Yummy yummy!!! Everything was delish. I got a single shack burger and cheese fries, and the cheese sauce on the fries had surprisingly great flavor!! I really enjoyed it but I am sad to say the amount of cheese on the fries was kinda sad if I’m paying extra for cheese I want more than just a little squirt. But other than that everything was so yummy!! Definitely one of my fav burger places. The flavor is amazing on the patties and the milkshake I got was also sooo yummy.

The only thing we enjoyed here was the burger. The service wasn’t great and it seemed like the employees did NOT want to be there at all. The fries were just so so and we don’t recommend them. Burger was top notch though! The building’s aesthetic is really neat too.
