Top Restaurants 15 Open Sunday near you in Rochester, New York

Sarah Snyder Sweet little place, super friendly staff. We had a Stone Steak Burger (I am told it was really good) and the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos which were incredible! They had fish options, vegetarian burger, chicken, and fish options available. Street parking, large bar, selection of tables and hightop tables. Clean bathroom.

Sarah Bogdan Good food, good service. We got the 5 piece fried green tomatoes to start and probably should’ve gotten the 3 piece because the pieces were a bit bigger than expected (a good thing!) and pretty filling, but so so good especially with the ranch. Ribs, greens, and mac and cheese were good too.

Loumelle Alicaya I celebrated my birthday here and it was a nice experience (they dont give out slices of cake btw lol) We ordered cocktails (too strong for my liking) and the ff: 1. crispy calamari 3/5 (not too crispy) 2 BURRATA SALAD 5/5 (my favorite that night!! I had to remake it at home coz it’s sooooo good!!!) 3. white pizza 3/5 (too oily. The cheeses they used are kinda bland) 4. ORECCHIETTE BOLOGNESE 3/5 (looks good on photo but lacks depth in flavor. Something u can cook at home with bottled sauces ) 5. Truffle fries 4/5 (it was alright) Overall, the night was awesome! The server we had was very attentive and accommodating!

Dawn LeBeau My husband surprised me with dinner at Gio’s Prime 26 for my birthday after I raved about my high tea experience there. The Inn, itself, is lovely. Decorated beautifully for Christmas and well kept. I would love to go back to stay overnight. First and foremost was how easy it was to park. Although they offer valet services (we didn’t realize they did), we were able to park quickly and easily. Just a short walk to the front door. The hostess was warm and welcoming and we were seated quickly. From there, the service was attentive, warm and responsive. Scott is a fabulous waiter and, assisting him, Anthony was pleasant and helpful. I would go back just for these two. There is little that impresses me more than great service and I will overlook a bit to get it. Luckily, we didn’t have to overlook anything. The French Onion soup was tasty, very hot (I hate lukewarm food) and filling. We split this appetizer. Each Filet Mignon was perfectly cooked and the bordelaise sauce was to die for. My husband recommended the creamed spinach, which we would normally not have ordered, but he heard it was very good from the reviews. It did not disappoint! It was exceptional. Although the potatoes au gratin were a bit bland, a little extra salt fixed that. The crème brûlée and butterscotch pudding were just the right amount of wonderful to cap off the meal. We each had one drink and a glass of wine. Again, the drinks were very well made and generous pours. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed. Long review, but this restaurant is a real gem. Again, the service alone made it stand out. Although a higher price point than some other restaurants it was worth it to feel like you’re in your own private world. I would absolutely return.

Rodd Riesenberger Excellent! Our first time visiting Roux and I was very impressed. The atmosphere is cozy with art deco architecture and dim lighting. Our table was waiting for us on our arrival and service was great. Craft cocktails and appetizers were fantastic. We had the Whipped ricotta toast and Potted chicken & foie mousse. They were both outstanding. The chicken cutlet and steak frites au poivre were very good. I’m going to make the frenchie cocktail at home because it was awesome. Thank you all for a great evening with our friends. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back!

Daniel Schiff While planning a last-minute wedding due to health issues and only one month to spare, we were hoping to find a lovely place to hold dinner after the ceremony. CRISP made it happen on such short notice, and we are incredibly grateful for everything they provided and more. Wendi helped us create a beautiful menu that accommodated everyone’s dietary restrictions, and there isn’t a single bad thing to say about any of the food. Even our non-vegetarian guests were snacking on crispy tofu and going back for seconds of the vegan meatloaf. The braised beef and carrots dish was absolutely delicious, and something I still think about. What really set them apart was the service. About an hour before dinner, we dropped off a few table décor items, planning to set them up ourselves after the ceremony. To our surprise, the servers went ahead and decorated the tables perfectly. It was such a thoughtful gesture that really helped relieve stress on our big day. They even set up a mini bar where guests could walk up and get drinks, another lovely touch that made the evening even more special. We can’t recommend this place enough. Wendi and the entire staff were wonderful, and CRISP can definitely expect us back in the future when we take day trips back to Rochester! (I wish we had taken more photos; the food was *chefs kiss*)

