    Finally a burger joint with a great burger. Western cheese burger is on hit. I'll go here again, soon. The staff is friendly. The burger was grilled fresh and it came out pretty quick. My coworker got a shake and he said it was on hit too.

    This place is absolutely PHENOMENAL. I have tried so many other burger places, and this one hands down absolutely obliterates every other burger spot. Amazing prices, great service, fast service, and absolutely GREAT food. Their ice cream is delicious, their burgers are phenomenally juicy and great, and their nuggets are just so good and fluffy. Absolutely recommend, hands down a hidden gem. This place deserves way more attention. Great place

    Burger Shack came up on my Google search and had to give them a try. There used to be a different business called Dairy Heaven but didn’t get the chance to try them out before they closed…. with that said here’s my review in regards to food, service and restaurant location. Inside is nice and roomy with seating for about 30-40 people I’m guessing. Location is good but the only drawback is that they’re a little tucked back from the main road and can easily be missed. Parking is wide open but not many marked parking spaces. Restroom is old and outdated and looks kind of nasty in my opinion (they definitely need to remodel the restroom) add new sink, toilet, floors and paint… max $1500-2000 cost. Now onto the food and that’s where they rock!!! The burgers are big and very delicious. Fries are pretty good and they have a good selection of milkshakes. Service was excellent and the owner is very nice and welcoming. Food 5 stars Location 4 stars Service 5 stars

    Good little burger spot. Got the double western with chili fries and a banana shake. It was huge, great portions and fresh made. The burger had great flavor, it's satisfying that beef and cheese craving for sure. Would come back again
