Brad (our waiter) was awesome! He was so knowledgeable about allergies. If he didn't know the answer, he made sure to double check with the kitchen. This was my first time visiting. My friend and I ordered mocktails which we both enjoyed. We then ordered gochu belly buns and the braised beef French onion soup. They were able to accommodate my gluten allergy and make the soup gluten free! It was delicious. For our entrees, I ordered the sweet deal salad and my friend ordered the green curry stir fry. Mine wasn't anything crazy, tasted as I expected but it was still good. My friend, on the other hand, did not love her dish. She is a big curry person and said the sauce lacked flavor (which I tried and agreed with). The tofu was nice and crispy, dry though. There wasn't enough sauce in the dish. The mushrooms were the most flavorful. read more

This was the first time we had a bad experience at Nosh. Our server was wonderful, which is why this is a 3 instead of a 2 (really felt like a 2.5). I had the La Higuera cocktail which I really enjoyed and my fiancee had the Filthy Hor. She didn't love hers, but it was basically a boozy horchata so I did like it. We decided on two appetizers - the Not Your Pastor's Wings and The Mulita Meltdown. The wings had good flavor and texture. The Mulita Meltdown was good, but not good birria. It didn't feel like real birria, but it was tasty. However, I found a hair in one of the quesadilla pieces so I stopped eating that. We told our server and she offered to bring us something else, but we didn't mind knowing that we still had our entree coming. Our entree was the Okie Dokie Gnocchi and we were definitely looking forward to it. We've loved every pasta dish that they've had over the years (but the braised beef was the best, would love for that to make a comeback) and expected this would not be an exception. However, the texture was off with too many breadcrumbs on top that didn't stay crisp while we were eating. The flavor was pretty good, but it was hard to get past the texture. Then it got worse: Another hair. And it was unquestionably not one of ours either time. We were pretty disappointed. Our server was again apologetic and again offered to bring something else, but I feel it's worth noting that she didn't seem surprised either time. We declined to have her bring another dish, as we had plans elsewhere, and she comped the gnocchi instead. We love Nosh so ultimately we'll likely return in the future, but there are so many good restaurants to try that it will certainly be a while. read more

I came across Nosh while browsing Yelp, and it immediately caught my attention. I really like the idea of combining New American, Asian Fusion, and Mexican flavors on one menu it makes the restaurant feel a little different. The pork belly, Korean Sit Down, and Pollo Loco all look fantastic in the photos, and the space has a modern, lively vibe. It's definitely a place I'd like to check out the next time I'm in Rochester. read more

Bar and interior is so cute. Food drinks and service were all great. We were able to get in for dinner on a Wednesday evening at peak dinner time with no reservation. Loved the Ahi Noshos and Braised The Soup. read more

The ambiance was nice, a very modern atmosphere. The food was good but for the price...not worth it. The steak wasn't that tender and it didn't taste the best either. There was way too many soggy vegetables directly under the steak....what's the point of that? Service was good. Our friends got the Korean bbq plate and they liked that a lot. read more

Nosh was good, but didn't exceed expectations. I was 10 min early and I had to wait to be seated until my friend arrived. Service was a bit slow, maybe because it was a Friday night. We ordered calamari for appetizer. I ordered a milk & honey salad with breaded chicken. I was a bit surprised because other than the generous chicken portion (for additional $10), there was very little salad for $18. But, it tasted good! For dessert, we ordered chocolate mousse cake, it tasted good but the texture was that of a mousse cake. I tried to gauge the vibe of the restaurant, but couldn't label it, it was blend of industrial and high end diner. Anyway, it was a good experience. I do recommend this spot! read more

TLDR: My experience was average but there are better restaurants in Roc for this price. I won't be back. The bartenders were friendly. However I ordered a manhattan and they served it on the rocks instead of up. Normally manhattans are served up. They didn't ask, so I guess I should have said I wanted it up. Not that big of a deal. I ordered Ahi Noshos, which are nachos with tuna. They were drenched in a sauce that overpowered the whole dish. I could barely appreciate the tuna. And as a starter dish, was enormous. I also ordered the steak and noodle. The steak was high quality but cut into very thin pieces and cooked medium well/well done. I wasn't asked how I wanted the steak cooked. The rice noodles were cooked properly and the dish as a whole wasn't bad. The dish was also huge. But nothing special. The serving sizes are too big for higher quality food and I wasn't impressed overall, especially for the price and how this restaurant presents itself. I expected more for the price. I also prefer smaller servings so I can try different dishes without getting full. I was full after the starter. The ambience is probably the best thing they have going for them. Redd is my favorite ROC restaurant, followed by Velvet Belly. If I am going to spend I am going to one of these places. Rochester ain't that great at the end of the day, unfortunately. :/ Still love this city. read more

