    Burger and fries combo
    Bill D.

    I don't usually give a strong review of fast food places, but I come here fairly regularly and this place is consistently good. First of all the food is always fresh and good, I usually come in for a burger and fries because for the price and quality, it can't be beaten locally. This particular location is always clean, always well staffed, the employees are always polite and professional, the service is fast, and although it's a walk-up counter with no table service I believe it keeps costs down and allows the staff to concentrate on the food quality. There is nowhere else in town where you can consistently get a fresh and good quality burger at these prices.

    Polite employees, super shakes, fresh, hot fries, and a clean dining room made our afternoon break very enjoyable.

    Chicken fingers and a Double Steakburger Double Cheese

    This was my first time inside a Steak 'n Shake in probably 6 years. The atmosphere was phenomenal. Had the classic diner vibes with a touch of the current times. I was shocked to see the classic menus had gone away so you can order with a cashier at the register with the menu above them. Karen was super friendly and patient while we over looked the menu. I was super impressed with the fast order times and fast delivery of the food to the table. Food was super fresh and delicious. I ordered the chicken finger combo and my boyfriend ordered a double burger. We were both super excited with the new beef tallow fryer oils, it really made the food taste amazing and I didn't feel groggy or gross afterwards. Totally worth the drive and the money. I really look forward to coming back again soon!

    Yuck a very greasy Triple Steakburger 'n Cheese Steakburger
    Mark S.

    This was just a few years ago one of my favorite places for lunch . Now I remember why I quit eating here. Triple burger extra greasy, cold fries and medium drink $14 ouch. If it's going to be $14 I'd expect much better. The burger is so greasy I put a napkin under it while I at the fries and it's soaked with grease . If the cook would just take a second to press the grease out. I didn't have the heart to complain to Karen. She was the only one out front and very nice. Someone needs to talk to the kids in back . It was so greasy I flipped it over and ate it open face

    Tammy's famous slaw
    Joe H.

    Hello all, Jed "truck driver" Johnson here... It was a long, lonely night on the road, miles rolled by, lot lizards bedded.... Needless to say, I crossed the Georgia line and shore as sheet, I'd worked up a hunger. Now, mostly times a burger would work just fine, hell, even a slice of mommas peecan pie would suffice... But tonight I had a hankerin, a hankerin fur slaw! 12:43 in the a.m. I whipped my rig into the Cartersville Steak n Shake.... Tammy "the tooth teaser" promptly waited on me and said "hey cowboy, what'll it be?" I said "Tammy, hows about some that famous sloppy slaw I've been hearing so much about since Sacramento"... 2 large shakes and a bowl of hormel's later, Tammy brought to me a saucer of sweet succulent success in the form of slaw! Now, I'm from Texas and in Texas, if the slaw comes out dry, you ain't frecklin no toilet bowl I'll promise ya that! What Tammy brought me, well...it's a guaranteed three rest knot stop at the next gas-o-rama fill'n station! I'll let the photos speak for it's self....

    Here's it climbing the wall

    I roach jumped off the wall into my hair and then into the food... worst restaurant experience of my life. Will be calling the health inspectors. And the food was nasty. The fries were smaller than a new born baby's fingers. Floors are nasty. Workers didn't care about my problems. If I could, I would rate it -5 out of 5

    We were going to spend longer than planned at the nearby Booth Museum, so we took a break around…read morenoon for lunch. Had I known how close this place was and had it not been 95 degrees out, I'd have just walked. As it was, I drove past the correct street and it took another 5 minutes to circle the block in traffic. The restaurant was actually within 300 yards of the museum. If you are heading south on Museum Drive towards downtown, Church Street will be the first cross street you come to after the museum. Downtown Cartersville has a large road overpass that spans the train tracks. Under this bridge is a series of shops forming one block of several that make up the whole of the business district. The Appalachian Grill is located on the row of shops under the bridge. An added bonus for us was that there is street parking out front and it was well shaded due to the bridge! There appeared to be one or more public lots within half a block also. The restaurant opened within a minute of when we exited the car. There was a small crowd already waiting, and at noon they opened the doors. I think there was a small fenced patio space along the sidewalk but no one was initially interested in that due to the heat. The interior has a sort of lodge-meets-Frank Lloyd Wright feel in terms of the decor. It is also a bit dim / cozy. I worried that the servers would be overwhelmed by the opening crowd, but they handled it quite well. Our server returned relatively frequently to get our drink orders and later our food requests. There was a slight wait after that, but given the influx of customers, it wasn't as long as I might have guessed. The menu was quite varied, and ranged from salads and burgers up to steaks. This is probably fine dining adjacent in the evenings for dinner. I got a BLT and my wife got a Portobello mushroom sandwich. Both of us opted for the 'steak fries'. The amount of food was surprisingly large! We managed to finish our sandwiches and a few of the fries, but had a take-out box of fries for later too. We both liked our sandwiches. While I tend to like steak fries, these were like the big brother of your average type. They were more like potato wedges than large-body fries. Maybe they are new, as the server asked me at the end what I thought of them. My honest opinion, which I shared, was that they were good, but would be better if the potatoes were peeled and if the size of each fry was halved. We did end up finishing them a few days later. Prices were not cheap but were not out of line for the type of establishment and the quality (and quantity) of food. I might try this place for dinner as opposed to lunch if I came back to Cartersville. I'd certainly recommend it for a meal.

    Was going to come here, but saw some of the posted pictures. Sad…read more Ambience needs to be improved and more inclusive.

This year I didn't want to pay over $200 for the programing. So, I live near Sixers Sports Bar and arrived , 30 minutes before kick off. The place was pretty crowded. There were some seats I was able to find a place to sit down at the bar and it took maybe 20 minutes before I could get anybody to come to that bar and stand behind it and ask me if I wanted a beer or a drink and I ordered a beer so I said I would like to see the Colts against the Baltimore Ravens. Could you bring that up on this TV here in front of me and she had no clue she got the remote control and she was fiddling around with it and she goes. I don't think we have it and I asked her well. Could you get somebody that really knows how to use this equipment and see if they can do better and find the game so she disappears for a while. Another 10 minutes comes by and the game started now and I have my $4.50 draft beer in front of me and some guy fiddles around with it and he goes. No we don't have it. It's not on our system here and I said well. Do you have the ticket he goes? No, we don't have the ticket so they have like DirecTV something like that. But a place that big considers itself a sports bar doesn't have the Indianapolis Colts which is being televised live by CBS Sports in Indianapolis where I was born and raised. So I left and went over to a place that I saw some games last year that for some reason I couldn't get locally and it was modern sports bar on South Tennessee. Guess what? 2 minutes. I was offered a beer 3 minutes. They had the game right in front of me where I was sitting. I was invited to sit down with a Cleveland browns fan who was watching the TV right next to mine and I got to make a new friend which I thought was nice. Now at sixers nobody gave a crap whether I sat with anybody or what you know they had other things to deal with I guess, so I'm not going to give them a real high Mark. In fact, I was really dismayed that they treated me the way they did and couldn't even provide one of the main NFL early 1:00 p.m. games I got it at as much smaller place and a much friendly or crowd.

Ambiance otherwise was cute - the decorations are charming and kitschy. The server we had was kind and helpful. Music and acoustics are loud. Food was alright. I'm vegetarian and while the veg options were ok, I ended up just having some fried pickles. They were really good and you get a reasonable serving. But my friends and I did feel like everything was pretty overpriced for bar food - but I guess this is probably the new norm in this economy.
