    Nutella shake with turd on top instead of Nutella drizzle.
    Ellie W.

    Stopped here with a friend in the afternoon for two shakes. There were about two other small parties inside, otherwise the place was dead. No one greeted us when we walked in. We used the kiosk to order, then waited over ten minutes for two shakes. As we waited, I noticed how dirty and unkempt the place was. The floors were filthy and stained. There were stains on the ceiling that trailed across the restaurant. Air conditioning vents were covered in dust and mold. Fingerprints and handprints covered the pickup area. Overall the atmosphere was not pleasant in the slightest. I ordered a Nutella shake and my friend ordered the Oreo shake. When we got them, my shake looked pretty sad. The pictures of the Nutella shake advertised Nutella drizzle on top. I attached a picture of what I got instead. Just a small drop. Absolutely pathetic. The shake itself tasted alright. My friend said her Oreo shake was pretty flavorless. I won't be returning to Steak 'n Shake.

    Fly in my shake. I ate it even though there was a fly in it. It had bad tasting cream.

    IMMEDIATE Corporate oversight needed. I Love Steak n' Shake but this place sucks. There's a long time regular waitress who's just plain awful. The teen waitstaff are worse - expect all manner of mistakes. They're chronically out of to go large tea cups. While pulling up to the drive thru window yesterday, an off duty employee wedged himself between my car and the window to give the window clerk a few cigarettes for a couple of bucks. At first, I was sort of alarmed someone would walk up between my car and the drive through window. The window clerk apologized and I told him he could make up for it by discounting my shake. He did after yelling to his friend who was now across the parking lot that he had to pay for my shake. Unsafe and potentially litigious. Made me uncomfortable. And Very unprofessional. .

    Waited 25 minutes for a waiter to take our order. People that came in after us were not only waited on before us but had finished their food and gone before ours reached our table. Fifty minutes from the time we were seated until Our food came. The photo below is what they served out as their $8.49 white Truffle burger (see the pic beside the burger). Fries were cold! Horribly disappointed in this experience

    My wife and I were at the deserted Sanford Mall yesterday (May 5) and saw the Steak and Shake which at the time around 3pm was empty with the exception of a pickup in the drive thru.

    Lovely Easter Brunch on the Patio…read more We came here for Easter brunch and had a really nice experience. I called about 45 minutes before arriving just to see if there was any chance we could get a table. They mentioned they were only taking reservations that day but were kind enough to squeeze us in for 1:30, which worked out perfectly. Raven was our waitress and she was wonderful. Super welcoming, friendly, and attentive the whole time without ever feeling overbearing. My husband and I shared a Caesar salad and the steak and eggs, and of course we had to order mimosas (two each... because brunch ). Everything came out fresh and tasty. One small personal preference, and this might just be me, but I would have liked the Caesar salad lettuce to be chopped a bit smaller instead of the larger pieces. Not a deal breaker at all, just something I noticed. The steak was cooked well. I wouldn't say it was the best steak I've ever had, but it was definitely good. What really stole the show for me was the chimichurri sauce. I could honestly eat that by itself with the potatoes, it was that good. We sat on the patio and were a little worried it might be too hot, but it was nicely shaded and they have fans going, so it was actually very comfortable. The only time we got a little warm was after our second mimosa... but that might be on us Overall, it was a great experience and we'll definitely be back.

In town on a work trip, my husband, and I decided to try this place out! What a wonderful surprise! From the moment you walked in the eclectic, industrial, modernized, warm, cozy feel welcomes you in. Our server was friendly and attentive, and we knew right away that this place was a find! A wonderful happy hour menu, led us to a full menu of what felt like a farm to table experience. I sadly didn't get to snap a photo of the excellent appetizer buratta, but it was a perfect blend of balsamic tomato and creamy cheese! I am a true foodie, and this was hands-down the best burger I've ever eaten. My husband absolutely loved his shrimp and grits, perfectly cooked and well balanced flavor. Well, I know everyone recommends the chocolate cake, I can't rave enough about the crème brûlée. Do yourself a favor and go out of your way to enjoy a " private chef experience" meal! You will be glad you did!

The Cornbread? AMAZING. The chimichurri sauce? Amazing! So so good. Very good dinner.

Good amount of outdoor seating as well. The decor is funky. It feels a bit 50s, a bit dinerish, somewhat gone fishin', and I don't know what else. No, it's not perfect.

Based on our lousy service and our terrible meal, it hasn't been nearly long enough. The food was miserable. How hard can it be to make crisp french fries?

Tasteless food of questionable quality served incompetently earns the Triple Crown of a just flat-out bad dinner. To be polite, the bartender was a simpleton. He ignored not just us, but also the folks next to us - all of us who were sitting directly in front of him for 20 minutes without acknowledgement nor any eye contact in a mostly empty bar. No wonder there were no customers - combining his complete dearth of service and the trash food being served, it isn't a surprise why this place was empty on a Friday night. We miss Buster. Please take his name off the building. He would never serve the crap that was put in front of us. And Percy woulda run that loser masquerading as a bartender off faster than the diarrhea that hit us when we got home.
