    I was really excited to try Eleven Bar after hearing good things, but unfortunately, it wasn't the experience I expected. AT ALL!! And the food... I wouldn't know didn't even bother to stay. As soon as we walked in, the music was extremely loud and not at all the atmosphere we anticipated. We actually had to be seated in a corner just so we could hear each other talk. It completely changed the vibe of what we thought would be a relaxing night out. The music and overall ambiance just weren't what we were expecting, and it made it difficult to enjoy our evening. Sadly, we left disappointed.

    This was honestly one of the worst restaurant experiences we've had, especially for such an important occasion like Mother's Day. We decided to try Eleven Eats & Bar because of the positive reviews and the advertised live music. We made a reservation in advance for a group of 9, including children, since we were celebrating three moms in our family and wanted a nice experience. When we arrived on time, our table apparently was not ready yet. The hostess politely asked if we would mind sitting in the last room of the restaurant. At first we agreed because we had no idea what the room looked like, but we also mentioned that one of the main reasons we chose this place was for the live music. Unfortunately, the room they seated us in felt completely disconnected from the actual restaurant. The place itself is not very big, so you could barely hear the music from far away, but it definitely did not feel like part of the restaurant atmosphere at all. It honestly looked like they had quickly pushed random tables together at the last minute. The area was dirty, messy, and disorganized, and the overall atmosphere was terrible. We ordered the kids' meals first so they could eat quickly, then ordered the adults' meals. After waiting 55 minutes, not a single plate had come out, not even simple children's meals like burgers and chicken strips. Completely unacceptable. The hostess did apologize at the beginning for seating us away from the music, and she also apologized again at the end when we informed her we would have to leave. We made it clear to her that we knew it was not her fault. However, the manager never once came to speak to us or address the situation, which says a lot about how poorly this place is managed. What makes this even worse is that the restaurant was not packed. We barely saw new customers coming in, and while other people were finishing their meals and leaving, we were still sitting there with absolutely no food. In the end, we had no choice but to leave because almost an hour had passed and nothing was coming out of the kitchen. They completely ruined what was supposed to be a special Mother's Day celebration and wasted our time. We absolutely do not recommend this place, and after this experience, we will never be returning.

    Eleven Eats is a new restaurant located in the old Da Francisco's location. They did a fabulous job with redecorating. It has a very cool chic vibe! When you walk in, the bar is immediately to the right. There are beautiful paintings in the walls and something to see everywhere.y first impression was definitely a good one. We took our seats at the bar and we're the only ones there. But we got there shortly after opening. There were two bartenders who were absolutely wonderful! They knew their menu and were able to make recommendations based on customer preferences. I ordered One Wish which was fantastic! It had a fun edible bubble on it which was a nice touch. I switched to wine after that though. We ordered Lobster Risotto and hot honey flatbread. The lobster Risotto was absolutely fantastic! I can't wait to eat my leftovers! I don't like spicy or honey so I didn't try the pizza but I was told it was perfect! The restaurant quickly filled up and they had live entertainment starting around 8. The owner came around to ensure everything was ok and also gave us samples of new dishes they are working on. We also got some complimentary drinks to try that they were working on. I'm super excited that they are starting Sunday brunch soon. I love brunch and I'm always looking for somewhere new to try. They are looking into making unique choices for brunch and I have no doubt that they will! Overall this was a wonderful experience and they had some really great options on the menu and I am looking forward to coming back and trying something else!

    Great food great service and ambiance my new spot and good drinks too. Also live music on the house

    Classic burger with wonderful, fresh, french fries. When the drink had beautiful berry sugar rim and a bubble of smoke.

    This is a great place. The vibe and decor are very chic. They have nice happy hour deals. The food is beautiful and the craft cocktails are gorgeous. The staff is very focused on you having the best possible experience. The food was fresh, well prepared, pleasing to the eye and high-quality. I would definitely recommend this place. My husband has serious allergies. They were very careful and complied with every request to make his dinner safe.

