A new spot to score burgers, ice cream and hot dogs has opened up shop in the neighborhood. Called Shake Shack, the new addition is located at 6205 Kirby Dr. in Rice Village.
This new outpost for the rapidly expanding New York-based burger chain is the third one in the Houston area.
On the menu, look for burger offerings like a single or double "ShackBurger" cheeseburger topped with lettuce, tomato and "ShackSauce;" a "SmokeShack" burger with applewood smoked bacon and chopped cherry pepper; and a fried portobello mushroom burger, filled with melted muenster and cheddar cheeses.
There's also a selection of hotdogs, as well as a fried chicken sandwich on hand. And of course, Shake Shack offers several different kinds of shakes and floats, including peanut butter, strawberry, and caramel. (You can check out the full menu here.)
Shake Shack is off to a good start thus far, with a three and a half-star rating out of five reviews on Yelp.
Franklin Z., who was the first Yelper to review the new spot on February 28th, said: "A Shake Shack to Rice Village, and I am a happy camper! My friend and I have waited a while for this to happen, and were scouring the news to find out its opening date, so we were so so excited."
Mai P. added, "I really liked the interior. It was spacious and clean. Hopefully they keep it clean as the restaurant just opened!"
Beth B. said, " We got two burgers, fries and desert. Everything was good. Burgers were the best. Nothing bad to say. Glad we tried It and we will be back. One of my favorite burgers in town!"
Shake Shack is now open at 6205 Kirby Dr., so head on over to check it out.
