How responsive is Steak 'n Shake's customer service?

Very poor 🤒
We don't know much about how Steak 'n Shake handles customer complaints outside ComplaintsBoard, but what we see here, on our website, is quite disappointing. We think there might be reasons for the company's actions (like not knowing about the complaints), and we would be happy to see them among customer-focused businesses that easily solve customer problems. But until that happens, we ask reviewers to be cautious when dealing with Steak 'n Shake and using their services, and to carefully read the experiences of other customers on ComplaintsBoard, because who is warned is armed, you know! 💪

Steak 'n Shake restaurant

Let me begin by saying I tried to order online but the website did not show the special so I had to call in the order. When we got to the drive thru they told us we had to come inside to get the order. I have a cold & did not want to get out of my car & go inside, but I had no choice. We walked into the restaurant & saw 2 kids size milkshakes in the.

Steak 'n Shake entire operations

I grew up in Indiana and lived steak and shake. When I moved to Texas I was disappointed that I would have to wait 30 years to get to Texas. But your location in league city is the worst experience food service the store itself was nasty and employees were rude. I've been to this location 3 times. Everytime it gets worst. Your management needs changed or.

Steak 'n Shake night supervisor or boss

For a boss she is rude every time I come in and gives me dirty looks like I'm not supposed to be here or waisting her time I work for door dash and for example tonight she did the same thing she always does and then told me she didn't have my order on her screen yet that I needed to get moving on down the road. What the heck is that about she is very rude.

Steak 'n Shake horrible meat, nasty fries, waiting forever

We got there at 7:30 and waited to be seated for about 10 minutes then it took about another 45 minutes before our food and drinks were brought to us the meat was paper thin and dry as hell it was all disgusting and overall shameful that such a good place turned into a [censored] hole. The milkshakes were melted nobody came by saying how long it was gonna be and.

Steak 'n Shake delivery from postmates

This is the second time in a week or so that 2 different drivers from postmates gave me an incomplete order, which leads me to obviously believe that the dublin employees are to blame both times. I believe they are sending out deliberately incomplete orders to passively dissuade people from ordering through courier services in the later hours. Its either.

Steak 'n Shake service and cleanliness

The restaurant is in bad need of cleaning. No hairnets for any of the cooks. There were can and trash all at the front door outside. Also a big garbage bag full of old donuts. I'm guessing from Krispy Kreme a block down the road. Service is terrible at this location. And when did Steak N Shake start using plastic utensils?? Just really think this store should be looked into asap. Thanks

On 11 Jan 2020 at 11:25am I had the unfortunate pleasure of visiting this Steak n Shake and soon as you walk in the door there's water everywhere, I mean the ceiling was leaking really, really ban and the floor was soaked, with water continuously coming from the ceiling. I walk in a take seat because wanted my food to go. So I sit and sit and sit, so.

Steak 'n Shake cleanliness of restaurant and employees not being professional

We used to visit this steak and shake several times a month. I've never written a complaint to a restaurant before now. The restaurant smells and is filthy. The light fixtures and ceiling vents are caked with dust and debris. The last few times we were there these are a few things that we witnessed: Employees off the clock hanging out by bar, while one.

Steak 'n Shake service

I stood at the door to be seated for a while. When I finally got seated it took a while for anyone to come to my table and ask me my drink order. I end up ordering a extra cheeseburger at the end and I had to ask another waitress if my cheeseburger was ready. The waitress kept disappearing and people where waiting. It was only one waitress and she couldn't.

Steak 'n Shake filthy conditions

Yesterday I was going to stop in and have a quick bite. When I was entertaining the store, the front door had spit or vomit on it. So I had to go the bathroom before I sat down. Omg the bathroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned all year. The whole restaurant looked dirty and dingy, I left, I couldn't eat any food there. It was around 11:00 am. I will never eat there again. It's kinda sad, because I liked the shakes so much.

Steak 'n Shake service

Please provide this location with more emplyees. Went inside and was told that they only had one person cooking and one waitress. She said it would take at least an hour to get served. Decided to go next door to Olive Garden and 45 mins after I was done eating and I decided to go back to Steak and Shake drive thru for some shakes. It took 42 mins to finally get my shakes!

Steak 'n Shake to go order

Went through drive through to order 7 by 7 was told I had to come inside. Went inside and ordered after long hard day of moving I could barely walk spent $14.90 and they did not include my fries with my order. They have one job to do and screwed it up. This isn't cheap fast food and there is no excuse for leaving food out of order. I was so tired I didn't.

Steak 'n Shake I did not receive the double steak cheeseburger.in addition to that my fries and chicken fingers were cold.

On Monday, December 23, 2019 at 2:10 pm, I placed an order with coupons for chicken fingers with fries and a double steak cheese burger with bacon and fries. I received the fries and chicken fingers, in which they were cold and no cheese burger. I called the store and was on hold for approximately 8 minutes after speaking with and employee. An employee advised me to return to the store with my receipt and I'll be given another sandwich. The employee did not identify himself. I also called corporate office and was on hold for 28 minutes and no one ever picked up. This is unacceptable. I've gotten food from Steak and Shake on numerous occasions. However, I've noticed this year that service has declined at Store No. 219 . I really would appreciate receiving hot food and my full order. Employees should be double checking bags as an effort to make sure that the order is complete. It an inconvenience to return to the store, especially when it is a 20 minute drive away from my house. ~Mz Pat

Steak 'n Shake cursing

Two employees at this location shared a post on facebook, one being a manager who posted and the other an employee. On this post you can see that the manager wrote bi*ch on the sandwich of said employee. This is a terrible example that is being set by the management over at this location and both parties see nothing wrong with what was said and posted. If.

Steak 'n Shake food / bed bugs

I've been to this location a couple of times. The first time I was there the latino lady was awesome food was great and she didn't even have help that night in the dining room. But everything was great. But when I get home and take off my clothes there's a bed bug on my shirt big and nasty. Called the next day to inform them.. So I go back 12/22/19.

Steak 'n Shake spilled milkshake in our car

The drive thru girl spilled a entire butterfinger milkshake in our car and we had to get out and clean the car and my dad off in the cold and rain and no one gave a crap about it and the food and everything was very below par. I asked for onion and had one onion slice on my burger and no one. They also forgot our 4 waters and made us late to our show we had.
