Best Romantic Restaurants in Penfield

It’s twice now that we have been at Next Door to explore the newly designed menu; and it’s twice that we have been absolutely delighted by the food, service, and overall experience. The first time was in November where our server Alex help guide us through the new menu choices; deftly helping us select the right items (we are a little picky when it comes to seafood). Tonight we had the joy of having Laura as our server. She help us to explore different aspects of the menu and specifically helped us pair our beverage selections to the food (especially the Chardonnay which I have come back to loving because of Next Doors lightly oaked options). The overall culinary experience was exquisite. Give their new menu a try. You won’t regret it.

Dinner for 2 on a Friday night at Amore was excellent. Our server Jordyn took very good care of us throughout our time at Amore. Started with an Italian Old Fashioned and the Fried Calamari, both were perfect. It's real easy to screw up calamari and these were very delicate and served with greens and deep fried Peppadews. We chose the Chicken Cutlet and Herbed Risotto special, again excellent. We live in downtown Rochester and Amore is just a 5 minute drive which is great, especially during the winter. Highly recommended.

Wonderful food. The atmosphere is great in the bar area and the first room upstairs.

Service great..food was awesome server was awesome

This was the best dining experience we have had in a long time. Everything was delicious, perfectly cooked and presented, and the service was impeccable. It is rare for a party of 7, ranging in age from 10 to 75, to be so pleased with every single dish. (We had two kinds of steak, lamb, duck, salmon, calamari, truffle fries, Brussels sprouts, and Caesar salad. Unfortunately we were too stuffed to try dessert.) We also appreciated that the noise level was low enough that we could converse without shouting. Compliments to the chef, servers, and all the staff! We will return and recommend highly to others.
