Such a bummer to hear this Shake Shack location is closing. Despite the negative reviews here, I've actually had friendly and efficient service at this location especially since I order ahead on the app. Alas, more collateral damage from the emptying mall. Feels like the new owners are trying to completely clear it out ahead of future plans but till then, I hope Shake Shack finds another downtown location. read more

Came here for the Dubai chocolate milkshake (wish there was more pistachio flavor, but otherwise it was nice and not too sweet) and the banana pudding milkshake (not my vibe; something tasted...almost almondy about) One of the milkshakes was way more melted than the other Service was relatively fast for the crowd assembled Tables definitely could use more routine wipe-downs read more

I recommend going here only because it's one of the two only places in the former San Francisco Westfield mall food court that hasn't closed down yet. It's what you expect from a Shake Shack, I guess. It's pretty good food but pretty expensive. If you have the app, I recommend using it to place your order if there happen to be any promo codes you can use to get a discount on food. Otherwise, your only other option in this mall is Panda Express. read more

With shake in the name, Shake Shack shakes should be good right? I was in the mood for a sweet drink while shopping and saw that there was a variety of limited edition shakes on the menu. After ordering a Cherry Blossom Shake ($6.99 + tax), I waited for a text, and picked up my shake from a staff member ~5 minutes later. +Hand-spun, it was creamy yet refreshing: Not as heavy or cloyingly sweet as other milkshakes I've tried. +Whipped cream was airy and milky +Sprinkles on top were crunchy +Compostable cup and straw were durable. -Flavor reminded me of almonds. Other items I tried during my previous visit: +Fries -ShackBurger Side notes: 1.) Located on the Concourse Level of the former Westfield San Francisco Centre 2.) Walking distance from Powell Station, which is connected to the mall *Verdict: Not my fave spot for burgers, but their shake was pretty good. read more

Ordered online and picked up; my order was ready when I arrived. The store is located inside the San Francisco Centre's concourse-level food court. Efficient service and a satisfying meal! Had the Shake Shack burger--Angus beef cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, and ShackSauce on a toasted potato bun--fries, and the Chocolate Yule Log Shake made with chocolate frozen custard, chocolate cake pieces, whipped cream, cake crumbles, and festive sprinkles. read more

Give SS some love. The Centre looks dismal. SS is still standing. If you have their app, highly recommend downloading it. On their app, you can customize your own burger. Add or not add, lettuce, onions, pickles, or dressing. I asked for no salt on my fries. You get sodas for $1, shakes for $5 (not holiday ones), crinkle fries $3. They are featuring this massive "big Shake Shack" burger with two patties for $9.95. I ordered the strawberry shake, smoke burger (buy one get one free), crinkle fries without salt. Fries were so darn good. Melty in the inside. Once cold, not good. Smoke has real bacon. All good enough for two. What a deal. so fresh. Service was fastish. They have lots of pick ups. I do feel bad. No cashier, so two people were struggling to order on their computer. I used to struggle with their app, but I finally got the hang of it. In the past, I always had to scroll down to all the California shops to find the SF ones. read more

This is my first experience at a shake shack. received half of a grilled cheese sandwich and seven onion rings for $21.32. Shake shack is a poor value for your money. I did appreciate the grilling of the sandwich and the chocolate shake was OK. I would like to point out all the workers were working very hard. read more

Shake Shack - Half of a grilled cheese sandwich and seven onion rings - Burgers Near Me - San Francisco, California

I order from here all the time tbh. Their buns are always pretty soft and the patties are usually juicy, though every now and then they're a little overcooked. Their crinkle fries are great too, but they can be hit or miss depending on the day (sometimes they can be pretty dry). Overall, it's not the most consistent spot, but when they nail it, it's exactly what I'm craving. read more

8:3/2023 Last time I had a shake shack was the last trip in Vegas..(at the airport).. My youngest loves the chicken sandwich.. I just went with a single shack and fries. Different set up, as you walk up to the kiosk and order yourself.. Only interaction is when you go and pick your order up.. Can't resist krinkle cut fries and the were perfect. read more

