Patron Saint

Unfortunately many of the lower reviews mirrored our experience. Shockingly disappointed with this restaurant. The atmosphere is great, elegant decor (the trees are cool!) and beautiful bar. Until you get to the bathroom where you are basically trying to find your way in the dark because they took dim lit aesthetic to another level. Our reservation granted us a table quickly; however, we then waited over an hour before being served without our server checking on us once. When our food finally came, the presentation was beautiful, but the flavors were shockingly underwhelming and incredibly small. There was not a plate on the table that wasnt lukewarm or down right cold. The portion sizes were way too small even by fine dining standards. $40 for two scallops about the size of a quarter? I ordered the duck and the waitress advised that the chef recommends medium rare, I requested medium, and it came out very rare..and cold. The cocktails were the only thing we weren't disappointed in. I dont mind paying premium prices for exceptional food, but for what they charge they fell short. If you are looking for mediocre cold dishes and sluggish uninterested service for over $100 a person, here's your spot. Our entire party felt cheated out of a finer dining experience.

It was my birthday dinner with my husband. Making reservations was very easy and, when I had a particular seat preference I called and they were very accommodating. We were greeted very warmly by the hostess station and seated immediately. Our first server was Alexis who had an incredible smile and made you feel welcomed. She got our drinks and then we met our second server, Brandon, who brought our menus and told of the days specials. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I started out with the French Onion Soup which was one of the best that I have had in a while. This soup was a nice blend of lightly salted broth, onions, Sourdough crostini on the bottom with Guyere cheese melted on top. My husband is picky about fish so he had the Chilean Sea Bass. He said it was very delicious and wished there was a larger portion. I had the 6 oz Filet Mignon, medium well. It was tender and seasoned well. We shared the nights side special which was the Roasted Acorn Squash with cinnamon and a butter sauce. For dessert, I had the White Chocolate Budino, an Italian Mousse. It is a beautiful restaurant decorated with a dark green interior. You might think it's dark but surprisingly it is not. It is a thoughtfully well lit and accessorized restaurant. It has a large main dining room with a tree in the middle! I loved that. There's also a second dining area separated by a glass wine room. The bar area is large with bar seating or table seating along the wall of the bar. I loved the floral wall in the bar area as well. I had an amazing birthday because of this restaurant. Thank you!😁

The atmosphere was lovely and the service was attentive and kind throughout. The beef tartare, salad, and pasta were all delicious and well-prepared. The only disappointment was the steak — the crust tasted burnt rather than smoky, and it lacked the tenderness I expected from a medium-rare cut at this price point. Overall, still a great dining experience.

To start, the drinks were excellent. Everyone at our table loved their cocktails and mocktails, and the Manhattans were some of the best we have had. We were a party of 11 and were seated immediately with a reservation, which was great. The food was just okay. The short rib was far too salty. One of the 6 oz filet mignons that was ordered medium rare came out rare with a cold center. The Steak Diane Risotto was requested pink, but only a few pieces were pink while the rest were cooked well done. The waitstaff also never checked in on the food, which was surprising at a steakhouse at this price point. I am used to NYC restaurants, and the pricing here is comparable to the city, but the food quality and service are not. At this level of execution, the restaurant would not have survived in NYC. On the positive side, the other steaks, sides and the fish dishes at our table were cooked correctly, and the baked creamed spinach was a standout. The dining room is elegant, but it gets very loud and can be hard to hold a conversation. The bathroom is nicely decorated, though the soap felt cheap, and I expected hand lotion in the women's room for a restaurant where the cost is around 100 dollars per person. Overall, I would come back for drinks when I am in town because the bar was truly excellent, but probably not for the food again.

Patron Saint is a wonderful edition to the Rochester lineup of great restaurants. The decor, the food, the vibe, and the drinks were all great. We went here with friends to celebrate a birthday and we ordered several apps, entrees, desserts and cocktails. They were all great. A few of the cocktails were weird, but everything was really well done. We will definitely be back.

The best selection to enjoy of a remarkable food without undispulable comparicion in Rochester Downtown Area. The service it so exceptional that u will travel to a different dimentional word of taste.

Phenomenal. From the hosts to the service to the food and kitchen staff and especially the manager Sohaib who spent a lot of time talking with everything was exceptional. Prices are more than fair for what you get. The best steakhouse in Rochester.

