    TINY & DRY & SO REGRETTABLE.
    Sarita C.

    SHIT SHACK. I've heard from a couple people that the burger is pretty good. Some have even dared to claim it's superior to In-N-Out. I honestly no longer trust the judgement of any of these people. They were offering a BOGO for their Shackburger on Postmates so I figured it was a good opportunity to try them out. SO WRONG WAS I. First off, their "burgers" are actually sliders. Insanely small. Dry! Beef did taste slightly above average with some char flavor, which was the only acceptable part. That and the bun (texture not size). Not sure if they ran out of tomatoes, which then they should definitely inform the customer, but it came with nothing but a tiny sad piece of unfresh wilted lettuce & barely a smear of "sauce." Did I mention it was fucking dry?? And laughably small? I'd be even more heated if I had paid full price for this, but even at half the cost I'd say it was ridiculously overpriced for the size and lack of filling. The flavor was a slight notch above, I'll give'm that. Honestly, this probably mainly has to do with whatever idiot that assembled these. Maybe my experience can't speak for all their locations but this was a pretty lame first impression.

    Please check your food before eating it. My patty was pink and cold in the middle. This is from a pickup order on 6/20. So disappointed. Don't know if I'll be back.

    Shack burger, avocado bacon burger, and cheese fries.

    I came here mostly because in the Shake Shack app, they offered to give me a FREE hamburger if you spend at least $10. Since everything is pretty pricey already and one hamburger is almost $10, you should always be able to reach that spending limit no matter what you order. I'm surprised most people don't use the coupon codes offered in the app to get some free items. Please do yourself a favor and download it so you can get basically a free entre on top of what you would already order. I got a Shack burger, the free avocado bacon burger (using the promo code on the app at the time of this review), and cheese fries. The total for all three was ~$15 after taxes and promo code, which I think is a good deal. I came in just before 12 PM, so it was relatively empty. My order came in about 5 minutes. Staff were very friendly and professional. It wasn't hectic yet, so maybe that was why, but I am sure the staff were prepping for a busy lunch once it reached 12 PM. The bathrooms have lock codes on them and there is no outside sink just for hand washing. There is a filtered water system and dispense ketchup for public use. The place was clean and quiet before the 12 PM rush hour. Summary: - CLEANLINESS. The inside of the restaurant was clean. There weren't too many people when I came in, so it didn't look crowded or overwhelming. - COSTS. $ Affordable. ~$15 if you use promo codes on the Shake shack app. - CUSTOMER SERVICE. The staff was quick, friendly, and professional. - FOOD QUALITY. Way better than McDonalds and other generic fast food chains. - FOOD QUANTITY. Decent portion size. Even better if you get another free hamburger. - WAIT TIME. Five minutes to order two hamburgers and fries. Fast.

    Black Truffle time.

    I've never really been much of a Shake Shack fan, but when my wife and I were hungry and we were walking right by this location, I figured it was time to give it another shot. We came here around 5PM and the place was pretty busy, but the kitchen was working fast, and the staff up front was very friendly. What drew me in was the advertised Black Truffle Burger so I ordered that, a the sunset lemonade, and we split an order of the french fries. The Sunset Lemonade was a mixture of Strawberry, Lemon Juice, and Orange which tasted pretty solid, though nothing above average. The Black Truffle Burger was the first burger I've ever had from Shake Shack that really did it for me! The Gruyere cheese, crispy sweet onions, black truffle oil, and the potato bun that held it all together was absolutely delicious, while the standard crinkle cut french fries were top notch as well. Overall, Shake Shack finally won me over with this trip and I'll definitely be back in the future. This location is so convenient for me, that as long as they keep these special burgers from making some sporadic appearances, I'll be sure to come back in the future!

    Food was fresh. Out of a few menu choices due to a door dash special. Service was friendly and food was served quick

    Mojo S.

    Another fine example of a Shake Shack. Though their food isn't my favorite and it's a little over-hyped, I have never walked out saying this meal is terrible. If anything, I just think their price point is $5-$8 too high for the quality of food. Indeed, no burger, fries, and drink combo should cost $22 before tip--even if it is a "specialty" burger or bbq fries, which was just fries dressed with bbq dry rub and a tub of nacho cheese. That was maybe a $15 meal at best, and even then I'd think the burger was on the scrawny side. If it wasn't for the fact it's nearby the Wiltern, where I was seeing a show, I'd have never come here. That's what I think of Shake Shack; okay in a pinch, but not in my top 20 fast food joints.

    Cold and even colder fries and onion rings! Yuck!

    My bad! Never -Never order fries or onion rings via delivery!!! I have never received a quality product! Arrived ice cold! = in the trash! Bacon Burgers? I'm sure good if hot & fresh, again arrived cold! Not on SS , it's about the delivery app! So $$$ for for not eaten!

    Good burgers, surrounding area was OK to walk around. We ordered on the screen and the food came quickly to the table.

