Steak n Shake is an American restaurant that my kids just love! I however, had never been to one,…read moreand when I saw this one at Bicocca, I had to give it a try.
First time around, I ordered a strawberry milkshake. It was a very hot day and I had walked a long way to get there. That milkshake was deeee-licious! Cold, thick, not too sweet, just right. You should get one.
Next time, it was a hamburger with swiss and mushrooms. This was also very tasty and if you like swiss and mushrooms, I recommend it.
Third time I got their classic burger, a hot tea, and a glass of wine. This 'plain' burger is very good. I got a whole pot of tea which was very nice - with sugar on the side, no milk (which was just fine with me). The wine was Okay for a fast food place!
Fries come as a side with the burgers, and I don't really eat many of them. Mostly because the burger is big enough to fill me, but also because I really, really like crispy on the outside fries, and these are just not those fries. Also, because I eat them last, they are usually cold (I am a rather slow eater) so not as appetizing as when they are warm. My fave devours them!
My first visit was soon after they open and the restaurant and bathroom were spotless. On the second visit it was still very clean. On my third visit the dining area was well maintained with staff walking around clearing tables and making everything neat. The bathrooms and dining room floors however really need a nice 'sweep' and perhaps a 'wash' would be a good idea too. The rest of the bathroom was clean however. No issue with their modern facilities.
With offerings that include burgers, wine, beer, soda, tea, coffee, milk shakes, and desserts, in a nice, retro setting, I can easily recommend Steak n Shake if you are looking for an 'American Style' Burger.