Truffle burger and tiramisu shake downstairs. First off, service is super slow....and usually there are a couple of people in line because thus is one of the more popular food court places. My burger tasted like it had been sitting for a while. Cold onion rings on the truffle burger, and a bit oily. Tiramisu shake was kind of coffee tasting with chunks of soggy cake pieces. Shake shack you can definitely do better! read more

I love their burgers! I always order ahead thru the app so I never have to wait unless I arrive earlier than I scheduled it for pick up. It's always been ready on time. Their meat patties is juicy and moist and flavorful. I just wish the app allowed me to add extra lettuce and tomatoes even if it was an additional charge. I wish they would bring back the black truffle burger but their standard shake shack burger is pretty solid. read more

I'll tell you an old love story that started in New York. A young man staying in Hell's Kitchen walked into a burger joint. At this burger spot they smashed the patties flat and everything from the burger, fries, to shakes were amazing. He loved everything about it so much, he went back the next day. Even when he went to what was newly built at the time, Citi Field to see the Mets play baseball, that same burger joint was located in center field and he loved it so much that he waited in line two innings just to get his hands on that burger. But in the words of Earth, Wind, and Fire: "Somethin' happened along the way, What used to be happy was sad Somethin' happened along the way And yesterday was all we had And oh, after the love has gone" The chain continued to grow. Expanding throughout the world from Dubai to Singapore. With locations popping up all over the Bay Area, Stanford, Oakland, Marin, to Westfield Mall in SF. But that first love is gone. The burger now feels more like a slider. The shake is more like chocolate milk. Even the new chicken sandwich is just lackluster. It just doesn't have the magic that is had before. It changed when they expanded out of New York. Something happened along the way and yesterday was all we had. And oh, after the love has gone. read more

Super busy location located in the central of SF. It's in the basement level of the mall right by the food court. No matter what day I come, there's always a long line so I recommend ordered through the app. They have a couple iPad screens you can self-order from. The food is on par with other locations, I usually get the normal cheeseburger and fries. read more

A very busy location! Be prepared for a wait. But service was very good here. During a busy weekday lunch hour, we ordered quickly with a human (there was other lines for kiosk ordering), and my friend and I enjoyed a hot and delicious Animal Style Burger, a Avo Chicken Bacon Burger and signature crinkle fries -- along with a dairy-free chocolate shake. Everything was great! read more

As someone who doesn't have a Shake Shack location nearby, I try to get my fix whenever I am traveling. I ordered my usual, the Shack Burger -- a hearty Angus beef cheeseburger topped with flavorful applewood-smoked bacon, chopped cherry peppers for a hint of tanginess, and their signature ShackSauce, all nestled between a toasted potato bun. It's a classic burger done right and it never disappoints. To accompany my burger, I indulged in the bacon cheese fries. These crispy crinkle-cut fries were generously topped with a creamy cheese sauce and more of that delicious applewood-smoked bacon. It's the ultimate comfort food with a tasty twist. One thing I really appreciate about Shake Shack is their efficient ordering system. Utilizing the counter tablets makes the process quick and easy, ensuring that I can get my food without any hassle. Plus, being able to request a text when my order is ready is a convenient touch. The food was prepared swiftly, which meant I didn't have to wait long to satisfy my cravings. And when it came time to enjoy my meal, I found plenty of clean seating available in the food court area. The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, perfect for enjoying a meal with friends or flying solo. My experience at Shake Shack in San Francisco Centre was just what I was craving. Delicious comfort food, and efficient service--it's everything you could want in a burger joint. read more

This place is horrible! I ordered a well done cheese burger and got a burger cooked medium with a soaking wet, soggy bottom bun. When I brought it up to the counter and complained instead of asking me if I want another one or a refund, she asked the cook for another bun. I told her it's fine. You could keep the bun and the nasty burger, that was foul, and I won't be coming back... she had no response. This is unacceptable and I will not be coming back. Now I know why no one is ever eating here, it's always dead. I only tried it because blondes pizza is gone. Nothing in this mall is good anymore. Do yourself a favor and go to Melt or Super Duper Burger! read more

