| - I am thoroughly in love with this place. Mainly an East Coast staple, Steak 'n Shake finally opened a location close enough to California -- in lovely Las Vegas. As soon as we saw the sign advertising it on the 15 freeway, we knew no matter what, we had to make a trip to this place that's relatively off the Strip.
So how deeply am I in love with their food? Well, for once, I downed two burgers plus shake in a sitting and took one more to go. When Andrew went to Vegas a week later, I had him bring back to Los Angeles two more burgers for me. Obsessed? I think so. =)
The first burger up was the Wisconsin Buttery Steakburger. I'm not a big fan of onions, but I gobbled up the entire burger, onions included in no time. The two Steakburger patties were not overcooked (just perfect!) and the melted butter and cheese made the nice connecting bridge from the meat to the toasted bun. Addictingly good. Only downside is no green veggies.
Being a guacamole/avocado freak, I had to order the Guacamole Steakburger (pass on the raw onions) next. The guacamole is freshly made and smothered over the two meat patties. Adding in a couple of the thin and crispy fries that come with the meal is a fantastic idea! Another great burger.
The strawberry classic milkshake was thick, creamy, and oh so good! Very much so a classic. Now that I got that down, I'm up to try their side by side shakes, where you can pick two flavors to combine in one glass. Imagine the yummy possibilities!
I have to praise our server for being so wonderful and patient. After being seated, we had ordered only two burgers up front even though we knew we would consume more. We didn't want the second order of burgers to go cold while we were inhaling the first, so we ordered the second ones later. Then, we added in our shake orders. Thirdly, after having three different versions of our receipt, we added in our burgers to go. Really, kudos to our server for being flagged so often to add something in and to change our receipt.
As a testament (what, my review wasn't enough??? =]) to the amazing food at Steak 'n Shake, lines to get a table in the restaurant run about 45 minutes, maybe more if on a weekend. They don't call numbers or put down your name and party size, so you feel like you are in line for a theme park attraction. At least at the end of this line, instead of a 2 minute coaster ride, you get 30+ minutes of deliciously joy!
