    Delicious carrot cake. Yum
    Kuwana L.

    Had the taste for a turkey burger one day when I was on grubhub. Wrote it into the search and this restaurant and a couple of others popped up. I looked through this restaurant's menu items and was pleased. I ordered about $30 worth of food that day and was very pleased may I say. The food was delicious. The delivery was a little slow the first time but still ok. The second time that I ordered, chose some different items and again very pleased. Food was delicious. The delivery was spot on this time and delivery guy very nice. Will order from again. I enjoyed the food. Order correct down to the sauces and little add ons that I asked for. Thanks again.

    This place stole 1,000$ from my EBT card. This is twice now, they took the replacement benefits as well.

    We were boarding in JFK airport and this was the only shop which was super crowded.. The airport…read morehas so less restaurants and bars... almost all places where under renovation and thank God we had a Shake Shack.. This was the only place where we got beer... it was expensive and the service was so slow, but we had no other choice.. Average ambience . The place was crowded and there were hardly any seats to sit and eat.. They had both manual and digital counters and people got their orders really slow... I always love their milkshakes and fries.. ordered a vegetable burger and it was really average.... Took us about 10 to 20 minutes for the food to arrive... overall an average experience... 3 stars

    3.5 Pretty average shake shack, food was decent and comparable to other Shake Shack locations in…read morethe city. It's super popular since it's one of the view relatively affordable food options in Terminal 8, so seating tends to get crowded, there's usually a short line from noon thru the afternoon and early evening times though they are pretty efficient in both taking and processing orders. The line to order and the kitchen directly behind it--are along the left side of the restaurant, there are both registers to place in-person orders or kiosks to order digitally. Then you step over to the waiting area which is at the front left of the storefront, kinda pouring out into the terminal walkway. Seating is in the middle and right and consists in about 30 seats at tables for 2 or bar seating along the right wall. The space is pretty cramped considering travelers with carry-ons. Food-wise I got a chicken shack and side of fries ($18.26 including tax) which I was satisfied with, the meat was juicy and the exterior crunchy. The fries were crinkle cut and not too crispy on the outside, soft on the inside.bun was soft though held up the protein, tomato, onions a couple slices of pickles and piece of lettuce (I elected to add the toppings). I'd drop by again if I was hungry and waiting for a flight in terminal 8. Interestingly enough they had a staff member that was approaching patrons asking them how their experience was and asking (nicely) if they could write reviews on Google, no benefits attached whatsoever though sounds like they were hoping for some positive reviews and also asking for feedback.

The place is charming not big but its really a fast food place not a restaurant. I tried their chicken sandwich and it was amazing! Service was ok and wait times for food were a little slow but nothing bad. Staff were friendly and they work their butts off! I think the only complaint i might have is i wish they had more variety of food, maybe a few simple entree's. Would definitely go back and eat here.

    Very flavorful lamb burger with egg...absolutely loved it. Lamb burger was not over seasoned and…read moreallowed the lamb flavor to shine through. The buffalo chicken sandwich was VERY spicy but delicious. Crisp fries were on point. Wings were large and great crisp lemon pepper rub was just the right blend and the sweet chili was not 'hot' at all (which was great for me). I had the best mozzarella sticks ever with just right marina sauce. Absolutely excellent service. Place was not crowded and thus one person (Anthony) was all roles except the cook and was very expedient! It is a local neighborhood restaurant and thus the ambience reflects that....so while the chairs don't encourage sitting for long time and the outside does not scream come in, the music was really good and had us singing along. When back in NYC, will definitely return.

    I know it's cliché to hate on airport food, but I really did come at this with an open mind and…read morestill was majorly disappointed. The "chef" didn't pay attention to what I ordered, missing some core ingredients listed in the Pub Burger and in my own add-ons. Then when I asked to have it corrected, I received so much attitude, like seriously horrible custom service. Also, quite over priced given the food quality and customer service level. Pub Burger: Thick and dry. Kinda like those cheap frozen grocery store patties. Also, not much flavor at all. They forgot to add a lot of the toppings. Fries: Mediocre.

They have two ordering pads set up for customers to order, but the UI was unintuitive and gave me strange errors, so I asked the guy behind the counter for help. He proceeded to treat me as if I didn't know how to operate a tablet lol. I ordered and he dismissed me (for lack of a better description). Service was meh / nonexistent otherwise. The burger itself tasted very largely all just parts and pieces of warehouse / factory-made or processed meat and cold pre-packaged buns. I'm not hungry anymore but also not satisfied. Nothing else in the area so just keep your expectations so low to the ground they're burning and you're all good! Ambiance is just super casual as expected of airport food.

    Stopped by Shake Shack at JFK Airport before my flight back to AUS. Funny story, I used to wait…read moreover 3 hours to get a Shake Shack burger at Madison Square Park back when there were only 2 Shake Shack locations. Now you can conveniently order a burger in no time from a location in the airport. You place your food order from a touch screen kiosk. You can also watch your order being prepared by employees in the kitchen. This location has the typical Shake Shack vibe and flair. I ordered the single-patty ShackBurger, a made-to-order quarter pound patty of 100% Angus beef with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion and ShackSauce on a toasted potato bun. The burger really hit the spot before a flight. The burger was juicy, well-seasoned, and made fresh, with the perfect balance of sauce, cheese, and bun. Simple, classic, and satisfying. For an airport location, the quality held up surprisingly well. Service was a bit slow but everything came out hot and neatly put together. Prices are a bit higher at the airport, but the consistency and flavor made it worth it. Solid choice if you're craving a reliable burger at JFK and want something familiar and filling before takeoff.

    I didn't have time to make a sandwich, and thought that GF items would be limited in the airport…read more My absolute favorite fries are crinkle fries! Idk exactly why. Perhaps they're evocative of my childhood and youth, when every diner and burger joint served them. So I headed to Shake Shack for some lovely delicious fries. Ordering is a pain. You use a kiosk. No live people. I had gotten a bottle of water. The screen said to "scan" any other items. There is no barcode and no scanner. After saying three or four times that I couldn't scan the water, someone came over. You have to page through the menu. Ugh. Paid, typed in my name, and waited. And waited. Finally, my name was called, and I got my fries and some napkins. I sat I a lounge chair right across from Shake Shack, and.....the fries were cold. Terrible, awful, crushing disappointment. I so rarely eat fries these days. I was anticipating hot, golden, lovely crispy fries. I got lukewarm semi-limp mostly underdone fries. A sad, sad feeling. There's no seating at Shake Shack, but you can sit at a gate or take your food with you. Employees were working very hard, so it's strange that my fries were cold. I picked them up right away when my name was called. I probably won't come back, if I am in this terminal another time.
