    Butter finger milkshake
    Rose G.

    Decided to dine in at Steak 'n Shake since I haven't been inside in ages. The place was pretty clean. They have a kiosk that you use to play your order for dine in or to go. So they have definitely upgraded to new technology since I've last been to a dine in location. I order a butter finger milkshake which is my favorite. It was delicious and definitely needed on this hot day. I also ordered one of the meal deals, where you get a burger and fries for less than six bucks. So I was totally happy with the price! Burger was great per usual and love their fries. The only reason why I'm giving them 4 stars is because there seemed to be a man camping out in the restaurant which was unsettling for me as a female, he didn't bother me but still unsettling. The food and shake came out fast. Definitely will be back to Steak 'n Shake.

    Nutella Shake (With EXTRA Everything!) AMAZING! This may be dinner tomorrow night as well!

    This Nutella shake with extra everything was a great choice for tonight. In fact, I may order this for dinner tomorrow night!

    Kiosks to order food! Fast friendly and food was made fresh. Plenty of indoor seating .

    Excellent food. Polite (& accommodating) service despite an extremely busy drive-thru (we chose to dine in). The workers have to get everything since nothing is available to the table- no ketchup, napkins or sauces. Felt bad for the people working near the counter & we had to keep walking up to the counter if we needed anything. You can see that management has limited customer access to water & condiments for dining in- guessing they've had problems with folks stealing drinks there or just trying to keep their costs lower. Feels like a lot of places still struggling with staffing & recovering supplies post-pandemic. Our table was dirty but everything had been bussed. So the 3 stars is for the great food & the kindness of the staff.

    A milkshake that was quite delicious which is why there was only half. Nice atmosphere and service. They even have a claw machine. Super cool

    Great experience at steak and shake. The fries are thin crispy and perfectly salted. Great on on their own and good dipped in a milkshake. The milkshake has a perfect consistency... wonderful prerogative chunks spread throughout and a nice girthy straw. The star of the show is the burger. Two Pattie's so juicy and tender. The bun is soft and buttery and American cheese compliments the meaty Pattie's. Overall a huge success and will be back.

    We were trying to find fast food open on Thanksgiving and we finally found Steak n Shake. As expected, it wasn't crowded on Thanksgiving. We were seated pretty quickly. I got an eggnog milkshake and a Frisco melt with fries. The milkshake was quite good. I was actually pretty disappointed by the Frisco melt. It was a lot drier than normal. It definitely needed more sauce and I think it was overcooked. The fries are thin for my taste, but they were ok. The service was just ok. It took us a long time to get our food even though the restaurant was mostly empty. We were never bright our check, so we eventually just went up to the register to pay without it. For the most part, this is your standard Steak n Shake.

    I hadn't intended to eat in a good pavilion today, but we ended up here. I landed on Famous…read moreHarriett's Hamburger Sandwiches, not expecting much. It was an excellent burger. Sometimes simple of the way to go. Lettuce, American Cheese, tomatoes, crinkled pickles, onions, and their "good good sauce." This all came together with the 100% premium angus beef (antibiotic and hormone free) smash-burgers perfectly cooked. The fried were very good, nicely crispy, but not overdone. Service was friendly and very quick. I highly recommend this place if you want a great burger.

    Located inside the lively Optimist Hall, Harriet's Hamburgers is a great stop if you're craving a…read moresimple, well-executed smash burger. Optimist Hall itself is a very food-centric, upscale food hall with a ton of vendors, so the atmosphere is energetic and fun. Seating can be a little challenging during peak dinner hours since so many people are grabbing food from different spots, but when the weather is nice there's plenty of outdoor seating. Harriet's keeps their burger formula refreshingly simple. It's a classic smash burger done right--made to order with a straightforward menu that doesn't overcomplicate things. There's usually a line, but it moves pretty quickly, and the burgers come out hot and fresh. One of the best parts of eating here is the flexibility of the food hall experience. While you're waiting, you can grab a craft beer, a glass of wine, or even browse for dessert from one of the other vendors. Insider tip: Come with a group if you can. It's a great place to share fries and let everyone explore different vendors around the hall. Parking is fairly easy with the nearby garage, which makes the whole experience even more convenient. Overall, Harriet's is a fun, delicious stop for a smash burger, especially if you're already enjoying the energy of Optimist Hall.

    As a West Coast transplant now living in Charlotte, I have very specific standards when it comes to…read moreburgers. For me, the gold standard isn't fancy -- it's balance. Think that perfect meat-cheese-bread ratio you get at an In-N-Out: not too big, not too messy, not dripping everywhere, but still juicy and satisfying. A burger you can actually pick up and enjoy without resorting to a knife and fork like George Costanza. That's why I appreciate Ace No. 3. Their menu is refreshingly simple -- burgers, fries, shakes -- and that simplicity tells me they know exactly what they do well. Everything is made to order, and the consistency shows. The Ace burger is my go-to, and it delivers every time. The shoestring fries are excellent, and the sweet potato tots are another favorite. I've also treated myself to a milkshake here and there, and they're worth it. Fun bonus: they offer "boozy shakes" for adults, which adds a playful twist -- just note they have to be enjoyed on site. They also keep a short, rotating list of beers, which I appreciate. It's curated, not overwhelming. One thing I noticed recently -- and as a fellow marketer, I have to applaud this -- is their milkshake happy hour from 2-4 PM. That's a smart strategy to drive traffic during slower hours between lunch and dinner. Simple, effective, and well executed. A few practical notes: Parking can be a little tight because the lot behind the restaurant is small, but if you go during off-peak hours or order ahead for pickup, it's manageable. The Belmont neighborhood location is easy to get in and out of, and while it's not a high-traffic pedestrian area, that can actually work in your favor. Bottom line: As someone who grew up with West Coast burger culture, this is the closest I've found in Charlotte to that classic, satisfying bite -- even if it costs a bit more than In-N-Out. The quality and execution make it worth it. Get out there, eat well, be curious -- and follow me as I continue eating my way through Charlotte.

    The sauce and the meat are insanely good! I personally think it beats Five Guys to make a…read morecomparison. The fries are crispy like Rally's style almost. The onion rings are okay.
