Although another prehistoric sounding restaurant gets all the publicity, I find Sticky Lips serves more food, high quality, and at a better price. More

Service was slow, orders were wrong. It took over 1/2 hour just to get our drink orders. Once we had our food no one came back to check on us. More

Many people thing of Dinosaur first when coming to Rochester. I recommend Sticky Lips first. The co owner of dinosaur opened Sticky Lips with the same concept and recipes, but they have improved greatly over the years. Has been featured on Travel Channels "Man Vs. Food". More
