    Stopped in here for some lunch after I had been shopping in the jewelry theatre. It was convenient cause it was close, about a 4 min walk. Only thing is there is an intense amount of homeless in the area, just heads up. If you're from the area you're familiar with the conditions. The place it self was super clean, bathrooms were as well! They have a kiosk for self order. We tried their bacon cheese burger and it was delicious. We also tried their bacon cheese fries and these were great as well. Overall, I would only stop at this location if I was in the area.

    Located in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. Parking will be on the street with meters. Ideal stop for those who are already in downtown. They open early at 10 AM for people that are hustling and bustling in the city. I stopped in for a quick snack. I opted for fries and a freshly made ice cream, which was very satisfying. When I have more time, I generally eat the whole combo. The service is always amazing. About 20 tables inside. Thank you for servicing downtown LA. I appreciate you being here.

    Shack burger, avocado bacon burger, and cheese fries.

    I came here mostly because in the Shake Shack app, they offered to give me a FREE hamburger if you spend at least $10. Since everything is pretty pricey already and one hamburger is almost $10, you should always be able to reach that spending limit no matter what you order. I'm surprised most people don't use the coupon codes offered in the app to get some free items. Please do yourself a favor and download it so you can get basically a free entre on top of what you would already order. I got a Shack burger, the free avocado bacon burger (using the promo code on the app at the time of this review), and cheese fries. The total for all three was ~$15 after taxes and promo code, which I think is a good deal. I came in just before 12 PM, so it was relatively empty. My order came in about 5 minutes. Staff were very friendly and professional. It wasn't hectic yet, so maybe that was why, but I am sure the staff were prepping for a busy lunch once it reached 12 PM. The bathrooms have lock codes on them and there is no outside sink just for hand washing. There is a filtered water system and dispense ketchup for public use. The place was clean and quiet before the 12 PM rush hour. Summary: - CLEANLINESS. The inside of the restaurant was clean. There weren't too many people when I came in, so it didn't look crowded or overwhelming. - COSTS. $ Affordable. ~$15 if you use promo codes on the Shake shack app. - CUSTOMER SERVICE. The staff was quick, friendly, and professional. - FOOD QUALITY. Way better than McDonalds and other generic fast food chains. - FOOD QUANTITY. Decent portion size. Even better if you get another free hamburger. - WAIT TIME. Five minutes to order two hamburgers and fries. Fast.

    Black Truffle time.

    I've never really been much of a Shake Shack fan, but when my wife and I were hungry and we were walking right by this location, I figured it was time to give it another shot. We came here around 5PM and the place was pretty busy, but the kitchen was working fast, and the staff up front was very friendly. What drew me in was the advertised Black Truffle Burger so I ordered that, a the sunset lemonade, and we split an order of the french fries. The Sunset Lemonade was a mixture of Strawberry, Lemon Juice, and Orange which tasted pretty solid, though nothing above average. The Black Truffle Burger was the first burger I've ever had from Shake Shack that really did it for me! The Gruyere cheese, crispy sweet onions, black truffle oil, and the potato bun that held it all together was absolutely delicious, while the standard crinkle cut french fries were top notch as well. Overall, Shake Shack finally won me over with this trip and I'll definitely be back in the future. This location is so convenient for me, that as long as they keep these special burgers from making some sporadic appearances, I'll be sure to come back in the future!

    Food was fresh. Out of a few menu choices due to a door dash special. Service was friendly and food was served quick

    Cold and even colder fries and onion rings! Yuck!

    My bad! Never -Never order fries or onion rings via delivery!!! I have never received a quality product! Arrived ice cold! = in the trash! Bacon Burgers? I'm sure good if hot & fresh, again arrived cold! Not on SS , it's about the delivery app! So $$$ for for not eaten!

    Another fine example of a Shake Shack. Though their food isn't my favorite and it's a little over-hyped, I have never walked out saying this meal is terrible. If anything, I just think their price point is $5-$8 too high for the quality of food. Indeed, no burger, fries, and drink combo should cost $22 before tip--even if it is a "specialty" burger or bbq fries, which was just fries dressed with bbq dry rub and a tub of nacho cheese. That was maybe a $15 meal at best, and even then I'd think the burger was on the scrawny side. If it wasn't for the fact it's nearby the Wiltern, where I was seeing a show, I'd have never come here. That's what I think of Shake Shack; okay in a pinch, but not in my top 20 fast food joints.

    Good burgers, surrounding area was OK to walk around. We ordered on the screen and the food came quickly to the table.

    Coming in to a last minute job here in downtown this place was close by. This place had good food and great service. The place can use a retouch of decoration but it is fine and clean. I like that they have safety patrol in the building to keep it safe. The burger and fries were great.

