Voula's — Restaurant in City of Rochester

Volula's greek sweets is so much more than a sweets shop. It has a cafe style menu of popular greek fare with the cutest little dining area. They had many bistro tables just waiting for fine weather to allow patrons a breezy, fun place to enjoy their fare outside as well. Two diners were enjoying a meal the day we visited, and they had privacy in the seating area (it's tucked away behind the hat and merch display) and their chatter indicated they were having a great time. I saw a delicious looking gyro pass by in the hands of the server. It looked fresh and full. The way all gyros should be.

I've wanted to stop on many a time, and only discovered this little tucked away ROC gem while driving Monroe Ave. From downtown. It's easy to miss, as you can't see it as you head into downtown. Look for their smartly branded Greek evil eye sandwich board side near the sidewalk.

They had spanikopita and other hand pies, I will call them, in a warning Case ready for those in a hurry. And many delicious greek sweet treats. I was ecstatic to see the had lemon potatoes on the menu, but it was a bit of a wait for them, and I had no extra time to spare that day. But I will go back and give them a try.

They have gluten free and vegan options readily available, and I appreciate their thoughtfulness towards those with dietary sensitivities.

Why 4 stars? The server seemed a little huffy, not unprofessional, just a little less than warm. Also, I went in search of baklava that day. It was good, just not the taste I was looking for. It had a lot of clove, and it just didn't go over with rave reviews at my house. The Kataifi was delicious. I think, had my service experience been warmer, I'd give this place 6 stars!

As someone who works in the field of customer service, however, and as cute, well-branded and nichy ad this place is, I was hoping for a bit more. I could have easily caught the place on an off day, and will go again to make this a 5 ⭐ rating. Becuase I think, on another day, that's...

Felt at home at Voula's from the very first time I went there with my wife about 5 years ago. Currently we rarely miss a Saturday for breakfast there. The staff take after the owner, very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Of course being the great customers that we are makes it really difficult to be mean to us. They start my wife's tea before they even come to our table sometimes and when we are leaving they make sure to say so long. Love them as big as the sky, including the ones that have come and gone. I am not a vegetarian but I have yet to run out of things to order. My go-to's are the Kafteri Egg Sandwich, the Souvlaki Sandwich, the Gythio Plate and the Spanikopita but I have ordered and enjoyed several other dishes. Last week they had a Broccoli Rabe Omelette that was one of the best omelettes I have ever had. My wife usually goes for the Fruit and Yogurt Plate. The yogurt is life changing. It comes drizzled with honey and topped with chopped walnuts. I'd be more descriptive but I am at work being pestered by my fellow employees. ...

I came in for breakfast with a friend of mine, that suggested this place to me. The initial thought of the place was it was very cute, the server was very nice. My friend got some kind of tofu scrabble (that she loved) I had french toast with rose water syrup ( surprisingly good) wish they did have reg syrup but wasn’t mad at it. wasn’t that pricey but the only problem I did have .was another employee came in as we were leaving and she seemed not very happy. she didn’t say anything directly to us, but as my friend n I sat outside to say out goodbyes, our server and this employee stood at the door and was having a conversation with each other while they both kept watching us with a look snide looks. the server just kept 🤷‍♂️ at the employee. Not sure why that was but made me feel some kind of way. All in All. food was great, ill just take her( other employee )as she needs a hug or something . I may go back. we will C. I saw give it a...
