This posh place stays busy, so just remember to make a reservation unless you want to eat at the bar! Now, everything I ordered was big and too much! Had leftovers for days!!! ?The ceiling is exposed, the cocktails are strong, and the menu is niche! Dimly lit, you can access this restaurant from outside or inside of Village Gate. And don't forget the food is delicious! My falafel was a bit overcooked, but hey... ??♀️

Food arrived quickly but cold. Eggs on benedict were overcooked, again cold somehow. Lot of money to pay for lacking flavor and temperature.

The Gate House was a great spot for brunch/lunch (as we were able to choose from either menu) with an awesome mimosa variety! Our server Michelle was everything you would want....in personality, timeliness, and helpfulness! A wonderful experience and I would highly recommend going there!

Our server, Michelle, was terrific!!Pumpkin Toast was really tasty!
Absolutely LOVED the Gate House!! ✨ This is a true hidden gem in Rochester, and I wish I found out about it years ago! ?️? Their wood fired pizzas are 10/10. Got the MAG pizza (Tomato Sauce, Mozzarella, Asiago, Ricotta, Variety of Mushrooms, Fried Eggplant and Sautéed Spinach) and it was delicious! The dough that they use is the perfect mix of soft and crispy. ? The ambiance is also warm and cozy, with twinkle lights all throughout the restaurant. ✨ Definitely try it out if you are in Rochester! ?

Okay, let me tell you about Gate House – it's like the heart of Rochester's food scene! First off, their burgers are legendary, and what's cool is they've got loads of vegan options too. Oh, and get this – they've named their dishes after iconic stuff from around here, like the Kodak House and Susan B. Anthony. It's like a taste of Rochester's history with every bite!Now, my absolute go-to is their South Wedge Pizza – it's like a slice of heaven, seriously. But Sundays? That's when things get really exciting. Their brunch menu is like a culinary adventure, with all these seasonal specials that'll make your taste buds dance.And let's not forget their special menus – they're like works of art. Every dish feels like it's been crafted with love and creativity. Honestly, Gate House is more than just a restaurant – it's a celebration of everything that makes Rochester special.
The place was beautiful, the setup and even food were plated beautifully and looked beautiful. Taste wasn't perfect, and the service was very minimal, but I'd try it again in hopes for a better experience and maybe a different dish to get a better feel for it.

The food and service were very good; prompt and tasty. Prices seemed high, especially for the amount you get, but you're definitely getting a high quality experience. They don't accept same day reservations, so plan ahead, it gets very busy.Vegetarian options: There is a separate vegan and vegetarian menu and items are clearly marked

Food was average. Find this spot mediocre and over rated compared to other options in the Village Gate, nearby Park Ave area and surrounding suburbs.
