The Red Fern was such a pleasant surprise for our mixed‑diet household. None of us are vegan,…read morethough we do have a vegetarian and one omnivore who's always happy to go along for the ride. We all found something to love here. We started with the pickled things, served in the cutest mismatched china. Everything was delicious, but the carrots were the standout -- so good we joked about drinking the pickling liquid. We also tried the Pink Lemonade and the Strawberry Alarm Clock juices, both incredibly fresh and vibrant. You could taste every ingredient. Since we couldn't decide on just one entrée, we split the Thai Kale Salad and the Buddha Bowl (with added mushrooms and avocado). The Thai Kale Salad was everything you want it to be -- bright, flavorful, and impossible to stop eating. We were sure it would be the star of the meal. Then the Buddha Bowl arrived. The smoky tofu, creamy coconut rice, perfectly dressed kale, and all the veggies worked together beautifully. But the real showstopper was the added mushrooms -- so rich and full of depth that we nearly fought over them. We enjoyed everything out on their patio and left already planning our next visit. A wonderful meal all around.

I got the steak and potatoes and it was great, the grilled cheese was good too, the kale was yummy and so was the salad, the chocolate mint Oreo cake on the other hand was either a week old or just not made with love cuz it was as dry as the Arizona desert, very gross. I'll be back tho for more try's.

The GF hush puppies were amazingly, GF arancini with their homemade sauce was so good, the bacon Brie GF mac and cheese (we did gf gnocchi as the pasta) was beyond words. My daughter tried the GF crab cakes (I'm allergic so I could not try them) and she said the taste was really good but they were too spicy for her. Then we finished our meal with GF raspberries crème brûlée and gf cheesecake. Everything was amazing. The owner (I believe he was the owner) was so nice and brought a hush puppy for my daughter and I to try without us even asking. He knew she was picky and thought she would like it so he just brought it out. My daughter LOVED them. We will 1000% be back. This might now be our new favorite gluten free restaurant in Rochester, NY. So many more things to try on the menu!!!

I've always loved the food at the classic, not only because the food is fantastic, but also because owner Drew is very personable and friendly. We decided to do the classics "Sippin' South" themed dinner. We had already done a beer pairing dinner at the classics several years ago, when they collaborated with one of our favorite local breweries, iron tug, to create an amazing multicourse experience. Firstly, the ambience was excellent and the atmosphere excited. we choose to sit at a table with two other couples we had never met before, but were glad to have interacted with as we shared in our common love of food in the great city of Rochester. We truly loved the pairing of each cocktail with the food. I think everybody loved the appetizer which featured a toasted bread with savory pimento cheese on top with a fresh salad with crunchy ham that functioned almost like a crouton! I personally loved the combination of onions and olives as well. The first cocktail was one of my favorites as it was a take on a whiskey sour with corn liquor with a tajin topping that was a stark savory contrast to the sweetness of the drink, but worked well. Next couple of cocktails included a take on a highball, a sweeter, coconut, flavored cocktail featuring a rum caste bourbon, and finally ending with a toasted bourbon drink that reminded me of an after dinner port. As far as the food, the chicken slider was delicious, and the chicken itself was well seasoned, my only nitpick was perhaps some sort of a aïoli spread to make it a little bit more moist, but this was made up by a delicious coleslaw with fresh vegetables! The lamb was excellent and served with perfectly cooked polenta. We finally ended with one of my favorite dishes, the caramel pecan bread pudding, which was a great end to this lovely dinner. Lastly, I thought the service was excellent and the dishes were well timed, I wish there were one or two more courses because the price was a bit steep in my opinion for the amount of food, although the drinks were plentiful and let's just say I was glad to have a designated driver!! All in all, we will return again to the classic kitchen :)

She raved about them when she was back in the office. I mentioned recently that I would be in the area where this store is located, and also just casually offered to stop by the bakery if she wanted anything. She was GIDDY. Not only that, but she quickly logged onto their website to check their menu so that she could send me with a list of a couple cupcake flavors she was craving (as well as cookie types). Hahaha. The bakery itself is fairly easy to find - and the inside is charming, while also easily displaying cookies, cupcakes, cake-types, and a variety of bread-related options. I stocked up on the 4 cupcake flavors (vanilla, chocolate, lemon, and marble), as well as 6 of the cutout cookies, for my colleague (big 'ol check next to everything on her list), and then picked out a couple of cookie flavors for myself (chocolate crinkle, snickerdoodle, and butter cookie), as well as an almond cupcake and banana nut mini loaf. The total cost was perfectly reasonable (especially for these being gluten free). I was able to enjoy my almond cupcake a short time later and OOOOOOOHHHH my goodness. Sometimes you can tell that items are gluten free... they're crumbly, or sometimes just dry and lacking in flavor... but this cupcake was NONE of those things. Had I not purchased it from the bakery myself, I never would have known or suspected that it was gluten free. The cupcake was the perfect texture, and the frosting was just the right amount of sweetness. TL;DR Delightful selection of baked goods. I don't need to eat gluten free for any reason, but I would absolutely stop here again any time - and stock up again, for sure!
