"Tavern 58 is such a gem in downtown Rochester and the food is always so great (spicy ahi tuna cooked medium rare-yum) and the wait staff knows and/or asks if their customers are going to a show (which we were). Saturday evening the restaurant was very crowded so we were glad to have made our reservations through Open Table and we were seated immediately. Our server, Alysia was attentive, although it did take quited a while to get our entrees. As I said the food is outstanding and I hope Tavern 58 continues great success for many years to come."

"Tavern58 makes everything in house - from the bread to the condiments to the ice cream.
I had the bison burger and my husband had a steak. We both asked for our meat to be cooked medium. It was delivered more rare than medium, so next time we'll ask for medium well done."

"Usually one of my favorite places to go. Took a friend for the 1st time and our meals were served lukewarm. My friend had the talapia special and was clearly disappointed. I hope she will give it a second chance."

"This restaurant is our new favorite! The food is phenomenal especially the steak. My husband is very picky about his steak and Tavern 58 prepares it beyond his expectation. How I would describe the food is: When you put a mouthfull of food in your mouth it is like an incredibly wonderful taste and texture. I had seafood mix this time and scallops last time and both times it was delicious."

"My first visit. The waitress was personable and appropriately attentive. I had the pork tenderloin special and it was spectacular- melt in your mouth delicious. i never finish my dinners when I go out but I had to make an exception here. My one disappointment was the noise level- which seemed excesive."
