We went into this location around 11:30am with a ton of kids. The staff was so kind, helpful, and quick to whip out our order - and it was all correct and fresh! The store was also clean, which was unique for the locations i've been to in the past haha! A young man also came out after our group's meal and offered free hats to all the kids. Thank you, staff at this SNS! You made our lunch experience excellent! read more

The service was unmatched! We brought in a bunch of kids after a field trip and this store handled everyone and their orders without a single hiccup! Not only was the service top-notch, but the entire staff was friendly and had smiles! It was a great experience! read more

Seriously, the best service!!! We took a group of about 7+ families into this location for lunch. The staff was not only friendly and fun, they got our orders out so fast and without mistake. Go see them, you won't be disappointed. read more

I'm a lifelong fan of Steak 'n Shake, but with none in Tucson, Arizona, I rarely get to go. I was thrilled that my hotel in Indianapolis was a 10-minute walk away and made it a point to venture out for dinner on my first night in town. The digital kiosks made for an easy ordering experience, giving me plenty of time to look over a menu I haven't seen in years without holding up the line. My food came up fast and prepared as ordered. Everything was delicious, and I was happy to be able to pick up a a can chili and bottle of fry seasoning to take home. It's nice to know that in these times of constant change, some good (delicious) things remain the same. read more

While staying the area for business a few of us came here one evening for burgers.... Service was nice, the place was clean. Food was made fresh and hot pretty quickly and the burger tasted great. The fries were really good and so were the onion rings. Definitely worth stopping in for a burger and fries! read more

Steak ’n Shake - Cheeseburger - Fast Food Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Wow how the model of Steak n Shake has changed. They've scrapped the servers, scrapped the cashier. You now order on a kiosk. They call your name and order number over loud speaker to pick up at counter. We ordered a 5 way chili and frisco melt. They forgot to add the burger in the bag. Had to wave someone in the kitchen down to correct our order and low and behold, they never even made the burger. Had to wait for them to make, in a restaurant full of guests. The frisco melt was just okay. My brother-in-law loves their chili, so that was the only reason we went here. He loved it this time too. It was not a relaxing dinner eating in the dining room with the loud speaker going off every minute, loudly. read more

Stopped in tonight before the pacers game to eat. You order on a kiosk and there were plenty to go around. Prices are a bit high at this location due to being downtown. Once we ordered we had no issues finding a clean table. Food was being made fresh and took a minute to come. Everything was hot, well assembled and tasted like the Steak 'n Shake we remembered. The staff came around to check on us and were super friendly! No complaints here. read more

Ordered two shakes and the cost was $12-13. On the high side. But they were also fairly large more than I needed The grill master was busting his hump and working hard Place seemed to be fairly staffed and it did not seem that busy for its size yet we waited 10 minutes which is too long for two shakes. I am not impressed with their bandwidth for preparing shakes considering shake is in their name. All the patrons seemed content with the experience One thing that was particularly nice was kiosk stations. I think there were 3-5 , plenty. And the kiosks were easy to use read more

Danean had the BEST customer service. Will absolutely be back The customer service was amazing.

This place is the best! The manager Dorthy is very good at her job and takes it seriously my order had a mistake last time I came in and she made everything right and then some best Steak 'n Shake around! read more

I either get a cheeseburger or chicken strips with their string fries. An oreo or cookies n creme milkshake. Very delicious. Hits the spot. Food service can always be better in the sheer fact of wearing gloves whenever behind the counter including cash register operators. Definitely has your dinner setting feel to it. Always a nice choice and selection for lunch or dinner! :) read more

I'm honestly surprised by the reviews of this location cause when I went I had a very pleasant experience. All of the workers were incredibly kind, welcoming me and asking how I am; no idea what these other people experienced but I can 100% say the workers are NOT rude. I ordered a single patty burger, fries and a Reese's chocolate shake. The burger was just ok for me but definitely not terrible. I think I just didn't like the pepper taste it had. Fries were delicious. That shake tho!!!!!!! OMFG YES!!!!!! If I could marry that shake, I would. It was thick and creamy and tasted like heaven. Lots of love went into making it. I sadly don't have a Steak 'n Shake where I live and I wanna cry. Will 100% go back to this location if I'm ever in the area again. read more

Steak ’n Shake - Single Steakburger with Cheese Combo with a Reese's chocolate peanut butter shake - Fast Food Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Horrible! There was a guy inside with his hands inside his pants. Went in for a milk shake which was great though!

