    I was really excited to try Eleven Bar after hearing good things, but unfortunately, it wasn't the experience I expected. AT ALL!! And the food... I wouldn't know didn't even bother to stay. As soon as we walked in, the music was extremely loud and not at all the atmosphere we anticipated. We actually had to be seated in a corner just so we could hear each other talk. It completely changed the vibe of what we thought would be a relaxing night out. The music and overall ambiance just weren't what we were expecting, and it made it difficult to enjoy our evening. Sadly, we left disappointed.

    This was honestly one of the worst restaurant experiences we've had, especially for such an important occasion like Mother's Day. We decided to try Eleven Eats & Bar because of the positive reviews and the advertised live music. We made a reservation in advance for a group of 9, including children, since we were celebrating three moms in our family and wanted a nice experience. When we arrived on time, our table apparently was not ready yet. The hostess politely asked if we would mind sitting in the last room of the restaurant. At first we agreed because we had no idea what the room looked like, but we also mentioned that one of the main reasons we chose this place was for the live music. Unfortunately, the room they seated us in felt completely disconnected from the actual restaurant. The place itself is not very big, so you could barely hear the music from far away, but it definitely did not feel like part of the restaurant atmosphere at all. It honestly looked like they had quickly pushed random tables together at the last minute. The area was dirty, messy, and disorganized, and the overall atmosphere was terrible. We ordered the kids' meals first so they could eat quickly, then ordered the adults' meals. After waiting 55 minutes, not a single plate had come out, not even simple children's meals like burgers and chicken strips. Completely unacceptable. The hostess did apologize at the beginning for seating us away from the music, and she also apologized again at the end when we informed her we would have to leave. We made it clear to her that we knew it was not her fault. However, the manager never once came to speak to us or address the situation, which says a lot about how poorly this place is managed. What makes this even worse is that the restaurant was not packed. We barely saw new customers coming in, and while other people were finishing their meals and leaving, we were still sitting there with absolutely no food. In the end, we had no choice but to leave because almost an hour had passed and nothing was coming out of the kitchen. They completely ruined what was supposed to be a special Mother's Day celebration and wasted our time. We absolutely do not recommend this place, and after this experience, we will never be returning.

    Eleven Eats is a new restaurant located in the old Da Francisco's location. They did a fabulous job with redecorating. It has a very cool chic vibe! When you walk in, the bar is immediately to the right. There are beautiful paintings in the walls and something to see everywhere.y first impression was definitely a good one. We took our seats at the bar and we're the only ones there. But we got there shortly after opening. There were two bartenders who were absolutely wonderful! They knew their menu and were able to make recommendations based on customer preferences. I ordered One Wish which was fantastic! It had a fun edible bubble on it which was a nice touch. I switched to wine after that though. We ordered Lobster Risotto and hot honey flatbread. The lobster Risotto was absolutely fantastic! I can't wait to eat my leftovers! I don't like spicy or honey so I didn't try the pizza but I was told it was perfect! The restaurant quickly filled up and they had live entertainment starting around 8. The owner came around to ensure everything was ok and also gave us samples of new dishes they are working on. We also got some complimentary drinks to try that they were working on. I'm super excited that they are starting Sunday brunch soon. I love brunch and I'm always looking for somewhere new to try. They are looking into making unique choices for brunch and I have no doubt that they will! Overall this was a wonderful experience and they had some really great options on the menu and I am looking forward to coming back and trying something else!

    Great food great service and ambiance my new spot and good drinks too. Also live music on the house

    Classic burger with wonderful, fresh, french fries. When the drink had beautiful berry sugar rim and a bubble of smoke.

    This is a great place. The vibe and decor are very chic. They have nice happy hour deals. The food is beautiful and the craft cocktails are gorgeous. The staff is very focused on you having the best possible experience. The food was fresh, well prepared, pleasing to the eye and high-quality. I would definitely recommend this place. My husband has serious allergies. They were very careful and complied with every request to make his dinner safe.

