While I do enjoy Steak and Shake, the atmosphere and service seems to be uniformily mediocre at all locations. The dining area is overcrowded even during slow periods. People who work at S&S are universally detached and disinterested. I've never actually seen a S&S that had a clean floor. Yet I still go here to eat sometimes because the food is decent. I like the 3-way chili, better than Skyline IMHO. The burgers beat any of the fast food chains by a mile. I just wish the dining area was cleaner and the service staff actually cared.
Review Source:Been hearing about Steak N Shake for years... supposedly they are coming to CA?? We'll see!?
This location was across the street from our hotel.
I had the Frisco Melt........... delicious!!
Fries... delicious!!
Also tried the 99 cent breakfast tacos a couple mornings.
Egg & Potato and Bean & Cheese... good for a quick and cheap breakfast on the road!
This place has good burgers, or maybe they just taste better when you don't have the place around the corner from home!?
Probably a good thing they don't have Steak N Shake in CA. I would probably eat there too often!
Open 24 hours too!
Steak and Shake=Food coma. Â Shoestring french fries, great fast-food steak burger, delicious beef soup, perfect-tasting chocolate malt (MALT, not shake). Â How can a fast-food chain be this good? Â And they're open 24 hours!
And why aren't they in California?
8/25 2:30 AM: Â I was at a cousin's till after 2 AM visiting and reminiscing and was hungry when I got back to the motel area so I swung back in here and just got a bowl of beef veggie soup and a single steakburger. Â Both were just delicious. Â I do not eat hamburgers. Â I have had three hamburgers this past week. Â Help!
9/2 I just wanted a light dinner so I stopped in here again at 10pm (hey--it's right across the street from my motel) and decided to try their "5-way chili"--chili over spaghetti with cheese and onions on top. Â Good decision! Â It was delicious! Â So I ate for under $5 (well, $6 with tip). Â I'm happy.
