Nice Americana food. The blue cheese fritters were a nice combination. The steaks were prepared nicely. Good choices in beverage options. Dessert was only OK. But they had great presentation.

The food was delicious, didn’t take a very long time, and wasn’t extravagantly expensive. The service was prompt and polite (thanks, Hannah!) If I lived in the area, I’d be a frequent guest.

Delicious and reasonably priced. Try the roasted beets with horseradish, it’s great! The squash ravioli was also very good. The chicken Wellington was great!

The smoking Martini is so so good. The food was delicious and the staff was so friendly. The drinks were so smooth and you can tell they use good alcohol so the price point is worth it. The bathrooms are a little hard to find but I won’t knock off a point as a waitress noticed I was looking right away and told me how to get there. I would definitely go back again.

Always great food and customer service. A frequent hot spot to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, and just for a night out. We love this place!

The atmosphere is great. The food is ok. The prices are ridiculous. My wife and I were given a $50 gift card. We had a very basic dinner and we still ended up paying about $15 of our own money before tip. It was a nice date though

The space is kinda dark and may be a great place for a romantic evening. Seemed really quiet for a Wednesday evening. The tomato basil soup was thick and a bit sweet for my taste (reminded me of a bbq sauce) but well seasoned and served with crispy croutons. The offered bread was chewy and warm with a crisp crust, and a nice flavor. My entrée, Frutti di Mare Alfredo, was a very generous portion, attractively presented, and very satisfying. The server, Ryan, is pleasant and helpful and the price was fair. Overall 300 First is worth a visit.

The food and cocktails are good, but not especially noteworthy or imaginative. Service wasn’t very good considering how not busy they were, staff wasn’t always friendly. My biggest issue, if I’m being honest, is the price. My wife and I have pretty consistent patterns when we go out to eat, and the food and cocktails here are overpriced and it adds up quickly. For the same price of a night out here, you could be enjoying other better restaurants nearby with better service, beverages, and dishes.

We dined here while visiting Rochester for medical care. From the outside, you wouldn’t know it’s a renovated warehouse-type building. The atmosphere was quiet and conducive to conversation. The service was excellent on the evening we were there. The restaurant was not busy. My dining companions had the salmon, cordon bleu Wellington and the kabobs. They all said their dinners were good. My butternut squash ravioli was delicious. We also had appetizer onion rings, and I had a house salad which was very good. The ambiance would be reason to visit 300 First. The food and service were bonuses.

Expensive but wonderful atmosphere and food. This was my most expensive meal in quite some time, but the food was delicious. The cabbage chorizo rolls had some nice zing to them with the sauce, although the were more like Mexican egg rolls. The salmon with apple glaze was delicious, with just the right portion size. My friend got the swordfish and really enjoyed it.
