Rochester

One of several Andiamo restaurants in the Detroit area, Andiamo Rochester offers high-quality, if slightly pricey, Italian food in a pleasant, subdued setting. Be sure to tell your server it is your first visit and you will receive a complementary risotto appetizer.

Red Knapp's is a classic diner -- a true Rochester staple -- with burgers, fries, cokes, malts, milkshakes, etc. The malts' and shakes' flavors range from chocolate to vanilla, raspberry to lime. The fries, in particular, are delicious especially the seasoned ones! This place is a must-see when visiting Rochester. The atmosphere is fun and the food is greasy and delicious!

Lipuma's Coney Island

A Rochester institution for decades, Lipuma's serves, in addition to Coneys, a large number of other hot dogs, chili, tacos, and soups. Service is friendly and familiar. In the good weather you can sit on the deck overlooking the creek. If you only eat meal in Rochester, it should be here.
