I've been to Steak 'n' Shake locations in the south, and was thrilled to learn that they're expanding westward. I made it a point to visit when I was in town recently.
The good:
With the word "shake" in your name, you'd better have a good one. And they do! Lots of choices in flavors, even the opportunity to combine flavors for no extra charge.
The not-so-good:
Their food wasn't as solid as other locations I've been to. It felt and tasted more like fast-food than the fast-casual experience I've had before.
The verdict:
It's worth a stop for their shakes for sure. Service was average. The burgers aren't the best, but they're definitely A-OK!
