It seems like there's only one person making the smoothies while others are in the back prepping produce. Last time I came in, there were five people ahead of me, one person doing everything, and I ended up leaving. Today was better someone rang me up, and there were only a couple people ahead of me, so it moved faster this was a plus! Honestly, it feels a little hit or miss these days. I totally understand food costs, rent, staffing, all of that can be tough to balance. Just know that while the smoothies are great, you might be in for a bit of a wait. That's all I've got! Street parking or a small shared lot

Smoothies were great! Very friendly staff. It's also very clean and all ingredients are fresh.read more

I feel like they could do a lot if they were open to special events. There's room for a dance party or a band for sure. I also feel like table service would make this place a hopping hot spot, but if ou know, how get probably like doing things the way they are doing them! Worth checking out!!

I grew up in Rochester but have since moved away, and I was sad I didn't find this place sooner -…read moreor you know, when I actually lived and worked in Rochester. On a recent visit to Rochester, one of my friends and I met up at this cool location for a coffee and to catch up. There are options galore for drinks and they're so good. I loved my marshmallow latte. They have options for board games, events they host, and a small corner for small/local artists to share and sell their products. It was so interesting to explore and look around while I caught up with an old friend. Next time I'm in Rochester, I'm definitely coming back.

Hubby went full comfort mode with the chicken finger plate--he was silent for most of the meal, which is how I know it was good. I got the Park's Burger with fries and honestly? That burger deserves its own fan club. Juicy, cheesy, then add an onion ring... oh my gosh, it's perfect. And then we shared a chocolate/vanilla shake, we made room for that! Even when they're slammed with orders, the staff is still smiling and welcoming. It's the kind of place where you can show up in sweats and still feel like you're exactly where you're supposed to be. Vasko's, you're the reason my jeans are tight and my heart is full. Never change.

Halal N Out 655 Monroe Ave…read moreRochester, NY We ordered two of the Lamb-N-Chicken Mix Platter ($10.99) and jalapeño poppers everything was both delicious. The meat was tender, well-seasoned, and full of flavor. Everything was fresh and generously portioned. Each platter came with rice, and a fresh salad ~ a great value for the price. This location is a little bit bigger than the one in E. Henrietta location , which has two tables. The Monroe Ave location, has six tables. So you can comfortably eat in or takeout. Much like the location on E. Henrietta Rd., the menu has broad range too ~ from classic chicken and lamb platters to jerk chicken, kofta kabob, seafood options like shrimp and fish platters, plus vegetarian favorites like falafel and hummus-N-pita. Whether you're craving bold Caribbean spice, NYC-style halal, or something meat-free, they've got you covered. Fresh food. Big flavor. Excellent service. We'll definitely be back. Kevin

I met a friend for lunch at Halal Spot on Monroe Ave…read more From the outside it doesn't look like much, but inside it's surprisingly spacious, bright, and features a cool mural on the wall. The menu is fairly large, with plenty of sandwiches and platters. Service was efficient and friendly, and everything is made fresh. I ordered the chicken platter and liked that I could customize my salad. The chicken was well seasoned, though I do wish the rice had been hotter. (Oddly enough this seems to be a thing around here?) The garlic sauce on the chicken was tasty. We also shared mozzarella sticks, which were tasty, though it was odd that the only dipping option was Italian dressing. My friend ordered a plain gyro, which was fresh and flavorful. There's both dine in and takeout. A few people sat down to eat while we were there, but I get the sense it's more of a takeout spot. They're also open late, which is a plus. Parking is either street or a small shared lot.
