Always good never leave disappointed , so much to choose from I'll have to come back until I complete the menu! Two locations now! Glad something worth while is in that building to stay. read more

I ordered the half sized Eggs Benedict and a single marrionberry pancake, my hubby ordered the chicken fried steak with sausage gravy and eggs. Both meals were delicious! Friendly wait staff, nice environment and quick service made this a delightful experience! read more

Can I give it 6 Stars? Steve's Cafe has great food and wonderful people in a charming atmosphere. What more can you ask for? I ate there on consecutive days last week as I dropped my daughter off at college. The stuffed French toast was out of this world. Deliciousness oozed out of every crevice. The Marion Berry Pancakes with Marion Berry Syrup hit the spot perfectly. Fluffy and delicious just the way a pancake is supposed to be. My daughter loved her waffles when I took her there on Saturday. I won't be in Helena often, but when I am I will make it to Steve's Café. I did buy a gift card that I will send to my daughter so she can go there with some classmates and enjoy herself. read more

This place was a delicious stop along our 10 state tour. Highly recommend one of the desserts that are made from scratch.

Super awesome atmosphere! Staff fast and friendly! Great menu and prices. Definitely recommend Steve's.

Steve's is as good as a diner experience gets. The only downside is that other people know it. Unless you get there early on weekends, be prepared to wait. When you finally get your seat, coffee is there (and is above average diner coffee). We normally go for any of the specials (the pumpkin stuffed french toast stands out) or our favorite, the corned beef hash. The hash browns stand up to the No Sweat's hash browns, and the serving sizes are on the very large side. We normally go to Steve's after a late-night celebration, and don't plan to each lunch afterwards because it's difficult to stop eating once it's in front of you. Be aware, if you order a meat side (e.g. bacon, sausage), it will come in a larger than normal portion (at least in our experience). I think people stay there so long because it takes so long to get thru all the food. It's not "fine" dining, but it is as good as it gets for a diner in the middle of strip malls in the Helena valley. It compares very favorably with diners anywhere in the country (and we've sampled quite a few), and in general, the food quality is far superior. To go even further, I don't think you can get this kind of experience outside the US or Canada, and Steve's is a paragon of the "kozy kountry kitchen" archetype of American food. Prices are very reasonable for the quality/quantity of food that is served (we've never left there without a substantial quantity of leftovers that never make it to the next day), and we've found the waitstaff to be very courteous and helpful, even when they're on their 5th hour of being slammed by hungry brunchers. I'm so happy this restaurant is here in Helena. read more

I've never had a bad meal here! Just be prepared to wait and make sure your entire party is present. They won't seat you until your whole party is there on busy days (like Sunday morning brunch!). read more

Great local restaurant with a great name. I had the Denver omelette with hash browns and pancakes. Fresh ingredients, large portions at a reasonable price. read more

This was a nice place for breakfast. Three of us had a late breakfast on a Friday and it was 50% filled with customers. Everyone was very polite and the food was good. read more

Breakfast on a weekday morning, food was fine but service was not great at all. Maybe it was that we were there with a kid and a baby? Felt like we were getting dirty looks for being there. Unfortunate because people rave about Steve's but I was really unimpressed. read more

Went there for breakfast had a taco omelette with pancakes. Omelette was ok. But pancakes never came. Was greasy hash browns. Asked for ketchup for one on table was empty. Never got it. Waiter asked if I needed anything but left before I was able to say anything. Went to pickup when done. Thank goodness for tums in there read more

Fast service, clean. Changing table in the bathroom. Reasonable prices. I had pulled pork, which was perfect. Also sampled some of my sister's pancakes with huckleberry syrup - amazing! read more

Always great food. I had a short stack homemade sausage and a couple eggs this morning that were out of this world.

Admittedly, I've only been to Steve's once, so I can't speak for their consistency. On the other hand, the one time I went was with a largish party for breakfast on a weekday, when one would expect the waitress who served us to not really be expecting to deal with a large group whose members didn't all show up at the same time. She still gave us great service, and was friendly throughout. I had the breakfast burrito with hashbrowns. The burrito was very tasty and I would eat another quite happily, but what really impressed me where the hashbrowns. I always order hashbrowns the first time I go to a new breakfast place, knowing there's about a 90% chance they'll be a sad, soggy, greasy pile of mushy potato, but hoping nonetheless that this time I'll hit that 10% chance of something good. The hashbrowns at Steves are the best I can remember having: enough uncrisped potato in the middle to give them substance and moisture, with a crunchy, texture-perfect top and bottom. read more

Visited on beautiful Sunday morning and the restaurant was very busy; not surprising given they were recently voted Best Breakfast in Helena. However, if this is the best breakfast, Helena has a lot of room for improvement. We were seated pretty quickly--awesome. Then we were served coffee right away--but the coffee was burnt. Our food came fast and it was fine, except my omelet came with avocado. Avocado that I was so unripe, I could pick up a slice and fold it in half without breaking it and it would snap back into flat position. Obviously not edible. Really glad I didn't pay $2.75 to have avocado ADDED to something as the menu suggests you can do. The rest of my meal was pretty good and so was my husband's. Service: efficient but not very warm or friendly. We got our check soon after we were done eating, which is great because I hate waiting forever at the end of the meal for the bill. We will probably eat here again wit h lower expectations and maybe stick to the more signature menu items, skip the coffee. read more

I travel constantly and eat at restaurants a lot. I get tiredm of the same old fare. This has the standards and I'm sure they are great but I had one homemade Chorizo sausage and one huckleberry pancake and eggs. Wunderbar! Large portions, reasonable price, adequate service and findable. I would have ordered the French toast as opposed to the pancake. The pancake was adequate itself, but sublime because of the huckleberries and huckleberry syrup. It was just a vehicle for the syrup and fruit. Don't go here for the ambience, or the service go here for the food. It's killer! A true find! read more

I think this is the best breakfast place in town. With most meals you get two sides to choose from. I got hashbrowns and pancakes. It is more food then I ever could think about finishing. I ordered the Mexican sausage. It is the perfect amount of spicy. For less then $10, I feel like I got two meals. read more

Love Steve's! Only thing not to love is that everyone else in Helena loves it too so it can get crowded! Corned beef hash is the best!

