    Chicken burger and shake burger
    Katherine N.

    Shake Shack at Columbus Circle is exactly what you'd expect from a fast-casual legend posted up in one of Manhattan's busiest corners: reliably good food, slightly chaotic energy, and a race to find a seat that feels more intense than ordering. I went with the Chicken Shack, the ShackBurger, and their classic crinkle-cut fries--because sometimes, you just need to cover your bases. The food? Very solid. The chicken was crispy and juicy, the burger was fresh with that signature soft bun, and the fries were golden, seasoned, and perfectly crinkled. Shake Shack knows what they're doing when it comes to flavor and texture. But this particular location has its challenges. It's tucked inside the Time Warner Center, which means limited seating and a mall food court atmosphere, if you're lucky enough to snag a table at all. Best strategy? Get it to go and take your feast to Central Park--it's just across the street, and the view is far better than mall lighting. Service was a bit slow for fast food, but with the foot traffic here, it's understandable--if slightly frustrating when you're already hungry. All in all: Shake Shack still delivers on taste, but this location is more about convenience than comfort. Go for the food, skip the seating, and let Central Park upgrade your dining experience.

    We ordered double cheeseburgers with shake shack sauce (YUM), fries, and a strawberry lemonade 50/50. Great lunch meal and very satisfying! You can customize the burger. Credit Only - order on the kisok and they call your name when it's ready. There is a decent amount of seating. Located on the third floor of Columbus circle mall.

    What's there not to love about Shake Shack? You can't go wrong with a Shackburger, fries, and a shake. I've been to a lot of Shake Shacks and this one was one of the nicest ones I've been to. It is located inside the mall near Columbus Circle. The seated is a little limited for a busy lunch crowd. The inside of the restaurant was clean. The service was quick and the food came out fresh and hot. I had their Shackburger. The potato bun was soft. The burger had great flavor with their shack sauce. I shared a serving of fries and also split a strawberry shake. The fries were piping hot and slightly crispy so they were extra tasty. This was my first time having the strawberry shake. The strawberry shake was creamy and refreshing. My visit to this Shake Shack was awesome. Great location and delicious food!

    the food here is as good as any shake shack but you will have to fight someone for seating. the place is packed and there are about 10 tables so it makes for a lot of people standing around with food waiting to sit down. it's a nice place but it's better suited for takeout

    Vanilla Milkshake, Regular Fries, Single Shack Burger
    Leenzie B.

    I went here yesterday for dinner before my stroll around Central Park. I ordered my food ahead of time, picked it up, and ate inside. The staff were friendly, the ambiance was nice & clean. I was able to find a table to eat my food. I got the single shack burger, regular fries, and the vanilla milkshake. My only complaint was that the bun on the burger was ripped on the side and the fries were kind of dry. Other than that I would give Shake Shack another try

    4.5 Honestly, surprised no one has reviewed this location yet as they've been open for a bit. Located inside the Columbus Circle building on the 2nd floor, this is one of the nicer Shake Shacks in Manhattan. It's not very large with only a few tables but it is pristine and was hardly ever busy the few times I went after work. You can order at kiosks to the left of the entrance or at the counter. They had staff greeting customers, helping at the kiosks, delivering food at the tables and cleaning up. It was great. There were even staff walking around checking in on diners. During my last visit, I ordered the Black Truffle Burger, Truffle Fries and small soda. The burger had Gruyere cheese, truffle sauce and crispy fried onions. I loved the crispy fried onions which gave the burger that nice crunchy texture. The truffle sauce smelled heavenly and was not too overpowering. The fries were perfectly fried, topped with cheese and came with a side of truffle mayo. The truffle mayo was really addicting, and I dunked both my fries and burger in it as I ate. So good! It's nice eating at this location as it (usually) isn't overcrowded, providing a more comfortable setting to enjoy a burger and fries after a long day. For me, the cleanliness, proactive staff and the atmosphere really added to the overall dining experience.

    Dubai chocolate shake
    Taylee M.

