Get unbiased advice before you buy. Decent to good food. Shake has several locations within 10 miles of where I live, so I manage to get to one of them every couple of weeks or so.
Shake offers seating at both a counter and tables, but at either location, service is often slow.
This can be especially irritating when you are at the counter, and most of the servers are right there looking at you, but don't seem to be doing anything, until they find some reason to leave and go to the back of the kitchen. Even so, then I'll often have to ask again for silverware, napkins, or salt and pepper. Chatting with their friends, who can often be found lounging at the counter, or at one of the tables. I will give Steak 'n Shake credit for some things. The food is in the decent to good range, with the steakburger platter, and the chicken strips being my favorites.
