We ordered our wings Garlic Romano and they brought up Sriracha Asiago garlic wings........HOT! The waitress was apologizing and ordered the right wings. The wings were the best I had. I was a bit disappointed in the rest as the onion petals were burnt and in the bottom of the basket was well done deep fried crumbles. The service was very slow and the waitress forgot 2 of our orders that we placed so it took a long time and we couldn't eat together. I ordered a burger medium and it was well done. I asked for mustard and ketchup and I ate half of my burger before she brought it and had to remind her again. They definitely need more servers as you can see she was the only one serving many tables and hard to keep up.

I'm actually obsessed with BoBo's, and I 100% mean that. BoBo's is the truth. If you're looking for…read morethe best soul food in Rochester (and beyond?) look no further. Mr. BoBo makes all of the food in-house and it's made fresh, he is the nicest guy you'll ever meet too. Keep in mind that this is not a sit-down place, in fact there are no tables, so you'll need to treat as take-out only. His entrees cost like $10-$14, but portions are massive. You'll have leftovers for a while. Each dish comes with a meat (chicken wings or ribs), and 2 sides (yams, mac and cheese, collard greens), cornbread, and rice. You can add shrimp for like $3 more. The flavor you guys, the flavor. I have never liked collard greens until I had this man's collard greens, the flavor from the ham-hock is indescribable. The mac and cheese is creamy and seasoned well, the yams are as sweet as candy. The complimentary pieces, the cornbread and the rice are just as good. The rice tastes like chicken and the cornbread is cake, literal sweet, delicious cake. Moving on to the meats, both ribs and chicken wings fall off the bone and BoBo's house-made sauce is A MUST. Every time I eat it, my taste-buds are assaulted by the tenderness of the meat, the flavor and the sauce. Plan on not moving for a while after eating BoBo's because you will be full and in a good way.

My first impression was that this place was fancy, and had really great ambience. Beautiful decorations, dim lighting, gigantic in terms of restaurant size. We were seated right away, even though it seemed to be busy still. There were only two of us, so we were seated at a small table - though we ended up asking for a booth so that we had more space. The waitress agreed to speak to a busser about this, but seemed a little disgruntled that we asked. They did move us shortly after. The booth was better for space, but it was near the kitchen, and a giant window facing the parking lot, so noise and headlights were definitely a buzzkill for the ambience. The menu was ridiculous - the biggest I think I have ever seen. There are four pages for cocktails, another four pages for appetizers, two for cheesecake. Over twenty in total. My head was already spinning. I ended up asking a lot of questions because, despite the size of the menu, the portion sizes and prices weren't always clear. (How many tacos? How many mozzarella sticks? What do you mean, the cheesecake is between $10.50 and $12.50? How do you know which is which when it's not labeled?) When I started asking questions, we were also told that they were out of things. A LONG LIST OF THINGS. The waitress stated that this was due to it being Sunday, as if that explained everything. (Told you that information would come in handy later on!) Anyway, we ended up deciding on a fried pickle appetizer, a flatbread pizza to split, and a slice of cheesecake to try. The pickles were really good, so was the spicy ranch they gave us to dip them in, and they came quickly. The pizza took.. a while. Quite a while. So long that we had started wondering if they even put the order in. It did eventually come, and it was okay. While we were waiting, our waitress had mentioned complimentary bread, but never brought it out. That didn't arrive until AFTER dessert and about three reminders. And the cheesecake itself was delicious, though the one that we ordered (Adam's) seemed like it was not enough cheesecake and entirely too much "other". I left having stories to tell, for sure. And it reminded me of what Chef Ramsay used to say about giant menus. Would I try it again? Probably. But next time, I would go at a different time, on a different day, with completely different expectations. Or maybe I would try a different location all together. For now, it warrants three stars.

I used to love this place, but I got food the other day from here and it was horrible. The steak in the steak sub was almost dog food. It had zero taste to it, and there were hard, almost like bone or rocks in it. You know when you get really cheap beef and you bite into a piece of bone? That's what this was. The staff are the rudest staff out there. The young bald guy obviously hates his job because he gets annoyed when you order anything at all. I will never go back. read more

Their differentiator is the sauce: sweet and tangy, but not overwhelming as it quietly hides beneath a proportionate amount of cheese and pepperoni (obviously the tastiest topping). The crust is not too doughy like some places nor so thin that you lack a "handle" to grip all of the flavor. Don't skip the wings here, but make sure you know what flavors are offered before going for the plain-Jane mild or medium. They have some unique flavor combos that will leave you craving a return visit. If you can't justify a trip out to Caledonia (or Avon, but I prefer this location) just for pizza, consider checking out the Genesee Country Village down the road first to work up your appetite.
