  Update time...
  
  Friday morning... 2 or so am... drunk, hungry needing coffee - sound familiar?
  Well, this time around, things were a lot better!
  
  We were seated and served almost instantly, coffee right away and the cup was never ever empty. My "I'm drunky, want foody" staple of Biscuits and Gravy was hot hot and really hit the spot!
  
  Place is pretty cheap too, $15 or so bucks for 2 people... not bad.
  
  I'll give 'em the redemption star. I'm not super impressed but hey, it was 10x better than the last time.

  On Sunday mornings after church, I try to enjoy a nice breakfast...sometimes its coming home and whipping up something, other times it means going out...yesterday I chose the latter and decided to make the Steer my place for a bite to eat as I know the food is good and not that pricey.
  
  I was not disappointed with the Everything Omelette I had....very cheesy and had the right amount of other ingredients in it...and I like the fact you get the choice of toast or pancakes with it (and in some cases French Toast).  
  
  Yes there is a smoking section in this restaurant but I did not smell it from my area.  The wait staff wasn't bad but they could have come more often with the coffee refills.
  
  All in all a good experience as it usually is....not too crowded (got seated right away), and good food for a decent price...oh yea and bonus is they are open 24/7.

  I spent a lot of time in high school drinking coffee at lots of diners. The Steer has always been the best, and I ended up spedning almost all of my college breaks here because I wisened up and realized that nothing compares to the Steer.
  
  Hands down, they have the best lemon rice soup IN THE REEGE! The staff is cool and they appreciate people who actually buy food and become friends with them.
  
  There is no place better to go at night in the Highland/Munster area. Stay away if you hate smelling like smoke though, the place is one giant ashtray.

  The food is good and the price is reasonable.  The service is quick but not always the friendliest.  Has smoking section which I don't care for but itsn't horrible if you are seated far from the smokers.

  I just don't like this place. It's one of those American restaurants that have a wide variety of foods but aren't good at making any of them.

  Not sure about the folks who gave great reviews. My wife and I had lousy service and the cherry sauce on my cherry crepes was rancid. Literally made me sick. Will never go there again, advice others to avoid as well.

  I love their late 80's/early 90's decor and sour cream crepes with orange sauce.  If you're lucky, they'll be playing 90's music, and you'll feel like you're in a fantastic time warp.

  Open all night with decent food - sign me up!  I have visited many a late night for a grilled cheese and a bowl of lemon rice soup.  It definitely hits the spot.
  
  It isn't the fanciest place to go, but it's cheap, hearty, and delicious.  Sign me up.

  One of my faves, a lot of options to choose from. I love the hot wings and
  the breakfasts are really good. It's open 24 hrs so that's a plus. Jamie
  is awesome!!

  Great place for a good lunch.  The lunch will keep you full all day that you can't even eat dinner!  Wait staff is good, not too outgoing, but they work fast and efficient, which is what we like.  Never had a mistake in the order and they often check on you and get you what you need.

  The Steer is possibly the best twenty -four hour restaurant in the area as far as food is concerned. It's good all day long, and all night long. The majority of the  wait staff is not so friendly or efficient, but a couple of them are just fine. It's a nice place to get coffee in the wee hours of the night and early morning, just like "Round the Clock". Their "Stuffed French Toast' is excellent. I was hooked on it for awhile.
