Daniel M.

I recommend going here only because it's one of the two only places in the former San Francisco Westfield mall food court that hasn't closed down yet. It's what you expect from a Shake Shack, I guess. It's pretty good food but pretty expensive. If you have the app, I recommend using it to place your order if there happen to be any promo codes you can use to get a discount on food. Otherwise, your only other option in this mall is Panda Express.

Cherry Blossom Shake (limited time)
Rose T.

With shake in the name, Shake Shack shakes should be good right? I was in the mood for a sweet drink while shopping and saw that there was a variety of limited edition shakes on the menu. After ordering a Cherry Blossom Shake ($6.99 + tax), I waited for a text, and picked up my shake from a staff member ~5 minutes later. +Hand-spun, it was creamy yet refreshing: Not as heavy or cloyingly sweet as other milkshakes I've tried. +Whipped cream was airy and milky +Sprinkles on top were crunchy +Compostable cup and straw were durable. -Flavor reminded me of almonds. Other items I tried during my previous visit: +Fries -ShackBurger Side notes: 1.) Located on the Concourse Level of the former Westfield San Francisco Centre 2.) Walking distance from Powell Station, which is connected to the mall *Verdict: Not my fave spot for burgers, but their shake was pretty good.

Ordered online and picked up; my order was ready when I arrived. The store is located inside the San Francisco Centre's concourse-level food court. Efficient service and a satisfying meal! Had the Shake Shack burger--Angus beef cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, and ShackSauce on a toasted potato bun--fries, and the Chocolate Yule Log Shake made with chocolate frozen custard, chocolate cake pieces, whipped cream, cake crumbles, and festive sprinkles.

Smoke burger with bacon, crinkle fries, custard strawberry shake.

Give SS some love. The Centre looks dismal. SS is still standing. If you have their app, highly recommend downloading it. On their app, you can customize your own burger. Add or not add, lettuce, onions, pickles, or dressing. I asked for no salt on my fries. You get sodas for $1, shakes for $5 (not holiday ones), crinkle fries $3. They are featuring this massive "big Shake Shack" burger with two patties for $9.95. I ordered the strawberry shake, smoke burger (buy one get one free), crinkle fries without salt. Fries were so darn good. Melty in the inside. Once cold, not good. Smoke has real bacon. All good enough for two. What a deal. so fresh. Service was fastish. They have lots of pick ups. I do feel bad. No cashier, so two people were struggling to order on their computer. I used to struggle with their app, but I finally got the hang of it. In the past, I always had to scroll down to all the California shops to find the SF ones.

Half of a grilled cheese sandwich and seven onion rings
Doug I.

This is my first experience at a shake shack. received half of a grilled cheese sandwich and seven onion rings for $21.32. Shake shack is a poor value for your money. I did appreciate the grilling of the sandwich and the chocolate shake was OK. I would like to point out all the workers were working very hard.

8:3/2023 Last time I had a shake shack was the last trip in Vegas..(at the airport).. My youngest loves the chicken sandwich.. I just went with a single shack and fries. Different set up, as you walk up to the kiosk and order yourself.. Only interaction is when you go and pick your order up.. Can't resist krinkle cut fries and the were perfect.

Truffle burger and tiramisu shake downstairs. First off, service is super slow....and usually there are a couple of people in line because thus is one of the more popular food court places. My burger tasted like it had been sitting for a while. Cold onion rings on the truffle burger, and a bit oily. Tiramisu shake was kind of coffee tasting with chunks of soggy cake pieces. Shake shack you can definitely do better!

Black truffle Hamburger protein style
Vinkin Ken T.

I love their burgers! I always order ahead thru the app so I never have to wait unless I arrive earlier than I scheduled it for pick up. It's always been ready on time. Their meat patties is juicy and moist and flavorful. I just wish the app allowed me to add extra lettuce and tomatoes even if it was an additional charge. I wish they would bring back the black truffle burger but their standard shake shack burger is pretty solid.

I'll tell you an old love story that started in New York. A young man staying in Hell's Kitchen walked into a burger joint. At this burger spot they smashed the patties flat and everything from the burger, fries, to shakes were amazing. He loved everything about it so much, he went back the next day. Even when he went to what was newly built at the time, Citi Field to see the Mets play baseball, that same burger joint was located in center field and he loved it so much that he waited in line two innings just to get his hands on that burger. But in the words of Earth, Wind, and Fire: "Somethin' happened along the way, What used to be happy was sad Somethin' happened along the way And yesterday was all we had And oh, after the love has gone" The chain continued to grow. Expanding throughout the world from Dubai to Singapore. With locations popping up all over the Bay Area, Stanford, Oakland, Marin, to Westfield Mall in SF. But that first love is gone. The burger now feels more like a slider. The shake is more like chocolate milk. Even the new chicken sandwich is just lackluster. It just doesn't have the magic that is had before. It changed when they expanded out of New York. Something happened along the way and yesterday was all we had. And oh, after the love has gone.

Shake shake

The beef tasted fresh, that's all they have going for them. One small tomato in the burger isn't enough. Also overpriced at $10. In n out still dominates with $3 fresh burgers.

