Confirming other reviews. No dedicated fryer, so no fries. But the burger with a lettuce wrap was great. They were careful to avoid cross contamination. Be sure to ask which burger toppings are GF, as some are not.

They offer a gluten free bun for the burgers. It was tasty and toasted. They do not have a separate fryer, so I skipped the fries. No other sides offered. They burger was delicious!

I have been GF for 4 months now. The gluten free bun here is one of the best I have ever had from a restaurant. They also made it a point to ask if I had an allergy or if it was preference. When I said allergy, they made sure to pack my burger in a separate bag and took noticeable measures to ensure no cross-contamination. Would recommend this location!

If you’re by New York, New York, stop at the Shake Shack. Delicious food for reasonable prices. I ordered at the counter so I could ask questions about the Shake Sauce, which is gluten-free. The gentleman behind the counter was very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu, which gave me great relief. I ordered on a gf bun the avocado bacon burger and my husband and I split a regular fry. It was all delicious!! The bun was $.99 more which is cheaper than I’ve ever seen! And it was really good!! I would definitely recommend and eat here again on our next visit to Vegas!!

I ate here last weekend and I was totally okay. I just ordered a single patty wrapped in lettuce. I made sure that they cleaned the grill before cooking my burger and the workers changed their gloves. Very good.

Kiosk available was great for ordering and double checking allergens. The staff came and double checked on our order, and we discovered that we had inadvertently left the fried pickles on the burger. So appreciated the double check!

Gluten allergy stickers were used but didn’t amount to much, girlfriend got glutened and became very unwell on a cross-Atlantic flight. We were told there was a separate fryer for fries but suspect there was not…