Beautiful downtown space with an elevated old school steakhouse vibe. Food was impeccable and the staff were well trained. Highly recommend for a memorable meal and a pleasant atmosphere.

Patron Saint was an experience! The restaurant is stunning! Its designed well, and definitely photo worthy. The food stands up the to the pricing. The appetizers, the sides and the entrees, from onion rings to the steaks, every item on the menu was a win from everyone at our table. The cocktail menu is exciting, and the drinks are well balanced. Even the free bread (from amazing grains) is truly memorable. The brussels sprouts are a must try as is the soothsayer if youre having a cocktail. Make sure to order the crab cakes too! You really cant go wrong.

When you only get a select few days of re-exploring your hometown per year, ya gotta do it up big! Enter: Patron Saint. I've heard about this new(ish) spot from many a friend and family member, and was impressed by the level of service, style, menu, and cocktails. My girlfriend and I opted for girl dinner and drinks at the bar - this is the perfect place for such an evening. I went with a truly stellar, herbaceous cocktail with tequila to get things started. After some time, we ordered the chilled shrimp, wedge salad, and a side of fries. I really cannot recommend this course of action enough. While I look forward to going back for a proper seated dinner, I honestly would order every single one of these dishes again. I went on what the bar staff called "their quietest night since opening" and have to say, the vibes were still fun and vibrant. There's complimentary valet but I also found easy parking right out front. As someone who will always and forever go hard for ROC's food and beverage scene, it really makes me happy to see this kind of investment happening in the heart of downtown. As the center of the city continues to evolve and change, it's nice to have concrete examples to give the "downtown Rochester is dead" hater crowd. More of this! More of everything for Rochester! Thank you for the fab experience, PS.

Our server was great! She was very knowledgeable and personable. The ambiance was also really nice - very classy. There is a big fake tree in the middle of the restaurant that looks real (I had to ask our server if it was). The benches are all green velvet, which is very cool! Our food was good. My husband got a steak and said it was cooked perfectly. I got the risotto and it was good, but almost too rich. I would come here again for a special occasion.

The food was so good. And the service was outstanding. I wish I could remember our waiters name because he was very attentive. On a random side note the oyster came with the cutest little bottles of Tabasco.

I love the ambiance and design. The location is great, at the heart of downtown with the view of Parcel 5. Their service was great. Food was average but a little pricey. The portion could be a little more.

I went to Patron Saint for my birthday in December and left disappointed. I waited to write this review, but two months later, I still feel the same. Pros: - Beautiful ambiance--the tree and dark green velvet seating were nice touches. - Food was great. - Wine was good but pricey (cheapest bottle was around $75). Cons: Despite a 7:30 PM reservation booked a month in advance; we weren't seated until 8:20pm. Our appetizers arrived at 9:14 PM (timestamped from my pictures), and we didn't get our entrées until three hours into dinner. Meanwhile, friends at the bar (who arrived after us) had drinks and apps and finished before we even got our starters. Service was chaotic, likely because they prioritized a large private party. Given that SCN Hospitality owns this place, they should know how to staff properly, especially during the holidays. Even with comped apps and desserts, our bill for four people was over $300. The food was great, but the service was a disaster. I wouldn't return unless it's a weekday in the off-season--hopefully, they'll have things figured out by then.

We attended the RCR cocktail pairing dinner at Patron Saints and it was phenomenal. Once again, decor is just beautiful. Service was amazing, food was delicious, and whiskey cocktail pairings were top tier! Wonderful time indeed!

We loved Patron Saint. The decor is beautiful. Everything from the food to the drinks was amazing. Our friend said the fish was one of the best meals she's ever had. Service was friendly & attentive. Would love to go back if we're in the area.

Went on a busy night before a comedy show at the nearby arena. Food was excellent and I'm still dreaming of the Mac and cheese side. Service was great - we got someone else's drinks but it was quickly rectified and given how busy it's easily overlooked. The ambience in the restaurant was very modern and sophisticated. It would be a great place for a date night or a celebration dinner / drinks with friends. The only downfall was the fire alarm went off for at least 15 minutes until the firefighters showed up and it was unbelievably loud so we had to step outside for a bit. We were just surprised they didn't offer anything for the inconvenience but on the other hand it's not their fault (apparently someone had tried to vape in the bathroom) Overall would definitely recommend and return.

