And burgers? Talk about a category loaded with Texas-sized opinions. All the more reason to celebrate Shady\u2019s in Lake Highlands, which marks the big \u201cone-oh\u201d this week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Back in 2016, Shady\u2019s launched near the intersection of Walnut Hill and Audelia in Lake Highlands. The aim was always to be a family-friendly neighborhood watering hole, and it succeeded. To celebrate 10 years, they\u2019re running specials all week, making it a great time to get (re)acquainted. <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve long loved Shady\u2019s and have put their many Reader\u2019s Choice awards from this publication to the test \u2014\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasobserver.com\/food-drink\/shadys-celebrates-10-years-of-burger-greatness-16353305\/\">it\u2019s passed<\/a>. Our favorites include the El Shady ($12.50) with chorizo, fried egg and grilled jalape\u00f1os. And the Holy Guacamole ($13.95) has guac, cheese, bacon and a garlic aioli. The most popular burger at this location is the Tailgater with two patties, bacon, American cheese, and Shady\u2019s secret sauce.<\/p>\n<p>Shady\u2019s makes most of everything on the menu in-house, including the buns. All-Angus beef patties are hand-formed in-house daily and never frozen. Other scratch-made items include the chicken strips, which are quite popular here. And the milkshakes are amazing, especially since you can add liquor to them. Ever had a caramel pretzel milkshake with rum or vodka?
