After being in a different country for months (I am in a small city by the coast of Turkey, just…read morecoming to visit Istanbul) you could imagine my excitement seeing Shake Shack of all restaurants! I was craving a delicious burger and Shake Shack will always be good for that. It tastes exactly like the ones back home and has the same overpriced prices but it is what it is. Shake Shack's taste is unmatched and has such a fresh and juicy taste that I'll always put them at the top of my list for burger places. I am a fan of other items on the menu which I got but are not pictured- including the cranberry lemonade, cheese fries, and Oreo concrete. The staff was super friendly and did their best translating all the concretes on the menu to me since the menu was in Turkish. The wait wasn't too long and the food was hot and super fresh. Even if you're not craving American food but haven't been here I'd suggest you just try it!

Very clean bathrooms were a bonus downstairs also. Food was served quickly with an excellent portion size. I ordered the beef wrap and fries with a Pepsi. It was supposed to have been a small lunch, but was actually very filling. I will say the meat could've used a sauce. Something to cut all the grease that it was covered in. I did try someone else's chicken and it was even more in need of a flavorful sauce. That being said, it is served with ketchup and mayonnaise, which is familiar to us, but not the sauce I had in mind. Overall though, great first stop.

The service here is slow and they take a while to get your food! To make it worse you can just see…read morethem standing there talking amongst themselves, not even preparing the food. I have even ordered food from a food delivery app out here in Turkey and they said they ran out of Whoppers at 1 pm in the afternoon but when I go there, they are cooking the Whoppers for people in the establishment. They get a thumbs down from me! Don't think I'm judging off of just one time, I have been here a few times

Usually I steer away from fast food, but I was starving and needed something to hold me until…read moredinner. I decided to check out the food court. After circling around twice, I settled on KFC because the Twister wrap looked good. The line was a bit confusing so I did not know where to wait to order, so that was my fault. When it was my turn, I showed the employee a picture of Twister on the menu. He then asked me in Turkish if I wanted drink and fries, I think, but I didn't really understand, so I gestured no. He proceeded with giving me a cup of soda and fries. I am not sure if the wrap comes with it, but I was thankful. The order was very quick and I said thank-you in my broken Turkish to the same gentleman. When I tried the wrap it was delicious! The chicken was tender inside and the batter was crispy outside. I liked the combination of the dressing inside with the overall food texture. Fries were crispy and pretty light in my opinion. And soda is--well--soda. After eating, I used Google Translate to help me translate from English to Turkish and wrote a thank-you note on a napkin for the employees. I thanked them for being nice and helping me with my first Turkish KFC order. They smiled and were very happy, gave me thumbs up.
