I called ahead to see what they deal was during the pandemic. They let me know they have a plan in…read moreplace (nope) and they dont take orders over the phone. I braved the world and went out for their seafood dinner. I will break this review in to the good and the bad. I will begin with the good. Davies seafood was delicious. I have no idea how it's been this long and I've never even heard of it before. It's a small little deli and you can order seafood, I saw wing dings salads etc. This is a pretty anxious time in life so I couldnt get a full view of their menu. I struggled to find it online but I was able to find a preview. Honestly just go in, you will not be disappointed. I ordered the seafood dinner that came with 2 pieces of fish, scallops and shrimp. Everything was just amazing. You can also ordered 2 sides. I ordered the seafood salad. Everything was wonderful but the seafood salad was out of this world, I could eat it by the bowl full. I also ordered fries as a panic move. I read prior that they fries weren't that great and they lived up to that standard. Not flavorful, nothing. I will say the next day I made them in to poutine and they were great. I will never get the fries again. They also had a million other apps on their menu I wanted to try but it was crazy inside and I just wanted out. I will be going back here for sure. Now for the bad. Davies let me know they had a plan in place. I mean I guess there were stickers on the floor for social distancing. People stuck to that for the most part. The stickers only go to the counter and the workers were calling multiple people up at a time, lack of social distancing. Then there isnt a real plan for how to get to the counter to the cashier. It's just a hodge podge of people in life, at the counter and at the checkout. By the time I left the line was out the door and it seemed like just too many people and no real structure or plan in place. I know these rules are just beginning so I'm hoping that davies can continue to figure out their plan and keep the food good and their customers first. This is probably the only reason the 1 star was gone. I did have to tell them to cash me out because no one was paying attention so maybe that's why I took the star away.

We have been coming here for about 5 years. We love their deal on steamer clams. They have hot…read morefoods to go, frozen foods, and fresh food in the case. The employees are really nice, and helpful. They can get pretty busy on Fridays, due to their fish fries. They are good. Good seafood has been difficult to find here in Rochester. But Davies has hit the mark for several years now, and if they clean it up, I will definitely plan to be back. We were there today for lunch. We ordered a fried clam strip dinner, and small lobster bisque. They called my name, bagged it up, and I was out the door. When I returned home, we found a fish fry in our bag, and not fried clam strips. We were not going to drive back and return it, so we split it and ate it. Disappointed is an understatement, not to mention I was kicking myself for not checking. The fish was good, French fries soggy, Mac salad, was fresh. Unfortunately, they added the Mac salad to the same container as the hot food. Be prepared for some of it to be cold and some hot, Mac salad on the soggy fries, etc.... I noticed today, The floor was sticky, and felt gross. The restaurant also smelled different, not sure why, it's hot or miss with seafood places. They were gearing up for their Friday fish fry's when we went in. We landed on the Friend clan strips because a friend recommended them to us. We were really looking forward to trying something new. Needless to say we were disappointed that we ended up with the fish fry, but at least we knew it would be good. The lobster bisque tasted sour, and we threw it away. The whole experience was disappointing, and subpar, compared to our usual experience. Which has not been our usual. However, since the start of spring we have been in 3 times, and all 3 times, were turned off with cleanliness issues. The sticky floor and wrong order, was kind of the camels straw. We went last week too, I was looking for specific fresh seafood to make Lobster Newberg with. The Haddock is always fresh, I also asked for scallops, and shrimp. I took the last of their shrimp, and to my surprise when she told someone the shrimp bin was empty, they took a bag out of the freezer, and added it. I was surprised, I thought that was always fresh, and not frozen, not the other way around. I also noticed that the man who handled the scallops was not wearing gloves, and after he went and handled something else. These cross contamination issues, sour soup, and sticky floors, is not usual for them, and my BF and I decided we will look for another place until they clean it up.

