We ate here for the first time. Calamari was hot and crispy, delicious. Salads were okay, bread was too. I had chicken saltimboca with rigatoni. It was very good. My husband had blackened swordfish with rigatoni, he enjoyed it. The waitress was fine, friendly and helpful. The only problem was the party of 6 seated next to us, with one loud, obnoxious drunk being in charge. He kept telling the waitress to take care of them and she would get 35% tip. Wow, arenât you impressed, or so we were supposed to be. I donât know what the restaurant could do, but it clearly was spoiling our meal and several other tables too. Will go back, but hope the drunk is elsewhere.

When you're in the mood for a slice of pizza that will overtake your mouth with the robust flavors of fresh tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, and hints of garlic and Italian spices, visit the finest pizza place in Fairport, NY. TK's Pizzeria is the place to go

T K's has been our favorite for many years. We get pizza from all the other places, but keep coming back to T K's because we like it the best.Although there is seating, the interior isn't much. I'll stop in for lunch if by myself but otherwise we use them for takeout.I've read a couple of comments about the owner being rude. He is matter-of-fact, and maybe a bit blunt, but I've never considered him rude. He is hard working and extremely fair. One time I came in at the tail end of lunch service (they close immediately after until evening) and he was done serving. He had a couple of slices left but just gave them to me because they'd been sitting for a bit. Anyway, great spot, give them a try.

Ordered a sheet pizza recently. Always good, nice crust, lots of cheese. My order was ready sooner than I expected, which was perfect. I also ordered a gluten free pizza - which was delicious. It came with it's own pizza cutting roller. Nice touch. Service was friendly and they have lots of different coupons to save a few dollars.

A small restaurant that puts out a lot of good italian food. Good place to stop and dine when you are in a hurry. Also offers take out which is great. Good menu selections (pasta, eggplant, chicken, greens and beans, etc.) Worth a try.
6. Ristorante Lucano

The layout of Ristorante Lucano rambles, much like someone's home. Several small dining rooms create an intimate setting. Owners Chuck and JoAnn Formoso host and are genuinely concerned that their guests have a good experience. They are well versed in fine Italian dining, well beyond the usual cliches. Many of the staff have been with Lucanoâs for a long time and seem to share the Formosoâs vision.The menu only tells half the story, as there are usually many imaginative starter and main specials available. Seafood is generally on the specials menu, to take advantage of the freshest and best available.Recently I had the Barramundi fish, prepared with a Panko and walnut crust and finished with a citrus beurre blanc. It was heavenly! I chose the haricots verts and candied carrots as my side dishes. The carrots were drizzled with fragrant fresh honey and were really nice. My dining companions were very pleased with their braised veal shanks and beef tenderloin.Weâve dined at Ristorante Lucano several times in the past and have never been disappointed in this lovely family establishment, that tries very hard and usually succeeds beautifully.
5. Joey's Pasta House

We went here with some friends that had been here before. This restaurant is very nice. It is a little "close quarters" in some areas of the restaurant. The staff is polite and friendly. The menu carries a lot of different choices, from seafood to steak and of course, a large selection of pasta. The dinners that we had were very good. They were well prepared, fresh and hot. It took a little bit for our meals after an appetizer, but we were catching up with friends so we were ok with that. The bread that is brought out to the tables was promised between the appetizer and salads, but didn't show up until after our meals were brought out. A couple of meals were ordered to go as we ate and they too were a little slow coming out. The kitchen seamed to be slow. Overall, this is a very good restaurant. We will return and would recommend.
4. The Northside Inn

Reviewed By Alisonvo
A large group of family attended a holiday Brunch at Northside and it was horrible. The dining room was WAY too crowded, to the point that it was difficult to even get to the buffet. We had to move tables for a lady with a walker to get through. The buffet had run out of many items by the time we got there (not even at the end of the seating times), and staff were distracted and surly when we asked if there would be more food. (The answer was no.) The food that was left was not tasty and not good. We asked for a refund and got yelled at--needless to say, there was no refund. We will never go back.

Our hotel recommended Charlie Brown as a great restaurant for dinner! They were right! A great place! Very comfortable pleasant environment! Very relaxing with excellent service! Nice bar to enjoy a drink while you wait for your table! It was very busy so we were glad we had a reservation! The food was amazing! We had pasta and roast beef! Well cooked and presentation was very nice! Friendly, well trained servers! Restaurant is within walking distance of the hotels in that area! Stop at the Pour House Bar for a drink before dinner it is literally next door to a Charlie Brown! We had a great evening and amazing food! Great menu!

Love the Chicken Riggies at Perlo's, good size portions means Chicken Riggies for breakfast the next day. Place is usually pretty packed on Fridays and Saturdays so call ahead for a reservation. Service is good. If there's a down side it's their extremely small and limited wine list.

Lemoncello's has become one of our favorite restaurants! The chicken lemoncello is to die for as is their lemoncello salad dressing - which you can buy to take home! They are currently expanding their outdoor patio which is a great place to dine during the summer. You can't go wrong here!
