    'Shroom Burger & Cheese Fries
    Dana C.

    Made my stomach queasy very greasy & salty. I had the Korean BBQ, I don't know if they accidentally gave me a cheese burger but it had absolutely no barbecue. My daughter had the Shroom burger it was greasy & had way too much cheese. Cheese fries weren't fresh & the cheese was thick & tasted off. Chocolate shake was thick & good. Bathroom was dirty, paper towels on the floor & the garbage was overflowing. Dining room was okay not really clean a little sticky. Staff brought out our order promptly.

    I loved the Usinger's Jalapeño Cheesy Brat and the triple Chocolate Brownie Shake. The atmosphere was airy and comfortable. The gal taking our order was nice. Two places they could improve on is the condiment bar. All three ketchup containers were empty. Fries just aren't the same without them. Also water cups are very small.

    the burger here was outstanding. i never been to a shake shack before but will seek them out in the future. in my opinion, much better than In and Out burgers. But I also heard from the concierge (from my hotel) that this location is better than others. So, i will locate other Shake Shack locations and experience them myself. But this place served a very very good burger.

    Shake shack is overall great! The food came quickly and seems like good quality. I got a hot chicken sandwich and added lettuce, tomato, and pickles which I would highly recommend! It was spicy but had actual flavor as opposed to just being spicy. The fries were fresh and crispy. I love their cheese sauce but prefer it on the side so the fries don't get soggy. I do think for more of a fast food vibe the price is a bit higher than expected but the service is great and they do bring your food to your table which is nice.

    My family went to this location on Friday August 27th a little after 7p for dinner. This was their first time trying their food & shakes. They all order burgers, fries, shakes & just an heads up everything is À la cart (dinner will be pricey for a family of 3 or more). They were not impressed by their food, shakes & their burgers are small. We were hoping for delicious food due to reviews but was highly disappointed. A tip for the business: when ordering shakes w/ whipped cream please label on shakes so the customer knows who the shakes belongs too.

    The Korean fried chicken sandwich was the only reason for me giving this place a try. It left me a bit disappointed. I guess I had very higher expectations. Ordering and getting our food was a bit longer than I expected, we waiting probably 25-30mins before getting our food, which we order to go. Here's my take on the food. Korean fried chicken sandwich 3/5 Chicken was a bit dried, the sauce didn't wow me, wish it had a little more spicy kick to it. But i doubt it was Koreans that came up with the recipe, correct me if I'm wrong. I've had actually Korean fried chicken and it is bomb but in this sandwich it didn't really work for me. Would I come back it get another one, probably not. Maybe in the future I'll try something else and give another review. For now I'll leave it at this. Fries 2/5 There was nothing special about their fries. Giving my first experience review a 3/5.

    I love me some Shake Shack and can't believe I've held out until now on visiting. We were driving around Milwaukee and just wanted something quick when we got a craving for burgers! Their online order system was really easy and within 12 minutes our food was ready! Inside they had good social distance and everyone wore masks. They placed the to go orders on a table all packed up. I had the cookies and cream shake and boy was it devious and creamy! Their burgers are always fresh tasting and I love the crinkle cut fries!

    Shake Shack burgers are absolutely delicious. They rival and even exceed most pub-style burgers. So are their chicken sandwiches. My only lament is that they did away with the spicy one. :( One thing I really like about the business - at least this one, 3rd Ward Milwaukee - is that the employees really care. You will never, ever find that ubiquitous "this is just a fast-food restaurant so go f--- yourself" attitude here. They care. I've eaten here at least 50 times.

    idk if the brown skin girl with the small burleigh street pony tail and hospital shoes tired of her job because of summer fest or just plain mad at the world because of the cards life dealt her but someone needs to educate her on proper customer service or explain to her that the job she has is meant for college students/ young people that want to make a living for themselves and not people who look 30, with cheap lashes, and bad posture like she was born with scoliosis but she caught an attitude because i asked for my sandwich to be remade after I received it raw and pink and then had the audacity to stop making a shake to chime in a conversation that didn't start with her in the first place to scream "what", and pop her hip with attitude thinking that is supposed to intimidate someone. when she was told by the other employee that it was pink she got extra upset and said they all come pink. so if you don't want E. coli / pink food I would suggest you go to the one in brookfield they come cooked to perfection.

    Easy to order from the kiosk. Plenty of food options. Lots of seating. Downtown location is convenient.

