VICTORIA'S RISTORANTE & WINE BAR REVIEWS

My husband and I had our wedding rehearsal dinner in their side room and it was perfect! We had just under 50 people attend and the set up was perfect! The room is beautiful, cozy, and had great windows. The service was great and we enjoyed the food! Working with them to plan the event and menu was easy and took a load off our minds. Thanks so much for everything.

Rad Italian place reminiscent of the Midwest. Service was great, large portions, and tons and tons of gluten free options (never seen this many before). Excellent. Worth a try if you’re in Rochester.

This restaurant is a gem! The food was delicious, the service was great, and the ambiance was perfect. We especially loved the house wine and the pizza and sandwich we had. Definitely recommend it.

TERZA RISTORANTE REVIEWS

Came for the girlfriend’s birthday and wowza were we impressed. The lobster bisque was incredible and I definitly recommend. As well as the chicken Parmesan. The girlfriend got stuffed mushrooms and she loved that as well as her gnocchi.

Terza absolutely provided the best dining experience that I have ever had. The seafood risotto was phenomenal! The ribeye and filet were fantastic. Even better was the dessert! Our server, Maya, was the best ever. Anyone would be lucky to be served by her.

Top notch experience. Great food. Great bartender. The chicken piccata is one of the best out there.

OLIVE GARDEN ITALIAN RESTAURANT ROCHESTER REVIEWS

We had a very nice relaxing lunch today at Olive Garden and our waitress Tabby was a very gracious and hospitable hostess. One of the best things about this spot is the musical ambiance of romantic Italian music. It a great menu with very friendly folks. It's got some hideaway tables for a romantic date and a semi private meeting room area as well where we could have a business meeting.

This is our second time ordering soup to go from their catering menu, and it was AMAZING again! Ready on time, soup/breadsticks were hot and delicious, and their customer service is top notch. GREAT bang for your buck here...I highly recommend Olive Garden for office lunches.

Wonderful food, our server was fantastic too. Requested specific seating to watch over our vehicle in the parking lot and they were very accommodating. Just happened to stop here as we were passing through town but really enjoyed it and decided it’ll be a regular stop when we are in the area.
