I think that most people here know that and are talking about designated OUTDOOR smoking areas. And yes, this has been covered ad nauseum here over many years. Simple solution: call the restaurant ahead of time to check thier smoking policy. As a non smoker myself and a somewhat healthy guy I could care less. However, I think that mostly FREE CHOICE enters the equation: the restaurant proprietor has the choice to have a designated outdoor smoking area and you have a choice of entering the establishment or not!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even if the restaurant turns a blind eye to it, I don't smoke out of respect to other diners. I step away to smoke even at a private party at someone's home, even outside, if there are non-smokers who it bothers. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrod Posted November 21, 2021 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 To update the smoking question, it's two young guys who are trying desperately to make a go of it. Immediately upon reading the smoking policy concerns, they responded to this webboard in a mature, positive, and professional way. We went back Friday evening: there is a prominent NO SMOKING sign, they are going to create a two-table area in the open area behind the restaurant's swinging saloon doors for patrons who want to smoke. They have been THE most responsive restaurateurs I've seen pretty much anywhere. And, as the topic says, these are DAMN GOOD BURGERS. Please give them a try: have some complementary popcorn as you wait for your meal to be prepared to order, sit and chat with them in their perfect US-accented English, learn who they are and what they are trying to accomplish, then enjoy a DAMN GOOD BURGER. Thank you, Beto and keep up the good work. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted November 21, 2021 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 Thank you Beto and let's don't turn this into another smoking thread. Will definitely give this place a try AFTER San Andreas.   1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artsnob Posted November 24, 2021 Report Share Posted November 24, 2021 Do they other food than burgers?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oatsie Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 Here's a picture of their menu. Unfortunately, the menu is plasticised so the picture does't show well. Perhaps Beto can post a non-plasticised picture or scan of the menu. Tried the burger yesterday and it really was "Damn Good"!  3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beto Posted November 26, 2021 Report Share Posted November 26, 2021 Am sorry it took so long but here's a picture of our menu, tap the picture to get better resolution. Starting next week I'll have specials that aren't on the menu like the mega burrito, the hash brown sandwich..... Only available once a week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvsdawgs Posted November 26, 2021 Report Share Posted November 26, 2021 Always looking for a good burger, will definitely go and try them out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted November 26, 2021 Report Share Posted November 26, 2021  We went to El Ancla yesterday and my husband ordered the burger. It was HUGE, perfectly cooked and had cheese, plus the usual add-ons. Fries or veggies included. Cost: not much over 100 pesos. I got a bite, but there's no way I could have finished it. This is for hungry folks with a big appetite! I had the chicken burger...also very good and 85 pesos including cheese, fries or veggies. Both are the best we're found. Indoor or outdoor seating. Pleasant staff. Location: West Ajijic, lake side in a small strip mall just past the big gas station.  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvsdawgs Posted November 27, 2021 Report Share Posted November 27, 2021 Finally made it to the Burger Shack and it certainly lived up to expectations. Will be going again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyjillin Posted November 28, 2021 Report Share Posted November 28, 2021 I bbq'd my excellent pedro burgers just the right size 2 days ago with home fries. Now if I could only get somebody to bake kaiser buns for them,I would be a happy camper. Â pedro kertesz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
