This is one of our new (to us) favorite spots to go to and to bring our friends and family to that…read morehaven't tried it yet! Our first visit was in January and we've been back 2 more times already. The main dining room is down stairs. The bar area upstairs seems very lively and inviting as well, and I've heard there's patio seating we want to try in the late spring. Service was excellent and very attentive. We loved everything we tried. You can do things traditional tapas style or you can go the appetizer and entree route. We had the calamari to start and some cocktails. For our entrees we each ordered the "feature" of the evening -- my fiance got the steak and I got the salmon. My fiance is pretty 50/50 on how good his steak experiences are in restaurants and he was very satisfied with the entree he had. My salmon cakes were SO good, everything tasted very fresh. The server also did a great job recommending a white wine to pair with my meal. We finished off with our dessert, I had the flourless chocolate torte and my fiance had (I can't recall exactly) a banana cream cheese churro I think? The desserts were amazing every time we've gone. We've had more chances to try other tapas items, the arancini is delicious as well. Also of note was that we had a good group dining experience here in February for a family members birthday. Overall if you haven't tried this spot make sure you do!

We decided to check out Tapas 177 during Restaurant Week in Rochester. The food was very tasty…read more Started with a perfect mojito, enjoyed the fried calamari salad, followed by the tuna bowl and chocolate torte. I throughly enjoyed the salad - crisp greens, perfect dressing and hot, crispy calamari. The tuna bowl followed - flavor was spot on, but the tuna itself was disappointing - tasted thawed and texture was meh. The biggest disappointment with Tapas was just the location itself being down in a dark basement - not my favorite environment. Would try again when the weather is nice and their patio is open. Server was very nice!

The foods all taste the same and is too salty. Also, the signage says you can get a small size meal…read morewith all pork or chicken. When I asked for pork chops I was told not for "pork" chops.

I got the oxtail with rice and beans and cabbage. Everything was excellent. I just wish I had asked to have more gravy added over my rice. The lady behind the counter was super nice, helped me decide what to get. It's pretty bare bones inside, just a couple tables, plastic utensils, etc. I'd be fine eating in again but I might get take out next time. Either way, go here and get some great Latino/Caribbean style food, expand your horizons. Oh before I forget. Add the pickled onion on top, it's a great counterbalance to all the rich flavors.

With a Maracuyá (Passion Fruit)juice, what a delicious combo. They have Daily Specials. I'll be back.

Dominican Family restaurant serving staple Latin food in the Rochester area…read more Their Pernil (Roasted Pork shoulder) is delicious, well seasoned. Arroz con Gandules or White Rice are very good. Maduro's sweet ripe. The place has tables arranged in front of the food area and to the left. Many families are seen eating when I visit. Staff is very friendly. Place is clean. Bathroom to the side. There is a private parking lot behind the eatery and entrance by parking lot or front street side. Definitely, will return.

I was in Ithica for a day and found this place. Almost an hour drive. It better be good, I thought…read more It was a nice drive up. I found it and parking easily. I went in and ordered the fried chicken chunks, Chicaron de pollo. Nice dish. Allot of food. I don't know if they use chicken brest for the chunks. It would have been better, but it was still good. The rice and beans were also good. Except for my drive, I would come here again, next time I'm in town. I recommend.

Went to Corn Hill Landing for the July 4th fireworks and noticed this Spanish restaurant had taken…read morethe spot where Tony D's was. The menu is extensive as you can see from the pictures. This is the second location for 809- I understand that they have a long time place on Lyell Ave. The service was great- our waiter Gabriel was very attentive. Another waitress and the hostess also stopped by to check in on us. The wife had the signature Mojito (which I tried and it was excellent) and I had a Mojito Especial with lime. They bring out their "house appetizer" which was a warm load I homemade bread and a balsamic dip. Very good! Both our dinners were excellent- mine was a Chicken Fried rice with steak and shrimp - it is a massive mound and I ate about half of it (that's lunch for tomorrow). Lots of shrimp and steak in there. And very flavorful. This is the first review and I am giving it 5 stars - I recommend checking out this different style restaurant - we will be back!

We were constantly ignored by the workers and it took forever for anything to get done, I ask for a drink... I wouldn't get it until well after my food came out when I ordered it before I ordered the food. Again..we were still waiting for a table and didn't get one, we had to eat our food at the bar, the food didn't come out until 2 hours of us waiting, they didn't even have a bathroom, the food was good but for the experience, super would never ever recommend this place. The ambiance was alright but I never got to see much because I never got a table.

809 Takeout in Greece, NY is a slice of heaven, and as a Dominican, I can say with full confidence…read morethat this place is the real deal. If you are craving authentic Dominican food, look no further. Every dish is made with love and tastes exactly like home cooking. The menu covers all the classics: pollo guisado, arroz blanco, habichuelas, pernil, moro, chicharron, and frituras, just to name a few. And if you do not see something you want, just ask! The staff goes out of their way to accommodate you and will do their best to make it happen. Speaking of staff, they are consistently friendly, warm, and welcoming every single visit. That kind of hospitality is rare and it makes the experience even better. One thing to keep in mind: the space is small with limited seating, so takeout is the way to go. But trust me, the food travels beautifully and is absolutely worth it. If you are in Greece and looking to try something new and exciting, do yourself a favor and check out 809 Takeout. You will not be disappointed!
