Service was incredible, Ann Marie was our waitress and did a phenomenal job. The food was delicious, veal parmigiana was tasty and the sauce was very light. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Would definitely recommend for a family.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Call ahead for reservations. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Had a very good birthday dinner with the family here! First time here, enjoyed the ambience, cozy feel to the dining room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Menu is very extensive, and I wanted to try everything! I decided on the homemade pasta platter - it included a piece of lasagna, a helping of gnocchi, manicotti, and a meatball! I loved the meatball, very good flavor and construction. The lasagna was delicious, well constructed, and flavorful. The red sauce that covered the plate was bursting with flavor as well. The gnocchi's were puffy and light. I brought home the manicotti and half the meatball for lunch the next day, and they were still really good! The platter was $22 and provided two meals, so I'd say definitely worth the price! It also included free bread and butter and came with a house salad with some tasty Italian dressing. Also tried the parmesean peppercorn, which was creamy kind of like a Caesar, and enjoyed that! Definitely worth the price and had a good time! Friendly staff. read more

Very disappointing! A special birthday occasion. Brought out of town guests and told them for weeks how great everything was at Agatinas #1 Tina was Excellent! Her expertise "saved" the night! 12 in party. Food quality mediocre at best! Seafood Fra Diavola, out of clams, lobster as tough as rubber! $48, 2 of us ordered that. Gnocchi just OK. Other Chicken dishes just OK! Sauce 3 out of 10. It will be a while if we come back at all. read more

I lived in Rochester growing up from Elementary School thru college. Sad to say that since I lived closer to the thruway in Victor I never really had the chance to come here. Flew into town last night for the weekend, and my niece goes to Roberts Wesleyan so it was close and we found out that on Halloween it's never super busy. Parking lot there and even with the rainy weather it was wide open. Our server was Molly, and the person who greeted us and brought waters was also very friendly and professional. I'm going to point out that everyone here was super kind, helpful, and made us feel like we were royalty even though I'd never been here previously. We ordered drinks (I had the special sangria) and eventually ordered a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc- Cupcake. Tasty! Starter was the artichoke hearts, a family and personal favorite. Lemon forward, buttery, hearts were large. I wish the bread came before so I could wipe my entire face with the lemon butter soaked slices like a psychopath. For entrees, my brother got the seafood provincial, my SIL got the Pasta platter, my niece got the seafood Alfredo, and I got the pesto fettuccini. I opted for the clam chowder side, someone got the chicken soup, and my bro got the salad with the homemade poppyseed dressing. All dishes looked and tasted phenomenal. Probably should not have opted for another warm bread basket but my pasta had so much sauce it was helpful to the dishwasher since my plate was so clean. Passed on coffee and dessert. However, I saw the dessert tray walking out and I was immediately regretful. I'm a diabetic and I would've risked my blood sugar for some of that cheesecake I spotted with the graham cracker crust! All in all, a good family meal. Apologies for some of the photos because I started eating before I remembered to take a pic. Support small businesses! Thanks Molly and Agatina's for a wonderful family meal. Next time I'm back I'll see you soon! read more

We had a great dinner here last night with my mom. We had dined here once before and with the expansive menu, knew we needed to come back. The restaurant is easy to find and has lots of parking. The entryway is accessible and seating is possible for someone is a wheelchair, but the bar area and bathrooms are very tight. Reservations are recommended. We had a reservation for four at 6pm. They would not seat us until all 4 of us were at the restaurant. My brother ended up canceling so 3 of us were able to be seated at 6. Our server Kim was friendly and very efficient. She had several tables including a party of 12. We did not feel neglected. We ordered an appetizer, clams casino, and received 8 small but delicious clams! Salads and soup came out right after. We love their house-made dressings and my mom loved the creamy NE clam chowder. The bread is also delicious with real butter on the table. Extra baskets of bread do incur an additional fee according to the menu. And every table had a pitcher of water. Dinners were timed well. My mom loved her stuffed haddock and ate it all (she usually takes some food home) - she loved the stuffing! My Haddock French was cooked perfectly, the escarole was bright green and fresh. I do think the sauce was a bit salty and my baked potato was a bit overdone (see photo) but not terrible enough to send back. My husband enjoyed his Cioppino in a white sauce but also thought it was a bit salty. We were all full from our meals but could not pass up something from the dessert tray. Several of the desserts are made in house. We ordered some to go. We would definitely return here for another meal as there are more items on the menu we'd like to try, the staff are friendly, and it was a comfortable environment. read more

This is my hands down favorite Italian Date night restaurant in Rochester. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This restaurant is timeless to me. By that I mean that it is Cozy and Romantic. Perfect date night atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Perfect for families, with children who are well behaved.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]On top of it all, it's the cozy neighborhood bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm not sure how they pull all this off but they do, and they do it really well. Staff is top of the line. I have never had bad service, never ok service. Always! Excellent customer service. My Father is one picky Italian and when he is in town, this is our go to spot! I do recommend making a reservation, they get very busy, very fast. read more

