Moved to Rochester last October from the west coast. What are your food recs? Not talking fancy, talking somewhere I can go and get a good pizza, burger, sandwich. Your hole in the walls, your diet cheat days, the fun stuff. Bonus point for getting spicy options.

Surprised that nobody mentioned the Hots places for Garbage/Trash/Dumpster Plates yet. It’s kind of the thing around here, and no Rochester experience is complete without them!
- Nick Taou Hots
- Empire Hots
- Webster Hots
- Henrietta Hots
- Schallers
- Fairport Hots
And like a million others!
I like to get the Cheeseburg Plate with Mac and Homefris and everything on it.
I’ve actually heard from people at work to avoid Nick Tahou’s because the quality went down and the owner is a dick? Will look into the others though!
For pizza, I love Pizza Wizard for Detroit style (which was new for me in the last year) or Mr. Shoes for a more traditional style. Joe’s Brooklyn has good NY style thin crust.
Calabresella’s has great sub, salads (pasta, potato, etc.) and desserts. Also DiBellas’s for subs.
Naan-tastic is a local Chipotle-style Indian place that I love. And for some spice, The King and I is a Thai place that can make some dishes that knock your socks off (if you convince them you can handle more than typical white guy spice).
