    Eggs Benedict
    Jacob A.

    We love this place. Such a cute dinner with a huge selection of food. Food was great. Eggs Benedict was perfect. Everything was delicious. Everyone was so incredibly friendly and nice. Sooo many smiles.

    N.Y. Strip, eggs overeasy, English muffin, grits, and a turkey club.

    I have never had a bad meal here. I have been to almost every diner in Monroe County and this is my favorite by far. The food is superior to every diner I have been to. For almost two years I have been a regular now. The owner is also the head chef/cook and I think that's what is so special about this place's food. He takes pride in his food. Specials every weekend. I recommend the N.Y . Strip and eggs... it is a thick cut of steak. And always get the grits. You're welcome lol.

    Had an early Drs appointment this morning! I always use that as an excuse to treat myself to breakfast at the Railway afterwards. Love this place, it's small and unsuspecting and has been there for many years. When I remind people of it, they are like "Oh yah, but how is it compared to......(Name of some subpar chain) I am here to tell everyone!!! YES!!! It is the best breakfast in Rochester, made to order. Quality fresh ingredients. Our server was Jenna today! She was very nice, and completely on point. My husband told her he likes his milk when he is done with his meal. What he really likes to do, is have it nice and cold,, when he takes his last bite. Wholley Molley! It's like she read his mind. As soon as her asked me to flag her down. BAM! Glass of milk on the table. That was it for him. Now he is hooked. I have never had a slimy egg, I order them poached and they are always perfect. I love the Country Benny. It's an English muffin, with sausage patty on top of each piece of muffin. Topped with country gravy, with fried potatoes, extra crispy on the side. Yummo! My husband who is the pickiest eater, has also never had a bad meal. His favorite is 2 eggs over easy, with bacon, toast and hash browns. Place is very clean, and filled with regulars. But it is not crazy with a line out the door like Jim's on Main. Simple, delicious, caring food, that tastes like it's made with love. Their coffee is always delicious. The only cons are a small parking lot, that can be difficult to maneuver, and I'm not sure they have any heat or air conditioning. I usually feel a little chilled in the winter or hot in the summer. But Idk ‍ it could be menopause lol

    Kids pancakes

    Tasty Kid friendly Quick service Decent prices for families Accommodates large groups We were looking for a new place to eat in between running errands. It was easy to find on W. Ridge and right next to the railroad tracks. They have a parking lot and an adjacent street for overflow, but I can imagine it gets packed quickly for Sunday breakfast. Our waitress was super friendly and the food came out pretty quickly. The cheesy grits were creamy goodness! The kids pancakes shaped like Mickey's head were fun for the kids. Batter is homemade and delish that we ordered a regular order for us adults during our meal to share. Great find on Yelp!

    Meat sauce! So good.

    We came here twice on a 4 day visit, and would probably return if/when we come back to Rochester…read more It's a pretty standard diner, good breakfast, fast service, and non-stop coffee refills. There is someone just circling constantly with a pot. This is a cash only establishment, so be advised. There is an ATM. We did go at slightly off peak times, since we weren't working those days, but at those times, the restaurant seems to be a favorite of retired men, which is a good sign for a diner! They have a set menu and a specials board that I think changes daily. There's 2 full pages of breakfast, and at least 2 pages of lunch, plus the board. I'm sure you'll find something you like. I had the same thing both visits - a cheese omelet with hashbrowns and wheat toast. It was really cheesy, and I liked that it was a 2 egg omelet rather than 3, for me it was just the right size. We also split a piece of the rotating coffee cake, cinnamon walnut that day, and it was good - not too sweet, plenty of cinnamon. The guy had their 2-2-2 combo and was happy with that choice. For both of us, breakfast ran about $35, for 2 entrees and coffee, plus the cake.

It's perfect for catching a bite right before a show at the Blackfriars theatre, right next door. The food is always hot and fresh. Service is fast and friendly.

I ordered the eggs, grits, and steak. The eggs and grits were good, but the steak was disappointing. It lacked seasoning and flavor, so I ended up adding A1 sauce just to make it enjoyable. The staff was wonderful very friendly, attentive, and quick to check on us, which made the experience much better. One area that could use improvement is the restroom, as it wasn't very clean during my visit. I also found the environment to be a little too loud for so early in the morning. I was hoping for a quieter, more relaxing breakfast. Overall, I'd come back if I needed breakfast that early, but if I have other options later in the morning, this probably wouldn't be my first choice. The great service is definitely the highlight here.

The inside is light and bright, with tables, booths, and counter seating. Another plus is the convenient parking both in the back and on the street. A definite plus!

The hollandaise sauce tasted fresh, and the coffee was quite good.

There was enough left over to take some home for lunch. I got a side of grits which were good and not runny. The coffee was just okay and very hot. The staff is friendly, prices are reasonable. Bathrooms are down a flight of stairs. Great place for breakfast!
