I'm hoping someone here might be in the Rochester area?
My grandmother is from Rochester and my extended family is going there for her memorial service next month though no one in our family currently lives there. I am nervous because my kids and my two nieces are too young to be vaccinated, and we are not willing to eat in a regular, open air restaurant due to their COVID risk. I also am currently requiring a gluten free and dairy free diet, and my 3 year old niece is a picky eater (even if they just let her bring a peanut butter sandwich we would be set if they can't accommodate).
I'm hoping to find a restaurant with a private dining room that could take care of our group of 16 or 17? We could do a patio, but I worry about a back up plan if the weather is bad. All the adults are fully vaccinated. We are staying near 390 and Jefferson Road. More upscale is fine pending they can make something simple for the picky niece!

Iβm sorry for your loss. Unfortunately, I donβt know that area well.
But since I read the post, I did want to say that most (if not all) restaurants will look the other way if you want to feed the 3 year old a sandwich. We always brought backup food for our very picky, underweight (at the time) DD and it didnβt stop me and H from eating out at the nicer places we enjoyed. Donβt feel like you need to plan around a 3-year-old!

It occurred to me that there is a company in our town called βvisit city nameβ that helps people plan conferences. I wondered if they had one there, and they do! They have a full chart of restaurants - including if they have a private room, gluten free options and kids menu. Jackpot!!
Iβm from the area, if you want any opinions on some places that you found or any other specifics on the area let me know.
Thank you! My parents will be there for a wedding this weekend and will be checking it out from the list. Iβll let you know. My dadβs siblings are quite opinionated so Iβll probably have little say, but the list should get them at least on the right track.
