You could live your entire life in Rochester and not make it to all the Italian restaurants. We thought it would be fun to document a few but we need help! Let us know what your favorite Italian restaurant is.

SEND US your review of Italian restaurants in the Rochester area and we will post them here.

John Tieri plays accordion at many Italian restaurants around town.

The newest reviews are Paulino's downtown, Fioravanti's near the lake in Sea Breeze and Bellanca's down on the lake in Charlotte. And there is an Italian place in the old Water Street Grille space that we need to get to but Vento on East Avenue is next on our list. Some of these places have gone on to Italian heaven since we reviewed them. We will have to come up with some sort of icon to denote their passing.
