The Shake Shack

Great stop on our way from Chicago to St Louis to go biking. Quaint little restaurant on rte 66 with friendly people and great lunch! Pizza burger like Mom used to make, yummy homemade chips, good old fashioned Blt, and who doesn’t like icecream?! Enjoyed some interesting conversation with a guy riding his bike from San Fran to New York. Not fast food, but worth your time!

Hands down, this place left us speechless! I definitely wouldn’t expect to find a burger this good in a small farm town in the middle of nowhere. The pizza burger was fantastic and my parents really enjoyed the mushroom burger. The shakes are good and the price is right! The meat is definitely fresh and has a great chard taste to it. And if I could recommend something, the cheese balls!

LOVE the new menu! Prices are much more reasonable and the menu isn’t overwhelming. The service is still awesome and the food outstanding. My family will be here much more often.

With the change in ownership a while back, this place is even better. If you’re in Lexington and you want good diner/​malt shop food, go see these people. If it’s a Friday, dine in and get the all u can eat fish. I’m afraid to ask the species, but it’s cooked really well.

Good friendly food with home town atmosphere and friendly service. Awesome malts! I recommend the jr burger or pizza. This is my third time there and love the quaint locals and attentive service.

Great burgers. Chips are homemade but lack any seasoning. Mushroom and Swiss good. Crispy buns. Shakes were well made.

Wonderfully friendly staff — make you feel like you’re a regular even if you just stopped in for the first time. It’s a small, cozy little building that looks like it has history. Our waitress, Melanie, did a great job and was able to turn the heat up when I asked (it was really cold inside!).
Hubby had a burger and homemade chips and said they were really good. The chips were crispy, the burger had good flavor and the portion was just the right size. I had the special of the day which was fried fish and liked it. The pizza that others were ordering looked great though and if we ever have the opportunity to stop here again, I will definitely be trying that. We did order shakes to go and because hubby was driving and couldn’t use a spoon, he thought they were too thick — I didn’t have that problem though and I thought it was very good!
I would give this little spot 5 stars except I felt like one of the young girls who worked there (she acted like she was an owners daughter) kept turning the heat down to 60 because she was hot when everyone else in the restaurant was obviously cold.

I was here right when the new owners started up and they had to work out some small kinks but this visit i ordered the gyro, which is the special on a saturday along with patty melts, and things are running smoother! It was made more like a gyro platter instead of a sandwich which i liked. Four slices of grilled meat layed across a grilled pita bread with onions and tomato and feta cheese on the side along with the cucumber sauce. I was pleasantly surprised. My sides were ff and pasta salad. The fries are crispy and not greasy at all… very good! The waitress is one of the owners and is very nice and always asking if you need anything. Her husband is the other owner and he is the cook. Come try the food, which is the same menu, and meet the new owners. Lets all support their business! They are only closed on mondays now and have new specials. Homemade pizza served now all day everyday!

This restaurant is a very quaint and homey feeling place. It can set around thirty people and the staff was very friendly. I’m sad it is in such a hidden place because I love to support mom n’ pop places like this one.
The food was good. You can tell the burgers were made fresh and not frozen. Their chili has beans and my friend did it was superb! I had the Philli Cheese Steak which was also homemade and fresh. Not the typical meat — it was really good and the flavors mixed well. Their onion rings were decent, and their chips were homemade.
My buds say their shakes are off the hook! The ice cream is thick, so the shakes are thick. I would recommend this little shack to anyone in the area. Support the mom n’ pops. Don’t forget to leave your mark on their wall, and look for the SVD novices 2014 – 2015.

Just made 1^st visit to the shake shack. Incredible lunch! My wife had chili cheese burger. Huge portion. Fresh ingredients. She can’t believe she ate it all!
I had the pork tenderloin. Homemade, thick piece of delicious pork. Lighted breaded. Definitely the best tenderloin I’ve ever had.
Had fries and slaw and two cokes.
Less than $ 14 for us both.
You won’t want to miss this place.

I love my burgers and I love my shakes… And I travel like crazy… Hands down, The Shake Shack ‘s Moo Cluck Oink is one of the best, if not the best burger I can remember having. And that Chocolate shake was outstanding. We got off that exit and Mcdonalds was not an option. Finding The Shake Shack was the best afternoon possible and going that mile and some off the exit was more than worth it!!!

OMG. Must stop for the homemade onion rings! Wish I would have taken the time to stop for a full meal. Onion rings were unbelievable! Best I have ever eaten!

Absolutely, 100% worth the two mile drive off the freeway. Do NOT settle for a McDonalds burger when you can hit the Shake Shack. The Jason Jr. and the Moo, Cluck, Oink, are absolutely divine. Melty cheese, crispy bacon, and thick, frothy milkshakes.
Go! You won’t be disappointed.

Cute hidden gem a little bit off 55. Amazing fresh homemade food and fast service! Homemade onion rings are a must. Friendly staff, clean atmosphere. Glad we ventured a little bit off the highway to find something beyond Subway and McD’s.

I give this five stars mainly because of nostalgia. My family would go here on summer evenings and get ice cream. It’s just a fun little place. The food is good, too, actually.

The food is always prepared fresh and they have a good selection to offer. Usually have different specials of the day as well. And if you are looking for ice cream they offer a great selection of that from shakes to cones and more.
