Steak 'n Shake

I hadn't had Steak and Shake in years. My daughter and I decided to spend the day on Mill Ave. After seeing some sights, we decided to stop in this location and we were very pleasantly surprised. It was very crowded, but we got our order pretty fast, and it was correct. They also serve beer (for a very decent price).

The food was fantastic. First time I've been to a Steak n' Shake and was pleasantly surprised. Unfortunately my experience at this location with the staff was less than satisfactory. It took an extremely long time to order, there was one person in front of me and I was standing there for 10 minutes. I then realized it was because the cashier was extremely slow and quiet, it was nearly impossible to order. Anyway forgetting about my staff experience the food was good enough that I could forget that it took me so long to order and get that food.

The food was really delicious and I really couldnt believe how inexpensive! A burger with a fried egg and small fries was 6 dollars! It's also really nice and clean and they are open until 3 am on weekends. So my friends who like to enjoy Mill Ave to all its extent can come here to sober up with some great food!

I think this is the only Steak n' Shake in all of the Tempe area, which stinks, because this location is in downtown. Which means....a nightmare of parallel parking and on a busy weekend night, you bet you won't be able to find any street parking. That means, you have to then go to a parking garage and pay up before you can even start eating. I wish they had a parking lot to accommodate their customers because I'm sure more people would come. Their fries are pretty good and I know I'd come by more often if parking was easier. Last time I came though about a month ago, they said they no longer have salt and vinegar fries which were one of my favorites. I do hope they bring those back! I ended up having the Cajun fries. They were not too salty,and nice and crispy thin fries. Oh, and lastly, service is a little slower than your typical McDonald's but they give you a nifty vibrating thingy that lights up when your order is ready so you can take a seat while you wait.
