We stopped in this weekend and was very pleased. The hamburgers are fresh ground beef and grilled on the flat top. The fries were hot, and the shakes were good. The service at this location was excellent, much better than some of the other Steak & Shakes we go to. When we are in the area we will try this one again. read more

just pulled up to the drive through and jennifer was sooo nice and kind and we felt so taken care of !!!!

Don't expect any kind of good service from your waiter/waitress if you're of a younger age.. I never have any issues with the food though.. Good stuff. I guess that's their redeeming factor. read more

An absolute frustrating inconvenience, slow, the workers were under-trained, and it became a chore just to be in the restaurant. We were seated promptly, which is about the only thing good that came from the night. I forget the name of the young girl with blonde hair who was serving us, but she was quite friendly and was always quick to offer us refills. The restaurant at the time looked pretty slow, only two other tables with about 4-5 people in them were there. After we ordered we ended up waiting for 30 minutes, my friend says let's give it some more time, that 30 minutes ended up being about an hour after we ordered. We so old got tired of waiting and went to the register to pay for our drinks and leave, the lady once she saw us said our food is ready and we can take it to go, so we decided too, but it still wasn't ready. We ended up waiting at the register for another 10 minutes so they could make another burger they ended up not making or something. Finally we got our food and each one of us began paying, my brother was with me and I was paying for him and me. My brother accidentally told then that we got 2 of the Frisco melts, and she charged it on my card, and then she asked me to ring up the crunch burger cause that's what I ordered, I swiped the card then my brother told me I already paid, I told her if she could read our order back to us, We ended up paying for 3 sandwiches when we only ordered 2, and they didn't print me a receipt for any of them except for one burger so that further complicated this whole mess. The young lady left to get a shift manager who came to help. I explained to him the situation, and he looked in the system and said he couldn't find my order and he doesn't know what to do or how to fix it. What, Are you serious?? This guy is the shift manager... I asked if he can just give me a 5$ Gift Card and he said I'd have to pay for it, he asked me could make another burger, but I was not willing to wait another 30 minutes in this restaurant. At that point I honestly just wanted to leave, so he just wrote down and signed note on a receipt that said I get a free meal or something but I doubt I'll ever use it. Afterwards I'm frustrated and I don't want to be there anymore so I just take the note, my food and leave. I get I'm the car and open my meal, and start with my fries, there cold, and stale. Of course. The the jalapeno crunch burger. Its wet, cold, and soggy. And they didn't put the sauce I asked for on it. They didn't even put the sauce that comes with the burger on it. Nearly 2 hours and 17 dollars wasted. I know this is a long review, and I know it won't do anything. But the problem I see with my experience that night is a problem I've seen everytime I've been in there. The workers and completely exhausted and worked out, they are under staffed, they are severely under trained, to the point where they have no idea how to do a simple refund for an overcharged item. They don't really know how to be quick and expedient in a fast food-ish burger chain, and it's so frustrating, that it has made my mind up and I simply won't come back to any steak and shake because I can't stand this place, everytime if it's not one thing it's another. So I don't blame the workers, I blame management. If they happen to read this, please reevaluate your training and management methods, because it's not working, and it's turning people off completely. read more

Joined a friend and his family for lunch today, I have to say this may have been my worst fast food experience ever.. First off we came in the door and waited over 5 minutes before we were even greeted, not even talking about being seated. So when we finally got seated the tables were dirty, there was food on the seats and the floor under the table. I had to ask for cleaning rag so I could wipe down the table and chairs myself, when I asked them to sweep, dude came over and swept under 1 of 4 tables. I definitely wouldn't come back and if it wasn't for my friend I would have left and gone somewhere else. The floors here are dirty beyond belief. read more

always enjoyed the food here. Sometimes it's a bit crowded inside so wait times are horrible. But the drive thu is always open and pretty fast considering your food is made to order. I love thier shakes and anytime I want a fast burger I go through the drive thru. read more

I came here and my double stack steak burger was made sloppy and there was so many mushrooms that I didn't ask for. But the tenders and fries were fresh enough it was just the burger that threw me completely off. Also the price for my food was not really worth it. read more

terrible service. We are the only people there and the waiter showed up 15 minutes later like "whoops sorry". Forgivable I guess because it was 1am. What made me so goddamn mad was that we waited an hour for food. My sister went up to the counter to ask where the food was to only find out that THEY DIDNT EVEN START COOKING FOR THE ONLY TABLE THEY WERE SERVING. Idk if they were all high or just that incompetent. We left. read more

they have dine in eating but you order from a kiosk so thought I would try it and it took 23 minutes to get my food for one person just a burger and fries- I had to ask where my food was so the burger was cold and the bun was stale, fries were hot but nothing else- the food sucked and there were 5 people that I could see behind the counter cooking and taking care of orders but the drive thru was more important than those eating inside - this is my last visit to this location it has been bad for a long time and now it is the worse ever read more

This place is horrible with getting their food out on time. I've been here plenty of times and it's never gotten better

