Ok so it's sort of a catch 22 as to why I have deducted the fifth star..The place is so delicious that the line to get a table (or take out) is ridiculous pretty much ALL THE TIME.
A positive spin on the long wait thing is that it allowed for my party and I to catch up on the latest and greatest going on in each others lives. Then we were sat..
Our server was prompt in taking our beverage orders and his trusty sidekick (or busser) assisted in the timely food and beverage delivery department.
I would like to preface this review on the fact that I am not a red meat eater at all. Every once in a while if the mood strikes me and a lean piece of meat crosses my path I'll take a bite, but that's about it. On this Steak n' Shake evening the exception was made without hesitation.
My "real" order was the guacamole chicken burger and a chocolate shake (hey! you can't eat at steak n' SHAKE without getting a shake!), but I had to order a single steak slider just to say I tried it.
DELICIOUS! If I ever have a craving for some red meat again (rare, but it happens) I would most certainly put Steak n' Shake at the top of my list.
Nothing fancy, just a throw back to diner dining with mouth watering classic burgers and shakes!
If you're in the neighborhood give this burger joint a try; as for the wait, consider it in-person social networking.. like the good ol' days ;)
