Love it for the time capsule it is with a good, hearty steak dinner. Friendly bartender. Not out there often but if I am I'll swing by again.

Great old school steakhouse. The food, drinks, and service is fantastic. Had the burger which was huge and tasty. The ambiance is really cool and rustic. Two thumbs up for Steve's.

Love coming here as there aren't many places like this left. The lighting is perfect for a bar and there steaks with the magi sauce is excellent.

Food is decent and a little pricey in my opinion for the quality of food. Great history and usually crowded. If it was cheaper I’d go more
As a long time new jerseyian who has driven past route 17, I've been always curious about Steve's. Known for their sizzling steaks this restaurant is known to be an iconic institution in northern nj that have been open for 86 years. I finally ventured into Steves and ordered their iconic sizzling steak a 22oz cowboy ribeye and ordered it medium rare. Sure enough it came out sizzling served with some of their jus on top and a handful of steak fries. The steak was definitely more on the rare side but I think there is no great way to cook the steak to temp given maybe they just broil them on a hot plate. Steak was good quality -- but extremely fatty, even fattier than you would expect with a classic ribeye cut. The "jus" that the steak is served with is extremely salty -- if you don't tolerate salt well, ask for no sauce or sauce on the side. Fries were delicious, can you really go wrong with hot crispy steak fries? Sizzling steaks are also served with a side garden salad. Service was really nice and knowledgeable-- seemed like people who have worked their a long time. Inside ambience is really similar to an older dive bar, lots of animal heads, signs on the walls, fishes, and vintage pictures. Ambience and dining experience does not reflect the price of the menu items -- steak was around $55 and our one app was close to $15. Our party spent close to $250 for a sizzling steak at a dive bar -- glad I finally tried it but won't be returning. Would return if steak prices were closer to $25-30 dollars.
There was an hour long wait but truly the wait was worth it!! The bar staff were incredible and made the wait feel a little shorter ;). The food was great, the steak was cooked to perfection and the fries were incredible. The sauce was salty and the waitress told us to get it on the side and it was so good! The people there were great and such a great staple, the ambiance was fabulous! Can't wait to come back!!!

A New Jersey staple make sure and stop by to this roadside restaurant on route 17. I'm from Rhode Island and I know about this place. Get the steak with cherry peppers and French fries the service is so so depends on the mood atmosphere is nice old-school steakhouse not too fancy I wouldn't bring kids here. The waitresses are old and my kids but the steak is good. Keep your mind on that steak is good.