This was the worst and rudest server I have ever experienced. She would not lose the to our questions, rude to our children, and never came to give refills. We won't be back. read more

I brought a bunch of kids in here late last night (16 kids and teens) Service was great. The manager must have come over a dozen times to make sure we were good. Everyone loved their burgers and shakes. I had the fried chicken salad which was fresh. The place was very clean, food was good. 5 stars. read more

i love biting into uncooked chicken and when you tell the manager he says "well the chicken we just cooked isnt raw".... ok karen, look here. raw chicken anyone? eat here they got you covered with salmonella and corona read more

See all

Steak n Shake is lucky they're so cheap or else I'd never come here. Worst service ever. If you're in no hurry & not about to drop dead from starvation, by all means come eat here. But the service is SO painfully slow. The servers don't even seem to care. Management is just as bad. If you complain to them, all they'll do is brush you off. The only reason they are still in business is because the food is cheap & good & they are open 24/7. Horrible. read more

This was an awful experience, food took for Ever to come out and they never came to check up after giving us our food!! Do not recommend at all read more

Dang! Where's the beef? Can I get some steak with that bun, lettuce, and tomato???? Serious $5 plus bucks for that! I have enjoyed a cheeseburger happy meal better than that crap! read more

Great food. Fast service. Hamburger chocolate shake and skinny fries. Yum! Seated guick. Everything was clean.

This place is just plain nasty. Ate their a few weeks ago for the last time. The servers were clearing the tables, placing their fingers inside prior customer's glasses and then serving food and fixing drinks without washing hands. Mentioned this to several friends, most said they stopped eating there along time ago because of either bad service or nasty surroundings. read more

K dont know how still open they make you wait more than 20 minutes to seat you and to take your order another 20 an hour to get your food food is good but their service super slow and is on an area that they know they going to always be busy they put 3 servers to do everything I live 5 mins away from it but I end up going t a different location in oakwood 20 mins away from there they seat you rigth away in there and always clean and have a really god service go to another steak and shake dont go to the one ag mall of ga read more

Rude management. Came in to counter to place a to-go order. Greeted by a pink shirt female manager who offered to take my order. I started giving my order as she started typing at the computer. As I tried to order a second item, she abruptly interrupted me to start talking to an employee. She then asked the employee to come take over my order. The employee offered to help so I tried to complete my order. I tried to verify my order but the first part of order was unaccounted for so I had to start over. I was only ordering 2 meals. Mgmt tip: stop treating customers as just another interruption. You approached me and offered to take my order. Don't bail on a customer interaction you initiated after (literally) 20 seconds. read more

Worst location! Fries were cold and the fresco melt I order was cold. Not worth coming here

I went thru the drive thru here yesterday and got the jamacain ( i know i spelled that wrong i think. But cant think of how 2spell it right now) jerk burger and fries for $3.99. You can get seasoning on the fries which saves them. Those fries are the saddest excuse for a fry i have ever seen. Neway this is about the burger. It was really fast. And let me say i have went 2 burger 21 and gotten 2 burgers and 2 fries for $30+ a couple months ago and it was not even as good as this. So next time go 2steak in shake and save money. But this burger had some kinda sauce and pepper jack cheese. And this steak and shake burger was the best burger i have had in months. Def coming back soon. read more

Never again. We have been here 50 min. We got water 25 min ago. Still no hamburgers and no milkshakes ... Horrible service .

From upstate South Carolina and I love eating at steak and shake, on the way home from Atlanta I decided to stop in here at 11:20, knowing they closed at 12 but was fine with getting in and out very quick. After getting a seat at 11:25 they did not take my order until 12 o clock and then proceeded to tell me what I was able to order was limited due to things being closed. Very disappointed because this is one of my favorite restaurants. read more

Service is terrible today! The server forgot about us, waited forever to get a to-go box and drink refill. Also, the floor looks like it hasn't been mopped in months! Worst service I've ever had here. Hopefully next visit will be much better. read more

My family and I went through the drive through tonight. Service was good, but they were out of the Dr Pepper my husband ordered and out of the Mac and cheese my kids wanted. They settled on alternative items, and we ended up with free fries when they realized that they put fries in our bags for the kids meals instead of the applesauce ordered. So it all turned out ok, but I would probably only go back during their half price happy hour for shakes and drinks from 2-5 am & pm on weekdays, or on the weekend when kids eat free. read more

I don't even want to give this place a one star I have one hour for lunch and spent nearly 40 minutes waiting for hardly anything I will never go back to this Steak 'n Shake ever again read more

Love the value thanks to the coupons. Service was good. Food was good. Only complaint on this visit is standing and waiting 10 minutes to pay our tab when it was time to go. read more

Shitty service. One server, 2 cooks & 3 useless people. Our milkshakes took 30 min. Also saw another table get their food & water at the same time, not including the 10 min they waited to be greeted. Would not come back. read more

Decent food horrible service waitress never brought utensils or refilled our water. Don't recommend at all.