I'm posting this review mainly because I read reviews before I went, and started getting nervous…read morewe'd made a bad decision! It was not as bad as the reviews had me thinking, but I really can't rate it any higher than 2 stars. Two soap opera stars from General Hospital posted they were coming to Rochester, so I immediately bought 2 VIP tickets with no hesitation. I didn't have any idea where Rock Shrimp even was, but it was in Rochester, so I figured I'd find it, so I bought the tickets and didn't think about it again until the event got closer. Once I started googling to find out where it was, I read all the reviews and wondered if this event was a bad idea. We did not eat or drink while we were there, but the venue in general was fine. There was plenty of parking, and we arrived when the VIPs were being let in. There was a seating area for us in front of the stage, and we were only a couple rows back right in the center. I think the chairs had been in storage and recently cleaned though. They were VERY slippery! They were tall chairs, and I had to hold myself on my chair with the footrest or I'd slide right off. Everyone around us was saying the same thing. The chairs were also setup with no aisle, so it was dangerous in an emergency, and would have been hard to get out even to just use the bathroom. You can see from the picture I posted, the stage was very dark. It was hard to get a good picture, even though it was mostly a q & a, so they weren't moving around a lot. Also, from a performer standpoint, they were having a terrible time with the sound and their microphones. One of them actually stopped using their mic because it was frustrating them so much. It's a fairly small place, so we could hear when he talked loudly without the mic. After the show, there was a meet and greet, and they had us line up by one of the bars. We literally stood for a half hour without moving at all. At al!!! If we hadn't already paid extra for it, we would have left. I don't know what was going on in the front of the line, but after that, it finally started to move. That was handled very poorly. And the bartenders at that bar were audibly complaining that no one was getting drinks from them and we were all in the way. Also handled poorly. If I got an email again today saying they were coming back to this place, I'd go again, mainly because there's so few opportunities like that in Rochester. However, they had so many issues with the sound, I doubt that they would come back to this location again. Seeing and meeting them was a great experience, but it could have been handled a lot better.

This place is located where the old nolas is. I was nervous to come here because I checked out the…read morefew reviews that there are to this place. Because this place is new, there are only a couple on Facebook and the average was one star. The reviews on other sites are terrible, citing extremely poor service, a rude staff and very bland food. Although I disagree with the staff being rude or poor service, the food is pretty bad. It is made with no love at all. They start with bread rolls and I couldn't really tell if they were stale or they were supposed to be that hard, because they seemed like they were toasted. I'm guessing it was little bit of both. While dining, there is music playing, and this music is way too loud even for me. I went with my 60 something parents and they did not appreciate the volume. We were still able to have conversations but they need to turn the music down. They also need to turn the lights up. It is very dark in there. Seems not to be friendly place for older adults. I checked out the menu online before I came and I was very disappointed when I arrived, because what I wanted was no longer on the menu. I asked the waiter about it and he said that it hasn't been updated and he gets a lot of questions about it. It's not that hard, update your menu online! We ordered an appetizer and it came out with all the entrees. Although our waiter was extremely nice and accommodating, he didn't know much about the menu. Every question I asked he stated that he could go find out for me. I told him not to bother. The food is extremely subpar and I definitely will not be returning. My father got a shrimp linguine dish and I tasted it and it didn't have much flavor. My mom got the caprese chicken sandwich and although she said it was alright I could tell she did not enjoy it. I got the Cajun chicken sandwich and that was alright. The chicken patty was very flat. The appetizer we got was their famous rock shrimp served in garlic butter sauce. The shrimp comes with the shell on but this type of rock shrimp have sharp little legs and it is not easy to open them or get the shell off. The shell kept breaking in tiny pieces. I made it through two of them and then I gave up. They weren't anything special. The fries that came with our sandwiches were OLD and COLD. Definitely not made to order. It's the little things that will ruin a place. On a positive note, our waiter was good friendly, and the owner came to see how we were doing. I suggest you save your money and go somewhere else

Loving it again tonight! They keep it real. Very good food with the great family/neighborhood…read morefeeling this place has. Ate at the bar and didn't realize the owner was sitting next to me.

