“My girlfriends and I love going to Original Steve's Diner in Victor. The restaurant has a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. You can tell the staff really loves their jobs and they give excellent attention and service to patrons. The owner John and his wife Elizabeth have truly mastered the art of upscale diner cuisine. Although many people love the ultra delicious pancakes, I was ecstatic when they added crepes. The cheesecake crepes with berries paired with a side of bacon are the perfect pairing of sweet and savory. I will definitely be a regular customer.“

“Great prices, great portions and love the friendly people!“

“What a sweet way to end a wedding trip! This airport eating expereince almost makes me want to a delay so we can come back for our next meal. Warm atmosphere, awesome owner, extensive list of beverages, cozy hot chocolate, friendly banter from the kitchen...overall great experience!“

“This is a great place. Food is great servers make you feel at home. Feel at home the minute it might take to be seated. Best breakfast place. My family also loves it when they sneak in without me.😪“

“The only issue with the food would be the normal issues you'd have with a greasy spoon. You can use your imagination. The food itself tasted amazing and more than anything else. The waitress and cook not only have a fantastic rapport with each other but also get along so well with all of the customers that it astounded me. If you could only have one waitress for the rest of your life, I would highly recommend the one that works here.

Parking: Not a ton of spots, but it's not a huge diner.

Kid-friendliness: You'll have no problem bringing your progeny here.“

“I’ve heard a lot about them from friends and was finally able to meet friends for breakfast today. All of the staff were so friendly from the time we walked in the door and until we left. So many options to choose from, service was fast and the food was GREAT!! I highly recommend them, so if you get a chance, please stop by and check them out.“

Great service .... and we definitely can't forget the great desserts!“

“A friend and I stopped by after work to get a to go order. The food was perfecto, and the service was personable and sincere and unlike any I have received at various Gates eateries. I will say while the aesthetics is less than appealing with its outdated decor; and it feels like an old, tired diner, you do get the sense that they are focused on customer service and not so much looks which is a priority for me. If the food is good and the service is up to snuff, then I am good. Unfortunately, I learned the place is up for sale and Gates could lose a good thing. Its family owned and has been a staple in the community and those are hard to replace. People should be more mindful ad grateful and less quick to slam the place that has served you and your neighbors for years. My neighbors in Spencerport love this place. Just saying.“

“My first visit was just at opening time (6 am) so nobody else there. Standard dining fare which was just what I was looking for -- breakfast, eggs, pancakes, etc. Met my buddy there and shared a 3-stack of pancakes and the frittata -- perfectly prepared on both. Less than $20 per person including gratuity. Service was excellent! Would go back in a heartbeat.“

“Good service, good food, good prices. The bacon was crispy, but not overcooked, and the blueberry pancakes were delicious.“

“Wonderful and accommodating staff. Certainly rounded out an excellent night. Go Bills!“
