Slowly, Danny Meyer's Shake Shack is changing the landscape of the burger world. It started in Madison Square Park in 2001, with a hot dog cart created by Meyer's Union Square Hospitality Group to support the Madison Square Park Conservancy's first art installation. Fans of the cart lined up for three summers until USHG won the bid to open a permanent park kiosk. Then the real fun (and lines) started. The "roadside burger joint" started serving incredibly juicy burgers on potato rolls and rich, thick, creamy custards with mix-ins (concretes), and the best Chicago-style hot dog outside the Windy City. It took until 2007 for the Shack to stay open through winter, but it's since become a New York institution — and spread beyond its borders, immediately ranking among those locales best burgers. Menu additions, mash-ups, and location-specific items have followed at newly launched Shacks in New York, Connecticut, Florida, D.C., Philadelphia, the Middle East, and now London. Location specific items at the Wstport Shake Shack include the Hopscotch, Banana Post Rd, and The NUTmeg State concretes. — Arthur Bovino, 11/20/2012

Expensive for what you get. Too new not to have a huge line. A burger place with NO bacon? Bad idea. Honestly 5 Guys for the win.

Great cheeseburger and shake chain. Order the Double and the Shackago dog. Don't forget a beer or shake with your meal.

Everyone knows about the burgers, but don't forget about the hot dogs. Also, try the cheese fries with chopped sport peppers.

People in Westport are super rude in the parking lot then you see them in line with their tails between their legs. Make sure you have time to kill.

It was great when it was in Madison Square Park, but this growing chain leaves a lot to be desired.

Great food - but 2 burgers, 2 dogs, 1 fries, and a med drink = $27?!? Once in a while place, they need to adjust the pricing.
