- Nicola KorzenkoOctober 11, 2011duck around the velvet curtain in the lobby of the parker meridien and you'll find this hidden gem.
Sylvain BaillyAugust 2, 2011Nice retro decor and great service: drinks (soda, beers...) and shoulders/neck massage included!
Kevin BelbeyJune 29, 2015$16 for a double cheeseburger (no fry or drink) which tastes just like 5guys or Shake Shack
EvaDecember 15, 2011Cheeseburger with the works. Worth the short wait. Sit and take in the NYC romance...
Shannon CoulsonMay 22, 2014I'm fairly certain I was the only American there - loads of different languages being spoken!
CurtisMay 12, 2012Keep it simple: hamburger, medium rare, mustard & ketchup. And a $1 tip will get you that burger faster.
- Victor Temistocles NardesNovember 19, 2015The meat is cooked to perfection, but that's the only plus. It lacks flavor (needs at least more salt) and they mount the burger so carelessly that I refused to take a picture. Don't bother
Sean WingDecember 26, 2012Great spot for burger and fries, if it weren't for the damn wait in line and tourists!
Dan ThompsonJanuary 20, 2011The food was good, although it ended up being more expensive than most of our other meals. Also the staff are quite impatient & the brownie was a let down. I'd recommend the Shake Shack more I think!
Anyone who is anyone needs to try this place,best burger I have ever had,even had seconds :)
Michael AnthonyOctober 25, 2023Idk what I’m missing here but my burger was over cooked, under seasoned and overall a big letdown given they hype.Upvoted Apr 2
@cfnobleMarch 8, 2011Opens at 11am. The line is out the door by noon. To beat it, get there 11:45 (skip breakfast, you'll be fine)
PelochSeptember 8, 2011Hidden place... Enter the hall of the hotel by the 56 st and look on your right...best burger ever...
No longer the small place of yester-year. They’ve moved into Norma’s old spot.
Wylér SåncåJune 18, 2012Worth it. The price, the wait, the journey through the hotel lobby. Worth it.
Lior ShekelDecember 30, 2018NOT WORTH THE WAIT! Took us over an hour to get in and its no better than a McRoyal. If you’re here just turn around find the next burger joint.

"It’s expensive, but worth it. Grab the theater menu. Those beet + peanut balls are a must. So is their signature dessert. Cocktails are way too expensive, but delicious."

"Great cheeseburger and fries - ask for caramelised onions on the burger! And leave some room for the pecan pie as well"

"My ultimate favourite Shake shack location. Since it's at the park, it can be much less crowded (vs. indoor locations) and you can eat outside when the weather is really nice!"

"No doubt, this place serves one of the best burgers in the city. Together with good music (From a jukebox) and good beer, this is a winner."

"One of my favorite places to get lost in the city. An amazing Oasis in the middle of the cement jungle. Always something for everyone. Make sure to go further in the park and get away from tourists."
Lenny Gallo - 8.4
"Great place for a unique NYC experience; full of colorful screens, restaurants, famous shops, Broadway shows, and street shows. Place for souvenirs. No1 place to see in NYC! A-must-see."
Murat - 9.3
"Best Modern Art collections in the US. The place is vast and you can easily spend the entire day here. The Cafes make it easy to get a meal or just take a break and get a drink."