I read the other reviews before deciding to go here for breakfast while visiting Helena. The corn beef hash doesn't disappoint! It was so delicious. The service was quick and efficient. It's a great little breakfast spot. read more

Voted best breakfast place in Helena. The food is awesome!! My husband and I always get the chicken fried steak with eggs, hash browns, and pancakes. So good! I have also tried the stuffed French toast and the huckleberry lemonade, both very good! I would suggest that everyone try Steve's while they are in town. We always bring our out of friends there! read more

The food was good. The issue I had was the kitchen staff eating and drinking while prepping food and not much in the way of hand washing going on. We were seated with an open view of the kitchen. Service was good and I like they are local. read more

I got the pulled pork sandwich, the pork was hard and chunky and tasted a little "off." Asked for crispy fries but they weren't, in fact some were like raw potato. My wife ordered a vegetarian omelet. The egg was good and had nice supply of veggies with a somewhat unripe avocado. The side of pancake was ok, fluffy with a taste of vanilla but not as good as my home cooked just add water ones. Staff very friendly. I'd give it another try. read more

Steve's Cafe - Inside view, vinyl covered seats, bright atmosphere, diner feel. - Cafes Near Me - Helena, Montana

Crowded and for good reason! The breakfast was delicious and the coffee kept flowing :) Nice staff.

Great service. Place was busy and packed but we were seated quickly. Food was amazing. Worth the hour drive from great falls. We will be back again and again. read more

Stay with the breakfast menu it's always great. The two times I've done lunch the sandwich has been unimpressive. Both times the bun was so soggy you had to eat with a fork. read more

Had a chicken sandwich with fries. 100% microwaved. No grilled at all. Lousy fries. Terrible coffee. All for 13 $. Bad joke. I was sick to my stomach 3 hours later. THis place doesnt know real food. And asking someone from Helena to understand what that is ..a waste of time. read more

Fantastic gluten free options, friendly staff, reasonably priced menu. Staff and kitchen went above and beyond to make sure we had a delicious gluten free meal. read more

Big filling breakfast. Always a wait. Service is stuck up and holier than thou... Chicken fried stake is the same as any Sysco breakfast joint.... But I still go there. Don't buy the drip coffee, it's bad. read more

Steve's is always a favorite place to eat. Best place for breakfast in Helena but lunch is also very good. Service is great and always friendly. read more

My favorite!! Always amazing and the wait staff is excellent. I love going to Steve's-breakfast out is such a treat. I have friends who need gluten free food and I can't believe how big their gluten free menu is. People usually only have a few things to choose from. Just a great Helena institution! Love it! read more

The food is good, the servings are big and the price is right. What the heck else do you want? Folks who don't like Steve's should stick to IHOP. We have been numerous times and usually with large groups. Everyone always enjoys the food. Ask for the specials, but everything on the menu is special. I love the homemade corn beef hash; the french toast and or pancakes are really good, but they give you too much; you may want to share.The bacon is good and cooked crisp; but, I love their Italian sausage; get it with eggs for breakfast, or with onions and peppers on a sub roll for lunch. I am going to try the meatball sandwich the next time I am there. Not a fancy place and on the weekend you will have to wait a while for breakfast... but,, if you don't want to wait, there are plenty of mediocre places in Helena for breakfast; this is not one of them. read more

Have been here a few times while visiting friends in town. The food is great and the staff are super friendly. It's a very cozy place to go on a weekend day :) read more

Why I love Yelp. Needed a good place to eat while traveling through the area. This place had great reviews which proved to be true. Great food and service. And the coffee was surprisingly good for a Diner. read more

Delicious food! Home made taste and look. My husband and I will come here again if we ever pass through town again.

Great service! Big portions. Breakfast menu was excellent. Pancakes are thick and soft, eggs cooked to order, tons of hashbrowns, lots of condiment ootions. Great price. Friendly staff. We will be back! read more

Best corned beef hash ever! Coffee is so-so but that's northern coffee for you. Nice staff and very good service too.

Typical mom an pop place nothing to special but good for family breakfast! Eggs Benedict gross chicken fried steak is good....

That was amazing! This place has small town charm. It is very clean, even the bathrooms. The waitress was very quick and helpful even with a full house. I had the corn beef hash and it was yummy! Shredded corn beef not the canned kind. Pancakes were great as well. Next time I'm trying the stuffed huckleberry French toast. read more

Went here, food was OK. Service was awful. Server was extremely rude and wouldn't stop asking us what we wanted to eat, and we hadnt even barely gotten our menu's. When we were finally ordering, the server, with a face that looked like she had just drank sour milk, talked to us like we were stupid. Then as the morning went on, we eventually heard her and all of the staff making fun of people who tried to kill themselves, saying it was for attention. after we heard this, a girl i was with confronted the server, and we left with out leaving her a tip. When i tried to call owner about this, he didn't even care enough to call me back. Worst service i've ever had. read more

Decent food but highly overrated. Completely devoid of any kind of atmosphere. If you're looking for standard, "greasy spoon"-type breakfasts, there's better options in Helena. read more
