As a person from the Midwest I've really missed the steak n shake taste. The steakburger thing is really really tasty. It's a Midwestern thing. There's another restaurant chain called Freddys it does really well. But steak and shake really takes me back to the old days.
The great.... The burgers. A tastegasm. These are amazing.
The not great... The music is a bit loud. Also they do the fries different in three 'signature' restaurants. They are not close to the Midwestern taste. The manager explained it to me. Props to him for taking the time.
The poor... The location. Downtown Tempe is a nightmare for the working adults with jobs who have cars. This may be a great location for bike, but it's not good for car driving working adults.
Overall... Great burgers
