    Chicken Shack-, Fries
    Carina H.

    On a Sunday evening, this location was peaceful and quiet. There was a digital kiosk, and only one other group stood in line to order. The food came out quickly, which I appreciated because I hadn't had a proper meal yet. The Chicken Shack was crispy, juicy, and really well seasoned. It might have been because I haven't had Shake Shack in a while, but this was the best Chicken Shack I've had. The sandwich had me satisfied.

    Smokestack and fries
    Judy F.

    Ate here when I received promo, spend $5 and receive a complimentary Smokestack. I arrived on a Saturday 12 ish. Placed my order and waited 5 minutes. Sat down and started eating the burger, tasted cool versus piping hot. The fries had a crispier exterior, browner crust and less fluffy interior than usual. I was so hungry so I continued eating the fries and slowly nibbled on the burger til I got to it's center - cold. It's not cold cuz of the slice of tomato and leaf of lettuce. That's when I decided to bring the burger to the pickup area with a complaint. The staff quickly corrected the situation and delivered a fresh burger. I burger was warmer. I've never had an issue with the way it cooks its burger at this location until now. I'll have to ask for a 'done' burger.

    Shake shake burgers taste good. Service is sufficient. Clean establishment However. How do you make and present a burger like that It's falling apart. No care no professionalism Work on that It take a little time to make it properly. Instead of slamming something together and it falling apart for the customer.....

    Avocado Bacon Burger

    so i ordered an avocado bacon burger and got no avocado in it.... was disappointed and didnt notice till after which i couldve just gotten a reg bacon cheeseburger at that point. I also got fries they were fresh. i got chicken nuggets but they werent well fried they were raw. The workers were nice however and place was clean. Food wasnt so good tbh. But the fries were rlly good

    Great food and very comfortable seating! Just what I was looking for when craving a quick burger

    App deal BOGO free shake
    kristin c.

    I just learned about the promo deals on their app so make sure to sign up. Can take advantage until the end date. Right now, there's a promo for Free smokeshack ($9) with $10 min. purchase. Spent more than that bec got another burger and fries, but still a good deal. The smokeshack had bacon and cherry peppers, which give a good kick. Their veggie burger had a soft patty (I thought would be dry but not), was ok esp with the toppings. There is also a mobile order deal for 2 shakes for price of 1. Some are housemade custard. The frozen hot cocoa looked ok but the maple snickerdoodle didn't look as advertised. I got my chocolate shake with malt but not much difference, just regular. Located on busy Austin Street. A lot of employees handing out orders. Was it the veggie burger but part of our order took a bit of time. Seating is in front or up on the 2nd fl. 3.5 stars

    I can safely say I've never been to a bad Shake Shack since I first began going to the franchise 8 years ago. It's one of the more pricier burger joints but it's definitely worth it's money in service, quality and overall vibe. I can always come around to any location and expect high shelf service and it's no exception over to where I went. Best Smashburgers in the game, nice tender chicken with the right amount of crisp, fries that could possibly beat out McDonald's in the taste test and nobody is touching the shakes because they own that department. It's just comforting that no matter which location you go to, the service is gonna be as consistent and precise, as well as the food being incredible.

    I haven't been to this location too frequently but I will say they are much more organized and clean and efficient earlier in the day. I scheduled my order for pickup to take to the beach and it all worked out very well. The chicken shacks and our fries were crispy and warm all the way to the beach and we didn't have to wait a long time. When we have dined in, best time is to go on the weekdays when it's not so busy. The employees are very helpful but I enjoy the self service ordering machines.

    Showed up to order at 9:45pm and was told an employee that the restaurant was closed. Sat in my car and watched them turn away at least 6 people in 10mins. Mean while there is at least 6 persons dining in. Signs show they close at 11pm.

