| - I sort of want to give this place a 4 star, but since this was my first time, I'm reserving my opinion until I try it again (which I will). This is the Shake Shack attached to the NYNY hotel/casino. I was there during the Golden Knights playoffs (which I hadn't even known about) and omg, this place was insanely busy. Swarms of people in and out! And being right near TMobile arena where the game was held, you can imagine how crazy it was in there! But hey, that's Vegas!
Anyway, after surviving the huge onslaught of people, I finally got a cheeseburger and fries. Most burgers these days are pretty big, so I assumed (wrongly) that it would be fine to share with my guest who was with me. Nope! This is a small burger, so be forewarned if you want something that's a normal size, this one is small.. It also ain't cheap. But I guess it is what it is these days, esp. on the strip.
The crinkle cut fries were good, too.
The good news is that I really liked this burger. I wasn't too thrilled with the big piece of lettuce they put on it, but it's the meat on the burger itself that I really liked, probably better than any other fast food burger I've tried and I've tried a lot. The bun was cold but that may just have been due to the huge rush and crowd of people in there. Who knows? That was a crazy location!
I also tried their frozen custard. Never having had it before, I didn't know what to expect. My guest has had it numerous other places (out of state), and says this was just okay, she's had better. A good frozen custard should have a more "eggy" flavor, which this didn't have. (in other words, it should actually taste like custard that's been frozen). This tasted to me like very high quality homemade vanilla ice cream, which certainly isn't a bad thing! I enjoyed it, but probably wouldn't get it again.
This Shake Shack has an indoor and outdoor seating area. We ate outside because inside was a madhouse! We ate at around 4pm and it was still fairly hot outside (and this wasn't even summer yet!). Soooo, not sure how appealing the outdoor area will be once summer really kicks in.
I definitely am going to try another of their burgers at a different location in town, just to see how it goes. But I may have to order two to get a decent amount of food, cuz these are just too small for my tastes! (and I'm not a big eater!). Shake Shack, make your wonderful burgers bigger! I'm glad I tried this place, always fun to try new burger joints! For as crazy as the crowd in there was, the service proceeded fairly smoothly. Hats off to the staff in there, they keep it moving!