We enjoyed a great meal at patron saint! Love the ambiance and the emerald green everywhere. Feels very trendy and modern. The waitstaff were helpful and very attentive, 5 stars to them! We enjoyed the escargot, a bone in ribeye, creamed spinach, carrots and potatoes gratin. Loved it all!

First time at this relatively new restaurant. Parking is easy, use the old midtown garage and get a parking voucher when you leave. Everything works well, the hostess was very accommodating and the wait staff was excellent. Our server made some great suggestions and was very attentive. The pace of the meal was great and the courses were very well timed. Cocktails were very well made and very elegantly served in antique glasses? The shrimp cocktail is massive and cooked to perfection. Our steaks were perfect as I was hoping for. We split a chopped salad which was a good idea since it was so big. The side dish of roasted carrots was unbelievable. Not sure how they get carrots to be that good! All portions were generous. I wanted to take pics of everything but I didn't. We will come back, definitely. Well done Patron Saint staff!

Upscale ambience, delicious cocktails and food hit the spot. MVPs of the night were the scallops appetizers and the salmon entree. Definitely recommend this place for date night, a celebration or just a fun night with friends.

For my anniversary I wanted to try out Patron Saint. I was unable to get a table reservation but still figured we'd stop by for a drink and appetizer at the bar to check out the ambience before going somewhere else for dinner. They had valet which was a plus to not stress over parking. We sat at the bar and were blown away by the aesthetic and the service. We ended up staying for dinner at the bar because we were having such a fabulous time. The acoustics were still intimate and romantic which was excellent as some bars are too noisy with chatter and music. We were served drinks and food by Darien & Greg who were incredible! Both attentive, charming, and knowledgeable about the restaurant , origins, and food/drinks. I ordered oysters, beef tartare, caviar (my first time trying!), and live maine lobster. Everything was top tier. My boyfriend ordered the special Kansas City strip steak with a side of potatoes au gratin and the heirloom carrots. We finished with crème brûlée and a key lime dessert. I was apprehensive to try a new restaurant out for such a big date night, but would HIGHLY recommend to those like me who research and Yelp prior to jumping in. It is expensive, but well worth it. We cannot stop raving about our time here. My boyfriend travels for work and eats out a lot at steakhouses, he said his steak was top #1 or #2 he has EVER had. For drinks, we enjoyed everything we tried. The espresso martini & MILK cab sauv were very good. I didn't take many photos of my food since my phone was put away but got some pics of the atmosphere. My photos look dark but it isn't that dark in there with the big windows, it is romantic lighting and comfortable. Try it out, you won't be disappointed. This will be our new date night spot! Thanks again Darien & Greg!

This was my third visit to this special dining venue...the main dining area has a atmosphere of sophistication...everything that was ordered was thoroughly enjoyed...the service couldn't be better Cannot wait to go back!

While looking for a place to have a celebratory dinner, I stumbled upon Patron Saint. A new steakhouse located in Downtown Rochester in the Tower 280 at Midtown complex. This upscale location was the perfect setting for this art-deco inspired steakhouse. Upon entering you are greeted by a warm, dim atmosphere with sumptuous greens and accents of brass. This theme continues throughout the entire restaurant with a truly cohesive design and beautiful tile work throughout. However, the ambience is just one part of the dining experience, so, how was the food? Well, to reduce the culinary aspects to one word would not do Patron Saint justice. The culinary team works magic in the kitchen to create rich flavors that exceed the standards of an upscale dining experience. The steak was cooked exactly as ordered, had a ton of marbled flavor without large fatty pieces, and was sealed in the perfect crust. The Mac and cheese used a modified radiatori noodle to create a texture to match the sharp flavors of the cheddar. The wedge salad was fresh and crisp, and had that classic flavor you expect. I will say, the culinary team is a little heavy handed on the aromatics, but not to a point that the food was bad. This is just something I wanted to note, despite the fact that no one in my party saw it as a negative. Amongst the eight of us dining that evening, I never heard a single complaint. Our waitress (Laura) was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating. The entire experience is exactly what you expect from an upscale steakhouse where the ambiance, food, and service combine to create an unforgettable evening with delicious food.

