We came on a Sunday night at 6 pm with a party of 12 men. Britney was our server and she was awesome. Food was hot and tasty, and large portions- everyone had a doggie bag. Don’t skip the desserts. They also were excellent. Great experience. They even had a gentleman playing and singing live music.

Went there for my daughter’s 17th birthday with family and 4 of her friends. The atmosphere was ok. I had the chicken marsala, which was good, but they skimped on the pasta. My wife had greens and beans. We both agreed that was the worst we have ever tasted. No flavor whatsoever. Like eating grass!! My daughter and her friends all had chicken parmigiana. The chicken was ok, but the sauce was way too sweet. Terrible. Also, they tacked on a $12 piece of cake for my daughter that nobody asked for. This place is way overpriced and I will not go back. There are much better options for Italian food in Rochester.

Food not the best for the price. Meatballs were hard and I tasted more breadcrumbs than meat. We had the chicken parmasan sauce was ok but average for the price. Bread was good.

One of the best Italian restaurants in Upstate NY!The food is amazing and the staff is unbelievable!. They are extremely professional while making you feel like family. The Calamari with peppers were fried to perfection and the Lamb pops melted in my mouth. The atmosphere is cozy and once inside you feel as if you've been transported to another little city.
After visiting from over year ago, I found the service to be great at the bar, yet the food was horrible! We ordered Chicken Parmigiano and the sauce contained a huge amount of sugar and wine. It was so bad that I could only take a couple of bites. I am truly disappointed ? with the changes that were made with the food.This placed is over priced and not worth the money. ?

Pane Vino On the River is absolutely delightful. The service is excellent and we loved the live music. My husband and I celebrated our anniversary here tonight and had the lobster bisque (THE BEST) shrimp scampi, and seafood risotto. The meal was entirely delectable.We will definitely be coming back!The vibes are very boujee and relaxed. The views by the river are lovely. Exposed brick and candlelight fill the atmosphere.We had a wonderful evening and are so thankful to the restaurant for our experience!

We were there for our date night. Lobster, spaghetti and crème brûlée. The staff was gracious, helpful and accomodating. Beautiful space.
Steak cooked wrong and we were a table of six, so the tip was automatic and the waitress did not care about service. She never asked how our food was just wanted to collect a tip. Everyone in our party done eating before my food arrived . The kitchen recooked the steak right but put the same cold asparagus and spinach on my plate. Once was my favorite restaurant now will not return.

Went on a Friday night for a large party reservation of 18 people. We planned the party just a few weeks ahead of the reservation and the event coordinator was very responsive and accommodating of all of our requests. It was very easy planning the menu and event.The day of, the staff serving us was friendly, helpful, able to manage the large party very well, and the food and drinks were served promptly by several others on the team. Food was delicious and served warm and fresh. Our entire group, including the guest of honor, had a really memorable evening. Would highly recommend!

I have been to Pane Vino several times. Food was always good and atmosphere great. This time was very different. I ordered the special fish dish with butternut squash risotto. It was average but the price was not! $60 for my dish! I almost fell off my chair. The service was less than attentive too. We went to the bar and the matratie was dismissive not a "" how was your meal " "thank you for coming " or most importantly Happy holidays! Merry Christmas..... nothing. He ordered his gf to leave and out the door they went...so did we. II will never go back.
