This place needs new waiters. No matter when you're there, or how many tables are empty, you feel like your waiter has about 50 other tables. The food is greasy. The skinny french fries are yummy, but that's about it. The chili is ALL beans, the baked beans aren't that great, the apples & grapes side tastes like water, or lettuce, or something equally tasteless. As far as the burgers go, they're good, just REALLY greasy. The chicken fingers are okay, not the best, but definitely not the worst I've had. The honey mustard is good, if the right person makes it. Milkshakes are good. But, they're milkshakes. How do you mess that up? Prices are ok if you order off of the regular menu, however recently they added a smaller meal for under 4 bucks. The only difference is you get one less side. read more

Because they are taking to long,our food was cold,I ordered a milkshake and it took a hour to get the milkshake,and the claw machine took my money. read more

First off Patricia was an absolute great waitress. She was very welcoming and attentive. The food isn't all that great I saw reviews bout their steaks so I was a little afraid to even order any. I just had a taco salad with chicken (lettuce was kind of stale.) My girl had chili 3 ways (she claimed it had way too much beans then actual chili itself) & we shared a side of chili cheese fries. The "Oreo" milkshake was kind of stale. I mean you eat what you pay for. Cheap, lame food, I guess. read more

Never again! This place is absolutely horrible! I've been to numerous locations around the southeast and my experiences have always been decent. This place, however, ruins it for the chain altogether! First off, I ordered a #4 combo (comes with double patties, cheese, and bacon). I received a double cheeseburger... patties, cheese, and a bun. I asked about the side items that could be purchased in place of the fries, and the cashier was clueless. I plainly stated I don't want fries and asked for the other options. Her response? "We have fries, different flavors." Ummm... didn't I just say I don't want fries??! Then, she mentions onion rings. Okay... what other options??? She was still clueless. We get all the way back home (Phenix City), and this is when I realize the order is wrong. The side salad that I'd requested in place of the fries was completely missing, and yeah, I had a double cheeseburger. It's hot as hell, by the way! Nonetheless, my husband and I get back in the car and take the food back. They get the burger right this time, but the patties are lukewarm; so lukewarm that the cheese won't even melt, and I still don't get my side item. Just a lukewarm burger and a drink. My husband's order was fine, minus the fact that he asked for it to have everything on it. We will definitely not be coming back! I would suggest if you want a burger go to Flip Side in downtown Columbus, Red Robin, hell even McDonald's! Anywhere but this place. If you want a milkshake, go to Sonic or somewhere. Don't disappoint yourself and your wallet by coming here... read more

I just can't bring myself to eat here anymore. The food is typical drive through quality but it is certainly not worth a 25 minute wait in the drive through. The problem with this location is that it is managed and staffed by children. After waiting 25 minutes I went inside to ask for my money back and there were only young kids operating the restaurant. And the food prep area was trashed!! read more

So I had to try it anyway despite what the other review were... WELL I should have listened. We order a hot dog (it was cold) not warm it was cold, onion rings (very greasy), fries (not cold but not hot), strawberry shake (taste like it was marked with syrup), hamburger (it was good and hot) Service was great, waiters was nice... But I want eat here again... 10 people working and only one of them looked over the age of 19. I'm sorry folks but it looks more like a hang out for employees. Burger King is better! read more

The food is so tastyyy ! The buns are warm, the meat is fresh. I will definitely go back soon. I ordered the triple steak burger combo.

Why are you using yelp to look up a Steak and Shake? This is a typical S&S... you wait forever, the staff is unable to do things like math, the food rarely presents like the menu, and the idea of flavor hasn't reached the kitchen. This Steak and Shake takes this to a whole new low. I guess when you order something on the menu, that is translated to "I'll bring you whatever I want". And when it shows up incorrectly, you are the one that screwed up, not the server. In the end, you get what you pay for. This place is dirt cheap. So if you are low on money and enjoy being treated horribly, this is your jam. read more

It's not the best place for burgers, I would say Wendys is above this place. My food was good, I had a Bacon Cheesburger but for $8 something its a little overpriced. The fries are small kid sized fries and super thin. The burger patties are thin also it has some flavor but I don't know. There are better burger places like Red Robin but these are around $4 but it's ok. Not a fan of this place so we may not come back. It was a good first time visit but I don't feel like anything here is worth coming back to. Try it our for your self but don't be expecting much. My fav place is still Waffle House to eat some cheap good food. read more

The service was mediocre and the food just wasn't it. The burger was super good and tasted freshly made. The chicken fingers were fine as well. But the fires were hard and crispy and hard to eat. My friend with braces could barely even eat one. The bathrooms were nasty and looked like it haven't been clean in weeks. read more

