Ordered a 5 way for my wife and a burger for me. Her 5 way arrived at the pickup shelf 10 minutes before my burger and the warming light was not turned on. My burger was placed on the shelf for 5 more minutes with the waitress ogling over a baby and our food losing temperature. Once delivered to our table my wife started to partake but it was room temperature. She complained to our waitress and the waitress made a face and told the kitchen " she thinks it's cold" in a sarcastic voice. My wife said take it off our bill and we left. read more

We have eaten here many times before but in the last year, always did drive thru because if Covid. Today we decided to have breakfast and we're surprised to find out that breakfast had been discontinued last year. We were greeted by an incredibly strong and rank smell. It smelled like someone had mopped the floors with a sour, nasty mop. We decided to stay and thankfully our burgers and onion rings were tasty and our server Miss Doris was friendly and efficient. There was NO music and it was like eating in a morgue, a sad quiet morgue in a restaurant. The pretty colorful menu has been replaced by a one page, black and white xeroxed menu We will go back to using drive thru, it's wasn't a pleasant experience to eat inside. Btw, there was NO shredded cheese for the chili, the mgr had to run and pick some up. Fail, F-. read more

Food was cold and soggy. Restaurant was dirty. The service was mediocre. The kids liked it.

Solid burger, fresh fries, and friendly service. Total bill for three people, including a milkshake, was $13.00. I don't know how that can be beat. The only observation I made is that the restaurant was a bit dirty - looks like the booths and floor needed to be cleaned. Other than that, this was a great experience. read more

Steak ’n Shake - Burgers Near Me - Osage Beach, Missouri

Amazing food! Our double cheeseburgers were cooked perfectly, they were hot, and were partially wrapped in envelope style tissue paper which kept the burger and the toppings together as we ate it. Way less sloppy! We have never seen that at a Steak 'n Shake before. It was really great! Then the burger was placed in a cardboard burger box. Again, we've never seen this before at a Steak 'n Shake. That was particularly nice. The burgers were not greasy at all. The fries were hot. The chili was amazing. This particular Steak 'n Shake is a stand out and seems to be doing things a little differently than the other Steak 'n Shakes we've been to. Even the hamburger buns seemed a little different. Bottom line..great all around. Service was perfect. We went through the drive-thru. read more

Ordered 15 minutes early, came in and mentioned my name with order. I saw my order sitting over 5 minutes on the counter. I had to approach them a 2nd time to receive prepaid order. I am upset!!! read more

Tried this place 4 times over the last week. 3 out of the 4 times they did not understand simple requests such as 'no onions.' It made it onto the receipts, but somehow didn't translate to the kitchen staff. That was just an example of one mistake. Each time our order was messed up. The one time we thought maybe it was all good there was a small surprise pile of onions and there were no utensils- so the person that got chili Mac was SOL. They said it doesn't taste as good reheated later. Check your order before pulling off. read more

Steak ’n Shake - a receipt from a restaurant - Burgers Near Me - Osage Beach, Missouri

I've gone back and forth on this place. I mean, it's fast food so expectations shouldn't be too high. Occasionally you'll come here even when it's dead and service is terribly slow, drinks don't get refilled, etc. other times, the service is great. The reason for the four stars is that for fast food, this is great. I love steak and shake. I have since I was a kid and have never stopped. If the Osage beach steak and shake was more consistent with their service, they would get five stars from me. read more

Steak ’n Shake - Coke Zero - Burgers Near Me - Osage Beach, Missouri

When we arrived we waited about 5 minutes to be seated. Gave us enough time to read other reviews and we became rather worried about the service after reading a few. We were pleasantly surprised when we were greeted by a rather friendly waitress! Our Waitress was prompt and efficient (didn't smell of smoke or look like she awoke from a meth coma as other reviewers experienced)! I had the garlic burger, which was perfect amount of meat, garlic and cheese. Hubby had the bacon steak burger. Menu indicated it would be served with 2 pieces of bacon but he received 4 (bonus). We gave a 4 star as the building required some work (ceiling, torn chair, etc) read more

One of my favorite places ever have eaten here enough times probably double digit amount of times loves this place.

