Steves Famous Diner

The staff, service and food-- all delicious.The scrambled eggs and potatoes are outstanding. The complimentary bread and butter were fantastic. The banana nut muffin was amazing.

Lived here for 3 years and today was the first time I tried Steve's famous Diner‼ Our wonderful waiter was named Steve as well. We had a hard time deciding on what to order, everything, not to mention the huge list of desserts, sounded FAB. We decided to split the pot roast dinner and we tried both soups split pea and chicken orzo ! Then got an orange dream sickle slice of cake for later ! The fresh baked bread OH MAN D'Lish ‼

What a delight. A true diner and I honestly have never seen such a huge patty melt. We had the friendliest waitress who was an absolute joy to chat with at lunch. And this amazing freshly baked bread. We had to come back a couple of times for lunch, it was just that good! For breakfast or lunch I don't see how you could do better than Steve's.

A classic for locals. Steve's is a great place for an affordable meal, classic American diner food, large portions, and good service. No kids menu for breakfast, but I ordered Steve's Deluxe Breakfast, and added chocolate chips to the pancakes for my son. I still had plenty of food to eat. I also tried the pistachio muffins. SO good.

Man-o-man this is my kind of diner! It has a great hometown feel, you get a lot for your money, the staff are attentive and friendly, and most if not all the food is made right here in the restaurant; excellent! The food overload begins the moment you walk in the door. Staff just finished baking a slew of scones, muffins, and cookies that filled the dining room air with a delicious, freshly baked, sweet aroma. Upon entering you will find a display case with a variety of delicious cakes and pies to close out your meal or to take-home for later. We were promptly seated by server Donna L.; she was awesome and took great care of us. We explained to her this was our first time here and she took the time to go over several of the menu items for us.We decided on two dinner specials which comes with a choice of soup and homemade bread. Donna delivered our soup and bread a few minutes after placing our order. There are two soup options available so we picked one of each, the Beef Barley and Creamy Lemon Chicken. Both were excellent, yet we both agreed the Creamy Lemon Chicken was our favorite. The Bread is on another level and is amazing! It's a freshly made and warmed white bread but the slices are huge and thick, biggest I have ever been served. I slathered warmed butter all over mine and seasoned it with salt and pepper before dunking it in the soup. It was a major win coming here just for this bread and soup, I might just have this as my meal next time, damn!!When our meals arrived, I knew that there was no way I was going to finish it in one sitting. Could I have done it? Yes, but I wouldn't have made it to the Bandshell to see the American Stones without my insulin overload putting me down for the count first. Nancy chose the Roasted Turkey and Dressing ($15), which is basically like Thanksgiving dinner. I chose the Yankee Pot Roast ($14). Both options came with mashed potatoes and green beans. The food was delicious, hot, and exactly what a homestyle diner meal should be. Lots of mashed potatoes, green beans, meat, and gravy, no skimping here.We saved room for dessert, went with Donna's recommendation and chose the Chocolate Cream Pie ($7) to share. It was a large slice, very chocolaty, creamy, and delicious. I would definitely order this next go-around.The two meals and a slice of pie came to a total of $40.96 minus tip, which isn't bad for all the food we received. Yes, we might be able to get more at a buffet, but it won't be from scratch like it is here. The only thing that's probably 100% from scratch is the mashed potatoes and gravies. I could be wrong but I swear I could taste potato peal instant potato mix in with the mashed potatoes. I seen skins, so I know some of it was real, but I have seen where restaurants use a mix of the two to make them creamier. I was forced to used them many moons ago at Howard Johnsons, and they just have an unforgettable taste/texture to them. Also, a dark gravy like the one used on the pot roast usually comes from a premix since it can take hours or days to prepare a dark brown gravy or demi-glace. Not trying to beat them up but just something I noticed.All-in-all, Steve's is a great diner. I have been riding by this place for years and am now kicking myself for not stopping in sooner. If you are in the area and have a hankering for some delicious diner food. I highly recommend you check them out.

Wow. We came here on a Saturday around 5 pm. The place was not packed and we got a nice table. Our server Donna was super nice. We told her this was our first time.I got the turkey dinner with dressing and mashed potatoes green beans and cranberry sauce. Oh do good. My husband got the pot roast. Each dinner comes with a soup. We got the beef and barley and the creamy lemon chicken rice soup that was delicious. The meal also comes with homemade white bread cut thick with butter. I also tried their coffee it was pretty good I drank three cups. We finished the meal off with a slice of chocolate cream pie that was scrumptious, lots of chocolate flavor in the cream fluffy part was so good. They also have all kinds of baked goods.Plenty of parking. Restaurant is right near the beach. We will come again!

Very nice experience. I always enjoy Steve's on the beach when visiting the area. Very friendly casual diner like food. I ordered the fried shrimp and fries which were great. The shrimp were large and tasty. I miss the broiled shrimp they used to have on the menu as I would have much preferred that to fried. Our server was professional and dinner was well paced. The bread is always something to rave about here. And save room for dessert too!

When in Daytona Beach I always have lunch here. Great burgers, and the lemon rice soup was outstanding. I'd love to have that recipe. And yes, the bread should be famous. Easy to find on the beachside. Plenty of parking. Friendly service.

5 of us went to Steve's for diner before going to a show at the Peabody. We ordered our drinks and food. 2 ordered Roasted Turkey dinners, 1 order chicken parm, 1 shrimp and fish and the other fish and chips. When the meals came out we got 2 Roasted chicken dinners, not Roasted Turkey we ordered. The waitress looked at us as if we made the mistake. Took it back to the kitchen, came back and said they just gave out the last Turkey dinner. We did take the chicken dinners but we were not happy, I just had chicken the night before. We got the bill and the waitress did not even offer a dessert or any type of compensation for her error or attitude where she wrote down the wrong thing. I will never go back

The bread delicious Turkey tasted like a frozen dinnerLasagna was made with leftover meatloafRoast beef tasted old and frozen reheated.
