    Our first time and last time coming to this Shake Shack, fry on the tray has a piece of dark hair on it. Burgers had no flavor at all.

    Quality, taste and cleanliness is far apart from being a gourmet burger place. Restaurant was dirty, empty, and sad feel... My fries came with a piece of hair on it

    BIRTHDAY MONTH=BIRTHDAY COUPONS=HAPPY RODNEY Free shake for Rewards members Strawberry shake- I haven't had an In N' Out strawberry shake in over 20 years, but as far as my memory can recollect, I believe Shake Shack's strawberry shake is just as good. Maybe better. Real strawberries, house-made vanilla frozen custard. This frozen concoction was thick, creamy, and high quality. Service was good. Ordering via the app was simple. Curiously, I did not receive a notification on the app that my shake was ready, nor did an employee bring out my shake to the counter for pickup. I had to ask if my shake was ready, and the manager pulled it out of the chest freezer. Being in the freezer made the shake a bit thicker and in need of some defrosting. Plenty of indoor & outdoor seating, this Shake Shack also has a drive-thru. I love a good shake, and Shake Shack's are pretty darn good, if you ask me. The strawberry shake hits, and I wouldn't hesitate to get it again. I'm not a fan of their burgers, but Shake Shack's namesake shakes are worth a visit.

    K-Shack BBQ Burger

    I like Shake Shack and ordering via the app. Thought I'd try a different burger other than my favorite, SmokeShack. I ordered the K-Shack BBQ Burger among with fries for $3 (via the app only). My food was ready when I arrived and was still hot/warm. Fries were crispy. However my burger looked nothing like the picture. It looked like squashed up mess. The flavor was average. $11.29 is a lot for a burger. I will think twice before deviating from my favorite again. Restaurant appeared clean inside and out. I didn't have much interaction with employees. Sis like that my order was ready as promised in the app.

    I went to this Shake Shack twice: once during the Shack Challenge, and the other to redeem my free burger/sandwich reward from said challenge. My review of The Market Place location in Irvine mentioned that a $1 Shack Hack of a fountain drink would count as a valid order for the Shack Challenge, and that's actually what I did on my first visit here. I wanted to rest for a little while, but it was early evening when I went, and I definitely didn't want to go to a coffee shop at that time of day. I placed my order in the app for the $1 fountain drink and picked it up just a couple minutes later. When I first arrived, there was a girl who immediately greeted me and offered to assist. I told her my name for pickup, and she immediately went and retrieved my Large Coke Zero. Yes, you read that right. The $1 Shack Hack includes the Large size, so why not?! There were plenty of empty tables inside, so I sat at one and sipped on my drink while scrolling through my phone. Suddenly, it felt like a coffee shop, but with a soft drink replacing the coffee lol. The ambience was great, the noise level was reasonable, and the Coke Zero I was sipping on really hit the spot after a busy weekend being out and about. On my second visit, I went to redeem my reward of a free burger/sandwich. They had recently rolled out the French Onion Soup Burger on their menu, and I wanted to give that one a try. This particular burger can be ordered with one, two, or three patties, and knowing that the free reward would encompass all three, I chose the trifecta. After placing my order on my phone, the app gave me an estimated wait time of 7 minutes, which was quite fast I thought! I would have expected at least 10 to be honest! I came in well before my scheduled pickup time, and there were no employees at the front to assist customers, contrary to my first visit. With the exception of the table closest to the triple filtered water station, all the tables by a window or wall were occupied. I sat at that table for ease of access to the water as well as napkins. From that table, I could see the employees working in the kitchen, but none of them noticed me waiting there. I didn't bother to flag down an employee from the back until a couple customers came in a minute before my scheduled pickup time to pick up their order. I then went up and told an employee my name for pickup, knowing I might have to wait a minute or two more. She went to the back to check on my order, and while she was bagging up my order, another employee asked for my name for pickup. She really waited until after I told her co-worker my name before asking that question?? Anyways, even though service was off at that time, the first employee I spoke to came up to the counter and beckoned to me to pick up my takeout bag. I could tell they were working hard in the kitchen, but maybe a little too hard that they forgot to cover the register at the front. My takeout bag contained the Triple French Onion Soup Burger alongside three packets of ketchup and a sizable stack of napkins, all within a cardboard tray that was about the same length as the bag. It got a little tricky to take the tray vertically straight out of the bag, but once I did, I was able to feast on the behemoth of this burger! Well, at least the patties were a behemoth, but the same can't be said for the French Onion flavor as it wasn't as prevalent as I hoped, especially for the price point. Most of the flavor ended up on the wrapper, but the gruyere cheese really stole the show here! I absolutely loved how ooey gooey cheesy it was, and I wish the same could have been said for the onions as well. The burger also includes parmesan aioli, but I didn't distinctly remember tasting it. It was likely meshed with the gruyere cheese, some of which got stuck on the wrapper. They have a few kiosks by the front door to take your order, which might explain why there wasn't any employee stationed at the front counter on my last visit. However, I did see an employee assist a customer ordering at a kiosk. While I did enjoy the burger, I think you wouldn't be missing out on much if, say, you got some other triple burger for a few dollars less. Granted, I could have added some ketchup, but I shudder to ponder what the francophones would say about that. If I were to rate this Shack Shack on this last visit alone, I would have been vacillating between 3 and 4 stars. However, since I had a pleasant first visit here, I'll round up to 4. Also, if you're trying to get in on the Shack Challenge fun, sorry, but it has ended already. However, if you have the reward, but haven't redeemed it yet, here's another Shack Hack, this time from yours truly: The fine print mentions that the free burger/sandwich can be up to $16.99 in value. However, the Triple French Onion Soup Burger is actually more than that, yet I still didn't get charged upon redemption of the reward! You do get charged for add-ons, however, like bacon and avocado.

