Rella - Rochester

Absolutely incredible. We got nearly everything on the menu (sharing with the table) and every dish was better than the last. Seriously fabulous and ???? worth the wait! We almost never leave reviews. It's that good.

A fun, very small place that offers a casual vibe with freshly prepared food. It's good, even very good, just not as extraordinary as perhaps we'd been built up to expect. Oysters were very good, smoked salmon plate was outstanding, chilled pasta with lobster seemed to skimp on the lobster, and the mussels were a mixed result, with the mussels themselves a little mealy and fishy, while the broth was wonderful. The service was delightful and I'd go back, just with lowered expectations next time around.

This is a masterful chef experience. You can chef watch talk to a neighbor and enjoy some of the best food rochester, or even the new england area has to offer.

Great food, great wine, great atmosphere, intimate and fun.Our consistent favorite place in Rochester, highly highly recommend!

I brought my wife to Rella for her birthday tonight. Everything was excellent including the service. If you want to know what a really good chowder tastes like, include that in your order (New Englanders welcome). Same goes for the Caesar salad. It's KILLER! The oysters are fresh and sweet. Order a bunch of stuff and share it. It's really good food.
