Malt Ember - Rochester

Pizza's are amazing and the beer selection is great

The waitress was great with our big group. a pizza was burned so that a new one was brought out. some of the salads had not listed all ingredients, so we had to ask.

Eating was great and the nightly specialties are also great

Service slow. the food order did not come out at the same time. table was dirty. eating was fair and too expensive. must repair concrete floor. add a new etage above the top of cracked, stained concrete. will not return.

We reserved a table for 5 at 6:00pm on a Saturday. It wasn’t busy at all, so we assumed we’d get our food quickly. Not the case. Our waitress was friendly but when we asked a question about the menu (not an allergy issue) it took her approx. 10 minutes to come back with an answer. She took our drink and food order at the same time. It took around 10 minutes to get 3 sodas, no alcohol was ordered. We waited well over 30 minutes for our food, if not closer to 40 45 minutes. Another table of 5 came in at least 20 minutes after us, and got their food before us, though they had a different waitress. When we got our food, we didn’t see the waitress again for at least 15 minutes if we needed anything else. Onto the food...1 got the Mac cheese with waffle fries, 1 got the Mac cheese with onion rings and 1 got chicken fingers and fries they all liked those meals. 1 got the strawberry goat cheese salad as a wrap with French fries. The wrap was good but there was too much dressing on it and the menu said there’d be grilled chicken in it but there was not. The last meal was a burger with vegetables. The burger was good but the vegetables tasted like grilled dirt. For 5 meal and 3 sodas (plus 5 waters) our total came to $83. Not worth the price for some average to awful tasting food. If the place was busy I could understand the long wait once we ordered, but it wasn’t busy. In the main seating area (not in the bar), There was only 4 tables occupied and the separate bar area wasn’t busy either. Very disappointing, especially for the price. We will not be back.
