Social Profile:

Cotoletta is the culmination of a decades-long friendship between Rochester Real Estate Developer Jay W. and Executive Chef Jay Speranza. ‍ Compelled by their love of Rochester’s old school delis, pizza shops and eateries, the Jays dreamed up a little joint that could serve as an ode to the city’s rich Italian culture and history. Cotoletta, meaning cutlet in Italian, is a subtle dive into Rochester’s yesteryears. Complete with faux wood paneled walls, flickering old neon, and enough laminate and pleather to worry the EPA, Cotoletta feels as comfy as your Nonna’s old basement rec room. So grab a pie, a sangwich, a cannoli, and a drink and fuhgeddabout life for a little while. Welcome to Cotoletta.

Hands down my favorite restaurant on the west side. Food is incredible, service is wonderful and so friendly and the ambiance is the best.

I cannot speak to the atmosphere or service as this was an online order but as far as quality/portion I’m flabbergasted. This is the smallest wedge salad I have ever seen. It is about an inch thick slice of iceberg lettuce for $16. I understand times are tough & things are expensive but this salad is cheap to make. This is robbery.

We really enjoyed the sandwiches and fries, the ingredients were so fresh tasting and the flavor combinations so interesting and delicious. I can’t wait to come back to try more! They were quite busy when we went, which was expected, on a Wednesday evening so it was loud and the background music was loud. I would like to try the outdoor seating in the warmer months. The service was decent. The decor is so fun.

Decor is on point. Service is counter order then sit with a number. Food was good, but didn’t blow me away. What got me though is the hidden charges. Charged $15 for sandwich that was supposed to be $13 on the menu. Some kind of $2 up charge because we shared it? Also, there is another up charge (3.5%) if you pay by card and not cash. Just seemed very penny pinching and cheapskate to me. Maybe they are struggling to pay their bills? I’m not sure what that’s about. Not a good look to an otherwise pleasant experience

Came and sat with Alicia to preorder food for my office. Made a catering order for 100 people. Scott and the kitchen crew did an amazing job. The food came out amazing and really reasonably priced. Chicken Parm and Chicken French were still together and did not separate so that was really good because the portion I ordered. Pasta was perfectly cooked and well flavored on the sauce. I also had the Italian wedding soup that day and it was amazing. I go there for the lunch and dinner and they always go above and beyond. Jacque and Alyssa is always attentive when I’m there. Just wanna say thank you to the staff for an amazing job and that’s why I keep coming back. Kudos to you guys!

It won’t let me do halves so 4 it is instead of 3.5 stars.The atmosphere itself and the way you order is strange. They try for a more upscale feel but I can’t help but compare it to Tom Wahls as you order before sitting. Decor fits the style. The mozzarella sticks were tasty HOWEVER $15 is quite outrageous for 2 of them. The pizzas were great size and good but the crust lacked some seasoning to give taste to the final few bites of each piece. Overall $70 for 2 people doesn’t fit the food or the location. Wouldn’t go out of my way to try again but for locals it’s a change of pace. EDIT: The food has diminished in quality unfortunately, the pizza was a bit over done, sauces are different yet prices are same if not a bit higher. The change was not for the better sadly.

Food is delicious. I love the mozzarella sticks and meatballs.

2 years later update: Saturday Eve and it wasn’t busy. Drinks and meatballs on point. I didn’t recognize any of the employees. We ordered the special, chicken French for $24 and sauce and breading were amazing but chicken was tough. I’m assuming overcooked or prepared in advance. I asked if we could exchange it for the mozzarella sticks which have always been a winner. They came out overcooked and without presto. Very inconsistent from what I’ve had in the past. Didn’t want to mention at that point. Used to be my go to restaurant.

I called and ordered take out an hour before close. The person taking my order was great and when I walked in, the atmosphere felt very welcoming. The food however was subpar. I ate half before posting the picture but the cutlet was a bit overcooked and dry. The prosciutto was nice and crispy but the sandwich was just very dry. The breading on the cutlet didn’t have much flavor and the bread was pretty hard. Overall, I don’t think it was worth the money and I could make it better at home.