Agatina's - Veal Asiago with homemade gnocchi - Italian Near Me - Rochester, New York

Revisited Agatina's after many years with a friend. We were warmly received and promptly seated at our table. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's one of the nicer family Italian restaurants in the area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Pinot Grigio & Prosecco were our drink choices. A basket of warm bread and butter to start. Appetizer: Calamari is nicely coated, crispy and a homemade stewed tomato sauce is really nice. We devour it. Halibut Scampi & Chicken Marsala were the main dishes. My friend loved her fish dish. The chicken was generously covered by the savory Marsala sauce and the mushrooms. I opted out of pasta and got a big baked potato, soft and dressed with butter and sour cream just perfect. , for dessert, we shared the Lemon Marscapone Cake, light and slightly sour. Espresso to finish The service was excellent and attentive. read more

Service is still super slow... we ordered chicken french which is super yummy! I highly recommend to try it. Bacon wrapped scallops was delish! Meatballs for apps was so so... they were hard and rubbery. My partner got bolognese and he said it was too heavy and greasy. The service from our waitress was good. She was attentive. The kitchen is really slow, there were ton of patron waiting on food around us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Especially the ones that had little ones with them.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was hoping they have improved. Wish them the best! read more

So we went to Agatinas in Gates for dinner tonight. It has been quite sometime since we've been there. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was crowded and loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]But we managed to get a table in the corner so that was good[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and after we were seated one of the bussers brought us our waters and then the waitress came to the table and took our drink and appetizer orders. Our waitress was quite friendly and our service was good. I ordered the eggplant parmigiana with a side of pasta the pasta and sauce were good the eggplant was okay. I'm not used to baked eggplant. I like it crispy but at least it wasn't soggy. And my significant other got the fish and the scallops wrapped in bacon. The scallops he said were excellent his fish was okay too. Then we got dessert which was the chocolate funnel cake so that was a nice ending to the meal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]So the ambiance was rather loud and the food was okay but the service, appetizers and dessert were great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Came here for the first time while visiting my parents. Took them out for a bday celebration. Courtney was our waitress and she was awesome along with all the staff. Ambience was very nice but inviting and comfortable. Portions were ample, and as a result, we probably ordered one too many appetizers...but they all sounded and tasted so good The seafood feast was a good size portion. Mom's eggplant parm looked incredible and was layered about 2" thick. The fettuccini Alfredo was creamy, not too salty and enough for two. And thank you for the birthday cannoli! The cheesecake was excellent and like most dishes, enough for two. read more

Something is going on the Agatina's This was one of the only really good Italian restaurants on the Westside. Some items are great artichoke French, calamari and desserts. I got takeout a week ago that was not cooked It's a lot of money for take and bake entrees. Ordered Seafood dish that was supposed to have lobster in the dish It cost was $50 and clearly had white fish not lobster. When brought to the attention of the waitress twice nothing was offered to make it better and no acknowledgement of the issue. We believe in supporting local businesses but it's becoming difficult to continue to support establishments that are not providing a quality consistent experience. read more

We had a lovely birthday dinner celebration at Agatina's we chose this restaurant for the versatility of all the dinner options especially seafood. It was very busy this night but we had reservations and they seated us right away at a confortable round table. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even though it was busy the atmosphere was pleasant and comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They had plenty of staff providing service to our table. We enjoyed the cheesy bread and greens and beans as appetizer. Entrees included homemade pasta platter (gnocchi, manicotti, and lasagna and meatball) pasta primavera in a marinara sauce. Seafood feast which was delicious and covered all the craving for lobster scallops shrimp clams ,angel hair pasta with marinara sauce and fried calamari as an entree which was so tender and perfectly seasoned. I did take pictures however my family is featured in them so I didn't post them. I highly recommend Agatinas and they also have a perfected the takeout system. read more

Imagine having a reservation for two at 5:15 and leaving at 6:40 without ever getting your entree and complaining to the hostess who tells you "if you don't like the service next time go to MacDonalds." This is the awful experience we had Saturday evening. Never again! read more

Always an excellent experience at Agatina's. Ample parking and friendly, quick service. I love the tomato sauce and their creamy garlic Italian salad dressing.

On a visit home to the Rochester area, a friend recommended Agatina's for dinner. I arrived early after landing in town with my elderly mother and her friend. We were quite early and expected to sit and have drinks and appetizers while we awaited a 4th member of our party to arrive. We were told by the hostess that we would have to wait until the whole party was present. Now mind you, my two companions were over 90 years of age, and the restaurant was empty. I asked to talk to a manager, who allowed us to be seated after looking more than a little irritated and making it clear to us that the normal policy was being violated. Upon being seated, I watched as two waitresses chatted with one another as we waited 15 minutes for them to take our drink orders. I wonder...when it comes to a restaurant's policies and its adherence to them ...is there no room for common sense or common decency anymore? With a large, empty dining room is it customary to ask 90-year olds to sit on a hard bench for 45 minutes instead of ordering appetizers and a glass of wine while they wait? As to the food, it wasn't bad, 3/4 of us like our meal. But with customer service like this, there will never be a need to return to Agatina's. Rochester has plenty of competition. read more

