This is another one of my favorite and underrated food spots in NYC. I used to go here so often when I was working in the City College area, I think I've eaten at this place around 12 times. Let me tell you, all these delicious food spots in this area was dangerous for my wallet LOL. Anyway, Burger & Shake Co. is home to my favorite Korean corn dogs in NYC. When I first tried their corn dogs back in December 2022, around the time they first opened, I was absolutely amazed. I got their potato corn dog with half mozzarella and half hot dog, along with their sriracha mayo sauce. AND OH MY GOD, THIS PLACE TOPS EVERY OTHER CORN DOG PLACE I'VE BEEN TO BEFORE. The batter to filling ratio is perfect, I never felt like I was eating too much batter. And I don't know what they season their batter with but it's just so addicting. Also, their sriracha mayo sauce pairs soooooo well with the corn dog, whenever I get their corn dog, I would get it with that sauce. However, I did eat at this place since it opened back in late 2022 up until summer of 2024 and noticed that their quality in the Korean corn dogs have gone down. I don't know how to explain it but the last time I had it, it just didn't taste the same as the first few times I had it. It might be the batter because the texture was different and felt too fried. I was disappointed at the changes they might have made but that's okay because this place still has other fantastic options! Below are my reviews for the other menu items I've tried. milkshake: can't go wrong with a milkshake tbh, this was great, 8/10 mochi ice cream: wait like 15 minutes for it to defrost, they have many flavors for you to choose from, 9/10 poutine fries: this is so good, 10/10 garlic truffle fries: this is also good but you will have garlic breath for the rest of the day LMAO, 10/10 bacon and cheese fries: too salty for my liking but still yummy, 8/10 chicken tenders: dry af, 5/10 onion rings: veryyyyy crispy, too heavy, 6/10 So overall, I love this place. I haven't tried their burgers though but I've heard mixed reviews from my friends. I absolutely recommend this place though, it's so affordable too. There's a bathroom, the workers are friendly, and they play some pretty good music in the background. The only caveat I have is that there are long wait times for food, especially when it gets busy. I don't know if the wait times have improved since it's been over a year since I've eaten here but I remember waiting 15 minutes plus just for my order. And if there's a lot of people on line, expect that wait to be even longer. read more

This place has pretty decent food the price is definitely worth the filling, but there is one person I always look forward to when I am there. Jaiden, he is someone i look forward to seeing after a long day he is always there with such warmth, jokes, and kindness. Jaiden alone gets 5/5 stars. I love the pinball machine, the wide selection, and the kindness offered by employees (esp jaiden). read more

Tasty, casual restaurant which was a big hit for my school-age kids. In their words - "Even picking up the burger is an adventure!"- about the deliciously messy BBQ Bacon Burger. My youngest about the chicken tenders- "If I could give it six stars, I would!" Being able to sit outside was very enjoyable and the service was helpful and friendly. read more

*4.5 stars* Ordered takeout so can't speak for the ambience or service, just the food. I got a spicy corn dog, potato corn dog half sausage/ half mozzarella, chicken tenders and truffle fries. Both of the corn dogs were phenomenal, the batter was delicious, sausage was well cooked and mozzarella had perfect pull. Chicken tenders were also very tasty, the pieces were quite big but thoroughly done. Truffle fries were pretty good, though I don't think they had enough truffle on them and I couldn't taste any garlic. Also wish they offered their own dressing since they don't have much truffle. I ended up using honey mustard that came with the chicken tenders which was also very good. Great place for comfort food! Reasonably priced even when ordering out! read more

Just what the neighborhood needed. Amazing food, uniquely designed ugers and sandwiches that aren't just gimmicks but perfectly balanced value between taste and price. Took my mom and recommended the chicken sandwich. Three days later I see she went there on her own and ordered it again. Moms know what's up! read more

