This is the place you go to if you feel like revisiting your High School Days!
Old School. Greek run. Slovaki and Burger Joint. Richmond Hill Gem.
30 Sec Summary
----------------------
1. Milk Shakes & Real Steaks
2. Burgers (big, tasty (alittle greasy!) - customize it baby ! Cheese, Bacon if so desire, real lettuce, onions, tomato catchup and mustard!)
3. Really greasy spoon fries (extra salt)
4. Good portions for Slovaki (try the Chicken)
5. Price ok - $15-20
6. Friends rave about the Banquet Burger and Onion rings
7. Busy late at night.
8. Truckers used to stop and block Yonge Street North to do a pit stop here!
9. Avoid the bathrooms (NOT CLEAN) - REALLY DISGUSTING -

An old school burger join, worth checking out. They're open late (usually until 2am), so it's pretty convenient if you fancy a late night snack. Don't expect the best burger or customer service. Order the double burger, since the single is too thin. They are very conservative with toppings, so make sure to ask for extra. Also don't be too picky, or else the owner will give you a death stare (or likely ignore you). Don't miss out on the fries.
In short, a decent burger for a decent price. Just don't set your expectations too high. -

I hope this mom and pop isn't run only by a mom and pop. The hours run 6:30 am until 2 am weekdays with a 3 am closing Thu-Sat. Dudes!
A double cheeseburger and fries runs you about $8. They have a compelling $5 breakfast.
The burger won't win any awards. It's a very Harvey's experience. The fries are exceptional although you might find you need to add a touch of salt.
The number of parking spots seem to exceed the number of tables by a factor of 10. I suspect there are a lot of late nighters who park and mow down in or on their cars. Seating is fairly limited and pretty old school. This place probably hasn't seen a reno in decades. -

Nothing was special about this place at all
its your typical old school burger joint, probably opened back in the days where i wasnt even born
I can say the burgers are similar to harveys which is just 2 mins away from this place
Pretty pricy if you ask me for the type of rundown burger joint
This will be my first and last time here
Johnny burgers is way better -

Well what can I say. It's a trip to the 80's alright. I personally think that the place needs to be a little updated. Although the food (burgers and fries) are good, the choice for toppings is limited. The cook doesn't wear gloves when preparing food. Both of the guys that were working today don't look happy at all to be here. Have some sort of attitude.
No debit/credit. Cash only. They do have an ATM machine on site, but who wants to pay extra fees for withdrawal and than bank fee?!
Overall..... Although people say it's busy at night, it was the first and the last time for me. -

I'll tell ya, it's very comforting knowing you have a stellar burger joint within 2.4km of your house. I've heard rumours that Steer inn has been around for 60 years. Whether or not this is true I don't know, but I do know it's been around for 30+ and there's a reason why it hasn't moved or closed down.
This greasy spoon is known for their burgers and onion rings. In addition to the former, they offer steaks, souvlaki and chicken fingers etc. etc. But really you don't wanna mess with any of that if you hit up this joint. For as long as I can remember, they've always had the 2 grumpy old men working in there. I swear, every time I go in there they barely look at you at any point. Act as politely as you can! You'll be lucky to get a smile or word out of them. Nonetheless, solid solid burgers and onion rings.
I highly recommend the Banquet Burger (bacon & cheese) and greasy as folk onion rings. The Banquet Burgers are deliciously cooked patties, and I've said it once and I'll say it again and again, the BUN is one of the most important aspects of a burger to me (Johnny's!). Steer in has these larger than normal square shaped buns that are so light and fluffy (Johnny's!). It truly transforms the meal for me.
Probably gonna hit Steer Inn for lunch now, lol.
Please note: Johnny's forever remains the best burgers I know of in the GTA. -

***** Onion rings ARE the best!
"the 2 guys" have run the place for at least 25 years... yeah, I'm old :)
The home fries served with breakfast are REAL and tasty.
No, I've NEVER seen an episode of: coughing; sneezing; runny noses; or any other body fluids... on or toward food. I guess anyone could have a bad day now & then tho.
Let's face it, it IS A "GREASY SPOON" and I'm glad 'cause they're hard to find :) If they ever start wearing plastic gloves... well, might as well head off to McD's or a some other crappy franchise -

Great to support a local independent burger place like this instead of the boring corporate types. This is a institution in the Richmond Hill area. At one time it was like a half-way house on the way North from Toronto in the middle of nowhere on the outskirts of Richmond Hill but the town has grown to surround it. It maintains its Blast from the Past, circa 1980 look and feel however despite its bland up-to-date neighbours.
Given the era and Greek owners, one has a drive to re-live the Belushi SNL skit: "Cheeseburger, Cheeseburger, Cheeseburger!" -

Steer Inn has a very special place in my heart, in Richmond Hill there is very little to do at night, especially if you are under 19, which is why you will find Steer Inn packed at 3am almost every night of the week. Steer Inn does not have very good hamburgers, they come from a box and the guy who prepares it (either of the two) always has a chest cold and will cough on your food. Where Steer Inn really hits the mark is with their Onion Rings. I will always order onion rings instead of French fries, and the onion rings at Steer Inn are among the finest I've ever had, they are surrounded by a thick crisp layer of breading with sweet onions in the middle and enough grease to turn a roll of paper towels clear. I can't say that it's worth the drive to Richmond Hill specifically for these onion rings, but if you happen to be there for any reason and are hungry go to Steer Inn and get their onion rings, its completely worth the heart attack.
