We got the Brussels sprouts and arancini for appetizers. Both were so so. I got the 180 mocktail, which was good. The shrimp naan pizza was pretty basic but good. Our waiter seemed very nice. Based on his recommendation, we tried the banana cheesecake dessert which was terrible! Honestly, there's not much to talk about the food. But, if you want a cool space to hang out, this is your spot! They also outsource dishes from the neighboring Italian restaurant, Sagra. I probably won't be back.

So it's like a diner. Not in a bad sense…read more The crowd is mostly older people but I was surprised by how many middle aged single travelers like myself there were. Place has a little bit of the tacky love nest romance vibe. There's only one cup of chocolate mousse left that I was eyeing up before I even started dinner and luckily my server thought to ask if I wanted to put aside for me! I did. Ugh. I don't eat that crap anymore! So I got an Italian wedding kinda soup. Was pretty good. They give you Some bread with it. That was average. I hit the beet salad with chicken. That was pretty weak. Chicken was over cooked. Just not a very appealing salad. The chocolate mousse cup was good. I think that's probably where they shine. Desert. You come in and they ask you dinner or dessert. They push the dessert hard at this place. So anyway, before all this, I was sitting in my bed in the hotel, thinking I was just gonna go to sleep but then I saw this place and wanted to try something new. If I could do it all over again I'd eat my complementary goldfish and stay under the covers.

We were fortunate to get one of those. It was decorated very tastefully for Christmas. Dinner was good, portion size for price was ok. My vegetable side was smaller than a baby portion, 4 string beans, one carrot piece. I had sesame salmon, and it wasn't anything special. Glaze on side tasted like from a bottle off supermarket shelf. Husband had the chicken french/lemon something. He enjoyed it. Just nothing impressed with the meals. Desserts however, are unbelievably delicious and generously portioned! Had a tough time making decision. This place, known for its desserts has a full bakery display when you walk in. We shared a slice of cake, we loved it. I would definitely come back for dessert. Most likely takeout, if ever in area again. I don't plan to ever return to Rochester. It was one time situational visit. Service was courteous & friendly.

Back in October, while home visiting my family and friends, some friends of mine and myself went to…read morea haunted hayride in Williamson. Before we went there we went to dinner and stopped into Mama Lors Nice little restaurant. Kind of a random location too, but for some reason I liked where it was. Liked the outside of it. Reminded me of like restaurants in old ass buildings down in Staten Island. Spent a lot of time down in the city as a kid (family there) and lots of time on Staten Island. We'd always go to Italian restaurants there (even tho we are all Irish lol). This place kind of reminded me of those restaurants. I know, random thoughts to share, but that's immediately what I thought when I pulled up. It's NOT an Italian restaurant tho. It's American food. Burgers, salads, chicken dinners etc. Food was actually really good. Not too crazy overpriced like majority of restaurants these days...like ones that charge $15 for a plain waffle or something and the waffle is next level basic af. At least I'm not bitter lol But yeah, food was very good. The garlic bread...delicious. I have yet to find garlic bread tho that I don't like. Waitress was suuuuuper nice. Every employee we encountered was very nice. Place is big. Plenty of seating and you're not right on top of each other either. There is outdoor seating as well...pretty sure it was closed when we were there? Could be wrong. However, knowing what the weather right now is like back there...yeah, safe to say outdoor seating closed for the season lol. Restaurant is very clean. Nice floors lol. Random again, but I noticed that the second I walked in. I had neverrrr heard of this place until my friend suggested it. She lives in Chile so she's more familiar with the Rochester area. And Williamson, honestly, I forgot that city/town even existed lol. I didn't do any exploring there tho. The restaurant which is actually in Webster and then we headed to the hayride in Williamson...like 10 mins away. Nice place. I'd 100% go again. I'd also for sure recommend it to anyone..especially if they're looking for a nice restaurant that's not insanely expensive and has a really nice atmosphere AND is in a historic building. Ok so maybe in NY, it's not classified as a "historic building" bc most places in NY are historic. I live in Boise, Idaho tho. We have historic buildings here, but NOTHING like NY has. So when I go to an old building like this....IIIIIII classify it as a historic building haha. Thanks for reading, MamaYelperLor's!!!! Check it out! Support a local business! You'll enjoy it. If you don't...you know where to find me....right here on Yelp haha. Cheers!

I had some delicious tapas during the event, but then wanted an actual meal afterwards. I sat at the bar and my bartender was hilarious and patient helping me figure out which drink to order. I ended up having the Healthy Kick which was absolutely delicious and refreshing. I love ginger and it was full of that spicy flavor that I like. For my meal, I had the almond crusted scallops, the halibut and the olive oil cake. If my stomach allowed me, I would've had the entire three course over again. Lots of excellent flavor with everything balancing each other as well as as a beautiful presentation. I will absolutely put this back in my rotation!

I normally don't drink sugary drinks like this. Sad they didn't have wine or couldn't just get a vodka soda for happy hour price. My man had a medelo. We ordered charred edemame and spicy tuna roll. Both were really good. Most spicy tuna they don't add a lot of spice. This one hit just right and the rolls were cut perfect size. Charred edemame was excellent texture.

Fortunately, that wasn't the case here! We stopped in to meet some relatives and arrived a little early. Within a few minutes, we had met the owner, her son (the manager), the head bartender, and several members of the wait staff. Everyone was warm, friendly, and welcoming--always a great way to start a visit. The tavern has a great atmosphere and an interesting, eclectic décor. There's a full bar and an outdoor deck, which unfortunately faces Culver. Still, you can't win them all! The service was excellent, and our drinks arrived promptly. And then there was the food. Our party ordered three Beef on Wecks and one Irish Burger, and everything was excellent. The Beef on Weck was stacked high with delicious, tender beef--considerably more than we've experienced at some other locations. Nobody was going home hungry! We're from out of the area but usually visit once or twice a year. This place has definitely earned a spot on our list for future visits to Rochester.

The fries were cooked to perfection and everything was served nice and hot. My wife ordered a club and it had a lot of meat in it but also was dry. The lettuce was chopped, that is a little different for a club but hard to keep on it. The tomatoes were really small and sliced and cut so also hard to keep on the sandwich. The fries were really good.
