The Denver metro area’s second Steak ‘n Shake has opened in Sheridan at West Hampden Avenue near Santa Fe Drive in the River Point development.
A Midwest fast-food icon, Steak ‘n Shake is renowned for its premium milk shakes and steak burgers. San Antonio-based Biglari Holdings Inc., which owns the chain, has a goal of opening about 1,500 new franchise sites around the country in the coming years. There are more than 500 Steak ‘n Shake restaurants, with 400 owned by the chain and the remainder operating as franchises.
Local franchise owners Tom and Connie Caruso have said they hope to open five of the restaurants in the area.
The Carusos’ first restaurant opened in November at 8271 S. Quebec St. in Centennial.
