Shake Shack Roma Cibeles — Restaurant in Mexico City

Second-visit impressions: Since everyone in the States rates Shake Shack's chicken sandwich as the best, I tried one with bacon and avocado and was not impressed. The meat was dry, chalky, and overcooked. And, my mistake, but I don't think avocado by itself belongs on a burger. If you've already got cheese, why add another fat that you can't even really taste and that slides around inconveniently underneath the bun? Guac maybe, but not avocado wedges on their own. Plus, $15 USD for a burger is also kind of crazy!

I didn't change the rating because the burgers are still top-notch.

Believe it or not, this is the first time I'd tried Shake Shack, so I can't make comparisons to the States.

I was still on a mission to find a good smashed burger after the Chubbies disappointment (I changed my mind on that after a second visit), and Shake Shack has been on one list or another since I saw the recipe for the Fake ShackBurger on the Serious Eats website.

I ordered a double which was still cheaper than the flat-as-a-pancake Chubbies burger I had the day before, altough it didn't include fries.

This is a real smashed burger, with a nice brown crust all over and sufficient juicy-cow flavor for any burger fan. What else can I say? It was exactly what I was looking for. It fit the bill so perfectly that I don't think I even needed the second patty.

Making a good burger does require technique but it's not as hard as non-Stateside burger joints make it out to be based on the results. Jeebus.

Some quibbles: I'm not a fan of the shakesauce, to be honest, although I thought I would be based on the ingredient list. I will leave it off the next time. The lettuce wasn't even a full leaf but rather a tiny triangle cut out of one. WTH? Is this some cost-cutting measure? Who could even taste that?

The crinkle-cut fries were good although I would have liked them better had they been browned a bit more. Not my favorite style of French fries, either, but solid.

BUT where are the pickles? No dill pickles on the burgers? Is that not a Shake Shack thing?

I also tried the mildly hoppy Shakemeister (Shackmeister?) Ale. It was fine. I like a beer with my meal and so appreciated the option.

I'll be back, but not for a while. That doble hit my tummy...

This place is doing everything right. The food is great, the prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly and efficient. The owner of this branch is very involved in the day-to-day operations of the restaurant. I have visited on several occasions and have noticed the owner greeting customers at the door, offering to take customers' trays when they are finished, building rapport with his staff, and being proactive to ensure every customer has a great experience. This is EXACTLY how an owner should run a restaurant. By helping out with the tasks of the employees, he sets a wonderful example for all the workers and helps to create a great atmosphere! I'll be back....
