    My kid was looking for his usual Shake Shack meal here - hot dogs and fries - but we ended up just getting some fries since apparently they didn't have hot dogs. This location is on the casino floor at the Encore with no other way to access it, meaning that if you're there with kids, someone needs to go in (no backpacks allowed either) to pick up the order. At least on nice days, there is plenty of seating outside the Encore to eat, but there seems to be no other way to get your order. The fries were fine as always, but there was nothing on the Shake Shack website that indicated limited access at this location, so this was far from the "usual" Shake Shack experience we were expecting.

    Nice double burger

    So I will update my review of Shake Shack at Encore Boston Harbor. The food remains exactly the same as my previous review. I actually found or should I say finally decided to taste the Shroom burger it's absolutely fabulous. It's two Portabella mushrooms with cheese in the middle, deep fried in a Panko crust the cheese comes ozzing out as you bite into it, the best thing is, you can get , a burger and a shroom or you could order a double get two burgers, and a Shroom for like 16 dollars an excellent value. The location remains the same with plenty of seating next to Wynn Betting which makes it very convenient to gamble/on anything in the country and enjoy a nice meal. The shakes are fabulous all around a great place to eat and enjoy a shake. The staff however could improve greatly, take for instance, today I ordered a double with the Shroom. I ended up with just a double no Shroom. It's a busy day snd there is a long line, a bunch of games on and the girl at the register somehow forgot my shroom, and also put my order in as a to go order, which made it difficult for me to get condiments. The kicker is the reason I lowered the point today is because when the girl giving out the food at the counter, when I asked for a fork. She turned around because they keep the forks behind the counter, grabbed a fork and just threw it right into my bag with no acknowledgment nothing extremely rude. I happen to be a general manager of a store who deals with the public, and if my sales people, my clerks, my register people anyone disregarded a customer like that I would definitely give them a written warning. It just irked me the wrong way, and that's the reason for my updated review with one lower star. The food, I definitely suggest coming and enjoying the food. I assume that the food is the same at all the locations. I really enjoy the food. The pricing is not too bad even at the casino. I do, however hope that management reads this review and instills in their front of house staff how to react and act properly with the customers that would be a much appreciated value eating at this establishment. As of this time parking is still free in the inside garage and across the street at the outside parking lots for the entire complex there is no outside access to shake shack. You must enter the casino to eat at this location so make sure you're of age. If you're coming here just to eat, bring an extra hundred dollars to have a good time at casino it's awesome‼

    Shake Shack slaps -- especially after a long night at Memoire. When you're craving something solid after hitting the casino hard, this is the spot. The food is always on point, no matter what time of night you roll in. It's a bit pricier than their other locations, but let's be real, when the craving hits, who's counting? The location is super convenient, right off the casino floor with plenty of seating. Just be warned, it gets really busy on event nights, so plan accordingly if you don't want to spend too much time hunting for a seat. The service here is... well, it's a bit of a toss-up. Sometimes the staff is upbeat and friendly, and other times, you can tell they're just trying to survive the rush. I get it; it's a busy place, but it's hit or miss depending on when you visit. You've got the option to stand in line to order or use the kiosks -- both are fine, though the kiosks are definitely quicker. Bonus: This location accepts comp dollars (just make sure you order at the register), so if you're having a night full of losses, at least you can salvage it with a comped meal. Definitely a nice touch to make you feel like you're winning at something! Overall, it's a great choice when you need to refuel after a night of... well, whatever you were doing on the casino floor. Highly recommend, just know the service can vary.

    I really enjoyed my lunch here at the Shake Shack. Though my hubby wasn't as impressed as me! lol. We shared a Shack Stack (cheeseburger with a shroom on top) I thought it was really yummy. We also had fries with cheese sauce and they were pretty good too! The winner for me was the chocolate shake! So thick, creamy and delicious!

    I love shake shack! I also love that this one is open so late! The food took a while because of its location so that's understandable. We got 2 burgers but they messed up one of the burgers. One of the orders was a regular shack cheeseburger with extra tomatoes (that was done well) and the other one was supposed to be a smoke burger double patty but it came single patty and had a bunch of toppings that weren't part of the actual order. They tasted great regardless. They were generous with the fries too. Delicious and definitely going to be a go to late meal!