I was gonna give this place a bad review, but because the manager on duty was so wonderful and the one employee was so great. I'm gonna give them more stars. My order never came back to the kitchen so we had to wait a while and then when we asked the nice gentleman where was our food was he looked into it and then told his manager that our order never came out. They had a computer problem. So He hurried and made our order and the wonderful manager refunded us our money back and gave us the food. Because how wonderful those two were we will come back. I do have to admit it was very clean inside there. I was very impressed with that. read more

Update: day two I went again and ordered the same thing via the phone app. Was in the restaurant right after I submitted the order and I watched the online order desk and no one ever called my name. I got no alerts on my phone to let me know the order is ready. I walked up to the counter and the guy, but gradually went and checked and grabbed it from the back area . I don't know if it had been sitting there for five minutes or one minute. But I was not notified when it was ready ..This was my first time here and although I had to wait for a kiosk, it was not too long of a wait. I got a Frisco and a Reese's peanut butter shake with chocolate and they were both amazing. The guy that gave me my shake, was really friendly and seemed to have a sense of humor so I can't complain about the service either. Planning on going there a few more times this week. read more

Steak ’n Shake - Frisco Melt. Reeses shake - Fast Food Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Came here on a weekday during a convention week in downtown Indy. Placed my order online. It took around 5-10 minutes longer than the stated time when I arrived. The store was packed and gives off diner vibes. Reminds me a bit of In N Out. I got an original steakburger, vanilla milkshake, and a chili 5 way. The steakburger was solid. I noticed the beef had a strong black pepper flavor. I'm a fan of black pepper, but that was the first time I noticed a black pepper flavor in a burger at a fast food chain. The shake was thick and indulgent. The sweetness paired well with my greasy burger. It felt like a drinkable ice cream. I've never had chili 5 way before, so I was intrigued when I saw it in the menu. The chili was a bit watery, so I was not the biggest fan of this dish. It could barely hold onto the noodles. However, I liked the fresh onions on it. I wouldn't get it again though. Steak 'n Shake isn't something we have back home in the Bay Area, so I was happy to try it. Even though the pickup was a bit chaotic, I think it is adequate for anyone craving burgers or other American food. read more

I don't know why this place has such a low score here. All our food came out perfect, ordering was easy, and the restaurant was clean.

To begin with can't say the service was great because it was with a kiosks. Place was a little messy which is a big no for me. But my friends insisted in staying. Moreover I give this Steak 'n Shake 1 one star because I didn't get my order right. I had said no onions and ketchup on my burger and that's the first thing I see once I get it. Also I waited 40 minutes for my order which was ridiculous. Oh and I'm not done my burger was cold and fries as well. And I didn't say anything because I didn't want to wait another 40 minutes for a cold combo. So just stay away from this Steak N Shake. read more

The best burger I have ever had in my life. Immaculate quality and service! Will be back.

2.6.2024 Don't waste your time or your money! Order was wrong, no bacon on a TRIPLE bacon sandwich that my partner was looking forward to enjoying a decent burger. Employees watch you eat, then when you get up and look their way, they retreat to the back and do not come back to help. Bathroom smell is rancid, musty, and sour! At this point it needs a new remodel to get rid of that stench! Only entered the bathroom to wash my hands, 10/10 would NOT recommend! read more

After being pleasantly surprised at the quality I've had at the SnS closest to my home, I've been open to trying other SNS locations. This is a downtown location at a notable intersection right across the street from the mall, near St Elmo's and the convention center. So there's a lot of tourists, business people, and others just looking for a relatively affordable lunch. I will say this SNS is different than others in that the menu seems a bit more limited. For example, I couldn't find an option on the kiosk for a single steakburger. The prices are also higher. Its still a good deal for downtown Indianapolis, but if you're used to the $4 meals, you won't find them here. Despite being really busy, this location is relatively clean and decently staffed. But I can't say this is the best SNS experience I've had. At the location closest to my home, I can see the steam coming off of my burger and the bun is warm and toasty. Here, it was still warm but not hot. And the bun didn't seem toasted at all. Still good for a meal and there's not many options downtown for less than $6. But not worth going out of the way for. read more

When you walk in you order your food on a kiosk. It was easy to use and offered many options. The staff was friendly and helpful. As you enjoy your steak burger and shake enjoy the old diner decor. read more

Not good! Order a basic combo...the burger was pink, the fries didn't make it to the bag. This wasn't a good experience. The location is in a good spot but the service and food is not so good. read more

The place is kinda In and Out plus sugary shakes. The Banana Shake was good and very sweet. I was kinda disappointed with my burger. It took forever to get my burger. read more

I went to steak 'n Shake last night at like 11pm and surprisingly they were still open, which is crazy to me I ordered two burgers food was good. The Coke was good as well. They forgot my fries but it's OK. The quality of the food was still good for it being 11 PM at night! read more

We visited this restaurant during a recent trip to Indy for a dance convention. Our girls had the best time interacting with staff who were friendly and entertaining. The shakes were delicious, too! read more

