| - I've had several missed opportunities of going to Shake Shack in Vegas, so I was on a mission to try Shake Shack on my trip to AZ. After exploring Papago park, my friends and I headed to this Phoenix location.
I ordered the single ShackBurger, a side of bacon and cheese fries, and the ShackMeister Ale. For a standard cheeseburger, the ShackBurger was excellent. The bun was soft like a brioche, but it held together very well. I noticed that the bun wasn't sliced all the way through, so that may be part of the reason why the burger didn't slop around and fall apart. The burger wasn't messy either, so the bread didn't get soggy. I couldn't put my finger on what was in the ShackSauce, but it was good. The burger was juicy and packed on flavor. I totally enjoyed the bacon and cheese fries. I hate the kind of nacho cheese sauce that comes out of a can, but I could tell that the cheese sauce used on the fries was a mixed blend of better quality cheeses. I was a huge fan of Shake Shack's crinkle cut fries in general.
My biggest regret is not being able to have Shake Shack whenever I want. It could never replace In n Out for me, but it's certainly better than Smashburger. Why isn't there a Shake Shack in the Bay Area? Please come to San Jose.