Lilliana Delicious food! I got the romaine salad with beer-battered chicken and avocado, with strawberry vinaigrette. I would absolutely get it again. Next time I wouldnt get avocado, as it wasnt very good, but the rest of the salad made up for it x100. The chicken was really really good, and I wish there was more of it for the $5 price point. My table shared a couple desserts and I would definitely recommend the carrot cake. Our server, Lilliana, was very friendly. Would love to come here again!

Jon Curry This is a 5 star restaurant. Absolutely superb ingredients and immaculate orchestration of them. The short rib beef and biscuit was phenomenal. Poached egg was done perfectly with yolk that walked out of the white, rather than ran. Biscuit was brown and flaky with buttery and salty goodness. Nailed the strawberry danish real proper like with flaky and soft pastry and wholesome compote. Came back for dinner a few days later and the scallops were delicious with the perfect juicy and soft (but not raw) texture. It had a basil and herbed beats that I could eat—and I don’t eat beats. Ricotta cnocchi was so damn smooth it slid down the gullet with ease; no heavy chewing or rich resistance. Haven’t even had the pork chop I ordered yet but suspect it will be on point. Regardless, the delivery of all the above warrants a 5 star rating. Highly recommend. Mad props to the chef and cooks.

Rachael Jones Had a great light lunch with a friend on a relaxed Friday. Medjool dates with prosciutto and gorgonzola were delicious! Just the right balance of sweet and salty, and the gorgonzola didnt overpower everything. The Thai coconut steamed mussels were outstanding. Lots of bread to sop up all the delicious broth! I stole one from my friend because it smelled so good! I had a standard glass of white, but the Smoking Jacket cocktail was beautiful and delicious! Our server Michele was attentive, friendly, upbeat, without being hover-y. Excellent vibe, great service, wonderful food and creative cocktails made it a great place to chat and catch up!

Taylor Wheaton Just amazing. Spicy lettuce is my favorite dish in rochester but everything is amazing. Dont sleep on the specials. Awesome cocktails and knowledgeable bartenders. They have often quoted over a 2 hour wait time but we have been seated within an hour- take them up on sitting in the little alcove by the door and they will grab you a drink while you wait! Consistently some of the best food, cocktails, and apps in the area

George Lama Great place to hang out with the kids. Eat and game can be fun. Options to select between Switch, Xbox or PS5. As far as game availability, on XBox they had Game Pass and over 100+ games, wide variety.

Patricia Trippi I got the turkey pesto melt. Super fresh and delicious. The service was fast and friendly! Atmosphere inviting, with lots of light and relaxing music. Prices weren’t too bad either. Menu somewhat limited.

Colin Baker We visited Elevated Sol when the bar was open but the kitchen was closed for the night. Even so, we had a wonderful time chatting with Yvonne and Henry, two incredibly sweet and passionate people. They clearly love creating a warm, welcoming experience for their guests. They even let us sample some empanadas and plantains, which were absolutely delicious. My wife and I truly enjoyed ourselves. The cocktails were excellent, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere is unique, cozy, and classy. We’re looking forward to coming back.

Noc I came here and I had what I thought was the most delicious puerto rican food Ive ever had. When I go out to eat puerto rican food, im looking for that authenticity that flavor that criollo taste from the old school and thats exactly what I got. The atmosphere was great.My waitress and service was even better. Well be coming here again for sure. Me encantó la comida.

Mike Poler Phenomenal beers and outstanding Buffalo chicken pizza. Customer service was on point- got there at opening and already at least 10 people waiting to get in- within 30 minutes super busy. Gorgeous venue. I will return for sure. The Belgian tripel is in my top 5 favorite beers ever- wish they had cans of it.