Raneem R.

Super busy location located in the central of SF. It's in the basement level of the mall right by the food court. No matter what day I come, there's always a long line so I recommend ordered through the app. They have a couple iPad screens you can self-order from. The food is on par with other locations, I usually get the normal cheeseburger and fries.

Cecilia M.

A very busy location! Be prepared for a wait. But service was very good here. During a busy weekday lunch hour, we ordered quickly with a human (there was other lines for kiosk ordering), and my friend and I enjoyed a hot and delicious Animal Style Burger, a Avo Chicken Bacon Burger and signature crinkle fries -- along with a dairy-free chocolate shake. Everything was great!

truffle burger
Kasey N.

I got the truffle burger, it was great i really liked the crispy onions. This location is in the mall. You order at a kioski and then a server will call when you order is ready or you can receive a text message.

Mel's Drive-In is a fun, nostalgic spot that's definitely worth visiting--especially if you enjoy…read morethat classic retro diner vibe. The atmosphere really stands out, with a cool 50s theme that makes the whole experience feel unique and memorable. The burger was the highlight of the meal--juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. It's exactly what you'd hope for from a place like this. The fries were decent, but nothing special--good enough, just not as standout as the burger. The cheese sticks were tasty and cooked well, but at around $18, they felt a bit overpriced for what you get. The restaurant was clean, and the staff were friendly and kept things moving smoothly. Overall, it's a great place to visit for the experience, solid food, and fun atmosphere. Not perfect across the board, but definitely a spot I'd recommend checking out at least once if you're in San Francisco.

There was only one server and the place started to get pretty packed so that's the good news. Also, forgot how nostalgic it is at a diner and one that still has a juke box. Come for the vibes and milkshakes.

The honey and I really enjoyed ordering ahead to this location while we were in town for his work…read more The food quality was always high, although it's busy and sometimes you'll need to interrupt the person working at the small counter at the back on the right side. That's actually how you pick up your order ahead since they no longer use the shelf that's there and keep everything behind the counter. Overall, it's not too bad for picking up lunch, though the area isn't great so I wouldn't eat here in person.

I'm a regular at Chipotle, and this time I decided to order something different…read more I ordered a Steak Taco with a soft flour tortilla, fajita veggies, and cheese ($4.35). I also ordered another soft flour tortilla on the side ($0.50 extra) and added black beans, fresh tomato salsa, and roasted chili-corn salsa on the side, bringing the total to $4.85. I opened the extra soft flour tortilla and added the black beans, fresh tomato salsa, and roasted chili-corn salsa, then placed the steak taco with the fajita veggies and cheese on top. It ended up looking and eating more like a mini steak burrito, which was a very good value for the price. Unfortunately, the steak was too fatty, rubbery, and difficult to chew. I was expecting leaner pieces of steak. I also found the fajita veggies to be extremely salty. In fact, I had to drink three cups of water after finishing my meal because of the saltiness. I've eaten at multiple Chipotle locations, and I've noticed the fajita veggies are consistently very salty. I think Chipotle could easily cut the amount of salt in half without affecting the flavor. Next time, I won't order the steak again because of the fatty, tough meat. Overall, for $4.85, turning a taco into what felt like a mini burrito was still a very good value.

The wait itself was frustrating, but the real issue was the woman taking orders. She genuinely didn't care. I understand burnout - I worked in the food industry, so I get how exhausting customer facing jobs can be. But it was NOT busy. She was not overwhelmed with customers or orders. She was just standing there on her phone, completely disengaged. At one point she put her headphones in and was talking on them while people in the kitchen were making orders. There were at least 4 orders sitting on the counter behind her, and she never checked once. There were only 2 of us and one other customer standing there waiting, clearly confused, for over 30 minutes. She even started getting ready to leave as if it was totally normal that people were still standing there waiting for food. No communication. No checking. No sense of responsibility. You could tell the kitchen staff was annoyed too because she was doing absolutely nothing. When we finally asked for a refund, she offered a whole pizza instead. For what? To wait another 30+ minutes? With conference traffic from Moscone Center and movie nights this place could be making money, but somehow it takes over 30 min for a mini pizza with 0 customer awareness. Never again.

When I walked in, three young women were walking out at the same time, and the restaurant appeared empty. Because of that, I asked the hostess if the restaurant was open. She responded yes. I then asked if I could sit at the bar toward the back, and she again said yes. After I sat down, the hostess walked behind me toward what I assumed were two waiters. While I could not clearly hear everything she said, the two staff members then loudly repeated, "Are you open? Are you open?" in a mocking tone that made it obvious they were making fun of my question. At that point, I was already in the middle of ordering a beverage, but hearing staff openly mock me in an otherwise empty restaurant made me feel uncomfortable and disrespected. I decided to leave because it was clear I was not being treated professionally. I understand my question may have seemed unnecessary, but no customer should feel ridiculed for asking a simple question. I would appreciate it if management could please follow up with the staff involved regarding professionalism and respectful customer service. Thank you for your time.
