    Not even the correct fries. People come specifically for the beef tallow fries and are given non standard fries.

    Service has become abysmal within the last five years. Store needs a complete overhaul of staff and management.

    Free Fries!

    I had a pretty good drive-thru experience at this Steak 'n shake! They are participating in the current promotion of free fries in the drive thru, you just have to ask for them. The service was pretty quick and the milkshakes and fries were great! Would visit again!

    If you are looking for a great burger cooked to order this is a great place to come. They have hand dipped milkshakes that are wonderful and the French fries are great, too. If you are wanting something other than a hamburger they can do that, as well. This restaurant reminds me of the 'soda fountain' drug stores of yesteryear. The service is Wonderful, fast, and everything is made fresh and to order. They offer a separate kids menu, as well. They have breakfast and Lunch offerings.

    There was first and foremost NO desire to get anyone seated, no pep at all... We've watched 20 people leave since we've been here alone. Food was 100% as always but the only desire was to handle as many customers as they felt they wanted

    This place has been around for a little while and I have had some really bad experiences here. This visit was an exception. It certainly was not my choice to go here because of my prior experiences with this location. Chartasia was our waitress. She was very attentive and patient. My wife wasn't too pleased with her for some reason because she thought she was just standing around, but my mother did take a while to place an order. We also had a manager, I believe, stop by and check on us at one point. This was a sharp contrast to some of the previous experiences in the past few years. I basically got a double cheeseburger with fries. Everything was great. The food was hot and fresh. The fries were hot. The burger was delicious. My wife let me try her burger, which was some odd concoction with peppers on it and it was probably better than my burger. My mom also got a burger with bacon and she said it was very delicious. We were all in agreement that the food was very good that day. It makes me think I wouldn't mind going there at another time now. I will still not give them more than 3 stars probably ever. I am probably at 2 good experiences out of 6 at this point. I just think they gave me a little hope with the meal and service we received.

    The slowest service ever. Noone is in a rush at all. Even my 9 year old said why are they taking their sweet time. From working in restaurants almost my whole life there is no multitasking, and no good management here AT ALL. If Managment can see people waiting at the door for more than 5 minutes and waiting on 3 burgers and fries for an hour and not say anything or address the issue it will never get fixed because it is a problem from the top. Several tables had the "where is our food" look on their face also the waitress is in the back cooking the food while the dining room has 14 dirty tables. Nice staff just very very very slow service.

    In Georgia, Steak n Shake is as close as you'll get to Califoria's perfect burger joint "In n Out". I only wonder how does McD's and BK survive with such competition? S&S chili cheese fries compare favorably to I&O's animal style fries. You gotta try'em.

    Utter chaos. Stopped on a weeknight. Not super busy. Seemed enough employees. But complete confusion & disorder behind the counter.

    Fast service, good food. Staff is friendly and not too much negative. Fries seemed a little cold but would definitely go back and recommend.

    Great food. Slow staff. The last three times I've been I've waited over 30 minutes in the drive thru, for my order to still be wrong.

    We were passing through Albany for the night and remembered we enjoyed a Cheddar's in another city,…read moreso we decided to stop by. Service was fast and kind. We started with the Wisconsin Cheese Bites which were SO good. Basically like normal Mozzarella Cheese Sticks, except bite sized. Probably my favorite thing about the visit! I got the New Orleans Pasta and my husband ordered the Country Fried Chicken with mashed potatoes and red beans and rice. My pasta was really good, but the sausage kinda got to me after a few bites. You ever try something and it's fine at first, but the more you eat it, you're like, "ummm, maybe not..."? My husband loved the chicken, but was disappointed to see the red beans and rice had bell peppers and onions in it. I tried them myself and ehh, they weren't the best. Maybe we had Popeye's red beans and rice as the expectation. Still, overall a good experience and we'd definitely go back.

    Had lunch at Cheddars while in town. Our server was very pleasant. At times, it took a while for…read moreher to get items to us, but she had a big party to attend to as well, so we were patient and didn't mind the wait too much. We started the meal with the Spinach Dip (and chips), along with mouth-watering honey butter croissants (YUM!!!). The three stars represent issues with our order. Me and one of my sisters had the Salmon entree, with two veggies. The portions for the veggies seemed to be more fit for a kid's meal than an adult meal. I said as much to the server. She apologized for the meager helping of green beans and provided a decent portion. My other sister had the New Orleans pasta. My father ordered a steak - medium rare. However, the steak he received was very rare! We tried to get him to return it, but he didn't want to cause any problems and decided to just eat the steak as is. Really, the food should be cooked/served as ordered and expected. Aside from these issues, the pasta dish was good, the Salmon was good, and the veggies were tasty as well. I will probably return at another time and hopefully, we will have a better experience in terms of receiving adult veggie portions and our food exactly as ordered.

    This location is what the city of Albany has been missing! They literally have the BEST food in the…read morecity. Now let me give an honest review. I had the lamb chops with mac and brocolli. The lamb chops were perfectly cooked to temperature and the flavor was impeccable. The Mac and cheese was a little too bland for my liking, being from the south the Mac n cheese has to HIT! The broccoli was almost better than the chops, sautéed perfectly and the flavor my God! Great job chef The service was 1000/10! My bartender was Tory and she was running the show! She had to work both bars by herself but she didn't miss a beat! This slowed her down a little bit with our rounds but she handled herself very well and her attitude stayed bubbly and bright. Our whole crew was impressed by her bartending skills, she made a KILLER lemon drop! The bar there is what brings us back, the girls are always super friendly and as backed up as you guys usually are on the weekends the bartenders always make sure we have a great time. We don't mind spending our money for great service! Job well done to the bartenders at Fin & Feathers! The ambiance is nice, but we'd definitely like to see that stage utilized so us business professionals can have a weekly hangout spot. Maybe a live band or some karaoke would be great! All in all we had a great time and we'll definitely be regular patrons of this franchise. Looking forward to trying the other locations as well, great job guys!