I didn't think it was possible for steak and shake to mess up a milk shake....but they did it today. We grabbed two today while out and about, me a Reese's peanut butter cup and my other half a banana flavored. I've been out of town for a while and was craving one. I remember them being so good from my days living in Atlanta maybe I was mistaken. I'm going to try and describe mine....picture flavorless ice milk mixed with a scoop of the worst vanilla protein powder then blended up like crazy until it creates a frothy foamy slimy texture then put it in a cup with some whipped cream and cherry. Fail today steak and shake. I'll give you another chance in a few days in opelika AL. I'll update my review then. read more

Ordered 2 cheese steak burgers and fries. Yuck! The food was TERRIBLE! Hamburgers would be tasteless if it weren't for the grease. The French fries have obviously been sitting under the warmer for a while!! They could have and should have done better! No wonder they are closing up! I do not recommend! read more

First of all, they sat us at a table that was dirty and had trash . Our server kept forgetting our drink order and kept going back and forth for individual straws and drinks, it took a good 20 mins to get us situated with drink before we got to order our food, then it took another 15 to get the food to our table, but wait there's more once we got our food... they weren't right , which is really confusing since we were the only table out of the 4 seated who had yet to get their food. And I just don't understand, out of that 4 we sat here first. And then we just really wanted to eat but they just couldn't get anything right. There's 12 workers, 4 tables on a slow night. That's unacceptable on the low. read more

Is there a way to give halfs. I would say 3.5 . But my overall experience was quick and painless. I have 5 kids so you can imagine I need my food quick. Now the comparison from menu to actual food you receive is that of comparing those Burger King commercial lol. Your food never comes as it was displayed. I got the equivalent of the baconzilla. No complaints bacon was crisp and the burger was good. It satisfies my tastebuds. This is another fast food sit down food chain you shouldn't expect anything out this world. Although checkers burgers are bigger I would have spent a lot more money in checkers. Pick your poison. Overall not bad but kinda fooled me on size of what I would be served. You'll see what I mean when you order lol. read more

Ordered the food at 11.25pm at drive thru had 2 cars ahead of us it took us 20 mins to get to the window and then had to honk to notify them we were there despite the food was sitting at the window and the person cashing out didn't even what the order was..btw v spent 25 mins for grilled cheese and medium fries read more

Great customer service. We got to order something that was discontinued and they made sure to ask us several times for the correct ingredients. This place is super friendly, and the food is cheap as heck! The thinly sliced fries were a treat! Best of all, they have coupons for their already low prices. A family of 3 can eat for about $15. Who can do that anymore? My first time and very pleased! read more

Me and my husband decided to eat their for lunch one afternoon being he had never eaten there before, And our experience their was awful, Our shakes were unappealing and our burgers were not tasty, Our waiter was nice at least that's what we thought, When we went to go pay our bill we were scammed out of 4 bucks for a tip by our waiter and another waiter who checked us out, I guess our tip wasn't big enough that they figured they would get more on their own, Luckily I check my debit card each day or we would have never known, So BEWARE!!! when your using your credit or debit cards at that place. read more

This place is great. Their staff is friendly, the food is tasty, and the signature menu is worthwhile. Just remember it's Steak & Shake, not Morton's. You get what you pay for. If you expect anything more, you're in the wrong place. Welcome to the South. read more

A cumulative two star review? These people are nuts in Atlanta steak and shake will keep you waiting 45 minutes before someone will even acknowledge your existence! This was the fastest food has ever come out at a steak and shake. The server Jeni was friendly despite having been here since 12 (we arrived at 8:45). She even brought us extra cheese for the fries without even asking. Keep it up Jeni! read more

I have ordered food from here twice, the first time my order was wrong, they forgot an entire meal and the second time I only ordered 4 shakes and it took over an hour and a half read more

Food was great & service was excellent. The employees seemed like the genuinely like their jobs.

Never had a bad experience here. Good burgers and shakes and you can't best the price for the quality you get

This place has the worst service ever. Good burgers but the service stinks. The floor is greasy and slippery and very hard to walk on. The wait staff are rude and look at you like you are stupid when you tell them something. Our food got up there and it took them way to long for it to be brought to the table. Like I said burgers are good and its cheap but you get what you pay for! read more