This was my first Shake Shack experience; terribly late to the party in 2022. Hibiscus Lemonade (A) - A very refreshing lemonade for $4! This is really nice and refreshing, and the flavor is elevated from the classic lemonade with a floral hibiscus flavor that is not overpowering. Lettuce Wrap Disaster (F) - The atrocity shown in the 1st image is an order that was horribly messed up. The food was cold, lettuce wrapping a burger just doesn't work, but shake shack has good customer service and I was able to give a second shot. Fried Chicken Sandwich (C) - The fried chicken sandwich was better than Chick Fil A as the lettuce added some freshness to cut from pure fried chicken. The chicken itself is tender, which is not an easy feat to accomplish. I think some heart or acid would help lift this burger though. read more

Who doesn't like shake shack, love the location by SanFrancisco shopping center, is by the bake cheese tart and zero drink! Service so efficient, wait is not long! Got my fries with spicy dipping sauce, and the shroom burger and the black and white milk shake can't go wrong! Love the texture of the fried mushroom with burger, with extra spicy sauce is out of this world! Ambiance is great, very bright and open area if we need to keep distance while waiting. There are 2 tablets for order by the counter. read more

I was really looking forward to trying out Shake Shack since people hold it in such high regard with the likes of In N Out and Whataburger. I decided to go simple and ordered the shackburger, some crinkle-cut fries, and a vanilla milkshake. I had mixed feelings afterward. The patty in the burger WAS really good. It was juicy and flavorful. Everything you could want from a patty. However, the portion was really small for a $6 burger, it felt more like a slider. The same goes for the fries and the milkshake. The fries were solid and crispy, the box was a bit small but there's not much else to say about them. The milkshake tasted just like the one from Jack in the Box but it was half the size and about the same price. The fries here are a lot better than In N Out's, but that isn't really saying much because that should be a general standard for all fries. The patty was a whole lot better than the ones at In N Out, but In N Out gives about the same portion but at a lower price with more lettuce and tomatoes. Overall, everything was really tasty but the price was high and I wish the portions were bigger. read more

Food: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 2/5 Overall: Pretty standard fare on the burger but be sure to get the frozen custard. The extended review... Food: Shack Burger - 3/5 - The burger is a step up from normal fast food but overall a pretty standard burger. Cheese Fries - 3.5/5 - Cheese and Bacon over fries...hello yes. The only thing is that you only get a little bit on the top of the pile but when you get to the bottom there's no more topping. Chocolate Frozen Custard - 4/5 - Be sure to get this. It's a denser ice cream and very creamy. Service: 3/5 - Not much service since you really just order on the tablet. Ambiance: 2/5 - It's in the Westfield mall...what else can I say. There's always some homeless walking around begging for change. read more

In the Westfield San Francisco Centre, Shake Shack was one of the more popular places to eat in the mall. The food is tasty and the shakes are good-- but unfortunately that doesn't equate to a perfect review. Shake Shack was starting to get busy once I arrived, so I used the Kiosk instead of talking to the cashier. My first issue is that if you order by Kiosk, they're supposed to text you once your order is ready (they did not). Even for those who didn't order by Kiosk, the service was extremely slow. My shake was so good! I got the Oreo Cookie Funnel Cake (Limited Edition). My friends got regular shakes and they tasted good too (but nothing special). The Chicken Sandwiches are good! The Portabello Mushroom burger was also surprisingly good; it was filled with cheese. This brings me to my second issue: the portions are small. It doesn't take a lot to fill me up, but my sandwich was so tiny and so not worth the price. I wouldn't have gotten it if I knew I could finish it in three large bites. Here's a summary of my review in case it's too long: Good food, good shakes. Slow service, the Kiosk will NOT text you, and portions are terribly small. Hope this is helpful! read more

Food was great here, ordered on the Doordash app and the food came quickly. I did have to reheat the burgers (just because of delivery time). Overall a solid choice for a chill night in. The bacon cheese fries were very good. First time having it and it was amazing. The burger was cooked to perfection and still tasted amazing even after the delivery time. Would recommend going in person to get the burger and fries fresh, but still a great choice. read more