This place is stunning. The ambience is really nice. The steak I ordered was cooked to perfection. The "puréed potatoes" (mashed) were yummy. Server was decently attentive throughout the night. The crispy potato looks cool but wasn't very good. It lacked flavor and tasted over cooked. We left about half of it because it just wasn't good. For the prices here that was a little disappointment. But overall would recommend this place and go back.

I'll have to try it again... I don't want to do a 2 because that would be harsh, but some features felt cheap compared to what is marketed online. This was obvious to our part of 3 immediately. (From Buffalo) Hostess, bartender(s), and server we got a last minute high table at were on it. Loves it. Back to the meh, immediately we peaked at the menu and were NOT impressed. We just popped over from Branca Midtown from dinner. I was anticipating better. Including the wine list. I'm not a very off the menu cocktail guy, typically I'll order classics, or give advanced parts to a bartender (lol). This was just not the place. Crowd was what I expected, but not overly trendy. Idk. I WILL come back to make this a four. Just felt very underwhelmed by the

The perfect, if pricey, fusion of excellent and meticulously prepared food, warm and engaging service, and gorgeous and elegant, if boisterous, ambiance. Went there for the first time with my wife on the recommendation of a good friend. This is a typical hot new restaurant, we could tell when we called for reservations that it was 'jumping' as the background noise was so loud we could barely make a reservation, which is absolutely mandatory. We had Wagyu strip steak, Dover sole, and risotto, which we split as a side. Everything is a la carte here. The Wagyu was well prepared and a nice portion size for the price. I got fancy and ordered black truffle shavings for the top, which added nothing to the meal except $10. I'm not a truffle guy I guess. My wife's Dover sole was exquisitely prepared, served table-side with surgical precision. Somehow this fish surgeon extracted the endoskeleton with such skill that my wife could enjoy freshly prepared whole fish (nice portion) minus any bones. We split the squash risotto, which was delicious, a symphony of ingredients. The overall palate of these dishes was sophisticated over spicy. Since my wife isn't a big fan of spicy, this suited her well. In the drinks department, we enjoyed a pleasant enough glass of rose and I sampled some Nc'nean single malt, which was delicious. Scotch lovers, beyond this treat, the single malt selection is quite banal; standard Macallan, Glenfiddich, a Benriach, and the aforementioned Mc'nean. If they're hiding other bottles, it's a mystery to me. Dessert, because we had to, was an airy slice of mousse cake with various accoutrements that was light and a delicious way to end what was really a wonderful meal. Ali, our server, was warm and engaging and extremely helpful, as was her assistant and everyone else who helped out (including our fish surgeon). The ambiance was sophisticated but boisterous. This is not a place for a quiet dinner. It is a place to get caught up in a swirl of happy energy while vicariously enjoying the pleasure others experience being here. Well done and we have a new downtown Rochester destination which is superior to our previous excuse to venture from the suburbs, the departed Morton's, which, on its best night, was not as good as Patron Saint. Finally, in all this praise, I would be remiss if I didn't mention that all this came at a substantial price, almost $300 with tip for dinner for two. That said, you get what you pay for.

My husband and I had an amazing night at Patron Saint with friends. We got seated immediately and was greeted by a hostess with water and then our server to give us history of the restaurant and specials of the night. The food was amazing. We all got different cuts of beef, all wonderful. We got sides of brussell sprouts, mac n cheese and onion rings to share. We also shared a salad, scallop appetizer and crab cakes to start. Cocktails were creative and delicious as well. Our server was wonderful as well and did not feel rushed at all. I highly recommend for a special night out.

New steakhouse in the heart of downtown Rochester. Beautiful decor with a very high end ambiance. Menu is excellent and offers a wide range of entrees, ditto their wine list.

The food was amazing. The atmosphere was confusing and the prices were outrageous. Also the service made us feel like we were a nuisance. God for no we asked for anything ! We are not pick people but for those prices make feel special. Not an inconvenience .

