Disappointed. Got the sausage egg and cheese croissant breakfast sandwich. Very greasy and salty. Tasted like a hamburger. Grill should be cleaned between different meats. Did not taste good. Just got a mouthful of grease and salt! DD has a better sausage egg and cheese croissant. When I opened the sandwich, the egg yolk dripped all over my pants and it was a mess all over the place! The cook looked unhappy there! So obviously the food wasn’t cooked with love nor did it taste like it. The latte was ok. The potatoes lacked the salt that he overused in the sandwich. Update went back today for lunch and so much better than breakfast was. There was a different cook and the food was not greasy or salty. It actually was delicious. The chili was a little too spicy for me but the French fries were hot and so good! The cheeseburger was so good! The coffee was good. The Mac and cheese was ok. But everything was delicious. Much better experience. The workers were so friendly.

Since last year I always wanted to come here and yesterday was my 1st and last time going to this place.. I was blown way that they did not have any price on there website how does an establishment not have prices on their website. Without knowing the prices, I went ahead and called my order in which was a cheeseburger plate, A chicken sandwich and onion rings the grand total was 39 bucks. I was shocked but I had high hopes that this was going to some good food. As I picked my order up i was curious to see why these 3 items cost 39 bucks. they charge me for lettuce, tomato cheese. I was so baffled by this, and when I got home…..boy was this the biggest disappointment ever I was so upset that I paid this much, I’ve Could’ve went next-door to Bill Gray’s and had a better meal. moral of the story is never go to Don’s originals. PS don thanks for showing me the Grand Canyon….

I grew up in Rochester and my mother started taking me to Don & Bob's (now Don's Original) in Seabreeze in the early 50's. Their burger (a ground steak sandwich) is the perfection of this American classic. And, the hot sauce they make on the premises using a closely-guarded recipe, makes it a truly unique experience. I order my sandwich on a soft hamburger bun with everything plus extra hot sauce, and add a little ketchup for sweetness. Request their complimentary pickle slices, and if you want a side, I recommend the fried onion rings. Their motto is "Where Quality Predominates". Remarkably, they've consistently lived up to that promise for the 70 years I've been going there. If you're in Rochester, this is a must stop. If you like burgers, I guarantee you will be amazed and delighted.

A place that took the advice "do one thing well and you have a restaurant." The burger or ground round as it's called here is one of thee best in its 1/3lb weight class at the $5 mark. It can be made to order with your choice of toppings and condiments. My suggestions don't stop there... Skip the combo and get a frozen custard instead. I can't recommend getting the combo for an extra $5. The run of the mill 1/2lb of steak fries and watered down 12 Oz fountain drink is expensive.
