Agatina's: Authentic Italian Cuisine in Rochester

This is a year and a half too late, but was just reminiscing about our wedding day. We decided to “elope” and had our small reception with our close family here afterwards. The staff was incredibly helpful, from planning to executing! Food was amazing as always, with vegetarian/vegan/GF options for my family’s dietary restrictions. This will be our anniversary spot for years to come. Thank you for a wonderful experience for not only just dining here on date nights, but the most wonderful night of my life!

Our family has used Agatina’s for the past two years on Christmas Eve for catering our friends and family party. Rave reviews for all of the food! We chose the homemade meatballs (there were 20 and because they are so large we cut them in half and they were perfect for all of our guests!), chicken french bites, gnocchi, bacon wrapped scallops, chicken pastina soup, calamari, and rolls. Since the restaurant wasn’t open on December 24, we picked up the food cold on the 23rd and the restaurant provided reheating instructions for each dish. Food came out wonderful and our guests loved the selection!

Dinner with cousins!! Life is short and special invitations to dinner don’t happen all that often. I am an East side girl and haven’t gone to Agatina’s in quite some time. I was happy to be back. The chicken pastina soup had great flavor. The bread was hot. The portions were huge. The gnocchis were melt in your mouth and the sauce is amazing.The peanut butter pie had lots of whole peanuts. All of the desserts were awesome and everyone was happy to have leftovers to enjoy again. Our corner, round table was the perfect spot to share and enjoy a wonderful conversation about family memories. I hope your visit here is as enjoyable as mine was!

Every time I come here I have an excellent meal. Hard to beat for authentic Italian cuisine. Beans and greens are delicious! The wait staff is highly trained and extremely accommodating. Highly recommend this restaurant.

I've been visiting Agatina's for over 30 years. I was disappointed about five years ago when the quality of everything dipped. I didn't go back until now and was pleasantly surprised. The space looked updated, and the food was back to its original deliciousness. The service was great, and we enjoyed ourselves. I had Shrimp fra Diavlo with white sauce. I wish I had asked for medium or high heat, however, the pasta was quite flavorful. We also had calamari, and it was the best I have had in quite some time. I had a drink called Rochester Storm and it was pretty tasty. I'm giving Agatina's 9/10.

We had a rehearsal dinner party here. 25 people. They have a back room area sectioned off that kept your group together. 3 sections of long rectangle tables and a small table for gifts if needed. We had 8 people seated comfortably, one table with 9. The food and drinks kept flowing. Food was delicious. All left overs were wrapped and set aside for take home. Lots of wait staff and they took great care of us. They have a party menu package I picked the food a head of time. This is a great choice for a small party.

My first time dining here, and I can see why my family raves about it! Got a very late reservation due to our procrastination, but the service was still friendly and attentive. My friend ordered the shrimp fra Diavlo in red, which the kitchen will make to your heat specification (it also comes in a white version for those that prefer. I ordered the eggplant parm with angel hair. Both came with soup or salad (though I forgot to grab a picture of them). House made Italian dressing for him, seafood bisque for me (for a small upcharge, totally worth it! ). Both were delicious! Fresh, warm, bread offered throughout the meal. Portions were huge! Mine enough for 2 more meals at home. I'm sad we didn't leave enough room for dessert, but certainly will the next time! Everything was great, and it made an otherwise blah Thursday night turn out wonderful! Thanks so much for your hospitality and delicious food...I'll definitely be back!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hands down the best Italian food we’ve ever had and most memorable meal in quite sometime. We recently ordered takeout for four and were blown away. Not only was everything incredible, but the portions were unbelievable — easily 10 meals worth of food. We actually looked forward to eating the leftovers, which says a lot! This is the first time we’ve tried this restaurant, even though we live close by, and our only regret is not discovering it sooner. This will absolutely be a new staple for us, and we already plan to use them for gatherings with friends and family. What we loved: Gnocchi – melt-in-your-mouth perfection Fettuccine Alfredo – creamy, rich, and exactly what Alfredo should be. Bliss and my favorite! Penne with sauce – perfect balance of flavor Meatballs – the best I’ve ever had, topped with delicious creamy ricotta cheese sauce Chicken French with greens – tender, flavorful, and beautifully prepared Salad – the dressing alone is worth mentioning Cannoli – the perfect sweet finish If you’re looking for delicious Italian food with incredible value, look no further. We can’t wait to order again!