This joint is great for a late-night snack after going out, or random cravings. However, don't go there expecting a perfect & dreamy 90's diner with plump burgers, because it's just not. Very busy at 3 am, with the bar-goes coming in, and filled with drunk people (ages 20-60) from the area. Our waitress was a charm, always so sweet to us but talking business to the people who got in the way of her serving - gave her a hefty tip for that. Service was slow due to the amount of people, but I feel like our food still shouldn't have taken that long. The fries were super thin, with unevenly distributed toppings (I got the Parmesan Cheese Fries). Burgers were good, but not great. Definitely recommend this place for people watching, and hanging out for a cheap meal, since the prices are very low! read more

Quite possibly the worst Steak 'n Shake ever. Ordered my burger and fries at 6:20pm, served a cold burger at 6:43pm. Hardly anyone in the restaurant at the time (maybe 4 customers) of which kept returning to the counter due to messed up orders. Not sure if it's a covid thing, but the restaurant was bare of any condiments, salt and pepper on the tables. read more

I came here for some late night eats, I probably should have had food delivered to my hotel. The burgers are ok for a one o'clock feeding. I forgot the name of the burger that I ordered but the waitress put in the wrong order. However, she was very apologetic about it. The restaurant was very understaffed, she was very overwhelmed. Now, here comes the struggle. I asked for the check and the waitress told me she couldn't take cards, only cash. I tell you, it took close to 30 minutes to pay. It took three times as long for me to pay than it took from eating. The cashier area was a complete clusterf*ck between folks dining in, taking out, and waiting for Uber Eats. I don't understand why they couldn't make separate lines. Tip: If you are going to eat here very late, bring cash to avoid a long wait. read more

I never give bad reviews. You employee was courteous and held the door for our quite large family. A gentleman. However the Steak and Shake restaurants are a nightmare for families. No mother, especially a mother of children with disabilities wants to inconvenience herself in this way. You do not seem to understand that dinner out is usually to give Mom a break not a breakdown. You have ruined your restaurant in recent years. No more. If I were to give you a star, It would be to your employee. But instead he got a good tip for holding the door for our family. You won't post with out a star I see. So you get one even if you didn't earn it. read more

just ordered my combo from steak 'n Shake. There was a piece of hair with a little white peas. What looked to be a lice bug on my bag, stuck to the receipt on the bag. I told the guy about the hair on the bag he took the bag back there and ripped the hair and the sticker off and brought it back I said, did you just take that off of there? He said no I didn't. I said you did. They could have head lice I had to check my food right in front of them. They did not offer to change it and give me a new food. They refuse to give me fresh food. I would recommend no one to go to this steak 'n Shake. read more

Steak ’n Shake - Regular size Chocolate Milkshake and Medium Fries - Fast Food Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Holy cow this place was phenominal. I've been here before last time I was in town. Its just what I'd imagine an American burger place to be. I got the frisco grilled cheese thingy. The burger was hot and they used so much butter on the bread to make it crispy, it was heaven! That frisco sauce is kinda like Big Mac sauce but mixed with ketchup probably. Whatever it is made it SO bloody good. I'm going there every day while I'm in town. The workers were super nice and it has a 1950 theme to it. Great American experience and it's open super late. Perfect for a midnight snack. The price was about $7 I think read more

If you go to the West coast, you will want to try In-n-Out burger. If you go to the South, you will want to try What-A-Burger. However, if you come to the Midwest, you won't care whether you have Stake 'n Shake or not. And that is because their burgers are nothing special. In my opinion, for the price that you pay, the burger is pretty good. However, since Stake 'n Shake is a big chain, I would expect better quality. I will recommend you to go to Stake 'n Shake if you are looking for a very cheap meal. Or if you are trying to eat something after a long night at the bars! However, I would not recommend going there just because you are craving some burgers. If that is the case, you have a lot of better options to choose from in Indy. read more

Steak ’n Shake - Fast Food Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Really enjoyed the atmosphere, the food, and the people! Visiting from CA and wish I could take this place with me!

Steak 'n Shake is Steak 'n Shake. You usually know what you're going to get, and the food is usually pretty decent. This location seems to always have a long wait and slow service (or maybe it's me only stopping in when a huge event is happening in town). Regardless, it's still solid for a burger and fries, but you're going to have to wait. read more

I had never seen a White Castle in my life prior to coming to Indy. Thought to myself I gotta try that place for sure just to say I did. We stopped by that area late at night on a either Sunday or Saturday night while in Indy over the weekend to watch the Niner game. When I got to the window they had a sign there that said they were temporarily closed. I was disappointed. I then headed back to the Hyatt where we stayed, on the way I saw Steak n Shake was still open, I had walked by it a bunch of different times during the weekend. So I decided to stop in and take a look. They had a small line, then I got to order. I was shocked at how cheap all the menu was, it was like a little diner, with fast food prices. I decided to get the patty melt, and fries with cajun spice, both hit the spot and were very tasty. I wished they had these places in Cali. They'd never run out of customers lol. read more