The staff was great. Had good service with good food. Note to self. Not a fan of ordering online with points but can't eat inside. Order there and can't get points for meals bought??? read more

You usually can't go wrong with a Steak 'n Shake, but this one needs help. Super slow, very dirty and the waitress had no idea what a chocolate coke was! Really? I get them all the time here and have never been questioned on it. Didn't get an offer of to-go cups and this is seriously the only location I have ever been to that doesn't have the toy vending machines in the front!!! read more

Avoid at all costs. I don't expect much from any Steak n Shake, but even that was too much of an expectation for this location. Service was horrible and extremely slow. We were given no silverware, were brought drinks with no straws, and after asking for both we waited and waited and then finally got up to get them ourselves. When the food finally arrived, (family of 3) not a single order was correct. By the time everything was corrected the original food was cold. I would urge everyone to find another place to eat, if I could give less than 1 star I would. read more

Sure could use some cleaning. Looks like the roof leaks, a few tiles stained. Floors in bathroom sticky. Booth seat torn. Service ok, rather slow. Greeter did not say anything to us just grabbed menu and expected us to follow her. At least the cook knows what he's doing. That is a plus. Slow WiFi . Took several times before review would post read more

was glad the dine in was open, the service was very nice and friendly and price is good. but today the food was only fair- bun seemed old and smelled not fresh- meat tasted old- not ruined but like It had been in the freezer to long. ff smelled and taste old oil used. it was just ok, kinda disappointed since it is just now inside opening. hope it gets better.

Went through the drive through today. We ordered "a cheeseburger, with fries and a chocolate shake" then we added to the order another cheeseburger with fries and a chocolate shake. We only got one shake at the window and when we asked for the second, the employee said "we can't add on to your order at the window." We weren't adding on to the order, we just wanted to receive what we ordered. We tried to explain this and the employee just said again "we can't add on to your order." Very disappointed with the service we received. read more

Horrible service, rude to the customers, and try to serve food that is burnt and fried under cooked where they're soggy read more

Steak ’n Shake - Burgers Near Me - Osage Beach, Missouri

When you walk in the door, even on the slowest days, it take at least 10 mins for someone to even acknowledge you, let alone seat you. Most of the time, waitresses and staff will walk right by you and act like you are invisible. The waitresses are mostly friendly, but are always new and dont know the menu. There have also been a few times where our waitress reeked of cigarette smoke and looked like she just crawled out of a meth coma. The food always come out fast, but is almost always wrong in some way. When I ask for the incorrect order to be fixed, I'm met with disdain and eye rolls. I won't order the shakes anymore, they are just bland and not worth it at all. Normally, I wouldn't return to a place like this, but for some reason, my kids love it. On the special occasion that we eat fast food, they always ask for this place, but I would never come here on my own. read more

We came into the Osage Beach. Steak and Shake this afternoon with a large group (15 people). It took 45 minutes to get seated, after the waitress told us it would be impossible to seat us all together. This is where the problems began. Our part of the group (4 people) ordered 4 shakes a large order of onion rings and a large order of cheese fries. It took about 30 minutes to get any drinks brought to the table, half of the drinks were incorrect. After we received our drinks it took at least another 30 minutes to get our food. When we received our food, it was stone cold. On top of the food issues, our server was completely unapologetic about said issues. We will not be returning nor will we recommend. This location. To anyone. read more

The food was great, but our service was beyond slow and or waitress (Doris) left much to be desired. She was beyond annoyed that we had children with us. She made a comment that one dropped a crayon, and we had to basically beg her for a water for each kid. She said since we had ordered two sprites we only needed 2 waters when I had asked for four waters so each child would have one. read more

Service was SHITTTTTE! They forgot the bacon on my bacon cheeseburger and added banana flavor to a chocolate shake

Good food at really affordable prices. The shakes are tasty too. Worth coming in for a quick meal. I think its better quality than the other fast food places. read more

Steak ’n Shake - Not like the picture, but still pretty tasty. - Burgers Near Me - Osage Beach, Missouri

Can't beat the shakes! The best ever. The burgers and fries are great! I've never been to a Steak & Shake that had good service though...seriously, whether on vacay or home. Maybe it's a Steak & Shake thing. Ha! Can't beat the price either..burger meals or hot dogs for $4!! read more

I've never dined inside the restaurant, but have been through the drive-thru multiple times and have never had an issue. When reading the reviews from this place it is kind of unsettling because compared to the service we use to get at the Columbia (MO) Steak and Shakes this place should be 5 stars. I say keep up the good work guys. I'd recommend to a friend. read more

Food was good and the waitress was good, I had to wait a lot longer then I should to pay for our meal. It seems like the staff was overwhelmed and I feel the manager should have noticed someone waiting to long. read more

