I don't eat burgers that often, I try to keep healthy. However, these burgers are worth the calories. This was my first time here at Shake Shack and I would go back in a heart beat. There was a line the whole time we were there eating, but it moves fast so don't let the line discourage your visit.

Went to the one on Madison Avenue, on the recomendation of a tour guide. And what a good tip it proved to be. We couldn't believe the line that this place had. The line moved quickly and we placed our order which took a few minutes. We managed to find a table and tucked into a great burger and shake.... More

Excellent for a quick bite to eat/fast food restaurant. Great, tasty burgers and fantastic shakes/concretes. Busy but we timed it just right and got served and seated pretty quickly. Better than McDonalds I'd say!

Shake shack is great fast food, and it seems everyone knows it! There's always a line up but it moves fairly quickly and the food is always worth it - it almost adds to the experience Definitely give it a visit if you're in New York!

Not sure I get what all the hype is for this place. The burger was good but I found the menu to be limited and not that great. I'm probably the only person in my group that felt this way. I say give it a try as you may truly enjoy it.

There is not a single outlet in Malaysia, but Shake Shack, a small up-and-coming chain of restaurants selling hamburger in the US, was recently highlighted in the Malaysian mass media. During our current visit to the Big Apple, purely out of curiosity, we made it a point to patronize the fast food restaurant on our way to the Central Park... More

Crazy crowds, but good burgers for a decent price. B prepared to wait, and take out rather than order in. Definitely a NYC experience!

No frills, just good old classic burgers, Frys, shakes. Almost always a line around the corner, but worth the wait. Good hot chocolate on those cold days or you can grab a local draft beer while waiting for your order.

When we heard about this place specially for the burgers... we were all excited to enjoy New York Style burger... But let me tell you, there are really better options than this over hyped joint or rather chain. It was July, very hot and humid... After 1 hour waiting / standing in the queue our expectations grew.., About after 20... More
