We started with the chips and salsa, which were fresh and the perfect way to kick off the meal. The birria fries were easily a favorite--loaded with tender, flavorful birria, melted cheese, and all the right toppings. They were indulgent and definitely worth ordering. The shrimp tacos were fresh and flavorful, while the al pastor tacos were juicy, perfectly seasoned, and had that classic sweet and savory flavor that makes al pastor so good. We also ordered the elote, which was creamy, cheesy, and full of flavor with just the right amount of seasoning. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was casual and welcoming. Between the generous portions, authentic flavors, and great service, Neno's is definitely a spot I'll be coming back to. If you're in Rochester and craving Mexican food, don't skip the birria fries and tacos--you won't be disappointed!

This was my first time at Chuy's Taqueria and it was enjoyable. They offer both dine-in and takeout…read moreoptions, with indoor and outdoor seating available. I chose to order takeout. I was craving the shrimp tacos; however, since they only came with flour tortillas and I preferred corn, I decided on the Mexican bowl with shrimp instead. I also ordered a pineapple Jarritos. The wait was short, and when my order was ready, it arrived hot and fresh. My only gripe was that I wished there was more shrimp in the bowl, but overall, I liked it.

However, sauces are not automatically included, so be sure to ask for them on the side. Side dishes are often an afterthought at many restaurants, but Chuy's offered several tasty options. *Tacos de Asada y Maduro: featured high quality steak with fried plantains. The plate included three tacos, Mexican beans, and rice. While the meat had a good char, it was slightly dry. Despite the menu listing chipotle crema, the sauce was not included on any of my visits. Its spice and creaminess would have tied the dish together. The plantains were perfectly golden brown and sweet. The beans and rice were both flavorful, though I wished the beans had a more consistent texture, as they varied between watery and refried. *Horchata: top tier cinnamon rice beverage that was nicely sweetened and well spiced. *Flan: was dense and creamy with a sweet, rich caramel sauce. The custard had a beautiful body and was a must order. I have never had a bad meal here, though consistent inclusion of sauces would easily push this spot into five star territory. Chuy's definitely satisfied my Mexican food cravings without leaving me feeling greasy.

Helpful with suggestions, just the right amount of chatty and very efficient. Hope to see her there on every visit.

They came with rice and beans on the side, which would've been fine if I hadn't already been given two full burritos stuffed with beans. Somehow I ended up with more beans than rice. On top of that, I had to wait way too long just to ask for sour cream and salsa. The salsa was disgusting. The water was warm. Our server was inattentive and ineffective the entire time, and there wasn't even salt or pepper on the table. I literally needed salt to make the salsa tolerable. Our total was $54, plus a $10 tip. For the price? Absolutely not worth it. Service? Trash. I would never go back.

Great Service, But a West Coast Palate Had Trouble Adjusting…read more My husband and I decided to try Rustic Taco Bar during Canal Days, hoping for a taste of our former home on the West Coast. First off, I want to give a huge shout-out to the staff. The service was truly great--super friendly and attentive, especially considering how busy it was during the festival. We really appreciated how welcoming they were. However, we found the food to be a bit of a culture shock for our palates. We understand there are regional differences, and for us, this was very different from the Mexican food we're used to. The tacos were served on flour tortillas that, since they weren't freshly made, could have really benefited from being heated or toasted on the grill to give them a better texture and taste. The biggest surprise for us was the filling. We've learned that "beef" on the East Coast often means ground beef, which was very odd for us in a taco, as we were expecting carne asada. It brought back memories of childhood taco nights rather than the street tacos we know and love. The salsa was just okay; for us, it was really missing that punch of salt and a fresh squeeze of lime juice that makes a salsa pop. Overall, the people were wonderful, but the food just didn't quite hit the mark for our West Coast tastes. If you're not used to SoCal-style Mexican food, you might enjoy this more than we did. For us, it was a reminder that we're a long way from San Diego!
