When I first arrived here in San Antonio I tried this place. I got the Bistro Burger. The burger was pretty good. Juicy, delicious, lots of flavor. Service was good. I was there early so not too many people. Ambiance was good, not too loud or anything. I also got a Mango Chamoy Slushie which was very good, best I ever had. Actually haven't had one before then. This review is actually for about 3 weeks ago. I'm writing it now since they've earned it. read more

How have I forgotten this place?! So happy to revisit after a hiatus, cuz their burgers are deelish! Easy, casual order up at counter, seat yourself and menu is posted above. They serve a variety of burgers, sandwiches, wings, dogs, desserts, and meals include either a side of tots, fries, cucumbers with chamoy and lucas, or corn in a cup. Other sides are available as well. This trip since we craved for burgers, ordered: Bistro burger- wonderfully seasoned and cooked, served on sourdough, with avocado, grilled onions and mushrooms, mayo. One thing that should be added, the works, I felt it would be even better with the addition of lettuce, pickles, and tomatoes. I ordered the cucumbers sans chamoy and lucas. I appreciate simple veggies. Mexican burger- excellent! Juicy burger with cheese, jalapenos, pico de gallo, bacon and the works. The tater tots had a nice and crispy outer texture as it should. Overall- very good. Tasty, reasonable, clean, and great service. We'll have to make sure to come back sooner! read more

Went for lunch and the service was great, cashier was friendly. It is a little pricey however the portions are great. We paid $46 for a cheeseburger, fries medium drink, Frito pie burger with chili cheese tots and a medium drink, and a cheeseburger kids meal. The wait for our food to be ready did take a little while. Although the burgers are thick they could have had more flavor. The area is cute however the inside is a little small but there is additional seating at an outside patio. They also offer lots of sweets as well. read more

I LOVE THE SHACK. The Dorinachos with beef is just 10/10! Super delicious and loaded with that yummy cheesy beef! The service was great! I didn't know that you could add beef to the Dorinachos but the lady taking our order made a great suggestion and she was very nice! The chili cheese dog is also loaded and yummy! We get it everytime and it never disappoints! They have lots of indoor seating and its super casual. They have a great self service area. I also want to mention that their shakes are amazing! They are the best shakes I ever had - better than any other fast food chain. read more

They have keto buns!!! But it's hit and miss, i've gone a handful of times where they didn't have them or times where the bun is extremely small. But they do lettuce wrapped, still not the same though. The service is always great since I have the extra modifications. The ambiance is nice, we are able to hear each other speak even though there are tv's playing. I'm a sucker for their bistro burger and the cucumber cup as a side. read more

This place is amazing!!! I'm upset at myself for not trying it sooner. From the bread to the seasonings everything is delicious. The fries were crunchy and seasoned to perfection they needed no ketchup. Prices were affordable given the portions. Went around lunch time and this place was super busy and they still managed to get my order out in a timely manner. Music was great and seating areas were nice and cozy. They even had outdoor seating. They offer a good variety of hot sauces also. I highly recommend this place and will surely be back! read more

Great food bread to burger ratio was great!! I ordered a chocolate banana shake!! It was awesome!!

Upon entering, the atmosphere was great, the smell was great, and very well cleaned. The table that we used was sticky but that was on us, we could've easily moved to a new one. The menu was very well explained and straightforward. My family and I spent at about 50$ total. For the price it's very well worth it, both burgers were great, nicely seasoned, cheese fries and cheese tots very good. Overall 10/10. read more

The Shack offers a unique take on classic American comfort food, primarily focusing on hamburgers and hotdogs, each with an inventive twist. During my visit, I found the hamburgers to be the standout feature. The bread, reminiscent of sweet Hawaiian rolls, added a delightful contrast to the savory fillings, making each bite a delightful experience. The bacon-wrapped hotdogs, while enjoyable, didn't offer anything particularly memorable beyond their expected flavors. They were solid and satisfying, but not extraordinary. But the onions rings were super flavorful i definitely recommend them! The Shack also offers a variety of snacks, ensuring there's something for everyone. Overall, The Shack is a great spot for those looking to indulge in creative takes on hamburgers and hotdogs. While some items stand out more than others, the unique twists on familiar favorites make it worth a visit. The service was fast and easy and the environment was comfy. read more

