* ACME Bar & Pizza - the best NY style pizza in the city, by far, and possibly the state minus NYC itself. Not only is it damn good, it's damn cheap; two bucks for a HUGE slice. This leaves you plenty of cash to drink yourself silly by way of their amazing beer selection. Upwards of 40+ choices every day. Oh, also, that beer is cheap too... 2 for 1 every day from noon till 7 at night, then mind boggling specials from 8 - 1. If you couldn't tell, I like this place a lot.

I'll be filling this in more in the next couple days, so bear with the incompleteness.

Pizza

  • ACME Bar & Pizza - the best NY style pizza in the city, by far, and possibly the state minus NYC itself. Not only is it damn good, it's damn cheap; two bucks for a HUGE slice. This leaves you plenty of cash to drink yourself silly by way of their amazing beer selection. Upwards of 40+ choices every day. Oh, also, that beer is cheap too... 2 for 1 every day from noon till 7 at night, then mind boggling specials from 8 - 1. If you couldn't tell, I like this place a lot. You can also stare in awe of the GWS sticker I put on the beer cooler. Gws sticker ACME.jpg
  • Piatsa's Pizza - HUGE 14 inch slices. A few scattered locations across the city with gourmet pizza options including a great bacon chicken pizza, a buffalo wing pizza and the have-to-try-it-once Thanksgiving Dinner Pizza (including turkey, mashed potatoes, corn, stuffing on a white pie)
  • Chester Cab Pizza - If you want deep dish in Rochester, this is the place to get it. Yum.

Indian

  • India House - several locations now, I like the original on S. Clinton the best.

Garbage Plates

"Who has the best plate" is a topic that has as many right answers as there are people who answer it...

  • Mark's Texas Hots - My personal favorite
  • Nick Taou's - They invented them and it's part of Rochester history, so you have to go there at least once.

Fine(ish) Dining

  • Hogan's Hideaway
  • Rooney's

Mediterranean

  • Aladdin's Natural Eatery - Great place for Greek food, pasta, falafel, and really good grilled chicken

Asian

  • Flavors of Asia
  • Ming's Noodles

Wings

  • ACME Bar & Pizza
