Great American you food is so good, your prices are high- but worth the quality... your service is rude... I know my older friend and I wee there for just over an hour and half- but just say you need the table and don't have two waitresses ask if we need anything- then the hostess ask us " to please pay the bill at the front" and then the waitress grabs my receipt before I leave to make sure I paid a tip ( which I did)... do better Great American...

Mulled cider
Jan N.

This is the most expensive diner that I have been to. The add ons are pricey; almost $6 for 2 scrambled eggs; $2 for slices of avocado added to my eggs benedict. You want a burger with fries? You may change your tune when you know it's an extra $2.60. There is no extra charge for non-traditional burger sides like veggie sticks with hummus, cottage cheese, applesauce, chips. There were no kids menus that we were aware of, or offered. Spent over $110 for LUNCH for us 2 and 3 kids under 10. We got two plain cheeseburgers with fries for the boys and it was $15 each. Even if you exclude almost $20 for 3 chocolate milks ($9), mulled cider ($5) and coffee ($3), the food itself was still expensive and didn't justify the cost. How delicious are those two scrambled eggs for $6? Was there saffron in it? I left feeling completely swindled. Read closely the fine print under each section of the menu and don't go hungry like us where we ordered burgers/sandwiches under the assumption fries are included.

Patty Melt

I went here for the first time with a friend for brunch on Sunday. We were seated fairly quickly and everyone was so friendly and worked so well together. It was so nice to see all the servers working like a well oiled machine and enjoying laughs while doing so. I had the patty melt which came with caramelized onions and thousand island dressing on marble rye, with humus and veggies. My friend had the julienned salad with Bleu cheese. Dina was our server and was just the sweetest! Everything was great and we enjoyed looking at all of the cute and funny signs on the walls and the beautiful autumn decor. I would definitely return!

Pecan waffle with strawberries & blueberries

You know them or should for breakfast it's delicious. They are now open for dinner Monday -Friday until 8pm with a special dinner menu. It includes early bird menu, 2pm-5pm. Do not hesitate on the Chicken French. It's could easily win a competition against a pricier Italian restaurant. AND you get soup or salad included no up charge!!! Come for dinner because we want to keep them as a reasonably priced dinner option in Fairport.

Good breakfast spot. Large menu and friendly service. Pancakes are HUGE. I enjoyed my vegetable omelette. The physical space is comfortable, well-lit an clean. I would definitely return.

Menu

Still good after its name/ownership change, it seems. Similar food and quality, just different names. The chipotle hollandaise is quite rich. The pancakes, even the savory varieties, are a bit sweet. Service was a bit slow, appreciate not being rushed of course but it was hard to ask for things throughout the meal and to get to go boxes so we could leave.

Steve's Breakfast Special with two over easy eggs, link sausage, Reese's pieces pancake, and side of hashbrown patties.
Jerrod B.

It had been since December 2018 that we had visited Steve's, and man am I glad I returned. Today's meal and service were fantastic! Our server greeted us right away with iced waters and took our beverage orders. We each got different types of coffee and our server consistently filled each correctly throughout our visit. The restaurant was very busy, and bustling, but the host did a great job at managing the flow of people. I ordered the Steve's Special, which was two eggs, choice of meat and a pancake or French toast. I had over easy eggs, link sausage, and the Reese's pieces pancake. The wait for food was not long at all, and it was worth it!! The eggs were cooked perfectly. The link sausage reminds me of diner sausages in the tri-state area. I also ordered two hash brown patties on the side. But let me tell you about this EPIC pancake. First, the aroma of the pancake told you right away that it was going to taste amazing, and it did. The Reese's pieces were melted and made this pancake sinful. It was absolutely divine. It was great to see this diner, with its incredible menu, offer such amazing food and fabulous service. We'll definitely be back.

Service was excellent. Food is over-rated and expensive. A fresh turkey club is actually ordinary deli.

Great Service, But a West Coast Palate Had Trouble Adjusting…read more My husband and I decided to try Rustic Taco Bar during Canal Days, hoping for a taste of our former home on the West Coast. First off, I want to give a huge shout-out to the staff. The service was truly great--super friendly and attentive, especially considering how busy it was during the festival. We really appreciated how welcoming they were. However, we found the food to be a bit of a culture shock for our palates. We understand there are regional differences, and for us, this was very different from the Mexican food we're used to. The tacos were served on flour tortillas that, since they weren't freshly made, could have really benefited from being heated or toasted on the grill to give them a better texture and taste. The biggest surprise for us was the filling. We've learned that "beef" on the East Coast often means ground beef, which was very odd for us in a taco, as we were expecting carne asada. It brought back memories of childhood taco nights rather than the street tacos we know and love. The salsa was just okay; for us, it was really missing that punch of salt and a fresh squeeze of lime juice that makes a salsa pop. Overall, the people were wonderful, but the food just didn't quite hit the mark for our West Coast tastes. If you're not used to SoCal-style Mexican food, you might enjoy this more than we did. For us, it was a reminder that we're a long way from San Diego!

Cool place with a comfy feel that was very busy, which is always a good sign. Our waitress was nice…read moreand attentive for how busy it was. The tacos here are unique with a garbage plate taco, steak frites taco among others. They don't skimp on the the size or fillings for the tacos which I guess warrants the higher price per taco. You shouldn't leave hungry which I love. Overall the food was good. I had the steak frites and whiskey barrel bbq taco. Both were very good and my wife had the rustic beer fry(fish) taco and mango marg taco. 2 downsides that pushed me from a 4 to a 3. We ordered the elote corn side dish. It came out as corn on the cob which is not practical for dining out given the amount of toppings. We managed to cut a bunch off and the flavor was great but a mess. The other was a takeout order that we were bringing home for our daughter. It was entirely incorrect and the items we got were about 1/2 the price of what we ordered. We didn't realize until we were home staring in the face of disappointment and refusal to eat what we delivered from our daughter. That said I would still go back, but lesson learned on the corn and takeout.
