My son moved up to the north side of rochester, we needed to find a good diner to go to for brunch, used to always go to Jays diner in Henrietta. Found this place on Yelp thought I would give it a try. Its smaller than Jays, but I think the food is just as good. They even have some more upscale menu items that look pretty good, I did not get a chance to try them. Our table ordered scrambled eggs buttermilk pancakes sausage and bacon. I thought the eggs had really good flavor and I thought the pancakes were pretty nice, maybe not as fluffy as a pancake house, but they were pretty good. My only complaint, I thought the bacon was too floppy and not crisp. Given that its about 5 minutes from my sons house, I suspect well be going there more. Give it a try, I think youll like it.
This is what I would call an actual greasy spoon.If you enjoy grease, it would be amazing for your dining pleasure.Unfortunately for me, Im not a fan of having my food swimming in butter and oil.I had a couple of easy over eggs, which were cooked perfectly. Undercooked bacon, and very crispy home fries. My toast was cold and butter was not melted.I almost got the feeling that some of the food was reused from a previous patron. I have no proof but it didnt look fresh, as far as the toast and potatoes were concerned.Unfortunately I have to cross this off my list of places to return to.
This place is a rip off. I ordered online. They charged me over $8 for JUST a BLT. Little to no bacon on it. I instructed I want fries as well but thats not the point. If Im paying over $8 for something It better come with fries especially if its something this tiny. Do not go here. Waste of money. And I will never be returning here.
Great food reasonable price very friendly service
This place has the lowest quality products for a high price. Eggs were terrible, ham was undercooked, hash browns burnt….it’s a disgrace that this place is called wise guys. Furthest thing from Italian cooking
My family and I had a horrible experience this morning around 8:30am. There was 5 of us seated at tables next to each other (2 and 3). When the two customers that I will mention shortly in my review came in, the owner was yelling through the restaurant to a cook about what they ordered and confirming it with the customers. She was seated 4-5 tables behind them and yelled back and forth instead of simply standing up and communicating with who she needed to. One of the people I was with thanked the server we had by saying exactly this: “thank you hunny” the OWNER took it upon herself to chat with two other patrons in the restaurant and say horrible things about my family member and “homos” in general.On top of that, the food was disgusting and our server was rude. I would never recommend ANYONE eating here.Also, the bathroom is VILE. the whole place had a bit of a gross feel to it but the bathroom will make you sick.
All the food had no seasoning. Ham was dry, burger had grease dripping off an the messed up a simple order an charged us extra. The sad thing they triple charged us. Do not go in the bathroom the smell will make you sick.Literally the worse place in rochester.
Great food and GREAT service!!!!!!! Its like walking into Cheers where everyone knows your name
Great service. Good food.
Had the opportunity to try Wise Guys food through GrubHub. I ordered the Benedict Benedict, it came with homefried potatoes. The eggs, sausage, muffins, and gravy were delicious however the home fried potatoes were completely tasteless and I would not order again or recommend!
Friendly staff and a lot of menu choices. Their breakfast menu is more expensive than similar places for the same items. I asked for hash browns well done and crunchy. It looked as if they had been soaked in oil. Took one bite of them and no more. I was hoping the waitress would have asked me why I didnt touch them, but no such luck.
Great food, great price will be back for sure
My favorite breakfast place they treat you like family
Great place to dine alone or with friends and love ones. Great atmosphere. The staff are great.
Excellent food excellent people that work there Ive always had food delivered and today was the first time I ever went to pick up food I love their service.
Confused by the high reviews, my experience very different. Establishment looks kind of dumpy inside, but its a diner and the only one open due to covid. One of 4 customers inside, waitress unfriendly, spent the entire time we were there berating and being very rude to the cook. She was relentless and loud, and was so committed to this she never came to refill coffee or check on us. Breakfast sandwich was BAD, had Zero flavor. As did the hashbrowns. I dont know how you mess up breakfast, this was a surprising first for me. I would NEVER return. The old woman that works there was the only positive, she was friendly and kind. A shame, could have been a regular as its fairly close to me.
Great food and fast service. Staff is very friendly and atmosphere fits the restaurants name.
Great food awesome people! Perfect family atmosphere super friendly Love this place!
Really good food reasonable prices friendly people.
Very good dinner to eat at excellent food