Everything tasted super fresh and the menu leans more "snacky" in the best possible way -- perfect little plates that are clearly meant to pair with wine. We ordered a few things for the table and it felt like the kind of place where you just keep ordering one more thing because everything sounds good. Nothing heavy, just really well done bites that let the wine shine. Speaking of wine, the selection is awesome. It's not the usual predictable restaurant list. There are some really interesting bottles and styles on there, which makes it fun if you actually enjoy trying different wines instead of just defaulting to the same thing every time. Service was great too. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and welcoming, and you can tell the owners are really hands-on and working hard to make the place special. That always makes a difference. And the ambiance... chef's kiss. Moody lighting, cozy, stylish but not pretentious. Just good vibes all around. It's the kind of spot you want to linger at with friends and a second bottle of wine. Already planning my next visit :)

This cocktail bar is small, low ceiling with low lighting, and simple decor. Their menu is a small book of interesting, and priced as such, cocktails. Each has a fun name. They do offer a small list of beer and wine, and obviously you can order a standard drink as well. They have a few snack offerings, but there is no full menu. A friend and I went at the right time, the late end of happy hour on a Friday, but before any crowd. We did not have a reservation, but they were quiet when we arrived and we were seated immediately. They do have a 90 minute table limit for busy nights. The service was fantastic all around. We both enjoyed our drinks and the atmosphere. This may be the best place in Rochester for a drink.

I love the little speak easy bars popping up all over the city, it is a fun way to use the space. During the day, this is a hallway that leads to a barber shop, then turns into a bar during the evening. I loved the dark aesthetic, with the black lace draped tiny lamps at each table and the slightly spooky Halloween vibe. The people working here were incredibly nice and helpful and very eager to serve drinks and make this a fun evening. We came as a pre-dinner cocktail, since I am trying to eat around the city and visit as many establishments as I can. I liked their very themed menu, and their additional Halloween drinks. They had a lot of very creative types of infused liquors to try, ranging from candy infused to meat infused alcohols. But we went for the very standard espresso martini (since we are trying them at as many places as possible) and a very tropical martini. The espresso one was good, not quite at the top of my list, but I am a very big fan of Dessert Oasis, which is right above this bar and I am told shares owners. The tropical one, called For My Fans, was excellent. I would get that one again. This seems like a fun place to go, especially with friends, for quick a drink and to try new flavors.

Menu are both physical and virtual via QR code to access their website menu. There is definitely too much to talk about here so be sure to look at my pics as I've provided a quick summary in the captions. J Baldwin's famous calamari. After receiving the dish, I think I've had it before at J Baldwin's in Clinton Twp. The calamari is not your typical calamari and is sauced with his Beurre Blanc famed on the Food Network. While it's still breaded, the Beurre Blanc is enough to soften it completely while adding an explosion of flavor. The Beurre Blanc is made with olive oil, shallots, peppercorns, bay leaves, lemon juice, wine, and cream. Personally I think this dish was way too sauce heavy. There wasn't a single crispy bite. While flavorful, I was looking forward to a light and crispy texture, but didn't get it. I think this could have been accomplished with going lighter in the sauce, maybe just drizzling it on, and providing a serving of it on the side. 3,5 stars. Truffle Sausage Pizza. Tradition hand tossed dough that's not too thick and not too thin. Italian sausage, truffle oil, parsley, Gouda, Mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses. The Italian sausage was not what I expected. Rather than slices or tiny meatballs, it was ground up. I kinda liked it to tell you the truth, but it wasn't evenly applied. It was more densely populated in the center, which left the perimeter sparse with toppings. While the truffle oil sounded good, it didn't work for me. Here's the thing you need to know about truffle oil, it's not made from truffles (mushrooms)! That's right, truffle oil is typically made from extract, which is why the flavor is so intense and a little goes a long way. Local Carbonara Bucatini. Made the traditional way with cuts of pork cheek (guanciale). The bucatini pasta was nicely done and not overcooked. The guanciale was also nice and crispy as it should be. It was lighter on the cheese than I would have liked and none was served on the side, but it was Pecorino Romano and it was shaved from a block. Did I ask for more on the side, of course I did! The black pepper wasn't also as prominent as it should have been, but the server did have some fresh ground at the ready when it was served. 4 stars. Overall, I would have to say that I'm still a fan of J. Baldwin's Testa Barra. The food is prepared fresh with quality ingredients, and the dishes are inspirationally classic, and sometimes with innovating or modern twist. I've consistently never been disappointed with every visit. If You would like to experience more, come dine-with-me.yelp.com I'd love to have your company... Bon Appétit!