Went there yesterday, they forgot our drinks. Went there today and ordered two grilled cheese steakburger melts. Received two plain grilled cheese sandwiches, after paying full price for the melts. Didn't notice until we got home and we just ate them because we were starving. This location has been open since I was in high school in the early '00s and it's always been this way. I'll go years without going because they ALWAYS give you the wrong thing, then give them another chance and they do it again. This is literally the first time I've bothered posting on yelp or leaving a negative review of anything in my life, because being this utterly incompetent is honestly hilarious. Just how. read more

went at 1030 Tuesday with my Son, ordered the royal burger, onion rings, Oreo Shake, fries and a strawberry shake. it was awesome! burger was perfect, the shake was amazing, staff was very nice! But, lol, my onion rings were a little overcooked and we had very small..... (update) been there 3 times now- fast, friendly, my son loves it! good place, good food for a reasonable price! read more

We have come to this restaurant multiple times and the minute they get a group they fall apart. We come here after an event and every year we call ahead and they never prepare and act as if they didn't know. Not only do they forget about people but they get the orders wrong and become extremely rude to us just because we are high schoolers. read more

I actually can not believe folks are giving this joint ( I use that loosely) even two stars. The service stinks, the food is horrible, the management thinks you are an idiot. As Gordon Ramsey would say SHUT IT DOWN! read more

Hello, I went to stake and shake last night 5/31/2014 and I was beyond disappointed. I would like to say first my coworkers and I visit stake and shake on a regular bases and after I tell them what I seen I doubt they will ever go there again. I work at sprint on Bradley park so it is very convent for us to travel there during our lunch break. First off I order my food and was just waiting at the window for it to be made. I have worked in the kitchen before and know how sanitation should be handled. So decided too look in the window to see how they worked. First I saw an employee grab a trash can with his gloves on to empty out the old fries. No problem there I thought he would take off the old gloves and wash his hands before switching to making the food. NO he not only grabbed the fry scoop with dirty glove hands he then scooped them up to fill the orders. He over filled the fry cup and fries spilled everywhere he took the spilled fries and put them back in the fry bucket. I am not one to write bad reviews and complain but I just had to this time. I couldn't believe what I seen. It only makes me wonder what else these employees do. Stake and shake has lost my businesses along with my coworkers and anyone else I can tell to not go there. read more

My milkshake took too long. I got grumpy. My girlfriend didn't like me being grumpy and dumped me, overall negative experience. Thanks Steak and Shake you rule read more

The waitress made it sound like the pancakes came with the breakfast but we ended up paying2. 79for them and the service sucked

I have eaten at other Steak N' Shakes before and they were okay, but this was by far the worst! My mother and I picked up drive-thru and while we received our food quickly, the order was wrong. The fries were horrible! They were cold and had absolutely no flavor (i.e. salt)! Granted, I don't like a lot of condiments on my burgers, I do like some and so, I ended up having to add my own. Very disappointing and I will not be returning to this location! read more

I hate the service! The milkshakes are just that, shaken milk. There's no thickness to them at all. The waiters are terrible. But the burgers... Amazing! Prices are great. They have $4 meals which are great. The food almost makes up for the awful service. read more

Most days my daughter anticipates getting shakes when I pick her up from day care. Today i sat at the kiosk to order for 4 min until i heard someone but there head set was just turned on when they didnt know and then someone else was trying to take my order but couldnt hear because someone elses head set was on. I just drove to the window to order, no big deal. I payed then three teenage looking girls sat at the window giggling and peeking at me while doing it, so I knew they were talking about me. one finally asked me to pull forward and they would bring them out. After 5 min. I grabbed my daughter and went in requesting a refund and noticed those girls and a couple others at the shake station just BSing until they seen me, then they wanted to bring my shakes. I told them I wouldnt take them, i just wanted my money so i can go somewhere else. The manager gave me the money back, and seemed concerned but I know they never do anything to the employees since its hard to get people to work, thats why they get by with it now. But im pretty sure I will not return until they get employees that knows the difference between a consumer and a merchant. I will not play these childish games with employees, because that is all they were doing, they thought it was funny. read more

Not a fan of this chain. The burgers were paper thin and so were the fries. I guess that's why it's cheap. Even the shakes aren't that good. I like a real burger not something that looks like they picked it up off the side of the road. read more

Frisco burger is great, and I like their chili, but service is usually not great. The milkshake are also good.

Service was poor, time that we had to wait to even get our beverages was awful. My foot long chili dog was not even warm nor the chili on the top of it. Music was not good either it was almost like hard acid rock, very unappealing. I sent i miss you hot dog back and it didn't even melt the cheese the 2nd fo around. The fries were cold also! They sat a group beside us as we were leaving and they said they had to brew sweet tea. read more

Tried this place for the first time today (the drive thru) it took about 15 mins to get in & out of there with 1 person ahead of me, I got a combo & shake, both we're DELICIOUS! The cashier was pretty friendly and chipper, definitely coming back sometime soon. read more
