| - Confession: I have a weak spot for Frisco sauce. That stuff is delicious.
The last few cities I've lived in have had a Steak n' Shake, and I have to admit it's one of my favorite fast food spots. Perhaps the fast part should be in quotation marks, because every Steak n' Shake I've been to has weirdly slow; don't expect a super fast experience through the drive through. This location is opposite of most in that shakes tend to be made quickly, and burgers are the hold-up. Everyone we've talked to there has been very friendly, although we had one issue with order accuracy and had to go back into the restaurant to get it fixed, and one instance where the drive-thru inexplicably closed 20 minutes early while we were in line.
Drawbacks aside-- and hopefully some of them are new franchise jitters-- for the price, it's good food. The shakes are delicious, and the burgers manage to stay juicy despite their thin size. As I mentioned above, I'm partial to anything with their Frisco sauce, either the melt or the sliders. My husband likes the garlic burger and a few other options. Their skinny fries are always nice and crispy. You can get a lot of the combos for under $4 and all of them for under $7, so it's a good deal.
This should be a two-star review. However, I know I'm going to be a frequent customer so giving them two stars seems hypocritical-- I'm rounding up to three.
