She did everything she could to help lift my little one's mood, bringing over fun pens, colored markers, and a notepad. The chef even made her a special meal! Everyone was incredibly kind and welcoming. It felt like more than just a restaurant experience. As a parent, you really appreciate the extra effort and kindness people show your little ones.

There was gluten free bread available upon request. The service was ok, the waitress was extremely soft spoken and it was difficult to hear what she was saying. My eggs were overcooked and lacking seasoning. I also think it is pricey for what you get. For example, the "tot flight" is literally 4 tater tots with sides of sauces for $13. It's a cute spot, but overall not my favorite breakfast spot in Roc and I probably wouldn't return.

The margarita needed a little more cheese. But if do that again. Artichoke pizza was lovely. Beer was amazing. Although i do not love sours i appreciate the creativity.

Vanni's Jazz Lounge makes for a fun evening out in Rochester. Our group had a great time visiting…read moreduring the first set of live jazz music from 5pm-8pm. Vanni's is located in The Inn on Broadway and upon entering you will see an elegantly decorated lobby; walk down the stair to find a book case which may contain a secret entrance to the lounge. I don't want to spoil the gimmick, but it's very charming and our group had fun with this detail. The lounge is spacious with a select amount of table seating and couches. We chose the bar in case the music was loud. The decor and lighting helped make for an immersive setting. The design features stood out and we loved the look of the lounge. The performers we saw were enjoyable, though we were hoping for something a little more lively. I ordered The University Club cocktail. The drink was delicious and picture perfect. The bartenders made us feel at ease and were fun to chat with. We didn't try any of the small plates on our visit, but this is an option. Plenty of free parking is available. If you want to have a unique night out in Rochester give Vanni's a try.

The bar has what I look for - interesting crafted cocktails (including specials), a good liquor selection, and fun people behind the bar with whom to engage. I can understand why my friends liked the place. We did have some food here, but I'm more enamored with the drinks. We ordered hummus, which was supposed to come with bread (they say naan, I think it was pita, but that's fine) and veggies. It did come out with the bread. When we asked about the veggies, we were given 2 different answers by 2 different people. One implied folks didn't always want them, another said the chef forgot and apologized. The hummus had an unexpected flavor, and when I checked the fine print on the menu it says, "chefs choice flavor." We didn't order anything else here, but we saw several orders of wings go by, and they looked really good too. On a Saturday afternoon, get here early, because if can fill up quickly.

It's located in the lobby and there is a patio with jazz on Tuesdays and Thursday. There wasn't a spot on the patio available so I ordered at the bar and sat at tables in the lobby. The bartender was busy and seemed annoyed with me as it was super busy and I was asking questions. Oh well! My drink was lovely (it was lavender infused gin and tonic kinda) and I ordered steak frites which was good but in asking for medium rare my filet was definitely overdone. This is a great spot for happy hour but not sure I'd order a steak again.