Y'all! This place has the BEST burgers in San Antonio! And I mean the best I have ever had in the 10 years we lived here! My husband thoroughly enjoyed his Philly also! My only regret is not finding this place sooner! It is worth the drive from anywhere in SA, I promise! And the churro split... was not just impressive when they brought it out but so so so yummy and satisfying! I will definitely have to wear my stretchy pants next time because it is just too darn good to leave anything on the plate! Oh and did I mention the staff are super friendly and helpful! They truly care about the customers! Just so good all around! read more

Fast service, we got our food quick. Was a lot of people there was hard to find seating but they do have an outdoor area to sit also. I got the Mexican burger and my brother got the mushroom and Swiss burger both really great they offer corn in a cup or cucumber cup as sides instead of fries if h want something different, they also have a lot of good looking sweets to choose from we were so full we didn't have room to try it but we will be back again. read more

I always enjoy the burgers at the Shake but like many I have a couple of things I get all the time. Everything I've had is really good and I need to branch out from my normal orders. Tonight I did manage to order something new for me. I got the Mexican Burger 1/2 Lb with pica de gallo, bacon, jalapeño, Swiss cheese, and the works. You select what you want on your burger from a list and it includes a side. There are plenty of sides to pick from. I had Fries, No Jalapenos, No Ketchup,No Mustard, with lettuce, mayonnaise .Cut In Half and a pink center medium to rare burger. It was just as I requested. Now these are juicy burgers so have your napkins ready. I just love what they season the fries with. Sorry for the not as good photos but I ate my fries quickly and my burger kept sliding off the bun. So come and try the food...they have a large variety of food types, shakes, desserts etc. read more

Tried the chili burger, and it was absolutely delicious. Burger patty was sizeable, juicy, hot, and a fair value for the price. Onion rings were crispy and flavorful. Customer service was professional and helpful, and food came out fairly quickly. An overall satisfying dining experience. Will definitely be back again. read more

It's been a while since I've been to The Shack since my last review. We went here for a family meal and we have to say it he food came out delicious! I had ordered Crunch Chili Cheese Dog and chili cheese fries. The crunch dog was everything and more some! Crunchy. Delicious chili. Cheesy. Thick hot dog. All such a texture delight and great combination to master the perfect hot dog craving for me! The chili cheese fries came out hot too and the chili was perfecto! The fries was covered in chili and cheese yet still crunchy! We also ordered the Oreos churros and strawberry funnel cake and it was delicious! Our party of 6 was happy! The watermelon aqua Fresca according to the employee said it's made fresh to order. I am not sure if they added sugar to it but it was overwhelmingly sweet. It was good but definitely on the sweeter side for those with a sweet tooth. I feel from my last review which was long ago, the food definitely got better. I would definitely come back again :) read more

The Shack - Crunch Chili Cheese Dog and chili cheese fries - Hot Dogs Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Great burgers in a strip mall. So the inside isn't spacious and you have to go to the counter to pick up your food leaving the anxiety that your seat will be taken. They do have a good sized patio. This isn't a fast food burger joint, they make each order fresh. You will wait a bit to get your food but the taste is worth it. If you want a great burger and fries and are not in a hurry then this place is great . read more

So in comparison to the original Shack it's nothing like it . Go try the original location first . Much much better . They also have honey mustard available as a condiment and I asked for it here and they tried to charge me !! BOOOOO The food wasn't bad but other location definitely better . I will drive further to go to other one next time in town . Ambiance was ok very small inside fits about 30 - 40 people . Oh and don't order the Mango Chamoy Slushie it wasn't full of sweet mangos they was hard and crunchy !! read more

Everything we have eaten here is delicious. From the burgers to dogs to fries to my favorite - the strawberries and cream. The food is always cooked to order, many menu choices and the burgers are to die for, just like you like them (juicy and well seasoned). The fries are tasty and the onion rings are delicious too. It's the consummate burger and fries go to place. read more

On our way back home from Seaworld we were in the mood for a burger, so we came across The Shack in our search, so we thought we'd try it out. The images on Yelp! looked very inviting. The setup was a little crowded and cramped, with there being only a few steps from the door to the line to order food and there being about 12 tables (some of which had been pushed together to accomodate two tables of eight people, near the back of the restaurant). Also, my first impression was that they are super, super busy or just don't care that they have dirty tables. The place was almost full, with only one four seat table available, but it had not been bussed. We waited a few minutes to see if the two workers walking by would clean it, but I wound up having to clean it for our party of four. The photos on the wall, in the line, were helpful to get an idea of what some to the specialty items would look like and the menu provided enough information to where we didn't have to guess what was included on our burgers. The staff was on point and the pricing was pretty good for ther size and quality of the burgers. As you can tell by the photos, the burgers were huge (three of is got burgers...I got a double)! They were also pretty tasty, especailly with them being made with Angus beef. My only gripe is that the meat tasted like it was frozen, prior to being on the grill. Other than that, the veggies seemed fresh and the cheese was melted, perfectly. The Dorinachos (Dorito Nachos with corn, feta cheese, etc. was said to be good, too. We got our itch scratched! read more