    Nasty cheese sauce

    Food was shit and basic. way too basic for it to be expensive, especially since they charge separately, burgers drinks and fries are sold separately. they need to lower to price instead of leeching on others to pay for their shitty supplies in food. P.S the cheese tastes like sour milk and it doesnt pull, living off of hopes and dreams.

    Believe it or not, I ate fast food. And I wasn't forced to. And I ate it all. It's what I ate before attending a show across the street at The Wiltern. Walked in and ordered via an electronic device or kiosk station. It's where you also grab a number and then find a seat and your order is brought out to you. If you're with others, have them find seating while you place the order. I saw others standing and eating because there's not a lot of places to sit. I can't really comment on the service as I didn't have human interaction other than my order being brought to my table. Not that I needed it - just mentioning it in case you know me and you think I'm getting old and forgetting to mention service. As for the food - for me, high prices for small portion size. $20 for a burger, fries and a drink. See pics. I had hoped that because of the locations and Asians can handle heat - that my order would at least give me a tingle in that department. It didn't. The burger or the fries. Flavor was ok but I wanted to at least feel some semblance of heat - but there was none. I know I've been to a Shake Shack before. I recall feeling the same way back then as I do now. It's ok. But remember, I don't really eat fast food. So, go and enjoy if you do.

There's usually a line, but it's only ever long on game days and special sales events. The food is quite good, and there's plenty of shelf-like tables around the primary parking lot to make grabbing a space not too difficult on a "regular" night. The only real issue is that it's gotten quite expensive (like pretty much all fast food joints since 2020. For the value hunter, it's best to check the company's social media feeds to find the days they offer 2-for-1 specials and whatnot. If one is rich... well, then "anytime is probably fine"; it's a decent and respectable way to get chili on the upholstery of your Rolls-Royce!

    Updating my review from 4 to 1. Service completely fell off…read more There were only about 3 people ahead of me, and even they were getting frustrated with the cashier. Orders were getting mixed up, people had to repeat themselves multiple times, and she kept telling customers to "wait" before even letting them speak. One situation stood out--there was a customer trying to order in Spanish, and the cashier couldn't understand him. Meanwhile, other staff behind the counter were speaking Spanish to each other but didn't step in to help. Another customer who was waiting for their food ended up translating just so the order could go through. That shouldn't happen. When it was my turn, I tried to be patient. I downloaded the Tommy's app since there was a sign posted right at the register and asked if she needed my barcode--she seemed confused. I ordered a triple cheeseburger, and she repeated something completely different back to me. I had to slowly repeat myself several times and was still told to "wait" again. Maybe she was new or overwhelmed, but with that many staff behind the counter, someone should have stepped in to help. The lack of coordination made the whole experience frustrating. Food is what you expect, but the service alone made this a bad experience.

We were heading back from the Grayson and wanted a quick bite to eat. Ordered from the app for drive thru pick up. Not sure if it was on the worker's side or the food ordering speaker was messed up, the menu did look like an Eldritch horror, but we had to repeat our order code several times. We were told to go to the next window. We get to the next window and it's a window to the actual restaurant and not part of the kitchen. I have never seen this at a McDonald's before. Usually the first window is to pay or to get your receipt, second window is to get your order, and if it's super busy there's a small pull up area where they may walk out your food. But no, second window was just a window to the restaurant. We pulled up too far and instead of letting us just walk back and pick up the food, or just bring the food to us in the parking spot, I guess this is for safety of the workers since it was really late at night and there's transients around, but we had to just weirdly reverse and bring our car back into the drive thru line, much to the ire of the other customers. Not a great experience. Lady working there was also tapping her fingers and obviously very impatient. If you were a bit more clear with your instructions it wouldn't have led to this. Food and prices were cheap and normal, as of all the franchise locations.

I have been to…read moreplenty of In-N-Out spots and for some reason this one just tastes better every single time, even though technically it is the same menu. The burgers here are always so fresh, hot, and satisfying. One thing people should know is that there are off-menu customizations, and that is the best way to order if you already know what you like. I never do the regular double because it is just not enough for me. I usually order two 3x3 burgers. One I get with no onion, and the second I do even simpler with no onion, no lettuce, and no tomato, so it is basically just the bun, cheese, and three patties. I always ask for extra spread too because that is a must. Usually I get two spreads per burger and one extra for the fries, so my full meal comes with five spreads and I use every single one. What also makes this location stand out is how well they handle the crowds. It is always busy, but they have so many employees working that the line keeps moving fast and the whole place stays organized. Even when it looks packed, service is efficient and seating usually works out fine if you just pay attention and grab a table as people leave. For such a high-volume location, they do a really good job keeping things moving. Love In-N-Out, always will, and this Hollywood location is the one I keep coming back to. Easy 5 stars.
