  Always a good experience at this location. Only complaint is how slow the drive thru is.   However it's better than going in sometimes.  Quite noisy.  Maybe that's more than one complaint lol.  Anyhow food is hot, good and great holiday shakes !!

  I like this place, it is a chain and it is expanding into the east coast area-with a recent positive review in the WSJ where due to cost of real estate they put a 'walk-up-to-the-counter' place in Midtown.  
  
  This one is near my brother's home and their choice for a quick, inexpensive, excellent burger.  It was clean, well run and full of cheerful people striving to help you.  
  
  I am also a near 'naked' burger person so it was easy to get my burger exactly the way I wanted it.
  
  My nephews love the shakes (I am trying to be good so i stuck to the iced tea).
  
  A three means this is on my short list if I feel like a good burger and don't want to spend much.

  On business trip with west (left) coast.
  
  The BarBQ steak burger is tastier than Carl's (Hardy's) IMHO.  And of course, I could not resist the Orange Freeze shake!  I skipped the fries this time.
  
  I will definitely keep this in mind on my next trip.

  My first time here... we don't have these in California XD
  
  We ordered and got our food  FAST. I was impressed..  I even made that remark to my boyfriend. We got refills w/o asking for them, which is awesome. I think I am a Steak N Shake addict now ;)

  Heh heh, it feels funny to be reviewing a Steak N Shake, but why not? My East Coast transplant of a boyfriend felt that he needed to come here to fully experience the Midwest, and he's right. This is Indy's answer to the concept of a diner. Yes, I understand it's not a diner. And I also understand that it's not really as cool as a diner, but it's what we have, ok? OK!?!
  
  Anyway, as far as fast food goes, I have to give Steak N Shake pretty high marks. On Peter's first visit, I demanded that he try the Frisco Melt, which is my personal favorite. The greasy, fried-tasting sourdough bread, the thin meat, the special sauce...glugh glugh glugh. It's fantastic. He was impressed. I also love the fries, since I like 'em skinny, and if I'm feeling particularly gluttonous, will top them with the deliciously fake-y cheese. Mmmmm. Then, if I really want to burst at the seams, I'll get a milkshake too. They're thick and cold and creamy and all around delicious, though I usually skip the maraschino cherry.
  
  Peter, however, has a pit for a stomach, and the staff here was surprised, amused and appalled to see him eat two full steakburgers (both sloppy with lots of fixin's), plus a bowl of chili and cottage cheese. At least I can say that the snobby East Coast natives can appreciate some of our downhome Midwestern traditions.
