| - My first experience with Shake Shack was very shortly after this location in Downtown Summerlin opened in October 2015. I've been back quite a few times since, and see no reason why I won't continue to frequent this place for its tasty burgers and desserts.
The restaurant has a clean, semi-urban feel with the cool addition of tables made from the wood of old bowling lanes. It can be a touch noisy when the place is packed, but overall not bad. When I've been at lunchtime, I've noticed this is a favorite place for the kids from one of the nearby middle/high school to gather and eat. Kind of cool, given the relationship Shake Shack has with Communities In Schools. More on that in a minute. Most of the seating is inside, but when the weather permits, there's a decent amount of outdoor seating too. You admire the gigantic menu on the wall when you walk in, order at the counter, take your number and find a seat. Depending on how busy it is, they'll either call you up when your food is ready, or just might bring it to your table.
The burgers are all made from 100% hormone and antibiotic-free Angus beef, and there are vegetarian options on the menu too. After trying the SmokeShack, the ShackBurger and the 'Shroom Burger (the vegetarian burger option), my solid favorite is the SmokeShack. You can't go wrong with a bacon cheeseburger topped with chopped cherry peppers to add a mild zing. Oh, be sure to get it as a double. I've also tried the Shack-cago Dog. While it's not thoroughly traditional, it's definitely a good variation on the Chicago style hotdog. If you want a Chicago dog and can't find one prepared in the traditional way, this will definitely do.
Then there's dessert, which can be described in just three words: frozen custard concretes! If you're unfamiliar, a concrete is basically a shake that's too thick to drink through a straw. Definitely try the totally addicting Summerlin S'mores. To make a great place even better, this location is partnered with Communities In Schools (Nevada) and makes a small donation from the sale of every Summerlin S'mores, Red Velvet Rocks, and Crunch-stellation concrete. So eat dessert and contribute to keeping kids in school! (It makes the whole dessert thing guilt-free.)
Parking: this location is in Downtown Summerlin, so there's no shortage of parking lots. If you're pressed for time or don't want a long walk, be sure to park on the north end of the shopping center. Now go eat!