Outrageously good breakfast!!!Try the everything omelet....really well made!Bacon is thicker and better quality than most places...and the homefries... when I first saw them I thought oh great processed..);...but once you try them...hmmmm....crispy on the outside soft on the inside...uniformally cooked....very, tasty...had onions added...they were grilled perfectly as well...not soft...I highly recommend!!....I know Ill be back!
Friendly service, good food. Small portions and we were the only ones there and it took 25 minutes to get our food
Love the place and the food and the owner
Classic greasy spoon for a solid breakfast or lunch
Great service! Lou Anne is awesome! Really great food too
This place is great! Everyone is willing to talk to you and so friendly. The food is top notch and quickly comes to your table. The staff is wonderful and I endorse this place!
Wise guys dinner is awesome place to eat & enjoy.
I have never eaten at the establishment but I ordered through a Door Dash and the food was delicious. I ordered from them 2 days in a row.
Portion size is good and the atmosphere reminds me of a classic diner. Price isnt bad. Friendly staff. Remember to bring cash with you as they do not do card but that is fine for me.
Its a great small diner with an amazing breakfast. La Familia!!!
Huge portion. Great prices. The best hot chocolate in the world. Old fashion and gangster era decor very cool.
Super fast delivery via grubhub, Irish Benedict is my favorite
July 4th holiday, and one of the few restaurants open for breakfast. The owner was cooking and one of her daughters was serving. Food arrived fast and hot and my coffee cup never went dry. Food was very good. Could not believe that the two of them could give a packed restaurant good service. BUT they did.
Cozy little family diner, friendly atmosphere and satisfied my craving for a greasy spoon diner brunch! Friendly staff and good service. Great prices too. Try the breakfast sandwich on a bagel - amazing! ( Also: if you arent familiar with this neighborhood, it is in a very nice, safe area.)
Ordered food from them through grubhub and was the best food I’d ever had, it was my first time and will be my new breakfast spot from now on. The Royal Flush is amazzingggg!!!
Food is SO good!!! I ordered breakfast on Grubhub and it came PIPING hot. I also got an extra pancake, yum! Can’t wait to order again!
Breakfast for 6 at $67, cant beat that. Plus food was tasty and yummy. The omlette was great and the pancakes delicious. Highly recommended. The servers were friendly and helpful.I will stop by again without a doubt. Keep up the good work guys and ladies at WISE GUYS DINER.
We was waiting 50 min for breakfast even if the diner was not busy at all.Also, I dislike the idea to pay only with cash, and you should to use ATM to take some money off.Food was good,homemade and tasty.
The best breakfast in town.
Excellent homemade food. Friendly service. Good prices.
Good food, good services
The sweet smiley young girl makes my weekend she’s so lovely one of the only reason I come to the diner
Excellent service, good healthy food.
Menu is what you would expect from a local diner, with an interesting mobster naming scheme. Food is tasty and made quick to order.
The breakfast and lunch are good they always have specials for both. I wouldnt recommend dinner because I havent tried it. The prices are comparable to other diners
Always the best!!
Had an awesome breakfast here. The service was great.
Great plate! I cant wait to try more items on the menu! Owners are very kind and friendly.
Breakfast was generous and delicious I had a Wise guys breakfast plate ... yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyummmay
Not fancy, quaint and comfortable. Great people who make you feel welcome! Food hit the spot on the nose for both my husband and I!
Great menu, fast service. Clean and friendly . I dined alone but i didnt feel lonely

Small family owned dinner. Great food, specials, and atmosphere. Cant beat it.
Today I received a great meal, I feel in love with the fried bologna sandwich 2 eggs overhard, cheese, grilled onions or whatever way you prefer on a hard roll amazing meal! Nothing better than the service I get at Wise Guys love the food and people Family Restaurant if you dont have one yet.
Very family friendly, waitress very efficient, prices excellent, food beyond exceptional. Homefries excellent.
The next time you are at Wise Guys, you need to order a Cheeseburger with the Special Sauce! It is the best burger youll have!!I am in Myrtle Beach, SC now and cant find one that tastes as good! Maybe a road trip is in order!! :-)
Awesome service and food
We frequent Wise Guys Diner quite often. This cute little diner is our little spot to get the best eggs benedict, and of course my amazingly tasty, hearty meal of eggs, home fries, toast and bacon, and it is very easy on your wallet. We spend $25 for breakfast for two including a nice $10-ish tip and very much enjoy our breakfast, the personable staff and relaxing atmosphere.. We felt very welcomed and comfortable the second we walked in the door when we discovered this gem of an eatery. This will forever be our breakfast spot! why go anywhere else?!? 😁 Never a disappointment.
The entire restaurant smelled like a grease trap, and we left with the smell clinging to us. The food was sub-par. The service was relatively good.
Great portion size on the breakfast plate and the hot sauce was perfect amount of kick snd flvaor altogether with sunny side up eggs.
Worst breakfast I have ever had... Food is cheap, dirty restaurant, Do not waste your time and money
Menue confusing, coffee bad, slow service. Too many obnoxious signs.
Is a very nice little dinner they have very good breakfast and over all very friendly servers cant beat the prices!!!!
Cute little neighborhood diner! Great breakfast, good prices and friendly servers!
Great wait staff, delicious food and reasonable price! Just remember it is cash only.
Great place to eat, big portions of food. The owner is the greatest.

Great food, the cook makes everything great.
Went here with my son for the first time last Thursday. Waitress brought my drink to me 3/4 full then charged me $3.00 for it. I ordered an omelet with hash browns, my sun ordered a breakfast sandwich and both were disgusting. The bill came to $25.00 for 2 people for breakfast. This place is located in the our neighborhood, unfortunately we will not be returning.
Great food and conveniently located across the street from my office.
My lunch was very good and my waitress was excellent. Service was above the usual.
Some of the nicest staff ive had the pleasure to meet.
