State Street Grill - City of Rochester

Staff is wonderful. Convenient onsite location, the food is well priced and delicious I eat here almost every night I stay and happy hour is from 5-7 or 4-6 I can't recall.

The restaurant could be great if they had enough staff. It's surprising that they closed on a Friday at 6 PM. They also had a no-show on Thursday night. Additionally, I wouldn't recommend staying at this Holiday Inn until the downtown Rochester construction is finished. There’s only one functioning elevator, which feels a bit unreliable, while the other one is clearly out of service. It doesn't always reach the upper floors.

I had a really disappointing experience at this restaurant. Despite there being only two tables occupied, we had to wait in line. After finally being seated, we waited 20 minutes just for a waitress to take our drink order, but still received no service. The room itself was acceptable, but I found a long hair in the sink that definitely wasn't mine! Thankfully, the room was free, but I would strongly recommend not wasting your time or money here.

This restaurant is situated within the Holiday Inn Downtown Rochester. It only serves dinner, and while the menu isn't extensive, I actually found that makes decision-making easier. The food was delicious, and there's also a bar. The staff was friendly, and our meals arrived promptly. I highly recommend it!

When I visit Rochester for business trips, I typically stay at the Rochester Plaza Hotel (now a Holiday Inn), and I appreciate this restaurant's convenient location nearby.
