It was really good for a chain burger, but I think Freddys tastes just as good. Both are a step up from Carls Jr., Wendys, Whaterburger, Burger King and the like.........but still not on Chris Madrids level. :nope

Live up North. Have never understood the hype. They burger is OK; that is all. I actually think Whataburger is a step up from it....Really miss the great burger places in Texas; don't have equivalents up there. Chris Madrids; Chesters, hell Fuddruckers, That one in Helotes I can't remember the name of....

For one it's not a "water" burger, two, that's blasphemous.

Haven't eaten at a Steak and Shake in at least a decade--never bothered to eat there when I lived in Pitt.

Freddy's started out fine, but, the one here (Phoenix) altered the quality of the burger and now it's just shit. I don't know if that is nationwide, but, it went from a decently thick burger to a paper thin model.

I've found Five Guys to be steady and good quality. There is a place about 10 miles out up on the Carefree Highway (Wildhorse Cafe) that serves a fine burger. They also serve a fantastic bowl of chili. It's a bit of a drive though and it's two lane up and back and kind of a death trap trip.

Either way, it's still just glorified Jack in the Crack.

Maybe it's just me but I do feel it disgusting to eat at a restaurant, you can't even make sure if the cook had washed his hands after taking a pee before resuming the work on your meal. What you eat and drink in a restaurant may very well contain a mixture of the cook's urine and semen, or her urine and blood if the cook is a female

I've never been, but I heard they opening one at the SA airport----don't know if more are planned for in town. I will have a Freddy's once or twice per year maybe, but I just can't take the ridiculous amount of salt they use on the meat. No way do I use the drive-thru, Freddy's has to be eaten immediately while hot or you get it home sogged out with grease.

Freddy's burgers are the worst. IMHO

Steak n Shake blows, badly.

Whataburger has gone way downhill too.

Pretty much my attitude lately is that fast food just sucks horribly. I'd way rather cook and have good food for a couple of days for cheaper.

There's already on in town. Steak and Shake Signature is open in the Alamo Ranch area. There's also a regular Steak and Shake planned for just south of the Rim.
