“BANANA PUDDING = ORGASMIC Wish I could eat that everyday of my life seriously. Everything we get from saucey is always banging but that pudding though 🤤👀“

“We went to this wonderful restaurant today for the first time, and it was unbelievably great! The man who waited on us answered all of our questions, the environment is warm and inviting, the service was the best ever, service was great, and we were not hurried in any way. Prices are reasonable and the quantity of food is spot on for hungry people. And of course, don't forget the desserts. There is a whole case of desserts to choose, and they were DELICIOUS. We will definitely go back and go back again and again.“

“Our first time here and we will be back. This was one of the best restaurant experiences we have ever had. Thank you for the delicious meal, hospitality and the lovely environment. 🤍“

“We loved the vibe here; everyone friendly and relaxed. Food had great flavor but oysters and musssls very small….hard and a bit expensive to piece together a meal. Think of the place more as a great place for a drinks and offering some good food appetizer accompaniments but a real meal.“

“Dinner tonight was fabulous. Fresh, great quality. I had the French dip, which I honestly must say between the beef, bread, couldn’t be better! I had the homemade mashed as a side. Excellent! The garden side salad was perfect combination of vegetables nicely prepared. My guest ordered the cottage pie all I can say is wow and it was also said to be very delicious and beautifully done. I haven’t been in some years it was pleasant to be back. The bar drinks looked amazing as well! You can’t be disappointed here! Our server Hailey was friendly and provided great service. A big thank you for not changing All these years and keeping it amazing as it always has been!“

“Fantastic food as always!! Duck was cooked perfectly!“

“celebrated my sisters 30th, the food was incredible. i plan to return asap for valentines day! I highly highly recommend“

“service five stars food five stars my only compliant is 8.00 for a blue“

“The atmosphere was was great. Our waitress Bella( at the Rochester one) was amazing. Very knowledgeable and friendly sling with our hostess and other table help. Was a great experience. The only thing I was disappointed in ( which wasn’t any of these peoples doing) was my porterhouse steak. For the money, it should have been a nice cut. It was an end cut, one that even some stores don’t use…let alone a very upscale restaurant. It was also supposed to be med rare n was med. I didn’t send it back because st least it was pink, but it was well past med rare. My crab cake was very good. The lobster and crab mac and cheese was also very good. I’d definitely recommend and go back. Just not sure if I’d get the porterhouse again. Probably go with just the filet.“

“Have had a few times now and the food is great.. The fish isn't greasy... The cornmeal had flavor to it and the jumbo shrimp are big!! Haddock twice and it was good.. Beer batter hasn't too fluffy to where you couldn't find the fish.. Great food and service!!“

“Vibes with flavors, more than food“

“I came for Pastry & Coffee, and decided to have a light lunch of Chicken Salad Platter. The Chicken Salad was delicious, fresh. The Salad Greens, Cherry Tomatoes, Mushrooms, refreshing and crisp Viennese Merengue Torte soft, creamy not too sweet. Service was nice and attentive.“

“it was good service was great“

“Last night we decided to go out of our way to try out a local fish market. Masters Seafood is about 10 miles away from the hotel we were staying at but well worth the drive. Everything was delicious and the service was no nonsense. Pro tip: call ahead so they can have your food ready when you arrive.“

“i ordered catfish okra and macaroni salad..... everything was sooooo sooooo good... the restaurant inside and outside was clean.... the staff was nice and accommodating..... i was in and out in a timely manner.... i would definitely recommend the FRIED FISH SHACK !!!!!“

“This is my favorite Chinese food spot in the city! It's the best sweet and sour chicken & chicken lo mein I've had by far and I like that they have so many options. Not everything is a winner but it's fun to try different things and don't think it's that big of a deal if you don't love everything. The food is always ready very quick and I like how they package everything up (it never spills or drips in the bag) The inside is sort of rough around the edges but it's take out only so I don't think that really matters.“

“I've had haddock dinners all over the state, most are ok, very few compare to Jimmy's at Davies seafood market. Never had a bad fish fry from there, Always fresh fish. I highly recommend getting the Jumbo dinner,$20 and enough for 2 ppl. And if you get there early you can probably score a baked potato instead of French fries.“

“Food was amazing, prices were good & staff was excellent! 10/10 recommend“

“So the scallops were down right amazing! The shrimp was great, crab legs were fresh and amazing, crawfish wasn’t the best, I suck the brains out and they weren’t as fresh as I’ve had in the past. The clams were okish, very small and I mean very small, so those weren’t worth the money at all. Fried Calamari was amazing! I’m used to chewy like rubber band chewy, but these were great! The seasonings and added heat was on point. The corn on the cob was extremely bland with just a corn taste, not the seasoned boil taste I was expecting. They need to cook the corn in the seasoning! Overall, nice place to eat and we will go back again. It was about $96 for my wife and I so that’s not bad. The girl that sat us was great, don’t know her name but she had long dreads. She’s a keeper, she always had a smile and super friendly. Our waiter was good and a good personality.“

“The staff was amazing! Tim and Alana went above and beyond! Highly recommend!“

“We had a retirement party for.my sister 5/6/22.The service was top notch,the menu was bold and the kitchen put a nice spin on all they presented.THE OWNER STOPPED AND GREETED THE TABLE.WEwere able to bring in our special dessert's and they didn't push us out the door . Bravo from top to bottom.*****“

“I recommend if you are ready to pay the expensive prices. I bought shrimp and chicken fried rice and I received 1 small serving. It cost $30 (highly expensive). The food was very delicious but too salty.“

“I was there in July 2025. I'm from Scotland, UK. I was over on holiday. Food and customer service was fantastic. xxx“

“Love the view the service the prices. Always look forward to going back“

“I had the BEST Chinese food here! It was amazing!!! Definitely my new go to place for Chinese food. Not only is the food delicious, but the people are friendly. The quality and attention to detail in the preparation of their dishes comes through in the balance of flavors. This is a MUST visit when you’re in Rochester!“

“It’s really good and I enjoyed it“