Absolutely love the roasted carrots. The bartenders are all friendly and the space is very comfortable. There's free valet so no excuse not to go! Can't recommend Lexi and the Monday crew enough

First of all, let me say this restaurant is absolutely beautiful inside and the staff we encountered at the host/hostess desk were very pleasant. Myself and two girlfriends made a Vday reservation over a month in advance; we had been looking forward to checking them out since they opened. Although we ate somewhere else that night, we booked a table in the lounge intending on having drinks and dessert there after dinner. We arrived a couple mins early and were told our table would be ready soon, that they were essentially waiting for a table to leave. We stood around and were apologized to a couple times, but ultimately ended up waiting about 30 mins to finally be seated. Again, staff was nice and one of the ladies offered us a menu to look at while we waited. (Also there are only two little benches in the front area and while cute, they are hard and uncomfortable so that also made for a not so fun wait). I understand it was a holiday so it was a busy night, but I'm not sure if waiting that long for a reservation was a one-off for them or a sign of a system that needs some tweaking. Although we waited longer than we liked, we still decided to sit down and order. Only we never got the chance, because we sat at our table for about 10 mins and no one came over. I would think that after already waiting 30 mins to be seated there would be some small sense of urgency to serve us, but unfortunately that wasn't the case. At that point we decided to just leave - who knows how long it even took staff to realize we had left, because there was no one around the front of the restaurant when we walked out. Overall disappointed that we didn't get to experience a better side of this restaurant. I'm always leery of places full of trendy decor but lacking in service and customer experience. Will possibly try them again on a regular night.

Beautiful restaurant with good cocktails. However, the last thing we expected at this high end steak house was to have to send one of our steaks back due to it being overcooked. The manager apologized and offered a small plate on the house while we waited, which is nice but made the rest of the dinner awkward since some of us had our meal. The food was good but not exceptional (sides were creamed spinach and potatoes au gratin). We were really looking forward to this restaurant and it was a disappointment so not sure we would go back for dinner.

The 30 day aged wagyu was really well prepared, added the bacon butter sauce. The oysters was also amazing. Good service and vibe.

Wonderful experience! Service was top notch, loved the interior. We started at the bar - service and drinks were great. Went to the dining room for dinner. For a starter we had the north country bacon & savory egg custard. For dinner we had the hasselback potatoes, smoked heirloom carrot, delmonico & filet. Everything was delicious, can't wait to come back!

The space is absolutely stunning, and the food was delicious. Also great service we called on Friday to see if we could get a table for sold out dinner service on Monday and we were accommodated. For a steakhouse the prices were really reasonable, but everything is all a la carte and you only get one sauce included with the steak (additional sauces are $3) which kind of stinks. Perfect spot for a special occasion though and I will definitely be back!

10/10! Rochester desperately needed a killer steakhouse. The service, Laura & Alyssa were incredible. Between the Waygu, Escargot, Bone marrow, all amazing.

Upscale restaurant with great ambiance food and drinks! Will definitely return again Patron Saint is a VIBE

This restaurant literally made my girlfriend and I eat our words. I was expecting a subpar meal in a very cute restaurant, but I was pleasantly surprised! The food is even better than the ambiance. Obviously the monochrome velvet green going on here is very sleek! Although I had my back facing it, the tree is also a nice focal point. For an appetizer we had the crabcake, we joked about hoping that it didn't have bones in it (we had another local spot that had BONES in their crabcakes) however, these were delicious! They came with a sauce and pickled red onions which elevated the crabcake. It was big enough to share, tasty enough to finish yourself! For dinner I had a 6oz filet mignon that had a nice seared crust, with a hollandaise sauce and a side of their golden Yukon potato purée. My girlfriend had the honeynut squash risotto. I'm really particular about texture and I have to say I really enjoyed this dish! For drinks we had the Queens Cup that had everyone watching it be constructed. We also tried The Show Pony and House Old Fashion. I definitely recommend checking this place out. I went on a Tuesday night, for my 27th birthday- which happened to be on Mardi Gras, it was pretty busy, but we had people coming to our table checking in pretty frequently. We stayed a full two hours!

Amazing! Food was great! Waitress was awesome. Atmosphere was excellent. Overall I'll be visiting again soon.