Second attempt eating here, the first was not bad. The second visit I can't speak much about because after sitting for over 10 minutes in a half empty restaurant no one came to take our order. read more

Stood at the hostess station for five minutes with a multiple groups of people. The wait staff just stared at us, walked by eye, and obviously made eye contact, but preferred to ignore us. I like steak and shakes food but customer service here has been on a downward spiral for a while now read more

Hit or miss with this one depending on who you get. When it's good it is good. For a fast food place it really is good. Only thing I would recommend for this location is put an awning over your drive thru so people don't get soaked when ordering in the rain. read more

Today at 11:00pm, I went into this location, passing the HUGE "Open 24 hours" sign. As soon as I walked in, I was grunted at by a man relaxing in a chair and told that they were closed. Confused, I walked out and told a fellow potential customer that they were closed. I'm confused. Does open 24 hours not mean open all day every day??? False advertising. read more

This place is very dirty, dirty tables, understaffed, drinks had floaters, confused staff! Don't recommend

The only reason this place gets a 2 is because I love the food. I expect Steak and Shake to be slow, but not that slow! It took 15-20 minutes to get our drink order. The girl seating us seamed annoyed that we came in and made her work. The waitress looked like she needed a shower and never looked at us. I didn't get the "new" seasoning on my fries that I ordered, nor did my daughter get her shake. To top it all off...this particular Steak and Shake needs a good scrub down. read more

Went there for dinner tonight. Worked late and didnt have the energy to cook at home. Pros..fed a family of 5 for $20. Cons..as stated by everyone else the place could use alot of cleaning. The service is less than tolorable. And it seems people that work there lack common sence. It wasnt busy, maybe a total of 4 tables ocupied when we walked in. They asked how many, there were 5 of us. They walked around for about 5 min looking for a table for us, (there were several tables that needed to be bussed, and a plethora of booths that were already set up)I told them we could take one of the booths because my daughter is 4 and does not take a whole lotta space. The guy walks over to a booth, looks at it, turns and looks at the tables that have been put together to seat about 8 people with all the crap from the people that just left and says lets just wait till they clean up the tables. After another 15 min they seat us. Mind you when we sat at our table i looked over to the booth that i had suggested earlier and it was clean. I guess we exceeded the 2 person max for a 4 to 6 person booth. We waited for another 10 min b4 our waitress showed up. She was very sweet but not very attentive. She took our drink order and when she came back she asked if we were ready to order. My wife looked at her and sarcastically asked, "are these your menus" refering to the little flip cards they leave at every table. She apologized and got us our menus. About a minute later she comes back. Are you ready to order or do you need a few minutes? Really! I just got the#$@& menu. We asked that she give us at least 5 more min. She took our order and the food came relatively quickly along with bill. While we were eating she came by about 3 times to check if everything was ok. When we had finished our meal we discussed getting shakes. (I saw the light on across the street for krispy kreme, i went there). I left my wife and son there and took my daughters to get some hot fresh donuts and gas up at sams for $1.98. On my way out i stopped to let the waitress know thst my wife needed a menu to order some shakes. I was gone for about 20 min. When i went back to pick them up they had just gotten there shakes. My wife says they waited for 10 min b4 anyone, and not our waitress approached them. And to top it off, because she had waited for so long they asumed that it should be to go. If we had wanted it to go, we would have sat through the drive through..... read more

Stopped in to eat before going to a movie at Mall of Georgia. Arrived at 6:10 with a party of 3 and got seated immediately and served by Brittany. She took our drink AND food orders, brought out the waters and the shake and disappeared. Never stopped by to update us on our order, check on us or anything. I guess 30+ minutes is standard service times. I had to find her at the pass thru as she was pulling food and asked her if that was our order. She said no, so I gave her money for the shake and told her to cancel my order at 6:45 to be able to at least attempt to make the movie time. Manager was clueless, as he kept bussing tables and seating new customers. 2 bad health scores and most recent posting was February 2015, should have tipped me. Never go there again. What a shame, as the one in Snellville is so much better run. read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would. My husband and I went for lunch on Monday. There was a loud pitch beeping from the door alarm which I tried to ignore, but ultimately could not take, especially after the waitress didn't bother to take even our drink order in over 10 minutes, so we decided to leave. Before doing so, we asked about the alarm and were told the general manager gad the only key and would not be back in town until the next morning, so it could not be turned off until then. Today, 3 days later, we were in the area again, so decided to stop for lunch. The door alarm was still going off, so they lost our business again. I have tried several times to call and complain, but they won't answer. read more

Went to Steak n Shake in Buford for dinner last night only to find out that the dining room was closed and it was drive-through only. There was a fairly long wait in the drive-through, and when we asked why the dining room was closed we were told it was because there weren't enough servers. What happened? I used to love this place, the food was always great and the service was wonderful! The next time I'm wanting a steak burger, I will call first or drive to the Cumming restaurant. read more
