Located in the vibrant Uptown Plaza at Camelback and Central in Phoenix, Shake Shack has earned rave reviews from locals and visitors alike. Guests return for the mouthwatering burgers, highlighted by perfectly cooked patties layered with toppings like crisp bacon and fresh avocado. Jared Wagner emphasizes the commitment to quality; his recommendation of the bacon cheese fries, served separately to maintain their crispness, demonstrates the careful attention to detail that defines this brand. The menu boasts a variety of options, from crinkle-cut fries to rich shakes and decadent frozen custards. Victoria's experience highlights the exceptional staff, particularly Sam, who exemplifies the helpfulness that makes your visit feel personal. Meanwhile, Charlene Wilson recounts the joy of her chicken sandwich, paired with cheese fries, marking the meal as memorable despite its slightly higher price point. Though some diners, like Lil Honey, may yearn for grilled buns or a preference for traditional cheese over liquid, the overall consensus is clear: Shake Shack delivers a quality dining experience. Whether you're enjoying a meal in their spacious interior or on the patio, this location combines delicious food with a welcoming atmosphere, making it a must-visit for burger enthusiasts. Chase Ward echoes the sentiment, promising a return to explore the shakes next time. Give Shake Shack at Uptown Plaza a try—you won't regret it!

Just do it. Can’t decide where to eat? Just go here. You will not be disappointed. Perfect burgers, delicious fries, and friendly staff is all you’ll find at this Shake Shack. Copious amount of onion, ample avocado, layers of crisp bacon, all on top of a perfectly cooked burger. What more could you ask for? I had the bacon cheese fries to go and they even put the cheese & bacon on the side so your deliciously crisp fries aren’t soggy by the time you get home (miniature wooden fork included)! Just eat here and save the disappointment from that subpar burger joint you were thinking about. P.S. ask for their herb-mayo dipping sauce.

My bf accidentally placed our order at the wrong location. I went in to our usual Shake Shack and explained what happened and Sam fixed my problem. What an awesome employee. Always great food and the best employees at the Central and Camelback location!!!!

I loved the food. To me, the burger flavor was right up there with The Habit, Five Guys, Smashburger, or Mooyah. The only issue was that part of the bottom of my bun was very thin/missing, but it was still good. We had bacon cheese fries too. For me, they were fine, but my husband didn't like the liquid cheese sauce. He would have preferred grated cheese like the way Chili's makes Texas Cheese fries. His major qualm with the burger was that the bun was not grilled. He loves burgers with grilled buns. The cost is pretty pricey as well. This location is located in Uptown Plaza and is quite large inside. They have outdoor seating as well. The service was excellent.

This was my first time having shake shack and I am impressed. The burgers are really amazing. I didn’t get a shake but next time I will be having their shakes and a burger. It was very filling and quick service. They had our order correct and we enjoyed the fries and cheese. Higher end burger but worth it and they serve wine and other adult drinks.

Great location! Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Wish they had the dairy free shake like some locations have! Other than that, the place was clean and the food was incredible like always! Love the gluten free options!!

Great food. Great service - the staff were very friendly and the manager stopped by our table multiple times. Smaller portions than expected but still great quality. **There are no combos - you pay for each item separately. We ordered two burgers (one single, one double), two fries, one 16oz shake, and one 16oz beer and the total came to 35. It's a bit expensive compared to other burger joints in the area but definitely worth it!

Hamburger was good, but the Black and White Shake! It instantly reminded me of vanilla shake mixed with chocolate syrup as a kid. Will definitely be back!
