I grew up in the 60s on Rosewood Terrace, close to where Nino's is on Culver Rd. I remember getting…read morepizza there in the 70s when Nino was running the place. I moved to Texas in '82 and only got back to Rochester a few years ago. I didn't realize Nino's was still in business till just recently. I stopped in there tonight and ordered an extra large Sicilian pie. Nino's son Jimmy is running it now. The place is a liite different inside but the pizza is as good as I remember...that marinara sauce is still the same, flavorful and slightly sweet, loaded with mozzarella and a very generous amount of fresh toppings, all at a very reasonable price. I've traveled the world since I've been gone, even to Italy, and I don't remember pizza better than this. I'm glad they are still around. If you're looking for a great Sicilian pie, look no farther then Nino's... Molto bene!

Forgive me Ardor for I have sinned. As someone who went to college in New Haven... I must confess I…read morecheated on Ardor this past week with a certain new pizza place. My partner and I have been ordering at Ardor since I discovered it existed this past summer. But, a new shop labeled as New Haven style popped up; and I had to see if they were really talking the talk. After my boyfriend and I tried it we turned to each other and both said "it's good, but it's no Ardor." We picked up Ardor tonight and we will never be diverting away. Ardor for life!

The atmosphere here is great! I always loved the Swillburg/South Wedge and miss living in the area…read more This place captures the essence of the area perfectly. And the food??? Amazing! We got a WGR and Big Dodge Ram for pizza, and an order of 8 mild wings (extra crispy with a side of the wicked sauce since I love spicy food). The pizza was perfect. Great, crispy crust, flavorful sauce and toppings. And the wings?? Spectacular. Fried perfectly and both sauces were great. Mild Buffalo had a really good flavor, unlike some of the mild that are bland and boring. And the wicked had a great spice but good flavor, too. Service was super friendly and helpful for these newbies. We'll be back for sure. We definitely had leftovers so plan accordingly.

I hate that this is my favorite kind of pizza but it is. I…read morelove the satisfying thick Western New York-Sicilian/Detroit (whatever!) style squares. Just one piece is enough for any reasonably hungry person. The veggie options are fantastic, byo, also. The numerous sauces elevate your customization-level. They even have vegan pepperoni, folks! Crispy crusty cheese on the outer edges is killer. Quick and courteous service is a bonus. I waited a while to try it, but will make it a regular stop.

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.

Solid pizza and wings. Met the wife here after work after seeing some of their Tik Tok videos and…read moreit did not disappoint. First off the two girls working the counter were super nice and hustling, it was busy. The cup and char pepperoni was perfect. Good sausage on the pizza as well, and crust had a good chew, and some crispy bits on the edges. The wings could have been a little crispier but the buffalo sauce was in point, just the right amount of heat. Good blue cheese. Surprise hit were the fried onion petals. Not a lot of seating inside but clean tables and most people were picking up to go orders. Will definitely come back.

I tried (& loved) their Belgian triple since it had just won a silver medal at the NYS Craft Brewers awards. It was well-deserving of the honor it received! Staff was friendly and attentive, and it was easy enough to get a bartender's attention for a refill. Seating area was bright and spacious with great atmosphere. Parking situation is kinda hairy - extra tight spaces in a small lot, but it was manageable for a Monday, and there's street parking if you don't happen to get a space in the lot. Cheers!

We recently moved to the area and this has quickly become our go-to pizza spot. We've eaten here…read moreseveral times now, and the quality is consistently excellent. The pizza is always solid, but the wings are truly amazing--perfectly crispy and packed with flavor every single time. I also really appreciate that they offer gluten-free dough that actually tastes good (which is rare!). And don't skip the dessert dough--it's a favorite in our house. Reliable, delicious, and clearly made with care. We're so glad to have found this place and will definitely keep coming back

It's a true grab-and-go setup -- no real seating beyond a small high-top, and most people seemed to be taking their food to-go. The vibe is relaxed and unfussy. Service stood out. The man taking orders was very friendly and accommodating, and he let us know fresh pies were about to come out so we could wait for hot slices -- which we appreciated. I ordered the Rosa with pepperoni (they also offer it without) and the Buffalina. Both were very good, especially fresh out of the oven. Nice bonus: buy two slices and you get a free can of soda. Simple, solid pizza and great service. I'd definitely come back.
