Was Ok, I asked specifically for everything to be well done, when none of it was, the waitress knew something went wrong, said it was because they have a small grill, not sure why, I have had better.

The fish and chips really went downhill. Used to be battered and crispy. Now it looks and tastes like its from a box. The fries were slightly undercooked. The hot hamburger meal didn't come with veggies like it states in the menu. Also they use turkey gravy on a hot hamburger. No one offered to refill our drinks. The burger itself was very good and handmade.

Very good prices and excellent breakfast food. Probably my favourite spot for breakfast in Hamilton. The bacon is crispy and the home fries are seasoned and taste so good! Breakfast is about $6/$7 and the coffee is good too!

Best breakfast in town. Homefries, special spices and onions, make for the perfect side to your bacon and eggs. The rye bread is worth the switch. Friendly service and 40+ years in business tells you something.

The worst for take out. Honestly Steve's has gone way down hill the past few years... don't go here. It's nasty for there regular breakfast i ask for soft bacon and they give it to me raw. Ridiculous . And pancakes r hardly ever cooked properlly. Go to wimpys on main and Locke pics below r my takeout from steves... they put the toast in with my breakfast so it was completely soggy. And the second picture is actually a picture of bacon completely Raw

First off I gotta give the waitresses huge props, they're very friendly and have a great since of humor, food is great and priced well (Eggs Benedict is my personal fav)It's not a large place and is regularly busy, so not exactly a place for large groups, but for groups of 5 or below it's great.

Excellent selection of mediocre warm-ish food worth half the prices paid at best. The home fries are terrible, like baked, dry and lumpy mashed potatoes. The senior waitress is friendly, clumsy, forgetful, spits in your eyes when she talks, is prompt with coffee refills but not with refilling water. Our food arrived quickly to the table. My omelette tasted fair, though I paid $3.95 for a sprinkle of feta cheese. I expected more from dishes priced on a higher scale. Some menu items, like the Eggs Benedict plate, are listed under the category of foods served with home fries and toast. Don't be mistaken. This dish does not come with toast, but you can expect to pay for it. This is a great restaurant for some who need convenience and to feel full, but the overall experience was awkward for my partner and I who's standards aren't even remotely high.

The restaurant is clean and quiet. The service is excellent. The server was first rate and attentive. The two breakfast orders were placed and arrived in a few minutes and were hot.The food , coffee and toast were perfect. The bill and tip for two was reasonable. All in all a excellent experience for my first time.

Breakfast was good! But finding a place to park was not good. At all. You'll be lucky to find a place to park that you don't need to pay for. So that needs to be taken into account because it affects the overall cost of your breakfast.But as far as the quality, it was really great! It was delicious - even the price for our meals was very reasonable! 5*Unfortunately, for me, finding parking is way too difficult for a breakfast.

I love a good "greasy spoon" and Steve's is one of the best. Fast and friendly service, high quality food at excellent prices, and most importantly good coffee. Steve's is a must for a straight up, no fuss breakfast.

in the 10 plus years that I've being a patron of Steve's open kitchen the owner and Chef has never really warmed up to us but the staff are all fantastic hard-working lovely women and although the home fries are slightly undercooked there's a hot and fresh serving of community that cannot be compared to any other breakfast spot. Steve's open kitchen is easily considered the cheers of breakfast spots

Went there for breakfast for the first time. Food was okay, a bit greasy. I received my bill, and while paying I was in conversation with my friend. So it was my fault for not noticing; however I was charged an extra $4 for to add cheddar to an omelette. I ordered I a cheddar omelet with ham, but was charged for a ham omelet with $4 cheddar. Before ordering pay attention to the fine print. It was totally not worth that extra $4.

Very clean and welcoming restaurant, after many years passing by I had the chance to enjoy an excellent breakfast at 1:00 in the afternoon, before it closed at 2:30 for the rest of the day.
