This is one of our new (to us) favorite spots to go to and to bring our friends and family to that…read morehaven't tried it yet! Our first visit was in January and we've been back 2 more times already. The main dining room is down stairs. The bar area upstairs seems very lively and inviting as well, and I've heard there's patio seating we want to try in the late spring. Service was excellent and very attentive. We loved everything we tried. You can do things traditional tapas style or you can go the appetizer and entree route. We had the calamari to start and some cocktails. For our entrees we each ordered the "feature" of the evening -- my fiance got the steak and I got the salmon. My fiance is pretty 50/50 on how good his steak experiences are in restaurants and he was very satisfied with the entree he had. My salmon cakes were SO good, everything tasted very fresh. The server also did a great job recommending a white wine to pair with my meal. We finished off with our dessert, I had the flourless chocolate torte and my fiance had (I can't recall exactly) a banana cream cheese churro I think? The desserts were amazing every time we've gone. We've had more chances to try other tapas items, the arancini is delicious as well. Also of note was that we had a good group dining experience here in February for a family members birthday. Overall if you haven't tried this spot make sure you do!

Oh so okayish! The vibe and the underground seating were great! In fact that's the high point of…read morethis restaurant! But, the food was average. We got the Brussels sprouts and arancini for appetizers. Both were so so. I got the 180 mocktail, which was good. The shrimp naan pizza was pretty basic but good. Our waiter seemed very nice. Based on his recommendation, we tried the banana cheesecake dessert which was terrible! Honestly, there's not much to talk about the food. But, if you want a cool space to hang out, this is your spot! They also outsource dishes from the neighboring Italian restaurant, Sagra. I probably won't be back.

I got the oxtail with rice and beans and cabbage. Everything was excellent. I just wish I had asked to have more gravy added over my rice. The lady behind the counter was super nice, helped me decide what to get. It's pretty bare bones inside, just a couple tables, plastic utensils, etc. I'd be fine eating in again but I might get take out next time. Either way, go here and get some great Latino/Caribbean style food, expand your horizons. Oh before I forget. Add the pickled onion on top, it's a great counterbalance to all the rich flavors.

I was greeted by the young woman behind the counter, very friendly. I believe her name is Denielys. I was craving for Tostones and Chicharrón. They didn't have Chicharrón, but they offered instead to cook Tostones y Fried Pork Chunks. Perfect! Waited a few minutes and my meal was prepared. With a Maracuyá (Passion Fruit)juice, what a delicious combo. They have Daily Specials. I'll be back.

The food was absolutely fantastic, delicious, and very filling. I was only able to eat half - great portions for the price. Fast service too - I was in and out within 3 minutes. Friendly staff too! My only regret now, is not trying this place out sooner. I also got a beef and cheese empanada ($2.50). I thought it was fairly plain, but the plate was phenomenal, and I will definitely return again very soon!

There is a private parking lot behind the eatery and entrance by parking lot or front street side. Definitely, will return.

It's amazing how food and flavors can make you feel close to family again. This place is worth every penny.

Cannot recommend this little spot any more. Was in town for work and looking for a veggie-friendly…read morelunch. Wow! Was so impressed! There are a ton of amazing vegetarian options on the menu and, since I was from out of town, I was the obnoxious person and proceeded to bug my amazing bartender, Nikki, for her recommendations. I ordered the carrots and parsnips and then also the roasted zucchini from the light fare section of the menu. They were both incredible and wildly different, which you don't often find in vegetarian selections. I wish I would have taken the time to take photos to post, but I gobbled everything up way too quickly before I could even think of taking out my phone. All this being said, this is not a vegetarian restaurant. Back in the days when I ate meat, I would have made different choices and I am 100% sure that I would be equally impressed.. Back to Nikki: my service was incredible. Really knowledgeable and so personable and friendly. I didn't actually want to leave. I was having such a low-key nice time away from my hotel. Ambiance (because one has to check off all the keywords) is great. La Bola takes up the first half of a really cool food hall in Rochester. It's modern and chic with great lighting and a windowed front. But, to wrap it up, as someone who travels way too much, I couldn't recommend this place anymore. Everything about my experience here was just wonderful.

The ambience was more like an open food hall meets bar venue but somehow it didn't click with me. We were the only other occupied table for a weekday dinner. Service was prompt but that's probably the only good thing. I got a mocktail which was watery and patatas bravas for appetizer. It was good but a bit saltier for my palate. I got the duck confit which was deplorable. The duck leg was scaly and dry and the sauce and the cauliflower didn't make up for it. My friend got the house burger and she said she liked it. I'm glad we didn't order dessert, it may have been another disappointment. Overall, a meh experience.

3 Latino seems to be a place that neighborhood locals or Dominicans are aware of, but after tasting…read moretheir food, they're worthy of receiving a much broader audience. This small mom and pop restaurant is hidden in the corner of Palm St. next to a barbershop across from the Kodak building. There's few parking spots in the front of the entrance so it's mostly street parking. When I walked in, the bar is in the front and the dining area and buffet counter are in the back. They also offer menu items and cater as well. I wanted take out so I opted for their large plate. It was packed full for a small cost of less than $8. Their buffet selection consists of about six meat options like stew chicken, baked chicken and beef and the plates come with the standard white or yellow rice and beans. The stew chicken was tasty and so tender it glided off the bone. The fluffy yellow rice was mildly seasoned but the flavor comes from the red beans poured on top (or on the side). Definitely a new spot I will go back to and looking forward to checking out their menu items!

You wouldn't want to eat off the floor in this place, let's just leave it at that. Very low end…read moreshoestring operation, with several generations in the kitchen. We stuck to slow cooked beef and pork dishes with yellow rice and beans which were already made and sitting in warmers. They made up some fried plantains while we waited. Pretty generous portions, and food was pretty tasty, but we were a little skived by state of place, not the cleanest. Has a bar and dining room, but pretty much zero atmosphere, so get it to go is my advice. And for significantly less than $20, you get a ton of food to take home for your Netflix and Chill. It's not high end, but it's home cooked by genuine Latinos, and that's what you came for right? To get your pork and rice and beans on. Give it a try.

I am sad that it's not on their normal menu as it wasn't available the second time I went. The bread they bring out in the beginning is garlic toast and it is warm and buttery. Mmm. I got the garlic shrimp mofongo. It was hot and garlicky- the only problem is there and no real garlic chunks which would make it perfect. Service was a little inconsistent and slow but they were friendly. The restaurant itself has been decorated tastefully and it's a homey environment. You can also get a table looking out to the water. We will come back

The ambiance was alright but I never got to see much because I never got a table.

809 Takeout in Greece, NY is a slice of heaven, and as a Dominican, I can say with full confidence…read morethat this place is the real deal. If you are craving authentic Dominican food, look no further. Every dish is made with love and tastes exactly like home cooking. The menu covers all the classics: pollo guisado, arroz blanco, habichuelas, pernil, moro, chicharron, and frituras, just to name a few. And if you do not see something you want, just ask! The staff goes out of their way to accommodate you and will do their best to make it happen. Speaking of staff, they are consistently friendly, warm, and welcoming every single visit. That kind of hospitality is rare and it makes the experience even better. One thing to keep in mind: the space is small with limited seating, so takeout is the way to go. But trust me, the food travels beautifully and is absolutely worth it. If you are in Greece and looking to try something new and exciting, do yourself a favor and check out 809 Takeout. You will not be disappointed!
