Shake Shack Old Fourth Ward - Atlanta

When you hear the name Shake Shack, you ultimately pray for the most divine milkshakes Atlanta could offer, that's a no. Only 3 choices to choose from was a BIG disappointment. As you walk in, you order your food through tablets located at the front, grab a table number (plastic tent card) which you also place that number in your order and then pick a table. I ordered the Chicken Shack and fries (average), which you have to pay separately. And the drink (half/half, which was lemon water to me, blah) is also separately priced. My child ordered the chicken fingers and complimented on how crispy and good they were. The triple chocolate milkshake was ok, she stated a 7/10. Both orders came to 35.00... I could have went to Chick-fil-A and paid only 20.00 for both orders with similar items.

Not really understanding the hype. The burger was ok for a fast food restaurant but then the price is not really fast food. The fries are fine. Nothing really exceptional. I'll take In-n-out any day over Shake Shack.

I finally got around to visiting Shake Shack after a workout on the Beltline and I had someone with me to enjoy as well. We decided to go on a bike ride on the Beltline and while approaching Dekalb Ave I saw Shake Shack and made up in my mind that I was going to have that today. After returning the bikes an hr later we decided that walking a mile back to Shake Shack was worth it. Before even walking in I was greeted with a sign advertising these new shake flavors they had available that immediately caught my attention specifically the Oreo Funnel Cake flavor). Once inside we ordered on the kiosk which has become my preference in some places. It was quick and easy. I ordered the Bourbon Bacon Jam Burger $9.39), fries $3.99), lemonade $3.69) and of course the Oreo Funnel Cake shake $6.69) as well. My date had the Smoke Shake burger $8.49), fries $3.99) and the root beer float $5.99). After having the Bourbon Bacon Jam Burger, I must say, it was a flavorful journey that left me wanting more. The burger, crafted with 100% Angus beef, was a perfect blend of juicy goodness and savory delight. Topped with crispy onions and their signature ShackSauce, the burger's taste was elevated to new heights with the addition of the delectable bourbon bacon jam, which featured the delightful taste of Maker's Mark Bourbon.With every bite, the distinct flavors of the ingredients danced harmoniously on my palate. The sweetness of the bourbon bacon jam beautifully complemented the savory beef, while the crispy onions added a delightful crunch. The ShackSauce tied everything together, creating a burger that was both satisfying and memorable. It was evident that Shake Shack takes pride in using quality ingredients to create a burger that truly stands out.The fries that accompanied the burger were nothing short of perfection. Hot, crispy, and seasoned just right with the ideal amount of salt, they were the ideal accompaniment to the delicious burger, leaving my taste buds thoroughly content.Now, onto the dessert. While the Oreo funnel cake had me intrigued with its promising combination of two beloved treats, I couldn't help but feel a tad disappointed. The Oreo flavor seemed somewhat subdued, and the essence of funnel cake was barely discernible. Perhaps my expectations got the best of me, and the combination of flavors didn't quite hit the mark. As a result, I only managed to finish about half of the shake. Nonetheless, I must commend Shake Shack for their creativity in experimenting with unique treats.To cleanse my palate after the meal, I opted for their lemonade, which turned out to be a smart choice. The lemonade was perfectly balanced, offering a sweet but not overly sugary taste that complemented the savory notes of the burger and fries. It provided a refreshing finish to the meal, leaving me feeling satisfied and content.In conclusion, Shake Shack's Bourbon Bacon Jam Burger is an absolute winner, delivering a delightful explosion of flavors in every bite. Their attention to quality ingredients and craftsmanship is evident, making this burger a must-try for any burger enthusiast. While the Oreo funnel cake shake fell a bit short of expectations, the rest of the experience more than made up for it. I am already looking forward to returning to Shake Shack to explore their other sandwiches and sample more of their shakes. If you're on the hunt for a mouthwatering burger adventure, look no further than Shake Shack!

The burger was good and the fries a little overcooked for my taste!The staff was very pleasant. On the other hand there was no atmosphere, just the noise of the kitchen that served as a soundtrack. The restaurant is large and had an outdoor terrace so it is a very appreciable point!

By the time we paid $7 for parking (4 burgers, fries, shakes, root beer float) we spent about $100. No order takers, only kiosks. The energy level that I was accustomed to from a Shake Shack...GONE. 3 4 people in the kitchen area didn't greet us, they talked amongst themselves. Although, they did provide a parting remark have a great 4th of July (that's the only reason I gave Service a star). While we all liked our burgers, the fries were not hot enough, they may have been a bit old. Sorry to say, we will not return.
