I've driven by this food truck countless times and there's always been a line, but it's gotten even crazier since TikTok blew it up. I came early and still waited about 20-30 minutes before placing my order, but honestly, the wait didn't even feel that bad. The staff were incredibly friendly and made the wait in line a no sweat. While everyone was waiting, they handed out free fries with their homemade sauce, which was such a nice surprise! They also passed out bottles of cold water and even let parents with young kids order first. It's little gestures like these that really show they care about their customers and their community. The chimichurri and all of their sauces are made fresh daily, and you can definitely taste the difference--they're absolutely delicious!! I had everything on my steak and fries (Steak was made medium rare to order and just how I like it; fries were crispy good!!) Beyond the amazing food, the father and son owners were some of the kindest people I've met. They genuinely radiate positivity, treat everyone with respect, and create such a welcoming atmosphere. It's rare to find a place with incredible food and people who care this much about their customers. This is the kind of local business that deserves all the success! I'll definitely be back!

My girlfriend visited this food truck the weekend before and highly recommended it to me. Since I'm…read morenotoriously picky when it comes to restaurants and food spots, I arrived with high expectations--and I'm happy to report that this place exceeded them. First, the wait was completely worth it. If you get there early, you can probably avoid the line, but even if you can't, don't let that discourage you. Good food is worth a few extra minutes of patience. As someone who pays attention to the details, I always take a quick look inside food trucks and kitchens when I can. I was genuinely impressed by how clean, organized, and professional everything looked. It's clear they take pride in what they do. Now, let's talk about the food. The fries were fresh and clearly made in-house--not the typical pre-packaged fries you find everywhere else. The steak portions were generous (they definitely don't believe in counting pieces), and the combination of flavors and sauces came together perfectly. Every bite was better than the last. By the time I finished, I was already planning my next visit. There are still several items on the menu I want to try, and if they're anything like what I had, my diet may be in serious trouble. Highly recommended!

One of my kids wanted some salt for her mac & cheese. Bartender never came back to ask how everything came out. Multiple people loafing around and waking past but I couldn't get anyone's attention for the salt. I asked someone who said we aren't his table and kept walking. I saw this guy up by the bar - collared shirt - looked like a manager. I waved at him and he looked at me and just shook his head and went back to talking to some other bar back. I was beyond pissed and finally the older manager lady happened to walk by. I said who is that guy in the collared shirt - oh he works here but hasn't started his shift yet. Yea well I just wanted the salt shaker if he bothered to take 2 seconds and see. Or he could have gotten someone else's attention but he didn't, he just blew me off. But the Manager made no attempt to really apologize or ask what she could do. Then our drinks are empty for awhile- none came by to see if we wanted another round. Eventually I'm waving at the bartender who finally comes over and I ask for a 2nd round. Then he forgets about making them and spends 15 mins talking with other employees and doing whatever before I wave at him again. He gives me the nod and The drinks finally come but no limes like the previous round. Honestly I was done - might have stayed longer but with our kids it was time to go. Finally I've included a photo of our view of these diligent employees that are obviously too busy to worry about service or the perception of how things look from a customers point of view. The food wasn't bad but honestly the experience wasn't great. We won't be back.

Why we don't normally dine in is because, regardless if it is winter, summer, or any other time of year, it is absolutely freezing (and I do like it "cool", just don't enjoy feeling like I am dining in their walk in freezer). Food is about what you would expect from a chain restaurant and priced very high for what you actually get. I asked for cheese sauce on my fries but they apparently don't view that as a "thing" as I was politely told they do not offer it.

Shake Shack Livingston at the Circle

Ahh, Shake Shack. When this location first opened up, it was insanely busy. Much like how the…read moreMorris Plains Chick-fil-A was when it got its start. At this location, parking is tight, unless you're coming at an off hour. The Shack occupies a corner spot, slightly near one of the main entrances of the parking lot, so you know their will be minor traffic jams when several incoming vehicles have this place set as the final destination. The inside has a concrete, industrial look. However, with the glass windows, plenty of sunlight can penetrate the place. The bathrooms are located in the back. Then, there are the entrances. There's the front, main entrance, near the register, and the back entrance where you can make a quick exit if needed. It's located by the bathrooms. The ketchup and water pumps are easy to use. As for ordering, get in line, or pre-order with their app. If eating in, you'll get a buzzer that lets you know when your meal is ready. As for food? Well it's Shake Shack and pretty standardized as Shake Shacks go. They have beef, chicken, hotdogs, shakes, fries, and doggie treats. Generally you can mix and match items. Burger with fries? (Single? Double? Triple? With or without cheese? Breaded and fried Portobello mushroom stuffed with cheese? Chicken? Bacon? You want a hotdog instead?--actually their dogs are kinda salty, so perhaps stick with their potato bunned offerings instead). I haven't had their shakes, but legends say they're quite thick. Their fries are crinkle cut, and as far as fries go, they just seem like deep fried potatoes with salt on them, but not necessarily married. When they cooldown, they're much less enjoyable. I've mostly stuck with their burgers. However, I am partial to In-N-Out, and price wise, you might want to consider how much value you get out of dining here. But if you're shopping in the area, or if you are craving some kind of fast food burger, this place isn't a bad option.

Wagyu burger: This was cooked to perfection and my brother said this was really good and it was worth the 45-minute drive to come here. Elk burger: My friend said this was cooked just the way he liked it and it was the best burger he has ever had. He said this was definitely worth the drive. Turkey burger: This was cooked perfectly and was not dry. I loved how it tasted with the right amount of cheese on there. Nacho beef cheese fries: The beef made this dish even better.

Overall: This was definitely worth the 45-minute drive to come here to eat at this burger joint. Maybe we will come back next time with another friend, and we will try out other menu items.

All of the Fuddruckers that I grew up around are gone and there's only a few left in the country and this was one of them. Had to take full advantage of it!

They have lots to choose from for burgers and some other stuff however I always just get the basic burger and then go to the toppings bar and fill it up. Fries come with every entree but drinks are extra. It's also unlimited fries. You just have to go up to the pickup counter again if you run out of fries and they will give you some more. I just started with one of the basic 1/3 pound burgers and topped it up with tons of pickles and liquid cheese that I just love and miss so much. They have lots of different condiments as well as jalapeno cheese and some sort of horseradish mayonnaise. Definitely good choice here! Definitely planning to return in the future.