    Embarrassing but had to post. Was a little absent minded before delving in. Better next time

    Stopped by and ordered a double Shake Shack. Nice and flavorful. Also ordered a beef hotdog with onion relish and mustard, (got to me with just onions but ai was able to add some catchup and ranch that made it happen for me). Topped that off with an order of Onion Rings that hit the table nice and hot. Only my second visit here (the first was Veterans Day and it was awesome), and both times were pleasant experiences and the meals were tasty. The place is a buzz with family couples and individuals enjoying their meals and experiences and that's a place ai don't mind sitting and partaking. Surely will be back for more. Gratitude and give thanks Shake Shack and staff for another memorable meal experience til next time.

    Dubai chocolate shake
    Laura G.

    Flavor of patties: alright, 5/10. Bread: 8/10. Fries: 10/10. It's a good place to experience once. Or twice. Very pricey for a regular burger spot. It's clean inside, and you need a LONG restroom code to use it. You're going to spend about $20 each person if you get a whole meal. The Dubai shake was good. I've never had a Dubai pistachio anything, so it was good. Service was good. Just a LITTLE slow.

    I gave it a second chance, I'm all for second chances...and I'm sooooo glad I did!!!! Wow the summer menu is SPECTACULAR!!! I did the drive thru and it was quick and efficient. The gal at the drive thru even gave me ice water because it was a bit warm out I had a bacon burger with onion straws but ate it in the car on the way hone it was INCREDIBLE! The shack is so cute with string lights and adorable color scheme! The star was the fried pickles with ranch dressing...oh my wow!!! Go get these today!!!

    Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Shake
    Jay S.

    I really wanted to try the Dubai pistachio chocolate shake that is back at Shake Shack, I found it to be pretty good, a little pricey at $10 for a regular sized shake, but it had a a pretty good pistachio flavor with a nice chocolate crunch when you squeeze the cup to break up the chocolate. I had never been to to this Shake Shack and I thought the service was pretty fast, the ambiance was nice, and the food was decent too!

    Took the boys to get dinner. It took us 18 minutes for someone to take our order via drive thru and then 18 mins to get our food. They just opened so it was to be expected. And it was a Friday evening We couldn't use the free burger deal it's only if you go inside and use the kiosk. Use code burgerblitz from Dec 16-24 for a free burger. They forgot my boys pickles on the side. They were very busy I get it. I'm glad they had a chicken sandwich option since me and the boy are trying to stay away from beef. Little boy had a hot dog and they both seemed to enjoy their shakes more than anything. Get the double patty if you are hungry the Pattie's may be on the smaller side for the average Juan. I'm sure I'll be back I may let it die down a little and ask for our pickles.

