If you ever happen to find yourself in the Bahamas, be sure to visit the restaurant that boasts its own aquarium and a unique menu.
The eaterie has been dubbed the “world’s best Shake Shack,” located on Atlantis Paradise Island. Just 35 minutes away from Miami, Florida and accessible with a day pass or via cruise ship , the restaurant was recently lauded on TikTok by luxury travel expert, Nicole Sutherland.
“I think I found the coolest restaurant in the world while travelling recently,” Nicole began in her video. “Typically, restaurants that have underwater features like this require reservations and [are] expensive – but this one didn’t and it’s super unique.”
Nicole went on to show off the establishment’s features, with dining tables overlooked by huge tanks of aquatic life – most notably sharks swimming just feet away from customers. She added that while the island has “tons of dining options,” Shake Shack offers the best value for money and the “most unique experience on offer.”
“This restaurant is actually a Shake Shack bar,” she continued. “And yes they do also serve drinks here. We dipped in around lunch time and I was honestly surprised the place wasn’t slam packed because it’s right in the middle of all the water parks.”
Nicole opted for a cheeseburger and chips and cheese, coupled with “standard Shake Shack fare” and a limited edition Sunset Shake she described as “incredible.” She concluded: “Of course, the tables with the views are the best part.”
“This is unreal,” gushed on her 1.5 million followers. “Everything about this place is amazing,” added second.
A third spoke from experience: “Just got back from the Bahamas on Thursday, we lived at Shake Shack while we were there! So good.” Whilst a fourth person added in excitement: “So cool! We are going in 12 days we got to stop here!”
According to the Nassau Paradise Island tourism website, Shake Shack serves “elevated versions of American classics using only the best ingredients. It’s known for its delicious made-to-order Angus beef burgers, crispy chicken, hand-spun milkshakes, house-made lemonades and more.”
Also on the menu are “special Bahamian flavours” including Paradise Crunch salad, listed as shredded red cabbage, yellow cherry tomatoes and corn, house pickled red onion, watermelon radish and plantain chips on a bed of arugula and crisp romaine topped with crispy Chicken Bites. Served with Avocado Green Goddess Dressing or tangy Herby Lime Vinaigrette.
And the aforementioned Sunset Shake is a concoction of mango passionfruit custard swirled with guava strawberry purée topped with mango, hibiscus and dragon fruit powder.
