Despite that I keep thinking about what I want to try next time I go. The atmosphere, scale and feel of the dining room is fantastic. It sort of feels like a Rochester version of Cheers. I love that they had all the doors open and the beautiful summer evening climate was enjoyable whether you sat inside or outside. This meant dealing with a few gnats or flies at our indoor table. I started with a Caesar side salad which was very good. The entrees we had were Salmon and Chicken Riggies. The Chicken RIggies were great. Not spicy at all but made-to-order so it could be made spicy. The pasta was perfectly tender but firm, the diced chicken was flavorful and easy to eat. It was THE most successful Chicken Riggie dish I've tried to date anywhere and I took the leftovers home to enjoy for lunch the next day, a rarity for me. The salmon was not a hit. It seemed pretty fishy especially in the areas that were thinner and had become chewier from the grill drying it out. What they call roasted corn is really 'chili powder roasted corn'. The chili powder flavor was quite pronounced and not very well integrated into the dish. It tasted like very ordinary corn with very ordinary chili powder sprinkled on it. I'm sure that isn't how the dish is made but that's what it tasted like. The Cheesy Eddie's carrot cake was absolutely perfect and tasted like it was just made. It's hard to defend the pricing. Our 2 entrees, 1 side salad, 1 soft drink and 2 small glasses of wine and 1 piece of carrot cake ended up being 145 dollars after tax and tip. If the wine pour had been a nice 9 ounce pour I would have had a single glass but I had 2 because they were small. Even with 1 wine this was going to be WELL over 100 dollars for 2 people even before tip. In any head-to-head comparison with something like The Distillery or Genesee Brew House, this pricing is probably out of line. If we go back, it will be with great appreciation for the setting and modest expectations for the food.

It's a stout. This was full of body and filling too. It's about $8 for food items. We got the House Salad. Pretty basic. The food is not why people come here.

Anyway.... you know I overshare. Furthermore, I've tried a few of the restaurants up here but I had a GREAT experience at the Great American Diner and was inspired to leave a review!! My lovely boyfriend suggested we try this place out. He said it used to be Wimpy's and it was new to him as well. Turns out that was a great decision. Walking in, all of the staff had a great attitude- everyone was in a good mood. We were seated quickly in one of the cozy booths, despite it being pretty busy. This place reminds me of the diners I used to enjoy back home. Assorted jams on the table and condiments for our use, very convenient! For seating, there is also a bar and regular tables. There are TVs that were playing game shows. The menu is quite expansive, you can get all sorts of breakfast items (omlettes, pancakes, waffles, french toast, wraps/sandwiches, platters) as well as plenty of lunch options (sandwiches, burgers, wraps, plates like roast turkey, country fried steak, garbage plates). There are even gluten-free and vegan options. I saw gluten free bread and vegan / gluten free pancakes. I decided on something simple.. a chicken salad sandwich on a hard roll with lettuce and onion. I got tater tots and mac salad with it. The bread was soft, topped with a hearty portion of the chicken salad. My tots were so crispy and delicious, and the mac salad was delightful!! Not many places get the mac salad right but I really enjoyed it! My boo got a breakfast garbage plates.. mind blown lolz!! It had home fried, sausage links, over easy eggs, cheese, and of course topped with meat sauce. You can decide if you want sausage or bacon, how you want your eggs cooked, and what kind of toast you want (bagel, biscuit, english muffin, wheat or white toast). He pretty much cleared his plate. He really liked it. I definitely want to come back here and try their other items, maybe some of their breakfast options this time. Oh, and their milkshakes... gahhh I really wanted one but I had to go into work and was worried I would have a tummy ache lol. It would have to be a day I'm willing to risk it (yes I'm lactose intolerant but sometimes it's worth it). Anyway... we will be back !!

What is little gem! Tucked away in a small Plaza on Dewey Avenue, it's been a bar at least three…read moretimes before. But now it's not just any bar. It's a little Neighborhood Place you can come alone and feel welcome and safe. It's a place where if you come to eat good bar food, you're in the right place. It's a place that if you come to meet new people and enjoy st that kind of a bar. It also has a patio, and if you are or know native Rochesterians, we LOVE dining al fresco, since we only get like 10 days of sun a year (okay, actually it's 165 , but we're not exactly overrun with sun). The first time here, I install myself on a bar stool and immediately greeted by and waited on by Todd (one of the owners). I asked for an Ice Pic, which no bartender in Rochester has ever even heard of. So I figured it must be a Pittsburgh thing. He made it, and immediately offered to make me something else if I didn't like it. It was a little heavy on the lemon (pucker worthy). He happily subbed a White Claw. They have black cherry and mango. I had one of each, and preferred the mango. It's served in a can, so I asked for a glass of ice. Very refreshing. Anyone that knows me, knows I'm a wing girl through and through. I ordered wings, half medium buff and half garlic parm. Both were very good and mostly drums. Todd was attentive, fun and friendly. Very chill dude. The customers, obviously locals, were very friendly. The second time I was here, Ashley, the bartender, suggested a Deep Eddy. Refreshingly alcoholic. I had fried mushrooms. They come in a little metal bucket; at least 10 to 12 tender, plump, perfectly fried mushrooms. There was a tiny bit of water inside, which is to be expected and it didn't at all ruin the mushrooms. They're served with blue cheese. Honestly, they were so good, they didn't need dressing. I have two suggestions. One, they provide some sort of shade for the patio. The tables and chairs, which are metal, are in the sun (a couple tables have umbrellas). I think a big canopy over the patio would do the trick. Second, use a bit more light. It's a but dark. I fiddled with all the settings on my camera, and still could not get decent interior shots. I think it's much better with the blinds open, but at night...hmmm. To be fair, I've never been here past 7 p.m. I know...atmosphere. And I'm a total cornball when it comes to (love and) romance. But this isn't designed for that. It's a neighborhood bar with good food, friendly folk and a chill, fun vibe. And you can't improve that.

My…read moremom and dad brought me here growing up, and every time I come back to Rochester from California to visit my mom, it's one of the first restaurants on my list. When I heard Forest Hill had changed ownership and was now simply called The Hill, I'll admit I was worried. So many great restaurants lose what made them special after a change like that. I'm happy to say those worries were completely unfounded. The Hill is still everything I've loved for decades. In fact, I can confidently say they still have the best Chicken French in Rochester. This week I've made it my mission to revisit some of Rochester's well-known Chicken French spots while I'm in town. I've eaten at Brook House, Mr. Dominic's, and Pino's Deli, and while they were all good, nothing came close to The Hill. The Chicken French here is simply outstanding--perfectly cooked, consistently delicious, and exactly the flavor I've been coming back for all these years. One thing I've learned after 25 years of traveling for business and eating in restaurants all over the country is to appreciate the art of timing a meal. It's much harder than most people realize. Getting appetizers, entrées, and drinks to the table at just the right pace without making guests feel rushed or forgotten is the mark of a truly professional restaurant. The Hill has this mastered. Every course arrived at exactly the right time, the pacing was flawless, and the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely top-notch. It's wonderful to see the new owners preserving what has made this restaurant a Rochester favorite for generations. Thank you for keeping this tradition alive. I'll continue making The Hill a must-visit every time I'm back home.