    Okay, I finally tried the Dubai Shake Shack shake after three failed attempts at other locations. Here's the problem: it's actually sooo good!!! The pistachio and knafeh is perfect with the crackling chocolate shell. It was worth being at Columbus circle by 9:45am! Super clean store front and the workers were just as excited for me to try it. Please note that this shake is at very limited locations and only 25 a day, so come early!

    The other day, I stopped into the new Shake Shack at Columbus Circle, to check it out. I frequently shop at the Whole Foods (on the ground floor), so the idea of a Shake Shack nearby - on the second floor - was definitely a joyful one! And it turned out to be even better than I thought it would be! Yay! The staff was nice, the place was clean, the line was reasonable and the food was delicious. I ordered a Veggie Shack plus French fries, and everything tasted fresh and on point. My only complaint was that the music could have been a little softer; yet - to be fair - I'm sensitive to sound, so maybe it was just me. I didn't bring it up, as others around me didn't seem bothered by it. If you find yourself hungry after an afternoon of walking in Central Park or an evening of shopping at Whole Foods, then come upstairs for a delightful treat. : ) My Best, Kat

    So after having lunch in New York's Chinatown and taking a stroll through little Italy, we took a…read moresubway ride to New York's K-Town or aka as Korea Town. Upon arrival we noticed the difference in crowds. Not as busy and packed sidewalks. Also it was a lot cleaner than Chinatown. Since we just ate at C-Town, it was time to find a good dessert place in K-Town. So we walked and we walked until I saw a banner sign showing shaved ice desserts. Then I noticed the name of the business is Grace Street. How fitting, because that is my wife's name. So we went in and what caught my eye was a mango shaved ice with mangoes, mochi, strawberries, and condensed milk, however I was over ruled by my wife and we went with the black sesame and mochi and condensed milk. It also had red bean, but that had to be on the side, since that gives me gout. Such nice staff taking orders and we went into the dining area to find a seat. What a large spacious area with many tables. Our order came out and it looked so good. The black sesame shaved ice or snow as it's also referred to as, was perfectly sweetened by the condensed milk and the chewy mochi. Definitely cleaned my pallet from our Chinese lunch and it helped cool me down from the New York heat. We got water, but there was no ice offered, so I asked one of the workers and he was kind enough to get me some. We are through that dessert like, if we didn't finish it fast, it was going to melt. We did not give it a chance to melt one bit. The staff here are efficient, as they saw we were done, they asked to clear our dessert bowl away. It was a nice experience even if it was just dessert. They definitely had more dessert options to offer, but i

The generous serving had creamy, silky layers and was easily enough for the two of us to share. Sweet, light, and refreshing. Plenty of seating, generous portions, and a stop here never disappoints! Located on 32nd St, between Broadway & 5th Ave Train: 34 St-Herald Sq (N/Q/R/W); also an easy walk from Penn Station. Overall, a great casual dessert stop after exploring K-Town, Midtown or nearby Chelsea.

    Amazing Ice Cream Shop on East 10th Street off 3rd Avenue…read more Awesome selection of ice cream and gelato in traditional and unique flavors, many Asian, like lavender, ginger, etc. They have a frequent visitor membership rewards and bet there are many, like myself, who take advantage given frequent visits year round. The service is always great. Sometimes the Moms and Dads visiting their kids at NYU clog up the front with a LOT of questions, but usually very quick for a large waffle cone with 2 scoops. If dining at other venues in the area, skip desert and stop here for a special treat!

Don't remember what I had the previous 20+ years I went there after a group dinner. This time I was influenced & specifically took a bus over for their corn ice cream. It's STILL the summer of corn. Prices are now average - good for a scoop $7.50 & the portion is good compared to other craft ice cream shops in LES. The corn flavor was good. Medium flavor with that corn sweetness. The quality of the ice cream was excellent, medium creamy & very smooth with the teeniest bit of corn blended. Sampled the hazelnut which was great also - like a thick gelato. Would like to try the lychee next time. They have probably 20 different flavors, displayed well. The staff is patient & very nice. The space is very big for a business in the East Village with mostly a waiting area. 4-5 seats are up front & they set up a few plastic chairs on the side. On a 90°F day, the shop was filled with customers & groups. A stantion at the door with directions for 2 lines would help manage things better.