    Drive Thru!!

    What can I say? IYKYK It's Shake shack! Food is 11/10 The place was clean, good service and quick too. Glad it's in Downey!!

    I stopped by the drive thru during their soft opening. I'm excited that there will be a drive thru at this location. It seemed like they were still training and when I drove up to the window they had me tap my credit card and gave me my order but didn't provide a receipt. I asked for one, and I'm happy I did. The bill was double what I should have been charged, they had to call a manager over to issue a refund and recharge me. As for the food the burgers were ok, the shakes were a bit on the thin side. The real winner for me was the chicken sandwich, they had a good crunch!

    See all

    Pitmasters' Society BBQ Grill…read more This is a review for my dining experience at Pitmasters' Society BBQ Grill. https://www.bbqgrillpitmasters.com/ My friends and I enjoyed eating at Pitmasters' Society BBQ Grill. Words to describe the cuisine would be sophisticated and elevated BBQ with Romanian fusion. Very flavorful and filling! LOCATION: It is located in the food court at Stonewood Mall. HOURS: They serve lunch and dinner. 10:00am-8pm SERVICE: We were greeted with a warm smile by Lori. I have never tasted Romanian food before, so I was excited to learn about their menu. She recommended several items for us to choose from. MENU We ordered the 3 MEAT COMBO PLATTER: You can select different meats. We chose: pork belly, sausage, and ribs, with corn and french fries. Wow! Every bite was delicious! I loved the seasonings! Salty goodness from the pork belly, the Romanian sleeveless sausage, "Mici" made from beef and pork was perfectly seasoned and paired well with mustard, and the ribs were tender and fell right off the bones. None of the meats were tough and were very scrumptious! :) ------ BRISKET SANDWICH -Delicious! The brisket was very tasty and was definitely the star of the sandwich! The bread, cheese, and the veggies that accompanied the brisket was the perfect ratio. I could taste each element in every bite! Other dishes we ate: PASTRAMI SANDWICH: Fun fact, Pastrami originated from Romania! Pastrami comes from the word pastramă which means to preserve. So of course their pastrami was top notch! BURNT ENDS TRITIP SIDES: For the sides they were all yummy. Sides they serve include frenchfries, vegetables, macaroni, mashed potatoes, and corn. My personal favorite was the mashed potatoes! They were whipped to perfection and creamy. I enjoyed the meal with my friends! I liked the presentations of each dish. The generous portions, fresh ingredients, and the garnishes on top of the foods made it look very special. We had to give accolades to the cook, Manny who made each dish. ***All in all I had a great experience dining at Pitmasters' Society BBQ Grill! If you are a meat and potatoes person, THIS IS THE PLACE! Their specialty is their grilled and smoked meats. It is great bbq packed with unique flavors inspired by Romania. Everything is fresh and appetizing! Poftă bună! :)

I wanted to try a little of everything so I ordered the 3 meat combo (chose ribs, chicken & brisket) & a burnt end pork belly / sausage mix. I really enjoyed the baked beans, burnt bit pork belly, & brisket - they all had good flavor. The chicken was good and not dry. The bbq ribs was decent but not super juicy / tender. The sides were a miss for me (besides the baked beans), the fries were a bit soggy (I mean could be because I got takeout), and the flavor of the slaw and the potato salad (?) could be better imo. But overall the bbq was tasty and is a fantastic value & i would order again to try more of their selections!

I also got the burger which is just what everyone should stick to. It's the best thing they have. I keep coming back because there is always seating available and it's easy to dine in but I ALWAYS hate using their restroom. They have not put any money into making it look or smell nice. The drains always smell like sewage. And the worst of it is that now that I have a baby, I went into to change his diaper and no changing table in sight. I thought this was a family restaurant. Will not be coming back until they add a changing table.
