| - So I wanted to give Shake Shack another chance since I hear my friends raving about it all the time. I hated it when we went to the location at New York New York casino because it was just so oily and it was so crowded. I had a completely different experience here.
Located at the District at Green Valley Ranch, it sits at the corner right across from REI. The bf, myself and my son came in for lunch on a Tuesday afternoon and it was not busy at all. There was lots of seating, but the dining area is a little small. I can see this place packed on weekends. The restaurant was clean, employees were friendly and our food came out fairly quickly.
Here's the rundown on the food. I was expecting a greasy mess like last time, but not here. I ordered the Chick'n Shack and the bf ordered the double burger. My chicken was fresh, hot and crispy. The pickles in my burger were nice and thick, not the flimsy pickles at other places. I took a bite of my bf's burger and it was equally as tasty. The meat wasn't oily at all. The buns for these burgers were so soft. Our fries had the perfect crunch and even drenched in cheese, they were still good. I just wish the burgers were a little bigger. I unwrapped my burger and my first response was "that's it?" Don't get me wrong, my food was pretty tasty, but I just wish there was more of it. Especially for the price, $27 for 2 small burgers, fries and a small drink is a bit steep.
I'm glad this location changed my mind about Shake Shack. They do have good burgers and fries. I'm not sure if I'll be eating here often, but I wouldn't be opposed if someone suggested it.
