Steak is pronounced same as stake.
We pronounce streak as "streek" but just take the r out to spell steak and we don't pronounce it as "steek" but like you say it's pronounced the same as stake.

Then you have street which is pronounced the same as streak just with a different consonant sound at the end but one is spelled with double e's and one isn't.