**Never Again! Hair in Food and Horrible Customer Service** ‍ If you're looking for a dining experience that leaves you with a bad taste in your mouth - and a hair or two - then look no further than Patron Saint. My recent visit was nothing short of a culinary and overall nightmare. We visited the restaurant with high hopes for a delightful dining experience, but what we encountered was appalling. ***My elderly Aunt fell on the walk way into the Resturant**** The floor was very wet and I was sliding around and almost fell a few times on my way to the table. Our appetizers arrived with a disgusting surprise--**a strand of hair right in the middle of the oxtail croquettes**. This is completely unacceptable for any establishment, let alone one that claims to be a top-tier steakhouse. The server was pleasant at first but once we notified him that we had hair in our food, he avoided us like the plague the rest of the night. To be fair, he notified the GM, Alyssa (Alissa?, not sure), and she came over to our table to apologize and offered free desserts. The food was ok but in no way justified the price, which was over $100 per person. Honorable mentions include the carrots, spinach, and bone marrow. When the meal concludes, the bill arrived. They took off the oxtail croquettes and provide desserts. This is not nearly enough for finding hair in our food as you can imagine. I asked the GM, Alyssa, to also take the drinks off the bill and she refused. This made the situation even worse because there was a **lack of adequate remedy**. This left us feeling unheard and disrespected. Valet was a complete nightmare. It is 10 degrees outside and it took way too long for the valet team to retrieve our cars. It appeared that only 1 person was working so we were standing outside for a while in extremely cold weather. We visited Patron Saint for my dad's birthday. I have been all over the world and had the privilege of have some special experiences. This by far is the worst. We were very disappointed in our experience and I would NEVER go to Patron Saint again. Save your money and your stomach--**find another place to enjoy a meal**.

The real Chef must have been off today. The pork chops were actually cooked perfectly, but the big miss was the sauce. I had an allergy and was told all of the pre-made sauces contain onion. A chef would have whipped up a chimichurri sauce in a minute or two. Took my chops home and made my own chimichurri sauce.

Very disappointing experience! Wait staff was wonderful and accommodating. Shrimp cocktail was good, wedge salad was good... the steak was definitely nothing special. Nothing I couldn't have gotten at a diner, and we paid a $10 up charge for the truffles that had zero taste! Baked potato was awful! Over baked, tough, I was barely able to cut through it and it was dried out. I was super excited to try this place for a date night, and would not return!

From the bar to the wait staff to the ambiance....this is the new place to go. Nicely decorated, more of a private seating area than other steakhouses in Rochester. Steak, sole and PS burger were excellent, and the crème brûlée, cappuccino and latte were made decaf as per request. Two helpings of Parker rolls, warm from the oven included(take note Redd Wood!) and for sides we had smoked carrots, potatoes augratin and asparagus. The salads were large enough to share. Perfect for a special occasion, or just when you want a decent meal.

The atmosphere and drinks were great, and the bartender was good. However, the food quality was just okay; the steak is better at Black n Blue, and the prices at Saint are overpriced. We were seated in the bar area, which was extremely loud. I tried it once, felt like I was donating money, and I won't be back--maybe just for a drink!

My wife and I tried this restaurant for a date night after receiving a recommendation from a friend. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Half of the restaurant is a full bar with a handful of low seats. Definitely make a reservation ahead of time. We liked the convenience of having a waiter come around to take our drink and food orders. The menu itself looked delectable and right up our alley. I'm hoping we just came on an off night, but we walked away slightly disappointed in our meals. We started with oysters and beef tartar. The oysters were delicious. The beef tartar was beautifully presented and the flavor itself was great. but the tartar was served in large chunks of which the tendon was still on and not fully cut off. It was chewy and we found ourselves pulling the tendon out of our teeth, so we ended up sending it back after a few bites. We were also recommended the tagliatelle with shaved truffles. Had the dish not been overly salted, it would've been delicious. We also split the burger, which we both loved. Ended our evening ordering the red velvet with coconut cake for dessert. The cake itself is delicious, but be forewarned, this is for coconut lovers as the flavor is strong! Overall, there are other spots in Rochester my wife and I would prefer to go back to, but would give Patron Saint another shot in the future.

The food, service and cocktails were excellent. We were greeted nicely as we entered and seated promptly. We booked the reservation a month in advance and despite the numerous empty tables in the main dining room, we were seated in a back room with two very large parties that were so loud we could not have a conversation. We were very disappointed with the ambiance.

Great experience, beginning to end! Will take advantage of the valet parking next visit, See u again soon