On 8/24/23 around 1:15pm. First time in San Fran with the wifey & we came into the mall for a quick bite. We decided to try the Shack. The Original Shack for me & the wife got the Avocado Chicken. The food was great. The best part was the service. The young brother man with the glasses (Amir) up front helped us with the special request for a coke float instead of root beer. (with a smile) While I was eating the spicy cheese fries, I wanted to get some additional ranch. While waiting in line to pay cash I was watching the asian lady (Edna) cashier go above & beyond to help a couple with paying for their order. She was nice enough to count out the $10 in quarter they were trying to use. The whole time, she was smiling, as well. Those 2 employees are true diamonds & represent the business very well. If I could, I would take em back to Vegas. P.S. She didn't charge me for the ranch like the other places. The tip was well deserved. Keep up the good work !!! read more

Burger that made me starving after 1 hour. Diet Coke that tasted like tap water. Got the text message that my food was ready to pick up, but I waited 10-15 mins more regardless. 8 employees and half were standing around and chatting. Definitely below the average Shake Shack branch. read more

After visiting four different shake shack locations, including this one, I can say confidently that this one is the worst location by far. -Unseasoned fries -chicken bites batter was not fried the same way the other locations do it -Both burgers we ordered were smushed and uneven despite us dining in, so the only travel taking place is from counter to table. No delivery driver to blame here. -Premium drink was 2/3 ice Horrendous. Shake Shack is already lagging behind super duper in general but at least the other locations execute the food correctly. read more

Shake Shacks can be hit or miss depending on the location. This one is a new location in the food court of Westfield mall and based on my visit there, it seems to be one of the good ones. We got the hot honey chicken sandwich (a new item on the menu), cheese fries and a smoke shack. All the food turned out great. Even though it was a busy time, we didn't wait very long and the staff was friendly and asked if we wanted extra ketchup, napkins etc. The new hot honey sauce is a really great addition to an already solid chicken sandwich. We'll definitely be back to try more items of the special menu like hot honey bites, fries etc. Note that this location closes early (6pm) and they won't take any orders after that. Not sure why they close early when many of the other places in the food court are still open and other shake shacks can stay open till 10pm. read more

Yes, I remember lining up at their original location in Madison Square Park in NYC. Now that I no longer live in NYC, I'm glad to find an outlet conveniently located in the center of San Francisco. It does feel a little more chain-like, but the Shake Stack burger is still amazing! Shake Stack: This is what keeps me coming back to Shake Shack. That crispy puck filled with tender portobello and a melty cheese. A perfect topping to a smashed cheeseburger. The texture contrasts and umami tones are just out of control! I've never deconstructed the burger nor had a regular cheeseburger here, but I have had some bites without the fried masterpiece and then the plain cheeseburger feels just ordinary. So the combination is key! Bacon Cheese Fries: Their cheese sauce is some of the best I've had. It tastes like real cheese, not Velveeta. And it continues to be melty and gooey the whole time, unlike some cheese fries which just get shredded cheese on top that eventually congeals. Plus the crinkle fries are perfectly shaped to carry extra cheese in their crispy ridges. A great combination. Had some bacon on top this time, which was smoky and in thin pieces. It was fine, but I kinda prefer just the cheese so I can really focus on it. Piña Berry Punch: Pretty meh. Kinda tasted like unrefrigerated bottled juice blend you'd find at the grocery store. I didn't really taste any specific berry distinctly nor was the pineapple that strong. I get that most people order the eponymous shakes here, but with the heavy burger & cheese fries it's really an either/or situation for me. Maybe next time I swing by I'll just get a shake, since their juice drinks are kinda boring. read more

This location is SO BUSY that they tend to run out of stuff. I have been here a few times, and some times they have been short on Ketchup, other times short of other condiments. Today when I placed my mobile order, the only choice for drinks were water, sodas from the machine or iced tea! There was no lemonade. Tip: You can order much faster from the mobile app, and you can skip the huge line for ordering at the kiosk. Service tends to be very rushed since they are extremely busy. read more