Honestly, leaving a review for a fast food restaurant usually seems silly to me because the food is usually the same as everywhere else, and this is true with this Steak 'n Shake. It's good, don't have a problem with the food. The service is HORRIBLE. The past three times I've been, it's been just bad. This time made me write the review. My boyfriend and I met a couple of other friends there. My friends had already eaten, but were still sitting at the table. When we walked in, we waited a little bit for someone to greet us to say hi, but no one did so we just sat at the table figuring the waitress would see us. At this point, there were five other tables (none of them large) in the restaurant. Behind the counter, there were at least five people who worked there (not sure if they were all servers). Our waitress never came. We sat there for 10 minutes and no one said hi or asked us if we needed a menu. Here's a tip: when you are a waitress, and you see someone new join one of your tables, at the very least, GREET THEM. If it's not your table, you should tell that server or greet them yourself. It is so unprofessional to have five workers standing around and new customers walking in without a word of "hello." By the way, we left after 15 minutes of sitting there being ignored. Please have a talk with all the wait staff that worked Jan. 4 around 4:45 PM. It can and should be better than this. I am a waitress myself, so I am easy on restaurants usually. This place needs an all-employee training session, at least for those who are hostesses and servers. read more

I give the steaknshake 1 star, because I drove way out of my way only to get to the door for it to be locked. It wasn't because the store was closed but only because they didn't feel like letting me in, therefore the workers felt no need to work. Because I pulled up at 12:53 a.m. and the store did not close until 2 a.m. that means that they do not lock the doors until exactly 2 a.m. As far as I know that's the law. As I was walking to the door I made eye contact with one of the waitresses and I know she acknowledged me. Instead of doing the right thing and coming to let me in she just turned her head and ignored me and acted as if she never seen me. I would not go there if I were you cuz they obviously don't appreciate all the money that you worked hard to earn to be spent there. read more

This is probably the best Steak and Shake that I've been to. We were in and out in less than half hour.

Don't get me wrong the food is great but the service is terrible. It doesn't matter what time of day or how busy it is they are always slow. Ive waited for over an hour for food before. One time we needed something and no one knew where our waitress went. She went out to smoke and didn't tell anyone. read more

Good dinner style food. Friendly (professional) waitress. Good place to stop if vacationing at the Ozarks.

Generally and I say that loosely we aren't unsatisfied with this fast food joint. The service is normally standard for these types of restaurants; not overly superior but not overly crappy either. The food is typical of any fast food restaurant. It's "generally" pretty good. Loosely. I have been craving a good shake for a couple of weeks now but between work, kids, animals, home and extended family chaos we haven't had time to do anything for ourselves... So finally today we caught a break and ended up hunting down the best shake at the lake which consequently is NOT at Steak N SHAKE ... Well now that's ironic. I was excited. The pictures looked amazing! The "pictures" looked amazing... The PICTURES *looked* amazing :( ... Here it comes... Here it comes... My amazing double chocolate fudge shake annnnnnd the pictures LOOKED amazing. I fully anticipated a mountainess topping of whipped cream...annnnnnd my mount everest was deflated. I whatever that away... Whatever. I move on to flavor. A double chocolate fudge shake! I ordered water because certainly this was going to be too rich to indulge in without water. It's a double chocolate fudge shake for Pete's sake. I don't even know Pete but I insisted on the water. I take my first spoonful of my no whipped cream having sketchy shake. I instinctively think..."are my taste buds off?" So I take another spoonful. Now I think something is wrong. I mean something must be medically wrong with me or why would my shake taste nothing like chocolate... Let alone a double chocolate fudge shake.. and with every spoonful I'm beginning to think I've been duped in the "ice cream" department too. My husband mentioned that it tasted like frozen milk and he was RIGHT!! Idk folks. I passed on Andy's, Randy's, Cold Stone and Sonic thinking anything with "shake" in the title was money in the bank... You win some. You lose some. ***Side Bar*** Three star review because the minimal amount of fudge on top tasted like fudge should taste... Like fudge. read more

HORRIBLE! I'm only giving two stars because the food was decent. It smelled like rotten milk, they were out of silverware and gave us wet halfway washed forks and knives, and it took 15-20 mins at the door just to be seated. read more

I enjoy Steak n Shake's food. We have them in St. Louis, and most are okay. This one however had terrible service. All the servers were eating behind the partition, and our server was chewing as she brought our plates out. When we paid at the counter, I actually saw the cook lick his fingers. I won't return to this particular SS. read more
