rubbery and the breading fell off as I ate it. The fries are def top notch. Service - 5/5: took 7 minutes from placing our order online to picking up. We currently live in the apartments next door so it's a quick easy dinner. You could probably order browsing the strip mall and then cruise by with ease. Price - 4/5: portions are a little skimpy for what you're paying for, but quality overrides it. Overall - good spot for a quick meal. read more

My favorite cheeseburger that still exists. What does that mean? Well, i'm not really sure what it is maybe it's The way that beef is raised these days l, or the fat content, or the fact that they need to cook the meat closer to well done these days, or maybe just old fashion nostalgia, but it's hard to find burgers that taste as good as when I was growing up in the 1970s. SS comes as close is anyone to bringing back that classic taste that burger seem to use do you have, by a perfect combination of the meat, cheese, bun and a little kick from the shack sauce...itreally is close to the perfect burger as I can find. The other things are fine the fries specially with the cheese are very good in the shakes are certainly very decent but not my favorites in those two categories but when you put all three together, definitely the package adds up to a five-star meal. read more

Small portions - burgers were very small, and if you add on a double patty it's literally almost double the burger price.

1/24/24 around 6pm Came in right before the dinner rush to redeem the generous T-Mobile Tuesday deal. Basically, Free ShackBurger with any purchase (above $1). The only "taxing part" is you have to download the Shake Shack app and order for online pick up. It was a very seamless process. Ample seating options. Only comment is that some of staff are very loud and enunciate the name for pick up, while others do not. Time to delivery was very prompt, and the food was delicious. It also shows up in your app when your order is ready. Odd thing about their app: I guess someone didn't mark my order as picked up so it kept showing my order was still in progress/ready for pick up, and wouldn't let me place another order...weirdest thing! I ordered just regular crinkle cut fries (perfectly crispy and salted) + shackburger (Juicy, a little greasy but super tasty) without the tomatoes. I specified that I wanted a side of shack sauce in my order and it didn't have that in the bag but it did have ketchup. So, it shows how much they truly pay attention to the sides that you request. read more

After years of debating, I finally decided to try out this place with my friend. She lives relatively close to the One Paseo Plaza and with social distancing and all things COVID, we decided that we could take out and enjoy some burgers. Shake Shack made it extremely easy to place our order online or in person and by the time we got there, our order was ready for pick up. I must applaud their app because it was extremely user friendly and allowed for unless customizations! I got the Shack Burger with fries with cheese on the side!! Now, I know Shake Shack has been unfairly compared to In N Out, however I feel like they should be compared to burgers in their price range. When comparing burgers in their price range, this is a superb burger! It is well cooked, juicy, flavorful, and very enjoyable. Their fries are crinkle cut, which isn't my favorite cut of fry, but it does have a great crisp to potato ratio. The winner of the entire meal is the cheese sauce, I don't know what cheeses they use, but if you're not getting the cheese to dip your fries in.. you're missing out. All in all, after my first time trying out Shake Shack a couple months ago, I have been back a few times since and every time they have been prompt with getting my order out and their food was consistent in quality. Until next time, Shake Shack! read more
