Sandra D.

Was pleasantly surprised by the adjustment to use of space. When I walked in regulars at the bar had to get someone to seat us. It was as 5p, so I'm assuming setup was still occurring. (Parking lot is still ridiculously small with the same mammoth pot holes- iykyk). We ordered the Brussels sprouts which were next level with the crushed peanuts. The crispy tofu with miso grits and slaw- tofu incredible, but the grits were a miss and slaw needed more seasoning. Still I would order it again. Finally, The Santorini which was a Greek influenced Flatbread with falafel, olives, feta, and cucumbers- very light and a very great eat. We ordered 6 of the 8 cocktails all were great- nicely made. The Honey Pot was heavy handed on the honey, but you love an abundance of honey this is for you. The staff was welcoming and friendly. Great place to try if you haven't. Perfect size menu with good options for vegan to meat lovers.

Skillet Breakfast
Sara D.

We encounter this place walking on a snowy Sunday afternoon in the neighborhood. We wanted Brunch, and that is exactly what we got. Skillet Breakfast with Egg Whites full of Bacon,Sausages,Potatoes,Hollandaise( this added that extra touch). It was delicious. A Vegetable Panini was our other order. Ciabatta roll full of Eggplant, Tomatoes, Roasted Peppers, Mozzarella. Good too. Mimosas to compliment the meal. Cannoli for dessert. The ambiance is rustic, informal, relaxed. Service was attentive.

Pea and Bacon Gnocchi
Francesca F.

This is a very chic spot, a sort of hidden gem I'd say. The food could be described as "American", but they had a wide variety of eclectic food options not usually found in your average pub. For non-drinkers, I can highly recommend the mocktail menu! They do a great job!

Friday fish special. Yum.
John H.

We were in Rochester for The Nitrate Picture show and dropped into the hideaway for a quick dinner. As we were perusing the menu we saw some plates of fried fish going by that looked amazing. It was Friday night so fish fry was one of the specials. We were not disappointed - that was a huge and delicious plate of fish. Along with a crafty beer - it was perfect. We wish we had more time to hang out but we had another film to catch so we had to eat and leave. We had warned the waitress that we were on a schedule and she made sure were taken care of quick. Great place.

Squash soup
James B.

There has been a big change of the menu. I had a "chilled squash soup" which was unbelievable. You should try this. I followed that with the Elk Burger cooked to perfection and with some good fries. My other have tried the vegetable Wellington which was set on squash. The price will chase some away but it is worth the few dollars to enjoy a great meal at a beautiful space Here again. Valentine dinner Great food and service

BLT with fries. Crispy bacon (not chewy) just the way I like it with yummy mayo on the side. Fries were perfectly crispy!
Emma J.

In the words of my friend this place was MMM MMM MMM! I have been to the previous Hogan's hideaway at same location, which was excellent, and was surprised to find out it had changed. The menu is smaller but the food was absolutely delicious and a lot of it was homemade. I went during lunch too which is now open longer compared to the previous location. Unlike other downtown locations, there is parking in the back. Park Leigh is also next door which is a fun place to peek in while you're there. I would definitely check this place out!

Vern's is definitely one of those spots that's worth a visit! They don't take reservations, and…read morewhen we arrived around 7:30pm on a Sunday evening, it was packed. We were quoted about a 40-minute wait for a table, but told bar seating might open up sooner (around 30 minutes). They took my number and we stepped outside to take a walk around the block while we waited. We ended up getting a text about the bar seat availability in about 15 minutes. Once we got seated at the bar, things turned around quickly. The space has a really cozy, intimate vibe with dim lighting, warm atmosphere and overall it feels thoughtfully put together. We ordered hot toddies to drink, which were perfect for the weather, and for food we got the Japanese sweet potatoes and the cavolo nero pesto. Both dishes were incredibly delicious - flavorful and well-balanced. Just be prepared for a wait (and maybe stay nearby instead of wandering off), but once you're in, it's a great experience!

We tried out Vern's for the first time on a Thursday evening! We made it there by about 5:00 PM and…read moreit was easy enough to get a table for 2 with only indoor seating available. It's a small space inside but it's designed well enough to manage a flow of traffic for customers and staff. We sat in the back greenhouse area. I think the least enjoyable part of our experience was how loud it was in the restaurant. Definitely not a good spot if you're trying to catch up with someone and your voice doesn't carry. I couldn't actually hear the specials the server was telling us. I want to try out Vern's again, so I may wait until there's an outdoor table or ask to sit in the second level to see if that's quieter. We tried one of their spring menu appetizer items, the Japanese sweet potatoes with kimchi ranch and dill. One bite and I was addicted, these were so so good. We then moved on to the classics for entrees -- bee sting pizza and the ragu-- and we were amazed at how good everything was! The only note we had was about the pizza, it was very soggy in the middle but still edible if you rolled it over in itself. We also had a few cocktails, and while they were somewhat small, you could tell they weren't watered down in any way. Two drinks was more than enough for me. Overall it was a great experience and we want to try it again. If you're someone who struggles to enjoy a meal out where you can't hear much, maybe wait for outdoor tables.

The good: this is a beautiful restaurant, the drinks and appetizers were very good, the ribeye,…read moresalmon, and eggplant plant meatballs were tasty. Desserts were also very good. The server was friendly. The bad: they were woefully understaffed. It seems like there was one server for the entire restaurant including two large parties. Ours was one of those parties. Our reservation was at 6:15. We were seated quickly but did not see a server for at least 30 minutes after. It took at least another 30 minutes to get half of our drinks, another 15 to get the other half, and another 30 to get appetizers. When our main dishes came out, some were not very hot, the crab fried rice was missing crab, but the rest of the dishes were good. After appetizers, dinner and dessert we left the restaurant about 2.5 hours after arriving. I'd try this restaurant again because the food and drinks were good but it's probably best to go with a smaller party.

I had a lovely time at the Alexander restaurant. I came on a Thursday night with a group of six and…read moreyou didn't make a reservation. However, the restaurant was pretty empty. Service was friendly and the weight staff checked on us a lot. I ordered the Caesar salad with french fries the garlic stuffed bread, and we tried to the spiritless cocktails on the menu. The food was delicious and I have no complaints there. However, the spiritless cocktails left a lot to be desired. I would probably come back here again.