We were so thankful for the early seating! We came in a little early as suggested, for our 8pm reservation of 9 and sure enough they were able to seat us right away at around 7:30! From the moment we were seated to the end of our meal EVERYTHING was 100% excellent!! Shout out to Ann for taking such great care of us! She was on top of everything! Friendly and attentive...didn't miss a beat! Her recommendations were spot on! From the appetizers to the main course! All were amazing! Her #1 recommendations were the calamari Sicilian style and the greens & beans BOTH were so tasty! And the greens and beans were so amazing, my uncle ordered them for his main course! The meatballs with ricotta were delicious as well as the antipasto salad. Everyone loved their dinners!! My capellini with the white clam sauce was wonderful! My husband loved his manicotti! The others in our group absolutely loved their meals too! Veal Parmesan, veal piccata, chicken French... what a crazy awesome dinner! We even forced ourselves to order desserts to pass around! The tiramisu and cannolis were amazing! A very popular place that has been enjoyed by locals for over 35 years! So glad we came here while visiting family in Rochester! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

We really enjoyed ourselves here! Sorry no pictures ;( Their…read moreblue & gold smoked chicken wings were 5 stars, hands down. Their coconut panko onion rings were really good as well. A bit of confusion as to where to sit; dining room; bar or outside. If we 8 sat outside, $5 each extra (cover "band" playing); dining was 30 minute wait; so bar it was! They would not allow us to put tables together, even tho dining room waitresses told us to do so. But once we got seated, all good! Kellie took care of us! Shout out from K2 to K! They had pizza this particular night. I really liked it as well (not typical NY pizza. It's bar pizza, cheddar cheese, softer crust, great taste). Drinks were good. I absolutely, recommend this totally casual, yummy wings, pizza & onion ring location. Appreciate our friends brought us here! Eat, drink & watch sports on TV in this darker wood establishment.

Not great. We had a very overwhelmed server who seemed to be working alone on a Saturday night, she…read morekept walking away in the middle of us ordering to deal with other patrons or issues. I know being busy and overworked is not her fault, but she kept loudly yelling things to the general dining room, which was pretty startling. We waited over an hour for our food, got the appetizer at the same time as our dinners, didn't get asked if we wanted drink refills, food was so-so and my friend didn't get what she ordered. The spinach and artichoke dip was very tasty, which was the saving grace of my experience. I know this is a bar, not a fine dining establishment, but I would have loved not to drink out of plastic cups. Also, if you're a person of size, you'll likely feel squished in their booths. I would not rush back here, especially when Hose 22 is so close and offers better food and service.

The food felt overpriced for what you get like the artichoke French felt a little too heavy/oily I had lobster bisque and wish there was more lump crab they also charged me $47 for a soho which is insane for rochester prices

Physically, a very nice place - a view over Irondequoit Bay at some tables. It really needs some…read moresound bafflers, though, because the noise of talking in the bar area is overwhelming. Good parking and really nice waitstaff. The wine was a generous pour, which is always nice... but then we ate. Our first course was a "shrimp cocktail", which was six giant shrimp that had long outgrown their flavor, and a cocktail sauce that was extremely heavy on the horseradish. Second course: I had the Italian Wedding Soup. Husband had a side salad which he said was just fine. The soup was a large bowl of soup, and by the time we got halfway through, our entrees arrived, so we set the entrees aside to finish our sides. The soup was fairly tasteless; in fact it was very similar to the Progresso canned soup of the same name. I couldn't eat it all. A cup of soup would have worked much better. And then we turned to our entrees. Mine was Chicken Parmigiana and husband had spaghetti with marinara with a chicken cutlet. The amount of spaghetti in the big white bowl was - and I am not exaggerating - about the size of a soccer ball, with the chicken riding on top. The marinara on my husband's pasta tasted like tomato sauce without much of anything else. The Vodka sauce on mine was better. Cardinal sin of Italian dining: there was water in my husband's pasta that mingled with the sauce until it was like tomato soup. But why am I complaining about too much food, even when it wasn't that tasty? Because it didn't feel like dining, it felt like feeding time at the zoo. I suggest they concentrate their portions a bit and add flavor. I hope their $58 steaks are better. We brought home our leftovers, but we're going to add some veggies & spices to them. I really wanted to like this place, and I'm sad that I didn't.