Everything tasted super fresh and the menu leans more "snacky" in the best possible way -- perfect little plates that are clearly meant to pair with wine. We ordered a few things for the table and it felt like the kind of place where you just keep ordering one more thing because everything sounds good. Nothing heavy, just really well done bites that let the wine shine. Speaking of wine, the selection is awesome. It's not the usual predictable restaurant list. There are some really interesting bottles and styles on there, which makes it fun if you actually enjoy trying different wines instead of just defaulting to the same thing every time. Service was great too. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and welcoming, and you can tell the owners are really hands-on and working hard to make the place special. That always makes a difference. And the ambiance... chef's kiss. Moody lighting, cozy, stylish but not pretentious. Just good vibes all around. It's the kind of spot you want to linger at with friends and a second bottle of wine. Already planning my next visit :)

Adding our recent pov if it might assist any others new to DF. It was our first time dining at their new location (on the west side of Van Dyke, formerly on the east side in a much simpler space). Clearly folks love it! DF has innumerable exuberant fans. "in crowd", Jam packed on an early Thursday evening. We appreciated being politely greeted and seated at our reservation time and were directed to the back room. It was rollicking at full capacity. Tables full of dinners, birthday celebrations and youngsters blabbing, showing off. The room was annoyingly loud. Installation of sound absorbing acoustical ceiling tiles could likely help excessive noise. We appreciated being seated in a booth which was more private than seated at an open table amongst "the crowd". A DF booth is a good place to sit only with your spouse, or date. They're small, you'll make close eye contact, touch each other's feet and nearly your knees under the table. We were promptly and politely served gourmet quality bread. We inquired about, then ordered two glasses of house wine -- note, it should accurately be described as children's juice box drink. Our dinner salad was fresh and delicious as were our Italian style chicken dishes. DF also serves delicious pasta with meat sauce after salad and before entree. Everything was well prepared and tastefully presented. Support staff helpful clearing dishes along the way. Portions generous -- nice bringing leftovers home for next day lunch.

While there is a hint of the old time speakeasy in finding the place (it's really not that tricky) walking down the stairs and into the beautiful bar is just absolutely lovely. It's dark, and low lit, and the ambience is chill with a hint of hush hush and just visually so appealing. This level detail isn't just left for the eyes, the drinks here are very well made. Every single one I've had the pleasure of trying has been well balanced, flavorful, and yet somehow appropriately spirit forward. And the barstaff who puts these delectable mixtures together are absolutely well versed, knowledgable, and willing to adjust any of their drinks to your own personal tastes. Of course, the prices run a little higher, but I found them to be typical of what we see, but in this case I think the experience is well worth the cost. You're getting impeccable aesthetics, fantastic service, and wonderful drinks and it's so hard to find places that meet all three anymore. I will absolutely be coming back and highly recommend.

This cocktail bar is small, low ceiling with low lighting, and simple decor. Their menu is a small book of interesting, and priced as such, cocktails. Each has a fun name. They do offer a small list of beer and wine, and obviously you can order a standard drink as well. They have a few snack offerings, but there is no full menu. A friend and I went at the right time, the late end of happy hour on a Friday, but before any crowd. We did not have a reservation, but they were quiet when we arrived and we were seated immediately. They do have a 90 minute table limit for busy nights. The service was fantastic all around. We both enjoyed our drinks and the atmosphere. This may be the best place in Rochester for a drink.

It was, hands down, the best experience we've had at a restaurant in a long time. We are very choosy with where we go out to eat these days because the service always seems rushed, the food quality doesn't match the price on the menu and feel like we're just a table to turn instead of a valued guest. This was most certainly NOT the case at Testa Barra. Our server, Bradley, was wonderful. He was friendly and personable, gave fantastic food/cocktail recommendations, and was extremely knowledgeable about the spirit selections and food preparations. The atmosphere was elevated and polished, yet relaxed. My husband had the smoked old fashioned (love the table side service) and I thoroughly enjoyed the dirty martini and refreshing "garden of Eden" cocktails. Calamari for starter was crispy on the outside and perfectly tender, cooked just right. The Ragu Conchiglie and Barramundi were deliciously comforting and flavorful. We truly enjoyed our evening from start to finish and will most definitely return.
