Review The Shack - Los Angeles

Burgers and fries! Classic. Pretty good food. Nice atmosphere. Close to the beach!

If you're ever in need of a great dive Bar near the beach with large drinks, lots of alcohol and a great price, this is definitely the place to go. Great bartenders, great cooks and servers and real good bar food, you can't go wrong at all. Parking sucks so take an uber. There also tend to be a lot of police in the area so just be careful cause you will get loaded there easily. It is definitely a good time every time I've gone. Try the cheeseburger and the potato skins. They are my favorites!

I was searching for a place to get dinner and came across this gem. The burger was delicious (they put a sausage link on top of which was a delightful surprise!) and the portions were great! The staff was some of the friendliest I’ve come across while in the city, and very pleasant to interact with. I think the place is probably more for locals, but please don’t hesitate to come in here if you want a layed back place to get a burger or a beer!

Neighborhood dive bar with reasonably priced food & drinks. Some evenings they have karaoke & live musicians. The parking lot is now the outdoor seating area but there's a pay for parking lot across the street. 5/5 Shack Burger is a must try if you're visiting. It's always delicious and juicy. 5/5 Onion rings & fries

Treasure gem of a spot to get a good burger. The Kelsey Burger is a favorite that comes with bacon and avocado. Burgers priced around $10, comes with fries. Salads are delicious, I like the BBQ chicken. All salads are under $10 and are huge portions. You can smoke while you drink so long as you smoke on the patio. Eating is allowed there too so if you’re a smoker, this place is very comfortable. Even if you don’t smoke, there is plenty of indoor seating that is non smoking. Employees have been there for a long time and are super nice, adding to the perfectly beachy local feel. Relaxed and casual vibes. Full bar. Credit cards accepted. Park along the streets.

Fist time here.. loved the burgers and of course had to try the funnel cake fries 😋with icing to dip. So good. Also had the zucchini fries, very good. From the outside, you prob won’t give it a second look. But worth the stop. Parking is challenging, but what’s new in Cali 😎

The Shack is great. Joey, Greg, and everyone else who works there are awesome. The food is amazing, my only complaint is the kitchen closes rather early, I believe at 9 pm so make sure you get your food order in before you forget lol. Go on a Friday night for some karaoke 🎤😄

It's been 10+ years since I last ate lunch here, and the best thing about it is that the Shack Burger 🍔 is still fabulous!

Had the Shack Cheeseburger that came topped with a Louisiana style sausage link. It was incredible, very juicy and tasty. Also had the funnel fries that were absolutely killer. Service was very tentative and friendly. Definitely recommend this place right before or after a flight. 12 minutes away from LAX. Have your vaccination card ready otherwise you have to sit outside.

Been coming here since high school when my pals told me about their famous shack 🍔 burger. So that is what I ordered. Except carbless...no bun. Lol They celebrate 50 years this weekend.

Arrived with my son yesterday for a cold one and a burger on a hot summer day. The staff was friendly, the beer was ice cold, but the burger...... Wow! Out of this world! It was seasoned perfectly and was one of the best I have ever had. The tater tots were crispy and perfectly seasoned as well. Can't wait to get back to the shack!

Super dope staff. Brought my nine year old in (he's a well behaved old soul) and they treated him like a regular. Great vibe from this place and thanks to staff working on 3/2 at noon for making it an experience he won't forget.

I absolutely love the place. Seems like the last place where one can experience a taste of Southern California . The small town local business that has been pushed out by nationwide chains elsewhere. The place truly bohemian. So, expect locals smoking cigars, locals watching football all day, or kids hanging out after playing v-ball at the nearby beach. Their Shack burger is great; second best I've EVER had. Sorry, can't tell you where the beast one is offered. Hint - truffle burger of the menu in West LA ;)

Great burger!!! Parking was a bit sparse but the food makes it worth it.

Philip Barrett

Great burger, friendly service, great location! Perfect hang place after a day hitting the waves.

The best burgers in the world! This is my home away from home. I have been coming here for 32 years and highly reccomend this place.

Something about a shack burger just hits the spot . Great food that never gets boring , nice ice cold drinks friendly environment close to the beach

Nice little spot to hang out with few friends. Their burgers are great. The only thing is that I had to wait nearly 20 minutes for my food.