    I LOVE Shake Shack! I'm so happy we finally have a location in Wisconsin. You can't go wrong with a shack burger, cheese fries, and one of their specialty shakes! Their shack burger is a classic burger that is simple yet juicy. I only wish it was bigger. If you're feeling adventurous I would recommend the shack stack. It's their shack burger and shroom burger combined. It's hot and cheesy. Their cheese fries are also generously covered in cheese. I recommend all of their shakes. My favorites have been the holiday sugar cookie and their recent, cookies and cream. The location is great. Parking can be an issue sometimes but not often. People tend to say that Shake Shack is overpriced but I never leave disappointed. I'm definitely willingly to spend the extra couple bucks for fast service and a great burger!

    Who doesn't love themselves a good burger and shake! So coming to shake shack you should already have a good idea what to expect, but if not here is a quick list! Burgers-Good Shakes-Delicious Fries-Really Good Price for portion- Pricey Overall I personally think shake shack is one of the best places for fast food burgers. It is a little pricey for all you get which is a bummer, but I'm never disappointed on the food! This location lives up to the shake shack standards and I have no complaints!

    I like shake shack, but the prices they charge are too high for the little food you get, it's like an upscale Fuddruckers. For example strawberry shake $5.50 really SMH. Also what I noticed about the staff, is that all the black workers are cooks, or working at the cash register. You have 2 white manganger running the show wheres the diversity in management. This is just my observation that's all. THIRD WARD IS THE NEXT (SELMA).

    Just wanted to make a note that as of April 2026, this place is still legit. Great, solid burgers…read more It is still more of a pick-up place rather than a sit down place. There are tables and chairs, but it's tight and when it got busy with people coming to pick up their lunch, would feel weird sitting down to eat. As it was, we just waited to pick up our food, like everyone else. Didn't see a single person actually eating inside, though we saw a LOT of people coming to pick up lunch. Previous review stands (3/25/2022) This is another happy review. I'm happy to report that the burgers have improved significantly since my last review 4 years ago. Korean BBQThey toned down on the shredded cabbage and the sauce in the korean bbq burger. Everything balanced out much better than what I remember, and I could actually taste the kimchi inside this time. The meat was cooked to a nice medium, and travelled well in our to-go order. Soft Shell CrabThey put two whole deep fried soft shell crabs in one burger. Topped off with a lot of arugula, bacon and tomatoes. It was good, but not quite as balanced out as the Korean BBQ burger. I'm not quite sure what it is... Lacking some sauce?Overall, the place had some great burgers and I would definitely go back more often that I have recently. But there's a little bit missing still to give it a whopping 5 star review. Plus the buns were really bready... a little less dough would have been nice. And on the downside... the fries weren't awesome. They were ok. But felt more like baked fries than deep fried. In any case, I love improvements and having great joints in my neighborhood. Thank you Crave Cafe!

    Crave has the best burger in Milwaukee. Having tried nearly every great burger in the city, hands…read moredown crave is the place. The service is always very quick. Great hole in the wall vibe, the best things often are in the place you'd overlook- also outdoor seating is great during summer.

    Still love their chicken, especially their whole wings and leg/thighs. I miss the ginger flakes…read morethey used to have, but it is what it is. Lemon pepper salt works great. This last time, we got the 50 piece whole wings ($58.99) and 34 piece legs and thighs ($47.99). Enough to feed 20 people. With this order, we got 7 little packets of coleslaw. Hubby keeps picking up and forgetting to check, but we really needed more coleslaw. They also forgot bread. But a lot of hot sauce. One time, we got the 15 piece whole wings and 8 piece legs and thighs. It was plenty to feed two men and one gal with big appetites. Should be plenty for 4 people with big appetites, with leftovers. I generally get a lot so we can have leftovers. **On many occasions, they forget to pack coleslaw and bread. Check! 7/2024- Fried gizzard on this last pick up order. A+! Notes: - fried whole wings - deliciously golden, not too salty. They are whole wings, in 3 sections, which is nice if you like the wing tip area like I do. - potato wedges - these are more expensive than regular fries, but there's no Merrit in paying the extra. Regular fries are pretty good, and the wedges are subpar. - don't get lost. They are located right on the corner of Teutonia and Good Hope, inside the gas station. (and don't get gas here - it's cheaper just down the street)

    Ohhhh No! I ordered a Greek salad for $12. This is what I received! Iceberg with barely any…read moretoppings! The feta was sliced in half (with less than 5 total and two olives! And the taste was terrible! Bad lettuce with brown juice on the bottom! Not balsamic... EXPIRED vegetable taste! Who SKIMPS on a basic salad and overprices it?! THIS PLACE! DOESNT accommodate meatless options. Not vegan/vegetarian friendly.