    Raising Cane's keeps its concept incredibly simple, focusing almost entirely on chicken tenders,…read morefries, Texas toast, coleslaw, and its signature sauce. We walked into a bright, clean, and energetic space with a fast-paced atmosphere that reflects how popular the chain has become. Even with a line forming at the counter, the staff kept things moving efficiently, and the operation felt well organized considering the volume of customers coming through the door. The dining room has a casual, functional energy, the kind of place where the focus stays on getting a satisfying meal rather than lingering, and the open kitchen adds a layer of transparency to the process. We went with one of the tender combos, which is really the reason most people come here in the first place. The chicken tenders were juicy, freshly cooked, and had a crispy coating that held up well without feeling overly heavy. The coating had a good crunch that stayed intact through the meal, and the chicken itself was moist and tender throughout. The real standout, though, is the Cane's Sauce. It adds a tangy, peppery flavor that works perfectly with the chicken and honestly ties the entire meal together. Between the tenders, crinkle-cut fries, and Texas toast, it is a simple meal, but one that is executed consistently well. The toast is buttery and soft, and the fries are solid enough to hold their own alongside the main event. One thing we have noticed is that the chicken can occasionally feel a little greasy depending on the visit, especially if you are ordering a larger combo. For some people that may not be an issue at all, while others might find it sits a bit heavy afterward. That has varied from visit to visit, but it is worth mentioning because the meal is definitely on the richer side compared to some other fast food chicken options. The coleslaw provides a lighter contrast, though it is a fairly standard version of the side and does not stand out the way the chicken and sauce do. The staff during our visit were friendly and efficient, and the restaurant was well maintained. Food came out quickly, and despite the limited menu, there is something refreshing about a place that focuses on doing one thing rather than trying to offer dozens of different options. The simplicity of the menu makes the decision process easy, and the consistency of the meal across visits is a big part of the appeal. Raising Cane's delivers a satisfying chicken tender meal with quality chicken, a great signature sauce, and consistently solid sides. It may not be the lightest meal around, but when you are in the mood for crispy chicken tenders and a straightforward comfort-food combo, it is easy to see why so many people keep coming back. The meal is familiar, filling, and hits the right notes for what it sets out to do.

    The ambiance of canes is great especially when it's not too busy. I went on a weekday night and the…read moreservice was quick, there was a lot of seating, and it was still a lively atmosphere. The decor is so cute and I love how each canes location has decor relating to the local area. The first box combo comes with 4 tenders, Texas toast, fries, and a drink. You can swap out the Cole slaw with more Texas toast or fries. I love how filling it is and when we got the fries, it was so crispy and fresh. The chicken was a good texture, but I you definitely need to eat it with the canes sauce to get flavor from it.

Great value too (for $50 you can get a family combo that includes a variety of sandwiches, wraps, wings, A WHOLE CHICKEN, fries, nuggets, cheese sticks, and a large soda!). Aside from the soft drinks, they also serve hot/iced espresso and coffee. Seriously, don't sleep on the espresso drinks... you can save a few "bucks" by coming here instead and supporting this small business (hehe, see what I did there?).

The only item that I don't particularly like is the pumpkin pie, while it's tasty and has a nice texture I don't really taste any pumpkin. I hope this place stays open would really be a good staple and some added variety to the restaurants available in the few blocks of stores located in this section of 108 street.

By the time I remembered to take a picture, the damage had already been done. I've been to Golden K Burgers a few times now, and it has quietly become one of my favorite burger spots. It's a Korean-American burger joint with a cozy diner feel inside. Nothing overly flashy, just great vibes, a comfortable atmosphere, and a staff that always greets you with a warm smile that makes you feel welcome. Over the times I've been here, I've tried the Farmhouse Burger, Big Kahuna Burger, BBQ Chip Burger, and the A1 Burger. Honestly, they've all been excellent. But somehow... I keep coming back to the A1 Burger. Now I know what some of you are thinking. "A1 sauce? Really? There are so many better burger sauces than A1!" I actually agree! A1 has never been my first choice for burgers. But my goodness... whatever magic they're working here just works! The two juicy beef patties, perfectly marinated mushrooms and onions, melted Swiss cheese, tangy A1 sauce, and soft buttery brioche bun come together like a perfectly conducted symphony. Every ingredient has its role, and none of them overpower the others. The mushrooms bring an earthy richness, the onions add sweetness, the Swiss cheese gives it that creamy nuttiness, and then the A1 sauce swoops in with just enough boldness to wake up your palate without stealing the show. Funny enough, every topping on this burger (except the A1 sauce) is exactly what I'd normally choose for any burgers anyway, yet the A1 somehow becomes the finishing touch that ties everything together! Another thing I really appreciated was how well the burger was constructed. It held together beautifully from the first bite to the last without collapsing into a soggy mess. That's an underrated quality that deserves recognition. The fries were also fantastic because they weren't buried under a mountain of salt like so many places do. I actually found myself wondering if they'd fry them a second time upon request because I love my fries extra crispy. I guess I'll have to ask next time! I've also had their 12-piece Buffalo Wings before. I wouldn't say they're the best wings I've ever had, but they're definitely very good. They came out crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, marinated evenly with buffalo sauce (dry) that had just the right balance of buttery richness, tanginess, and heat. They were satisfying without being overly greasy. From the outside, Golden K Burgers probably doesn't scream, "This is one of NYC's best burger joints!" But trust me when I say this: you'll find yourself craving it again very soon. And to me, that's the highest compliment I can give any restaurant. There are plenty of places that impress you once. The truly great ones are the ones that make you want to come back! Give Golden K Burgers a try! Highly recommended!