Came for a small group dinner. I cannot recommend the ahi noshos enough. They were so delicious and fresh tasting. I also ordered the gnocchi which was insanely rich to the point where I had to take leftovers. The flavor was excellent, injust wish the mushrooms were not fried. I ordered sage advice as my drink which was refreshing. The dining room itself is a bit crowded which I only noticed while walking through, it doesn't feel that way while seated at the table. read more

We went back for a visit to Nosh and hadn't been in a while. The original owners and executive chef are gone, and a new person has taken over (I think she's owned a few other places). The service is still friendly and professional, but I found the food lacking a certain umami. The one standout appetizer, the Tuna Nochos, used to be a must order, but this time it was just okay. The presentation was nice, but it felt like something was missing and I couldn't it my finger on it. The entrees sounded good on paper and were well presented, yet the flavors just didn't hit the mark. I used to come here for happy hour and always knew I'd get a tasty meal. Ever since the changes, though, the food just feels "meh." Maybe I need to give it another go... That's all I got. 3.5 outta 5 read more

One of my FAVORITE salmon dishes I have had at a restaurant! This is the perfect date night or girls night spot! We were seated right away (we did have a reservation) and our server was immediately over to us for drinks and food orders. She super attentive, kind and welcoming. I have been to Nosh previously and had an okay experience but this made me want to come back again. We will definitely be back. read more

I was very excited to try this restaurant after numerous recommendations, and overall I did enjoy my experience. The service was good, but the waitress seemed busy so it was occasionally hard to ask for things. I was also there with someone with a nut allergy, and she had ordered the milk and honey salad with no nuts and mentioned the allergy, and received a salad with nuts :(. The food was decent, and I really enjoyed the unique selection, but a general opinion amongst the people I had been with was that it was a bit overly salted. We had no complaints on appetizers we got, which were the onion soup and the birria taco things. The green noodles were fun, but I wasn't blown away, and the okie dokie gnocchi was said to be ok, but again salty. Also, the dessert options were not great, but the dough nibs were very tasty. Slightly perhaps overhyped, but still good. read more

The bar filled up super quick on the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving . I like the fact that the bar offers half portions of saratoga sparkling, not very common. The bartender greeted us quickly with several menus including dinner coctails and nightly specials. I was offered tastings of two dry reds before deciding. We noticed every bar guest had an order of the ahi tuna nachos. So we fell in line. A half portion is enough to share with crispy airy chips to scoop all of the poke avacado and delicious toppings. Next was a small plate warmed goat cheese honey drizzle with a pickled frise of peppers and endive. The combination of cheese sweet and spice worked. And when I say spice the peppers really delivered heat. The bar seating offers views of a lovely chandelier, sprial stair case, and well presented spirit shelving. Not to mention the staff constantly curating coctails and the sound of ice in a cold shaker. Despite the building crowd the acoustics are balanced when talking with friends. The interior has towering ceilings and a large dining area but there is a warmth once you settle in for the dining experience. Logistics, price extremely reasonable, location prime, accessibility with ease. We street parked with no issue. After several visits I can rely on Nosh being consistent and hospitable. read more

Food was outstanding and has been each time we've been. The Ahi noshos are terrific and our dinners excellent: scallops on cheddar polenta; Salmon, Kimchi, sweet potato pancake, and fried rice (too salty) otherwise excellent especially the Kimchi influence; surf and turf (bacon wrapped meat loaf on harissa lobster mashed potatoes and the tomahawk all hit the mark. Yet the highlight of the evening our server Brad - he was outstanding - casual, knowledgeable, and attentive. Never once asked "how are we" or called anyone hun, both irritating. The only caution is the noise - high ceilings and crowds combine for a lot of screaming diners and not much to buffer the din. Intimate, no but good food and excellent service at least last night. read more

We came here for happy hour on a Thursday which is 4-6 Tues-Thurs. Not a lot of people there but the kitchen doesn't open until 5. I don't really like that the wine selection and drink selection is bartender choice for happy hour. Makes it harder to make a decision and it takes up more of the bartender time. When you go to a place that has a lot of craft cocktails it slows the service down enough already. Either way I ended up getting the Paloma and my hubby had a modelo. My drink was really good. The Bills game was later that night so we didn't want to order a lot of food so we only got the wings. They were so freaking good and the ranch dressing.....THE RANCH DRESSING!!!! I want to go back and buy some that's how good it is. I'd only eaten here once before a couple years ago but was happy to see it was same bartender. Can't really miss the curly hair. I'll be back next week for happy hour for sure and want to get the ahi noshos and pizza. We also want to go back for dinner while we are still in town. The decor is amazing and the spiral staircase reminds us of one of our favorite houses in San Pedro Belize. Bathrooms were clean although the paper towel dispenser is broken in ladies room. So happy they have men's room and women's room not gender neutral. That may sound weird to some people but I don't like toilet seats being left up etc or thinking about what a guy touches to use the restroom and not wash their hands after. There's plenty of parking out front and parking lot on the side. Good job Nosh. Excited to come back! read more