Thank you Leo, Andrew and Isa for amazing service!! We came by this place on our to our hotel and didn't expect the burgers to be this good!! Sooooo good!

May the Lord continue to bless your business and soon expand! read more

A monument to excess: "The Big Cheese." Sorta like Tinkerbell, every time someone buys one of these, a cardiologist somewhere buys a new BMW. Better be starving and have your cholesterol tested before ordering one of these bad boys: bring along a bottle of blood thinners and statin drugs. Watching others eat one of these was much like viewing military films of the D-Day Normandy landings -- though I didn't see medics rushing in to save anyone. If you're likely not to have access to food for a week, order one of these. read more

Juicy and flavorful burgers! I also loved that they offered side options that aren't potatoes, which was such a nice change. I went with the cucumbers in chamoy, and they were absolutely delicious! We got our order to-go, but the staff was friendly and made sure everything was packed correctly. No mistakes, no missing items, just solid service all around. read more

Hadn't been here since they moved locations from Babcock several years ago. The food was sooo good, my husband and I loved it! The staff were friendly, we loved the chill environment and the communication about the wait. The line was non stop but they communicated there would be a 30 min wait for the food, and they obliterated the line with ease! Definitely will be back again. read more

Lunchtime!! This place has lots of food for lunch...burgers,hot dogs, fries, smoothies, shakes...churros! I had a hot dog mexican style with Pico de gallo and avocado with tater totes, and my older son had a burger with chili cheese fries. My other son had a Philly sandwich with fries and churros! We were super stuffed after this lunch.. little pricey! But everything is now a day.. wasn't really a service place, you are given a number with your order, and you go to the counter to pick your food up. read more

Yes, recommend The Shack. Small burger joint, serving good food. Many offerings on the menu, lots of options on sandwiches, sides, and drinks. Good sized burger, did not need a double. Seasoned and cooked well. Great with bacon and egg on it. Good fries, hot and fresh, even better with chili cheese (beans and all). Tasty mango drink. We were not able to finish the meals served; wife said she'll ask for a kid's burger next time. The restaurant is a bit small on the inside, but some tables outside. It's stark and spartan, but clean and comfortable. Want to go back to try the cheesesteaks or a hot dog. Lots of dog options but not a Chicago version available. Folks there friendly and busy. Good job! read more

In need of a burger we decided to give THE SHACK a try. Even though we saw another burger food truck on TV that looked good. We compared the reviews on both of them and The Shack won! Located in a shopping center between Academy and LA Fitness off of Northwest loop 410. It took us about 20 minutes to get there from our house so not too far. Walking in the place was almost full, however it was very clean. Paper menu is hanging on the wall as well on three different tv monitors above the cooking area. Once we decided on our order, we stepped up to the cash register to order. We gave our order of a cheeseburger with onion rings and a Philly cheesesteak with fries. The cost of everything was about average for San Antonio. Nothing too expensive. Took a few minutes for our food to be ready, our name was called to come pick it up at the register. Everything looked excellent. We split everything in order to try it all. The burger was good, not extremely greasy or juicy. Not a fan of the onion rings, however the fries were good. Now on to that amazing Philly Cheesesteak. It did have mushrooms on it, and I am not a real big fan of those, however it was so good I did not even pick them off. Everything was hot and you could tell it was just cooked. We just went back this weekend and got the beef and chicken Philly cheese steak sandwiches. Once again, the food and restaurant were excellent! Will definitely be going back someday to try a dessert if we can stay away from the Philly Cheesesteaks! read more

I love this place. Burgers are high quality, Funnel Cake (need i say more) and the chili dogs are massive. I have been a few times and even brought the Fam once. They were impressed with the quality. My cousin, who complains about everything, complained that the burger was too big. WHAT?!? We all looked at him crazy. This place is tucked away in a strip mall but has indoor and outdoor seating which is nice. read more
