| - Here are some things you should know about the Steak and Shake on Mill Avenue:
This is not the Steak and Shake "Classic store" with the bow ties, the drive thru, the breakfast menu, and whatever you may be used to in the Midwest. This is a "Signature store", which means beer, wine, faster ticket times, and the prized posession: the Signature Steakburger.
Classics don't have the Signature , and it's a 6 oz patty and takes 4.5 minutes to cook, and has red onions instead of white. Otherwise it's the same as the Original Double, with (from top to bottom) ketchup, pickles, onions, patty, tomato and lettuce. At the time of this review, you can add bacon, grilled onion, Frisco sauce, mustard, or mayo to it.
Do not walk up to the cashier and ask for "the steakburger", saying that shows them you failed to correctly read the menu and will assume you mean the Signature, or ask you to clarify.
Not shown on the menu but can be ordered are the single steakburger (same dressings as double), junior steakburger (no dressings), junior grilled cheese, and regular grilled cheese. Junior orders have junior fries.
There are no meals/combos, but everything implicitly comes with fries (or a chili cup). You can say you don't want fries and that shaves off some of the cost. They don't have Steak and Shake Seasoning but do have others: Cajun, Parmasean Cheese and Herbs, Salt and Vinegar, and Sea Salt and Cracked Pepper. A small fry and a regular fry mean the same thing. And a large fry is huge.
There is only one size of drink, but 2 sizes of shake. A large shake and a regular shake mean the same thing, and are the same size as the drink cup.
They know that the menu sucks and is not as good as the Classic, but that is out of our control. There is a way to send feedback to Steak and Shake corporate, and that is where your voice will be heard, not on yelp.
