Steak ‘n Shake was founded in February, 1934 in Normal, Illinois. Gus Belt, Steak ‘n Shake’s founder, pioneered the concept of premium burgers and milk shakes. The Steak 'n Shake name has been symbolic of its heritage. The word “steak” stood for STEAKBURGER. The term “shake” stood for hand-dipped MILK SHAKES. Gus was determined to serve his customers the finest burgers and shakes in the business. To prove his point that his burgers were exceptionally prime, he would wheel in a barrel of steaks (including round, sirloin, and T-bones) and grind the meat into burgers right in front of the guests. Hence arose the origin of our famous slogan, “In Sight It Must Be Right.” After 79 years, we are continuing Steak n Shake’s tradition of serving the country’s best, freshest, and tastiest burgers and shakes.
{ Basso } (meaning "low" or "beneath" in Italian) is a sleek basement gastro pub with an Italian accent and a playful attitude. Descend the winding staircase and discover a restaurant abuzz with activity. From the open kitchen with its glowing wood-burning oven to the giant polished zinc-topped island bar, there is much to be seen, smelled, heard, and of course, tasted at Basso. The space itself is a feast for the eyes. Located beneath the brassiere influenced Boundary at The Cheshire, Basso is no basement after-thought. The 5,000-square foot, 150-seat space features a blend of comfort and rusticity. Intimate leather booths encircle the perimeter and the center bar features a custom-made metal headpiece suspended from panels of reclaimed Missouri barn wood. The 40-seat bar is apropos for a venue that serves up 32 beers on tap. But wine and cocktail lovers will fine plenty to whet their palettes. An Italian-centric wine list boasts a variety of unique pours, and a cocktail list sure to please those who appreciate a unique beverage. Closer to the open kitchen, two wood-topped communal tables offer a great spot to gather with a bunch of friends; or pull up a stool with new friends and take in the culinary action. An original stone fireplace offers a cozy place to relax with a drink. There’s even a semi-private lounge with red velvet couches and funky lighting, perfect for a more intimate gathering.
