Upon entering there's an intimate bar area with the perfect dimly lit room to indulge in an elevated cocktail.

I had you had me at hello. Whiskey and cherry liquor paired lovely together and apricot, lemon plus being milkwashed delivered a perfect sweet but not overpowering clean, smooth drink.

A keypad at the top of the stairs let's you into the bar. There is a bathroom upstairs which is nice. Inside, the bar has great decor. Lots of red lights, neon signs, lanterns, and other cool decor. The seating is either bar seating or chairs & couches surrounding round tables. A musician playing the keyboard graced us with some sweet jams. Since these are craft cocktails, it takes a while for the bartenders to make the cocktails, but it's worthwhile. They have fun glassware for certain drinks - I was shocked when my drink was served aflame! It was called The Rabbit and was very tasty. A bit pricy per drink but a great place to stop for a few drinks with friends! Parking is ample in the area - street parking right in front and a parking ramp (free nights and weekends!) right across the street.

The entire restaurant is beautiful, inviting and absolutely spotless. Wonderful food, exceptional service and a great atmosphere. I can't wait to return!

It was easy to get a reservation and on the day, we were greeted and seated promptly! The service was prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable. For starters, we had the lobster bisque and steak tartare. I will admit I was a little apprehensive when ordering the bisque but I'm glad I did! It did everything I needed it to. It was perfectly creamy and tasty, as well as comforting! The tartare was pretty good but we weren't fans of the EXTREMELY crisp "bread" pairing. The main dish was the Seafood Perlou which was almost perfect (the mussels felt off). The cocktails were quite good as well! There were some curious pairings and mixtures on there but they worked very well! Overall, this was a good experience. It seems like a good place for a first date, or a business dinner, or even a more casual outing with friends! It was good without trying too hard, if that makes sense.

We had the tasting menu this week on a visit to Rochester. We enjoy doing tasting menus when we…read morefirst come to a new restaurant to try many of the dishes. We found the five course tasting menu to be interesting, but neither my wife nor I found the food to be delicious or memorable. Quality ingredients were top notch and the preparation and plating excellent, but we just didn't care for the flavors or combinations that came out. We expect when we get a tasting menu to have a few dishes that might miss the mark for us -- that's sort of the point. You're exploring the chef's ideas and dishes. It's strange when none of the dishes really hit with our palates and we travel all over the world in search of amazing food and dining experiences. To make matters somewhat worse, we did the wine pairing and oftentimes with the courses we found the wine did not pair incredibly well with the plates. Further, when the wine was served we never saw a bottle once and were never told about the winery, the vintage, etc. -- only the type of wine it was and what flavors we could expect. We've never had that before with a wine pairing. We encourage the chef to continue to explore his palate, creativity, and imagination and we look forward to the possibility of coming back again some time in the future to see how this chef and menu may have evolved.

Highly recommend the confit potatoes which are cooked in marrow fat with this really nice cheese cream sauce. Overall I think the highlight of most of their dishes including the Manti Dumplings and Bone Marrow risotto are their sauces which are well rendered, have a nice citrus tang to them (could be strong for some) or bone marrow rendered fat flavor. Service was great at the bar with our server giving us recommendations on how best to have our dishes. Food came out decently quick with the app first then mains. Was very pricey though worth it if you're looking for a nice treat with friends, partners, or family! :) Ambiance was chill and nice overall.

The service is improving but still a couple of odd one offs to fix like my husband's Manhattan was served over ice which is atypical.

Their classic gin and tonic with refreshing local mixers was still my favorite drink on the menu after we tried several from the happy hour menu in between appointments and dinner. The food including our Hot Honey flatbread pictured here was delicious & the Chef clearly was a pro. Easy to arrive by Subway from Mayo (in the Marriott lobby.)

The interior was lovely and the service was excellent and attentive. Our meal did not disappoint, either. We had the croquets with arroz con pollo, avocado crema, but no cilantro (my wife is allergic to it). Very tasty, as were our cocktails. My wife had the risotto with braised beef cheek (so tender!), roasted oyster mushrooms, veal demi-glace, and parmesan. Unctuous and umami. I had the Bucatini -- blue crab with anchovy butter and red pepper pesto. I'm a sucker for anchovies and the anchovy butter, once stirred into the pasta, was absolutely delicious and really complimented the crab. A truly savory and decadent treat.
