    I stopped into shake shack before my drive home. The parking in this location is not pretty. High traffic area. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries. The fries are always crispy. The burger was good. I just wish Shake Shack would add more seasoning.

    Chocolate shake, fries, single cheeseburger

    Lots of indoor seating, easy ordering experience and quick service. Went around 9pm and food came out fast. It's exactly what I expected of a Shake Shack. Yummy fast food. Fries were crispy, which I loved. Burger was nothing amazing but hit the spot (it was $10 with bacon for a single patty cheese burger). Chocolate shake was super-- rich and not too thick! Great place for a quick bite.

    Pretty average shake shack but I have to say the quality of food is not consistent. My fries were perfectly cooked and seasoned but my burger patty was dry because it was overcooked. I ordered a standard shake shack burger and it disappointed a bit. Otherwise it still tasted good. The burger is a decent size. Service is quick so that I appreciate. Restaurant is also very clean and pretty spacious. It's a casual fast-food place but still nice to sit in and eat at. They have outdoor seating as well with umbrellas for warmer weather.

    Chocolate Yule Log Shake

    Before Christmas, I stopped in to satisfy my sweet tooth with one of their seasonal holiday milkshakes. This location and shake selection did not disappoint! I ordered online, walked in and my shake was ready within minutes. The staff were very attentive and friendly and the Chocolate Yule Log Shake was delectable! Bonus that there's multiple EV chargers in the shopping center.

    Chocolate Salted Caramel Shake and Chipotle Avocado Bacon Burger
    Mimi W.

    I've visited a few times through the years and I'm not a big fan of this chain in general, the value isn't there for me. The taste of the burgers are slightly elevated for a fast food place, but the patty is still cheap and flavorless to me. The Chipotle Avocado Bacon Burger was tasty, good kick, but messy to eat. For the cost of a burger and fries for $15, you can go to a real restaurant and order takeout for a better burger. Service is typical of fast food places. Ambiance is ok depending on the crowd, there's indoor and outdoor seating. Shakes are thick since it's frozen custard, it's a workout to drink, might need a spoon. Chocolate salted caramel shake was very sweet but good.

    Was in the area and looking for a quick place to grab lunch. Located in a cute, very new looking shopping center with a few other options to choose from. My daughter and I chose Shake Shack because who doesn't love crinkle fries? We both ordered burgers and it came out fairly quickly. We ordered bacon cheese fries and I appreciated that the toppings were put into separate containers otherwise the fries would've been soggy. Service was great!

    Fiancée and I came here for a cheap date night dinner. I had just come from swim lessons at OneLife Fitness and was pretty hungry. This Cabin John shopping mall has been renovated over time and looks very nice, especially at night. There are good restaurants and places to shop. Before eating we sat outside and talked on a patio behind Colony grill. Once hungry we went to order our food; it was within 30 minutes of closing. The servers were pleasant and our food was well prepared. Shake Shack always does a good job on presentation. That's true of every location I've visited. This location is one of the best! Thanks for a tasty dinner and I'll definitely be back.

    Avocado Bacon chicken sandwich
    Kelly D.

    First time going to any Shake Shack. I would probably pass on a 2nd visit. This is basically self service ordering at a kiosk. Luckily one of the associates walked up to the counter when I started ordering because I had a question regarding the spicy chicken, which he was considerate and answered my inquiry. We placed the order; however kiosk asked for table #; but there were no instructions where to get the #, nothing on the tables. After waiting for a few minutes someone else came up to front and noticed I was looking around. They asked if I my needed help & I mentioned not knowing how to put a table # in. Come to find out, the number signs weren't anywhere to be found. He went and got some. Meal came fairly quickly, place was clean and modest. They did have self service for filtered water and sodas and limited condiments, just ketchup. The presentation of our sandwiches was lovely. We both ordered the Avocado Bacon chicken sandwich. Delicious but I expected a larger piece of chicken for the price. Crinkle fries were ok, but again felt portion size for the price was lacking. My husband left saying he was still hungry. We were surprised that with "Shake" as part of the name there wasn't any Shake that I was tempted or enticed to try.

    Avocado Bacon Burger and the Chicken Shack
    Tommy Y.

    I got the Avocado Bacon Burger and the Chicken Shack. The Chicken Shack came for free, as for the month of April you can use the code "chickensunday" at checkout with an order of more than $10 and receive a free chicken sandwich, which is nice! The Avocado bacon burger was good but heavily seasoned, which is a good or bad thing depending on your taste, but in my opinion it was a bit TOO salty, the quality of the ingredients was pretty good as per Shake Shack's usual standard. The Chicken Shack had a nice crispy fry on the outside, good texture, but the inside was a bit dry and overcooked. Seasoned heavily as well, but not as salty as the burger. Overall I do enjoy the occasional Shake Shack burger, I just prefer the burgers over the chicken sandwiches. The self service kiosks were also convenient.

