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

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.

Hot cup of coffee

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

Meat sauce! So good.

Stopped here for breakfast and it was awesome. We were seated quickly, coffee was flowing and the food is homemade. I had a meat lover omelette with home fries and husband got eggs Benedict with hashbrowns. We both loved it. Make sure you try the meat sauce it is fantastic and really does go on everything. We even got some to go. Our server Kelly was happy and attentive. Prices are fair and portions are large. Couldn't ask for more. Will definitely be back.

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!

Where has this frittata been my whole life? I'm telling you. Order this. Meat lovers frittata, extra cheese, add jalapeños or banana peppers. Easiest 5 star of my life.

Food was outstanding and has been each time we've been. The Ahi noshos are terrific and our…read moredinners excellent: scallops on cheddar polenta; Salmon, Kimchi, sweet potato pancake, and fried rice (too salty) otherwise excellent especially the Kimchi influence; surf and turf (bacon wrapped meat loaf on harissa lobster mashed potatoes and the tomahawk all hit the mark. Yet the highlight of the evening our server Brad - he was outstanding - casual, knowledgeable, and attentive. Never once asked "how are we" or called anyone hun, both irritating. The only caution is the noise - high ceilings and crowds combine for a lot of screaming diners and not much to buffer the din. Intimate, no but good food and excellent service at least last night.

Brad (our waiter) was awesome! He was so knowledgeable about allergies. If he didn't know the…read moreanswer, he made sure to double check with the kitchen. This was my first time visiting. My friend and I ordered mocktails which we both enjoyed. We then ordered gochu belly buns and the braised beef French onion soup. They were able to accommodate my gluten allergy and make the soup gluten free! It was delicious. For our entrees, I ordered the sweet deal salad and my friend ordered the green curry stir fry. Mine wasn't anything crazy, tasted as I expected but it was still good. My friend, on the other hand, did not love her dish. She is a big curry person and said the sauce lacked flavor (which I tried and agreed with). The tofu was nice and crispy, dry though. There wasn't enough sauce in the dish. The mushrooms were the most flavorful.