    I am a huge burger fan, so I was down for trying out the Shake Shack. Sadly, it was not one one of my favorite places. We split a shack stack. I found the burger to be lacking flavor, and the mushroom to be kind of chewy. We also split an order of cheese fries. Again, not overly impressed. Frozen fries with cheese sauce. Just didn't do it for me. I will say, that the chocolate malt that I had was absolutely amazing! So some Star redemption for the malt, but nothing for the rest of the meal.

    A funny thing is my parents have been one who swears by the place & they right (and yes it is good even in a casino like this). I got in & person at the counter was able to help me out with the offering including size of my meal plus you get a vibration pager with a number when your order is ready & you can customize your tip so it you like even numbers the people are able to help you out & note they got tap cards for security (photo will accompany). And now you know.

    I don't frequent fast food establishments but I heard about the Korean Burger at Shake Shack so my husband and I decided to try it out at this location. The cashier was efficient, quick, and friendly with our order. Given the long line, we had to wait a little for our order. But it was worth it! The Korean burger was juicy and the crunchy onions and green onions made the burger experience even better. Honestly, I don't know what makes it a Korean burger but that burger was great! The spicy Korean bbq crinkle cut fries was not spicy and again, not sure what makes it Korean but the fries were good. Overall, it was a great burger experience and the atmosphere was good given that it is inside the Forbes 5 Star resort.

This is the only Popeyes within the location. Folks, you've got it. Original post: WE WANT POPEYES! As a loyal Popeyes fan and lover, my biggest disdain with moving to MA was the lack of Popeyes locations. There's nothing Popeyes cannot fix. If I had the worst day of my life, you could put a 4-piece combo in front of me and my life would be perfect again. I've ordered from this Popeyes locations many times since moving here 3 years ago. They removed the 4 piece off the menu, they were consistent then not, etc. With this being the only Popeyes available to me, they really need to pay their employees more and treat them better. I've never stepped a foot inside, but saw reviews about their ambiance being more technologically forward with self-check out kiosks that people aren't comfortable with while employees were short staffed, overworked, and inventory was insufficient. Corporate demands a lot, but you've got a lot going for you. I want my 4 piece without missing items, replacements without acknowledging me. Treat your employees well and hire more.

We walked into a small, unassuming space where the focus is squarely on freshly prepared food made with bold, authentic flavors. The dining room is modest and functional, with a counter and a handful of tables that give it the feel of a neighborhood taquería rather than a sit-down restaurant. The energy is practical and welcoming, with the open kitchen allowing us to see the tortillas being pressed and the meats being grilled fresh behind the counter. The birria tacos are the signature order and the dish that defines the menu. We ordered a few and found the tortillas crisped up on the griddle, the beef tender and well seasoned, and the rich consommé served on the side for dipping. The combination of the savory meat, the crispy tortilla, and the deep, slightly smoky broth made each bite feel layered and complete. Other standouts include the adobada tacos, which had a good char and a subtle spice that built gradually, and the lengua torta, with tender tongue layered between a soft roll and topped with fresh ingredients. The pozole was hearty and comforting, with a broth that carried the flavor of the hominy and meat without being overly heavy. The tamales, chicken flautas, and well-seasoned rice and beans rounded out the menu, each arriving hot and freshly made. The pickled onions and house salsas added extra flavor, and the horchata was a popular choice to pair with the meal, its cinnamon sweetness cutting through the richness of the dishes. Service was friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant maintained a relaxed neighborhood atmosphere that keeps people coming back. Despite its modest size, the kitchen moved efficiently, making it a reliable option for both dine-in and takeout. The staff checked in at the right moments and kept the pacing of the meal comfortable, ensuring that even when the small dining room filled up, the experience stayed smooth. If you are looking for authentic Mexican food in the Boston area, Taquería Jalisco stands out for its consistently flavorful cooking, generous portions, and menu built around classic recipes rather than modern interpretations. It is the kind of place where the food speaks for itself, and the simplicity of the setting only adds to the sense that you are eating something made with care and tradition.

I took a star off for the general vibe of the area. Not a place you want to bring your family if you are in town.