    Believe it or not, I ate fast food. And I wasn't forced to. And I ate it all. It's what I ate before attending a show across the street at The Wiltern. Walked in and ordered via an electronic device or kiosk station. It's where you also grab a number and then find a seat and your order is brought out to you. If you're with others, have them find seating while you place the order. I saw others standing and eating because there's not a lot of places to sit. I can't really comment on the service as I didn't have human interaction other than my order being brought to my table. Not that I needed it - just mentioning it in case you know me and you think I'm getting old and forgetting to mention service. As for the food - for me, high prices for small portion size. $20 for a burger, fries and a drink. See pics. I had hoped that because of the locations and Asians can handle heat - that my order would at least give me a tingle in that department. It didn't. The burger or the fries. Flavor was ok but I wanted to at least feel some semblance of heat - but there was none. I know I've been to a Shake Shack before. I recall feeling the same way back then as I do now. It's ok. But remember, I don't really eat fast food. So, go and enjoy if you do.

    Coming in to a last minute job here in downtown this place was close by. This place had good food and great service. The place can use a retouch of decoration but it is fine and clean. I like that they have safety patrol in the building to keep it safe. The burger and fries were great.

This time, we decided to try the Chinatown location since the traffic going toward Pasadena looked terrible. This location is pretty small and doesn't really seem set up for dining in. It feels more takeout-focused, although they do have some tables outside so we sat there. They didn't have the Mild+ spice level that the Pasadena location offers so I ordered two Mild and one Medium chicken tenders. I also got a side of collard greens after seeing several reviews recommending them. I felt like the spice level was higher at this location than at the Pasadena one. Even the Mild was definitely spicier than I remembered! It still had really good flavor, though. I also really enjoyed the collard greens and was glad I decided to try them. I'm not sure if it's just this location or if all of their locations do this now but they also gave us bottled water for free, which was nice. One thing I really liked about the Chinatown location was the parking. There's a huge parking lot across the street so finding a spot was easy. I prefer the Pasadena location for dining in but its parking lot is very small and finding a spot can be difficult. We'll definitely go back to Howlin' Ray's when we visit LA again next spring. We just haven't decided which location we'll choose next time!

I had been craving their chicken for a while, so I finally came back today. As always, there was a long line. At first, the line wasn't moving at all, which was a little frustrating, but fortunately, it started moving much faster soon after. I hadn't been here in years, so it was nice to come back after such a long time. The chicken is definitely tasty, but unfortunately, they grilled it a little too much this time and some of it was quite burnt. I guess that's partly because they grill the chicken directly on the grill. And, too spicy for me : both chicken and fries. Parking here is always a complete challenge because the parking lot is small and there are usually so many people. But my parking luck is always amazing -- cars somehow always seem to pull out right in front of me! And once again, today, a car pulled out right in front of me, so I was able to get a parking spot easily. It felt like another parking miracle! I asked for a cup of water, and he kindly gave me ice water. I also asked if I could have one extra plastic bag, and he gave me another one without any problem. The staff were very friendly, which was good. However, there's one thing to keep in mind when getting takeout here: the chicken is so oily that the grease can actually soak through and leak all over the plastic bag. You basically have to throw the first plastic bag away afterward. That's why I'm really glad I asked for an extra bag and brought one home with me. It definitely came in handy!

I will say I ordered a combo meal with tater tots, a drink, and a grilled cheese. I wish I didn't get this and only the grilled cheese because the taters and drink made me feel kinda gross. The tater tots were kind of heavy and the drink just tasted like a watered down Icee. The grilled cheese though was sooo yummy. It wasn't really filling for me but it tasted good. I also got a cheeseburger and I liked it a lot. I think if you want to feel full get a cheeseburger than a grilled cheese (of course if you eat meat). Parking was a bit tough but if you place an online order you can just hop in and get the food. The staff was super sweet!

Here we are now in 2026 and I've been seeing a lot of buzz about Pioneer on social media. So, I decided to take a 25 minute drive to give them another try. What I ordered...3-piece chicken dinner leg, thigh, wing and added a breast with a biscuit. Sides I got were the raved about spicy rice and the mash. I also ordered a two-piece fish ala carte. THE SIDES- rice was ok and tasted parboiled, but the flavor was decent. The mash and gravy I would totally skip. It's got that instant mash taste going on, gravy wasn't bad though. The biscuit was soft yet tasted too dense and dry once I bit into it. THE CHICKEN - WAY better than I what remember at the Mid-Wilshire location, and I was quite impressed at how juicy the breast was. Some pieces like the thigh had way too much batter on it and overall, the batter seemed to hold onto the oil making it a little greasy. This is not something I would eat often. This chicken reminded me of Golden Bird and Honey's Kettle. THE FISH - The surprise hit! Loved the fish! The pieces were a nice size with thick pieces of fish and the batter complimented it quite well. The fish is the star of the show! I just wish they had a better tartar sauce, but it also does not need it. Would I go back? If in the area....YES! Let me also add that the customer service was really good too.