A fun restaurant with a spacious wide open decor. Our server Kim was attentive and pleasant. We enjoyed the food variety. Most of the entrees have multi-layers of protein, veg and garnish. I really enjoyed the Pollo Loco, our servers favorite. Other items worth coming back for were the Steak & Noodle, Milk & Honey and Shell Shock. The O.G. of Green River was nice and refreshing. The lobster pizza fell a little short. Thicker crust than we prefer and the lobster taste was lost. We had a great time and the noise level is good for friendly conversation without have to yell at each other. Hope you too will enjoy the Nosh! read more

I like this place--best dirty martini with Hendrick's I've had in years, plus the Korean sit down was a treat for two.

Service was stellar! Table was *very* wobbly but staff took time to help balance it; restaurant was hopping on a Friday night but it's so loud in there our party had to literally shout to one another :/ Food was so disappointing in the flavor department. I was excited about the vegetarian options and got the curry, but wow the flavor was bland. Had to ask for salt & pepper. My French 75 was not balanced either - so tart I kept adding ice. Hubby loved his espresso martini though. No one else cared for their food much. Wouldn't return unfortunately b.c. of the noise and cost of bland food. read more

Nosh absolutely delivered on every level. The food was nothing short of phenomenal-- we ordered the Korean Sit Down and the Pollo Loco. Both dishes were packed with flavor and beautifully presented. The service was friendly, making the whole experience even better. And the ambience was on point--stylish, warm, and the perfect vibe for dinner with friends. I want to revisit Rochester just to eat here! read more

The ambience was great. The restaurant was filled with people. There was music in the background and conversations. Our server was very friendly and helpful. I ordered a mocktail piña colada. For an appetizer, I ordered the Goony Sticks, and for the entree I ordered the Huli Chop. The Goony stick was crispy and delicious filled with cream cheese, crab and mozzarella. The Huli Chop was delicious. I received a good size pork chop. The sauce on the pork chop was sweet and tangy. The mac salad and fried rice were delicious. I enjoyed my meal. read more

Review for the back room. We've been here a few times, never knew they had a back room, but that's where we got stashed. "Apartment white" walls and bare concrete floors, feels very institutional. They put in some plants and funky light fixtures, overall the vibe is "tarted up warehouse." The service was as great as ever, everyone here is always so friendly and helpful. And the food was good, would have been great if we'd stuck with old favorites. The special was pretty mid the night we went. The cocktails were phenomenal as usual. But this is a pricey place, at least for Roc, and part of what you're paying for is the nice ambiance. I mean it's a date night spot, we go because they cultivated a romantic atmosphere. It's just not worth the money if we're going to be sequestered in a room that feels more like a garage. I guess we'd go again if we could be sure to get a table in the nice part, but then again, it doesn't seem right to charge the same prices for folks in the nice room and the folks in the storeroom. There are other nice places in town, I'm guessing it will be a while before we come back. edit: Browsing other reviews, I learned this converted storage room is referred to as the "garden room." Oof. Who do you think you're kidding with that name? read more

Took our good friends from LA visiting here and NOSH didn't disappoint. As a group we shared some various plates such as the Korean sampler with steam buns, ahi tuna nachos, and a few flat bread pizzas - the mushroom was my favorite. Nosh has a unique selection of cocktails everyone seemed to enjoy. Our server was very attentive and friendly. Our group raved about the food saying how good everything was! If your looking for a restaurant to take friends out that are visiting from out of town - make your reservation at least a few weeks in advance online for NOSH! Everything was top notch from the service, ambiance, to the food, and cocktails. read more

Nosh is still my favorite Rochester restaurant! They have a new owner and chef but many of the classic dishes (like the Ahi Noshos) are still on the menu. Tonight I had the Holy Cannelloni pasta with pork and it was amazing. Very rich flavor but not too heavy. I also tried the Hot Buns (pork belly bao with bulgogi sauce and Asian slaw) and the pork belly was perfect. Crispy on the outside, melt in your mouth goodness on the inside, and the slaw makes a nice textural difference to the soft bao bun. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the service was outstanding. read more

Amazing spot and delicious food! The ambiance was great and the atmosphere was upbeat.

