    Amazing diner! We came here as we were in Rochester for a special needs ice hockey tournament. Many people suggested we try Steve's. My son and I thoroughly enjoyed the meal. He got a burger with a side of poutine. I got a western omelette with a side of hash browns. Very good. The best thing about Steve's? Our waitress - she was just amazing!

    This is our 2nd time visiting this restaurant. Our cousin highly recommended it. We live in AZ. We first came last October, it was busy, which is a good thing. The staff was so nice, the food was outstanding, we thoroughly enjoyed it. We went again yesterday for breakfast, once again they knocked it out of the park! The waitress so so kind & funny! Thank you for the shirts & hat. It was great seeing you again, until next time!

    Finally made it to Original Steve's Diner the Henrietta location! This spot has been here for three years, and I'm glad I finally checked it out. We went on a Friday around 10:30 a.m., and it was already busy. We sat at the counter and were told weekends get even busier, so plan ahead! The servers? Sassy in the best way -- super fun and full of personality. The food hits the spot. While it's not heavily seasoned out of the kitchen, it's tasty once you add a little salt, pepper, or one of the multiple hot sauces they have on hand. The more you know! We both got the two eggs, home fries, toast, and ham -- a solid classic breakfast. The coffee is smooth, and the pancakes... Lordy, they are HUGE. If you leave hungry, that's on you. The space is light and bright , not too big, not too small. Bonus: if you pay with cash, you get a discount. Parking is available in a shared lot.

    Good food with good service even on busy weekends. Not much room to wait indoors but they give out pagers so you can wait in your car if the weather isn't great. Friendly and warm service on multiple visits. Packed menu has lots of options. Everyone in our large party was satisfied with their food. Prices are decent.

    Stopped in today for an early lunch. I ordered the Diner special (2 eggs, bacon and lemon ricotta blueberry pancake). Miranda was my server and she was very nice. The service was quick and the food was excellent! Thanks!

    Service was welcoming. Food arrived fast. Everything was good. No mimosas here, but you'll find a huge menu full of diner style recipes with anything you can imagine and more. Chill vibes, 5 minute wait on a Monday morning. Overall good experience, but probably not on the top 5 of breakfast spots.

    Margarita Omelette
    Brenda O.

    Great service. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. The decor was cool and the place was clean. We ordered the Irish Benedict , Nutella crepe and Margarita omelette. The Irish hash was good but there was a spice in it that was so overpowering that I couldn't eat it. The margarita omelette was very bland and the mozzarella on top didn't melt and was tough. The hash browns were very good. The Nutella crepes were very good, there was a lot of Nutella inside. I will go back to try something different.

    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.

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!
