The setting is nice but dark. Table was lopsided and i had to fix it or the food and drinks would shake the entire time. The food takes forever to be delivered and customer service is sub par. Empty wine and drink glasses and no even asks if you'd like another. We had to flag down other people to get the waitress attention. Had reservations for new years eve. It was supposed to be special and the food was burnt, small portions, and I dont why it says french restaurant. Dishes were small. It took an hour from 2nd to 3rd entree to get the main course. Got dessert to go cause we weren't waiting another hour for rhe 4th serving. It turned a special evening and holiday into a nightmare and ruined it. It is not worth the cost and would definitely not go here again. There are better restaurants with better service and atmosphere in Rochester.
I understand it might be busy, but dont book so many reservations or have the staff to handle the reservations for meals that were were not cheap.

Hot food should come out hot.
Came in for a festive brunch and ordered Crab Benedict. It wasn’t even warm…and the crab on the plate looked like cat food.

Went there for my anniversary. The staff were so welcoming and were happy to celebrate with us. Our waitress Meghan was very friendly and attentive. The food was fantastic, and the atmosphere was classy and comfortable. The bartender Wyatt made fantastic drinks which was the cherry on top for this experience! Would absolutely go back!

We’ve been loyal customers of Cure since 2024, and it’s always been one of our favorite spots. The beef tartare, in particular, is outstanding—compliments to the chef—and keeps us coming back time and again.
Unfortunately, yesterday’s pickup experience was very disappointing. Since they offer Curbside, I decided to give it a try. My order was scheduled for 5:50, and I arrived early at 5:37. I called as instructed and was told the food would be ready in about 10 minutes. By 6:01—more than 20 minutes later—no one had come out with my order or reached out to me. I continued waiting, assuming the team might be busy.
When I called again, I was told, “It’s been done,” in a tone that felt dismissive. The restaurant wasn’t busy, so it seemed my order had simply been overlooked. To make matters worse, when I asked if “curbside” meant I should come inside, the response was a curt, “Yes,” with no acknowledgment that curbside service is something you advertise.
If that’s the case, it may be better to either ensure employees are properly trained on offering this service or remove the option altogether.
We truly love Cure and the quality of your food, which is why this experience was such a letdown. I’m sharing this feedback because we know how much care usually goes into both your dishes and your service, and we hope this part of the experience can be improved moving forward.

This is a 5 star restaurant. Absolutely superb ingredients and immaculate orchestration of them. The short rib beef and biscuit was phenomenal. Poached egg was done perfectly with yolk that walked out of the white, rather than ran. Biscuit was brown and flaky with buttery and salty goodness. Nailed the strawberry danish real proper like with flaky and soft pastry and wholesome compote. Came back for dinner a few days later and the scallops were delicious with the perfect juicy and soft (but not raw) texture. It had a basil and herbed beats that I could eat—and I don’t eat beats. Ricotta cnocchi was so damn smooth it slid down the gullet with ease; no heavy chewing or rich resistance. Haven’t even had the pork chop I ordered yet but suspect it will be on point. Regardless, the delivery of all the above warrants a 5 star rating. Highly recommend. Mad props to the chef and cooks.

My wife and I were in from out of town and we stopped in on our anniversary. We had no plans, and no reservations but they were able to seat us comfortably.
I’m not suggesting to not make a reservation, it’s probably a good idea since the place is smaller, but we got in early.
The space is unique, a mix of modern industrial and cabin charm…(whatever that means) The surrounding area is awesome. Parking was easy if you care about that kind of stuff.
The cocktail menu was compact but had plenty of variety. The beer list was accessible, and a bit of something for most people’s tastes. The wine list was a bit more expansive so finding something to sip on won’t be an issue.
We went mostly small plates, but started with the Salmon Rilettes. Flavor was great, nice fat content, smoke came through but didn’t over power the dish. Seasoned really well.
We also had the charcuterie + cheese board. Cheese was approachable, nothing crazy. I’m not sure if the charcuterie is made in house, but both the coppa, and the prosciutto were flavorful, and sliced appropriately.
Honestly everything was just executed well. Would hit again.
