  • Good Sweets, Bad Eats

    Jan 14 '04
    Pros: Shakes. 24 hours.
    Cons: Small burgers with a big price, tipping your server and skinny tasteless french fries.

    Summary: NOTE: Steak N Shake has 380 locations in eighteen states throughout the south and Midwest of the United States. This Steak n Shake is one of the biggest scams ever when it comes to their burgers. They want you to believe that their burgers are not ...

  • Very Good Shakes, but Mediocre Burgers

    Apr 02 '01
    Pros: Quick service, Good Shakes
    Cons: Burgers are not what you expect; Prices are High for what you get.

    Summary: Steak and Shake is a fast- food/diner style restaurant that was founded by Gus Belt, in Normal, Illinois, in 1934. This restaurant has been expanding rapidly and it now has about 376 locations in seventeen states throughout the south and midwest. This ...

  • Steak 'n Shake...no, the burgers don't cause Parkinson's

    Mar 22 '04
    Pros: 'n Shake
    Cons: Steak

    Summary: It was Saturday night. Both Hunny and I were tired, hungry and cranky. Actually, it wasn’t me who was cranky, but let’s not get into that right now. Anyhow, we were in desperate need of food, and as usual, had nothing at home we could prepare. ...

  • Nothing to Shake Your Steak About Here!

    Apr 03 '06
    Pros: Some good menu items, open late
    Cons: Food quality is inconsistent, lack of personality, bland atmosphere, everything costs extra

    Summary: Hubby and I stopped at Steak ‘n Shake on the way home from work tonight. It wasn’t that it was bad, but it was the same as it always is…generally unexciting. While there are a few yummy menu items, I’m going to give Steak n’ ...

  • Steak 'n Shake - Shake Your Buns and Chili Up to the Table

    Sep 05 '04
    Pros: Open 24 hours. Cute decor. OK food.
    Cons: High priced for what you get. Slow service.

    Summary: I was really expecting some kind of sirloin steak like the Foster’s low-price steak house here in town or, at the very least, steak-um type thin sliced steak on a bun when I went to Steak ‘n Shake. From the outside, I had gathered that Steak ...

  • In Sight, It Must Be Right! Is this Fast Food or Not? Steak 'n Shake

    Jan 21 '04
    Pros: Good tasting burgers and chili.
    Cons: High prices = poor value. Many menu items of dubious quality.

    Summary: What??? The "In Sight..." tag line means that because you can see the cooking area, the quality of the food must be better because the cooks won't serve a burger that's been dropped or worse yet, with boogers. (Don't laugh - I've seen it happen.) So ...

  • Steak 'n Shake: Hold the Steak and Bring on the Shake!

    Dec 26 '04
    Pros: The best shakes ever.
    Cons: The rest is exceedingly ordinary.

    Summary: Growing up I have extremely vague memories of eating at Steak 'n Shake with my siblings. I think I must have been only five at the time. When I moved away from home I stopped seeing Steak 'n Shake restaurants and I quickly forgot that they even ...

  • Steak N' Shake - Lousy Fast Food Served on China by a Wait Person

    Mar 12 '07
    Pros: Good shakes and fries, china, flatware, wait staff.
    Cons: Low quality food, way overcooked burgers.

    Summary: As I’ve said before I pretty much loathe fast food aside from the occasional drive-thru breakfast when we’re in a hurry and need food on the run. Beyond a breakfast sandwich there is absolutely nothing appealing to industrial grade beef ...

  • Iffy Eats

    Jun 24 '05
    Pros: Retro decor, open all night
    Cons: Questionable cleanliness

    Summary: I used to live close to a Steak & Shake and I remember visiting it at least a couple of times. My friend found a hair in her cheese fries while we were eating there once. Other than that, the visits weren't very memorable. Recently I visited Steak & ...

  • Suck all you want but it will not get up

    May 13 '08
    Pros: Clean, well lit, great diner motif, lots of staff that gets orders out quickly
    Cons: Too thick shakes&burgers, so many staff that they are bumping into each other

    Summary: Shhh, if you will not tell...I will tell you my dark secret about Steak 'n Shake. I was a mystery shopper at our local Steak 'n Shake for years! Bad for them but free food for our family! Bad for them because I did not care for this restaurant at all! I ...

  • The Inside Scoop on Steak 'n Shake

    Sep 27 '05
    Pros: Cooked to order, high-quality ingredients,great milk shakes, nice family atmosphere
    Cons: Inconsistent service

    Summary: First, let me warn you - this review is probably biased. I worked in various management capacities for Steak 'n Shake for almost 11 years, until last November. I left the restaurant chain to pursue other things, and I have pretty positive feelings ...

  • Sugar and fat! The best I've ever had

    Apr 27 '11
    Pros: Tastes great!  Great price!  Best balance of those two factors!  Also, very colorful  :)
    Cons: Seems like it MIGHT be unhealthy...a little...or a lot  :P

    Summary: OVERVIEW:For a while, I thought of Steak N Shake as "my new favorite toy."  The taste- of the burgers, toppings, and milkshakes- is very tantalizing, and nowhere else have I seen a restaurant so skillfully balance that taste with good ...

  • A classier, slightly more upscale Checkers.

    Feb 15 '02
    Pros: Good burgers and excellent shakes.
    Cons: Not as upscale as it claims to be.

    Summary: Steak And Shake is not a steakhouse, despite what the name may lead some people to believe. So don't go into one expecting to order fillet mignon with a wine on the side. Steak And Shake takes its name from its famous BURGERS which it calls Steak...

  • The Definition of Ho-Hum

    Dec 08 '10
    Pros: Good deals, shakes, always open
    Cons: Mediocre food, slow service

    Summary: Despite the scrumptious shakes and a blitz of promotions and deals, Steak N Shake suffers from bland food and uninspired atmosphere. I can only recommend this restaurant when there's nothing else available (being a night owl, this happens more often than ...

  • Can One Woman Single-handedly Save A Restaurant Review?

    May 19 '00
    Pros: Open 24 hours, Great Strawberry Shortcake, Real Fountain cherry cokes!
    Cons: A bit steep price wise.

    Summary: You know you are addicted to Epinions when you base your decision of “where to eat” on which restaurants you haven’t reviewed yet. I’m addicted, I’ll admit it. I turned down some friends for the movies because I’ve already written an epinion on it. So...