Street toast: (3/5) I've been watching a lot of dramas and always heard about gilgeori toast/street toast. When I saw it here I was super excited. It was kind of underwhelming. It's slightly sweat, on a thin slice of toasted white bread. I was expecting the bread to be thicker and slightly savory. The ham is extra. However, I don't eat ham. I don't know I guess I expected slightly more flavor wise. Ambiance: 4/5 it's spacious, clean and there are details of the each dishes ingredients posted on their menu board Service: 5/5 pleasant fast and to the point. Thank you for the service and God bless! read more

We stopped here after a few errands in the area. Really clean space and the staff is friendly and polite! I tried the peanut butter burger and it was okay. Not the best peanut butter burger I've ever had but I'm willing to go back to try other things on the menu. The fries were cooked to PERFECTION. The chicken strips and fries were really good too. Adult beverages are fairly priced which was great to see. Desert choices ... heaven. We got the ice cream cookie sandwich and the generous scoop makes it shareable. Best part is you choose the cookies, and you can mix them, and you also choose the ice cream flavor. On the next visit I'll try a shake. read more

Food was good but overweight worker was disrespectful, made a bad joke about my appearance to my face. It wouldn't have been that bad if it was funny, but it was unfunny and distasteful. Have also had issues with him in the past talking to people instead of doing his job (i.e. not making food/not completing orders). Please speak to the worker about his performance. read more

Clean, modern space. It's a busy little hang out spot , that students seem to frequent. Great place to grab Korean corn dogs, burgers and fries! Also great cookies, ice cream and shakes! Staff is friendly and patient! read more

Where do I begin? My burger tasted like a meatball and made me feel like a meatball. I don't know why. I don't know how. Look at the picture below for more evidence. Look at the consistency, the mushy insides of what I can only assume is a sick joke. Did it taste bad? No, it just tasted like a meatball formed into a burger patty. Fries were pretty good. That is all. read more

Burger & Shake is owned by the same fine folks who own Cafe One (which is just a few doors down). They know their audience, serving yummy, well-priced food - fairly fast. The $5 burger includes lettuce, tomato, onion and the house sauce. 50cents extra for cheese. The $9 burger combo also gets you crinkle fries and a drink. My food was hot and tasty. It's a plus that they also sell beer, ice cream and mochi. I'll be back! read more

The food and service are always great, the prices are exceptional! I love to buy the salmon burger-- though its sufficiently filling, the fries are the star of the show. They are always crunchy, even after a delivery. I used to buy the chicken and waffles, but it doesn't seem to be on the menu right now. I'm hoping it comes back! read more

Out of this world. I ordered 2 days in a row. Really shocked at the juicieness of the bugers and chicken sandwich. The special sauce was awesome. They use the cardboard boxes for the fries so they stay crispy. Definitely coming back here. Not to bad for Manhattan, price wise. read more

I'm so happy to have this burger place in my area which is a 10 min drive and I've ordered take-out 3x already. Street Parking is hard to find. The place have indoor seatings and spacious but service is slow so do prepare to wait a bit for food. They have ton of drinks and a bunch of different ice-cream brand that I haven't seen before. Corn dog- nothing special Truffle garlic fries - wish it was regular fries and not crinkle fries. Also, more truffle taste would be great but still, i order this every time that's how much i enjoyed it. Double cheeseburger- good and big portion Chicken burger- normal Cheeseburger- good. However, the last time i got this... the bread changed to a bigger bun. The size of beef patty is much smaller than the bread. I tend to prefer equal ratio meat to bun. read more

Lovely people, affordable selections, a huge range of beers and ice cream. It's become my go-to for takeout in the neighborhood!

this place is infested with maggots, there are flies and moths flying around inside the store. if you think they're not in the kitchen and the food you're kidding yourself read more

This spot is kind of amazing, great selection of drinks and ice cream, the food menu is really interesting, the prices are out of a time machine, and the staff is very friendly. It's a breath of fresh air read more

A total gem. So so affordable, and the staff is so kind and personable-- I love it here. The food is amazing-- genuinely incredible veggie burger (and I'm a vegetarian who misses burgers) and the BEST fries. And the ice cream!! This place has everything. I adore this place and am so excited to be a regular here. read more
