We got 'em in Austin recently. It's just not the same as the S&S of my midwestern youth. They're all new and shiny and located in distant suburbs and staffed by friendly clean-faced young people.
I want my Steak n' Shake waitress to be a 70 year old chain smoking woman named Claudette who grunts "what do you want" and then returns a half hour later with cheez-friez.

I have to admit, you are correct, the ambiance is half the experience...
The story said "in the next few months," so I guess they don't have a set date yet. The funny thing was, I saw a Steak 'N Shake gift card in a Wall Mart in Peoria Az a couple of months ago, and found it odd since the closest one is in Vegas.