There are not enough good things to say. I travel regularly and tend to eat at higher end restaurants. Nosh has put something really special together. Between their INCREDIBLE food and drinks, I tried three of each and all were insane, and the great service this was one of the better restaurant experiences I've had. I highly recommend coming in and trying their food. RJ and the whole team should be proud of what they're doing. Beyond 5 stars for su read more

Beeshaun was a great server and did everything that we needed. I ordered the lobster empanadas and husband ordered the prime pizza. The food took a bit, but Beeshaun kept checking on us. The food was absolutely delicious. I would've given the restaurant a five star, but it was so noisy. We elected to stay, but husband said that if we lived here, he probably would not come back because of the noise. As some of the groups left, it was less noisy. I love the decor, our server was wonderful. The food was wonderful... I was surprised it was so packed for Wednesday night. It is definitely a hopping place and it looks like everybody's having a great time. Just be aware of the noise because I know I have several friends that could not have stayed there. read more

I wanted to come here for a very long time. A friend and I decided to come after the Jerry Seinfeld show, and they were really busy. It was probably 9pm-ish. There was plenty of parking, which is a plus, but the dining room was full, there was a line, and the hostess seemed very flustered, and kind of irritated that so many people were there. It turns out there's a back room, and that's where we were seated. This room was sort of odd, but it actually worked out well because my friend and I were able to chat more because it was really quiet. The other people seated back there left shortly after we arrived, so it ended up being just us. The drinks were pretty good. I had two. My friend had one. The espresso martini was very good, and I love a pretty drink. Food was good, too. I wouldn't say it was excellent or anything special, but it was good. I would go back. Sitting in the back room kind of changed the experience, so I'd like to sit in the main dining room next time. Or stop in for cocktails. read more

Nosh is consistently one of the best restaurants to visit in the city of Rochester. No matter what night of the week, the ambiance and food is top notch.

Amazing dinner spot with ample choices and impeccable service. Busy on a Tuesday. Great ambiance! We ate(party of 2) at the bar which has full service. Great recommendations by the bartender. I got the pork chop and buddy got the chicken pollo loco. Pork chop was perfectly cooked with a pink center. Puree was excellent and had roasted Brussels. Pollo loco had some spice that was well balanced with the sauce. Plenty of drink choices but didn't partake. A must go if in the area. read more

Visiting Rochester and tried this place. Nice ambiance, very casual industrial chis The servers were very nice and personable. Drinks were good The Korean Sitdown was in our opinion overpriced. The chicken was the best meat on the plate. Pork was a let down. The soy glazed tofu and the lobster pizza were tasty and would recommend For entree we had the Korean chicken and waffles which were a bit over cooked. The vegetarian green curry was saltier than I'd have liked but portion size was good. Overall food was average, nothing to ride home about. The experience was overall positive for a casual dinner with friends. read more

I've heard about Noah but never had a reason to go as it is on the pricier side of eating. But went out to celebrate a friends successful thesis defense with a group of 9. One thing that was a little odd was that we had a to pay a reservation fee for a party over 6 that got put into a gift card which we received back at the end and could be put towards the bill. The whole system was a little odd but I can understand why they do it for busy nights (this happened even on a Thursday at 5pm when it wasn't that busy). Also they won't seat your party until the whole group is present so be prepared if you have chronically late people like some of my friends. The food is a little pricier but most of the items can be shared easily which makes them more enjoyable. We got the nachos, the fritters, two pizzas (the veggie tales and the reggie), and the Korean sit down bbq plater. Everything to say the least was amazing. I really loved the Korean food, it was spectacular and makes me want to look into more! The nachos were my second favorite item. For a party of 9 with all the food, we had a good time and spot was able to accommodate us! Definitely a nice spot for off times/days but would be probably rushed on more popular nights. read more

Dining at Nosh for my wife's birthday was a pleasurable experience. The brick building had a cozy feel with a beautifully lit bar that created a fun and welcoming presence. The server was a very nice gentleman, he checked up on us as needed and was even attentive to come and fill our waters in a discrete way that allowed my wife and I to carry on with our conversation. The food was excellent, the menu was simple and had just the right amount of items to pick from. My wife and I ordered the Lobster pizza and the Thai chili Wings. The pizza was well cooked as well as had a great portion of lobster on every slice, showed the cooks attention to detail. The wings were my favorite! They came with a tangy garlic aioli sauce that paired well with the spicy wings. All in all, for a pizza, wings, and a cocktail that my wife adored, it came out to 54 dollars. For a higher end feel this price it great for two people to go out. I would highly recommend this place for friends or a nice date. read more

We decided to do a local restaurant and this establishment was amazing. There was a steady flow of customers as we arrived early for our dinner but once inside the spacious venue we felt secluded enough to enjoy the meal at a spacious table rather than at a subway stop! The menu was well defined with one or two discreet offerings in each protein group, however these offerings were not your standard offerings. We began with an appetizer that would have easily been sufficient for a meal and then we sampled from menu its main offerings. The service team was professional to such a degree I had the sticky ribs and one of the staff prepared some hot towels for my clean up. I'm from the RVA and to come to Rochester and find this gem was outstanding. If anywhere near must stop opportunity! Reservations recommended! read more
