I am not one to give out "5 stars" or "Excellent" easily. Park Avenue Pub was perfect, excellent, a great evening and a great meal. Our son graduated from college, and our family went out for dinner - a group of nine. The food we had was really outstanding. Freshly prepared, fresh ingredients. The flavors were very, very good. The... More

Park Avenue Pub has excellent food. Best Dover Sole in Rochester. The regular wine list is great but if you prefer more upscale, ask for the Captain's List which features more refined, higher price point wines both domestic and international. Service is always attentive, professional and friendly. It's our "go to" for a good dining, good wine(ing) night. I recommend... More

We (my wife and I and another couple we have known for 40 years) whenever we want to have a special occasion. This restaurant is in a class of its own. Of course, we get special treatment because we are regulars. The wine list has wines you can die for. The menu is excellent. They have introduced dishes sized for... More

After walking by a million times and wondering if it was any good, I finally scheduled a reservation for my fiance, the 'rents, and myself. Walking in we were pleased to have our coats taken by a warm and friendly gentlemen who could very well have been the owner. We sat by the windows and enjoyed the ambience and view... More

Stopped here after a day of local skiing where we wanted to avoid any of the big chain restaurants and go local. Not disappointed one bit as we got there kind of late for a Sunday night but still found a number of serious diners and very good staff. Fantastic fresh pasta appetizers followed by classic veal dish and fish... More

I have always enjoyed the Pub over the years yet hadn't been since the new owner took over. It was just great! They retained the option of a small or large plate for entrees and the wine list is extensive. (Ask the waiter about the off list gems!) Happy hour from 5-7 and again from 9-11. Don't hesitate to try... More

This is one of the best values in Rochester. The service is superior and the food is excellent. The owner goes out uof his way to present one of the best wine lists in the city at a very fair price. Ask to see the Captain's List for some top notch selections. The bar has a real "neighborhood" feel and... More

Ok, depending on what you order, it can be a bit pricey. But this is now one of our "go-to" places for special guests. The menu changes a lot and thankfully is not too large that they can't handle it, and is always creative but not ridiculously so. Enough choices for everyone. The service is always good and food really... More