    I have always had a good experience at this location. However, today I stopped there at 11:30 am and placed an order on the kiosk for a single Shake Shack burger with fries and a drink. At 11:45, I went to the window to ask about my order and was told, "We are working on orders and you will have to wait like everyone else." I told the manager who was at the pick up counter I had already waited 15 minutes and he walked away with no comment or answer. I finally got my meal at 12:00 noon. The fries were cold and the burger was undercooked and cold. I understand when a restaurant is busy but when I placed my order, it was me and one other family. There were only 4 tables occupied in the dining area. There should have been a minimal wait. The wait was bad enough but the attitude of the manager was rude and unacceptable.

    Shroom burger
    Jo M.

    Updating cause I've had a couple visits since the previous review. Customer service team reached out to make things better, but today's visit prompted me to update. Thank you to the manager, Mario Hernandez, for making today's visit great. Friendly from start to finish. My order was well packaged and correct. Order was ready when I came back from a couple other stops I made in the shopping center. Mario offered me all the sauces I wanted since I was taking my order home. Still really like the shroom burger. I did get a shack burger for my dad, and he enjoyed it! Fries were great! And I may need to get large quantities of the shack sauce cause that's good on everything!

    Fries. For $5. Crazy
    James D.

    Just ordered some fries from Shake Shack. The picture is attached of how many fries you get for $5. ARE YOU KIDDING? I asked the person working if this is really how many fries you get at $5 an order, and she simply said yes. Unreal

    'Shroom Burger
    Michele C.

    I've experienced in person pickup as well as delivery, both experiences were good. I really enjoy the shroom burger. And unless dietary restrictions prevent it you should definitely add cheese to the fries. The fries remind me of a no frills crinkle cut from my cafeteria lunch days. It's so simple yet so good. Looking forward to another meat-less shroom burger day in the very near future.

Since McDonald's is a popular spot in the mall's food court, there was a bit of a line. However, I powered through because I really wanted a QPC combo meal. I thought the line moved pretty fast, and I waited about 10 minutes to order. To be frank, I thought some customers were causing the bottleneck in the line. Why? Although folks had been waiting in the line for about 10 minutes, 1. many folks did not know what they wanted and/or 2. did not have their form of payment ready when they reached the cashier. *One of my pet peeves.* When it was my turn to order, I thought my cashier was super friendly and very nice. I probably waited about five minutes for my food, which was understandable because the restaurant was popping. OMG. My QPC tasted really fresh...well, as fresh as something from McDonald's can be. I'm going to assume that the beef patties were cooked right before I ordered so the burger was oh so juicy. I'll say that this McDonald's is a little stingy with the ketchup packets. Overall, I had a pretty decent experience eating here. I will admit that it was a bit difficult to find some seating in the food court, but I cannot attribute this to the McDonalds.

It's accessible with plenty of parking nearby, including several disabled parking spots right out front, is absolutely beautiful inside with stunning black-and-white tiles adorning the counter (where you can order -- although there is also a screen-type ordering system in the entryway, as well) wall, enticing photos of all the important things in life -- those being fresh figs, olives, spices, and unfiltered coffee being poured, all along the wall above the tables with most comfortable seating! There are Turkish plates and copper pots hung above, as well, to give a splendid feeling of how food can be heartily prepared and beautifully served -- and beautifully served it is here! The caffeine-free mint tea comes in a gorgeous metal pot and is drunk from a glass glass (meaning a glass made of glass, not ceramic) with eye-catching decorations that will help to bring you into the spirit of the meal you are about to have .... The Quinoa Tabouli Salad with Falafel is spectacular! It's standout amazing, delicious, refreshingly oh-so-fresh, crispy, crunchy, yummy -- how many good-to-great things can I say about it? If I keep complimenting it as much as it deserves, you might get bored, ha ha! You might think that I'm exaggerating. I'm not. Of course, it's possible I'm biased and have tastes that just happen to align with this particular falafel spot's way of preparing things -- but I think not! I think this is objectively over-the-top in greatness! The District Salad is equally splendiferous and worth your time to indulge in savouring every bite. There are so many great-looking things here I can't wait to try! I must taste the Shorbat Adas (puréed lentil soup), (non-quinoa) Tabouli, Toom, and many other things here! The variety is very wowing! Most places just don't give you this variety in terms of various dishes or the variety within each dish that this place does -- and that contributes greatly to not only your appetite but also your health. So much care is clearly put into everything here from the décor to the drinks to the hospitality. It's really like a mini, super-tasty trip to the Near East -- and welcomes everyone equally. I'm so glad I stopped in! I can't wait to go back! Highly recommended! Very much deserving of an absolute, all-around Yay! :-D (By the way, from a not-falafel fan I know: 'You know I'm not a fan of falafel, but that was really good -- everything! We need not ever go back to the other place -- even if it's free!' What better endorsement could there be?)

They got kung pao chicken, Beijing beef, beef broccoli, fried rice, and a veggie side of broccoli/cabbage. This is truly Chinese American as none of it had truly authentic Chinese flavors.
