Editorial Review for Steak 'n Shake – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Entering the clean, bright interior is like stepping into an "Archie" comic book. Hurrying across white- and black-checkered floors, staff in crisp white shirts and paper hats take orders, polish chrome and shuffle between booths and the full-service counter. Middle-American diner standards dominate the menu--pickle-covered steak burgers, chili cheeseburgers and thick shakes. Healthier options include chicken, chef and taco salads.

After going to Cracker Barrel (too crowded), IHOP (too crowded, and Village Inn (closed down), we decided to have breakfast at Steak 'n' Shake. We got seated quick enough, folks were friendly enough, and the place looked clean enough. There wasn't much of a crowd for a Sunday morning, so you'd think the service would be faster than it was. But it was hot, so that's OK. What isn't OK is finding a long, black hair in your mean, half-way through eating it. Needless to say, the manager didn't make us pay. And, also needless to say, we won't be going back.
Pros: Priced good but reflects serving sizes
Cons: Take a look at your meal before you eat

I had a great experience at Steak and Shake. Our food came out super quick, our server was pleasant and keep our drinks filled. Also, the food was great. I had the frisco melt and it was Yum-O. The strawberry milkshake was nice and thick. I can't wait for my next burger there.
Pros: Food is made fresh to order!
Cons: Very South!