We had a very short wait with reservations as the place was packed on a Saturday evening We didn't mind as we enjoyed getting drinks at the bar. It does appear that they were back to full capacity but with masks required if you weren't at your table. We started with spicy calamari which was quite different than elsewhere. It was in an olive oil sauce with peppers, not deep fried, and very tasty. We followed with soup/salad and a reminder to myself for next time to ask for the dressing on the side. There was a very long wait for the entrées attributed to the kitchen being backed up. We enjoyed part of each when they finally arrived and had plenty to take home. Veal saltimbocca and chicken Marsala were excellent. We hope they can return the kitchen staffing to keep up with the dining rooms which seemed to be back to adequate help. read more

Agatina's - Chicken French - Italian Near Me - Rochester, New York

We came from out of town and had dinner here upon the recommendation of friends. The table shared bruschetta and meatballs, and both were delicious. I had Caesar salad, it was ok, too much dressing for me and lots of cheese. I ordered veal parmagiana, it was fantastic. Tender veal cutlets, lovely tomato sauce and just the right amount of cheese. The portion was huge. He took the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, which he did not like. The sauce was flavorless, and he thought the chicken was leftover, and dry. read more

Always amazing! Great service and delicious food. I've dined here since 1987, and they've never disappointed me.

We dined at Agatina's with another couple, based on their recommendation and enjoyable past experiences. The staff were superb, and the menu selection and food was very authentic and great. I would recommend this Italian restaurant to anyone seeking a divine dining experience. H D Harring, Pittsford, NY read more

Support local. Ordered take out for dinner. For appetizers ordered Calamari Reggio and broccoli French. Both were delicious.

Best Italian food in Rochester! Nice team that works together well. Dining rooms are very clean. Clams over linguini was delicious. Meatballs!!! Yummy. Artichokes French over angel hair was so delicious .. very light. Good portions. read more

Having been here a number of times I was really surprised this time. There was just so much wrong from burnt garlic bread, some sweet Italian dressing, meatballs that were so dense we could have played hand ball with them, to the finally of frozen dessert and it wasn't ice cream. Won't be going back, sadly it just wasn't the same. Btw: they request you observe a 90minute table time limit which of course is going to depend on how long it takes to be served your full meal. read more

We stopped in for dinner on a Saturday night. It was not crowded that evening. The staff was friendly and our server was also friendly & attentive. The food is reasonably priced & the serving size is large. I had the Homemade Pasta Platter & my wife had lasagna. Both meals were very good. We were served chicken soup 1st & it was very good. The salad was served 2nd & was standard Faire. We were served Italian bread before the meal. They also have a full bar, nice selection of wines & a decent selection of beers. This is a real Italian restaurant. We will be back. read more

Service was very slow. Dirty martini was undrinkable. The food was okay but overpriced.

There are no words. I am currently seated at your restaurant with my fiancé, my son, and my 3 year old grandson (who should be home in the tub right now!). Our reservation was at 5:30 (there was a reason for that!) and we are still waiting for our food at 7:00. We waited 20 minutes before anyone even came to our table to take our drink orders and that was only after my son sought someone out! There are no excuses as I see EVERYONE around us being served. We will never be back and you can be sure I will make sure everyone I know finds out about our experience. Still waiting for the limes for our drinks. This is exactly why I go to Pasta Villa! Never again! read more

First time ever at this place but certainly will not be the last! Blown away by every food item the 7 of us ordered! And Jennie our server was beyond amazing! Can't wait to go back! read more

First time there, really nice set up. Bars right there when you first walk in. Bartender was really friendly and helpful I asked if they had anything gluten free and she brought me a menu. I was waiting for the rest of my party to get there so I was just looking at the menu. The rest of my party showed up and we sat in the dining room. Ordered some drinks and then our food. Service was great for the most part. But it took a long time for our main meal to come out. Food was delicious so that made up for it, first restaurant I've been to that had outstanding gluten free dinner rolls and my meal was really good. I'm glad we came here great Choice definitely recommend trying it out if you haven't been before. read more

Stopped in for dinner with friends - last minute. We sat at the bar (which I actually prefer sometimes as the service is a bit faster). I've been to Agatina's many times over the years. The food there never disappoints. I've had the gnocchi, chicken and broccoli, veal parm and chicken parm and ever meal is delicious! Last week I had chicken french with angel hair pasta. As always.... tasty! I ordered the small portion and still had left overs for lunch the next day. If you go early there's no wait, no crowd. By the time we left at 7pm (on a Tuesday) the tables were full and people were waiting. There's a full (but small) bar so have a cocktail while you wait! Servers and staff are always friendly. read more

I would definitely recommend having a reservation if you don't want a 45-1 hour wait. The meals were great and the perfect portions. Meals come with a house salad. The chicken Parmesan and broiled haddock were our meals of choice. The bathrooms were not clean unfortunately. read more
