The Reserve Wine Bar

Nice wine bar at I-​Square in Irondequoit! They have a nice selection of wines and also beer on tap. They serve appetizers too. Since it is a part of I-​Square, you also have the option of purchasing food from one of the other vendors to go with your drink. There are great pastas & salads at Pasta Cucina or burgers at Market Grille. If the weather is nice you can take your drink to the rooftop garden seating area and watch the sunset. But if the weather is cold/​rainy (like it can be ¾ of the year in Rochester) the seating area is very comfortable. There are seats at the bar but also a nice, private lounge area with comfortable chairs & booths. Fun place to meet up with friends, especially if you are an Irondequoit local.

Great wine and champagne selection plus excellent variety of cuisine available on site. «Food court» setup is a little awkward at first, but easily enjoyed once you realize how affordable this makes a meal. Weather permitting I recommend ordering from the pasta bar in the Marketplace, getting a bottle of wine, and enjoying the roof top deck.

I had no idea this place was here… It was not exactly easy to find where this is. The nav on my phone said this the streets said that… It’s a big place it’s also houses a party space and a food court kind of situation. It’s called I-​Square. A group of us went here for a group tasting. The room is cozy and can accommodate a good deal of people. The carry Finger Lakes Wines along with the usual suspects French, Austrailian, Italian, California wines & etc. The wine list is pretty good and not too large, you can get bottles and things by the glass. You can order some apps from here or the other places in the complex. The star is the second floor rooftop. Wow. It’s just right. The sky beautiful. Sure this is not the Chicago Skyline or NYC or whatnot but it’s a great space to be had. The owner showed us around a plus and its obvious he cares. Cheers and check it out.

So happy that a Wine bar has opened in irondequoit. This is located in the I-​Square building. the wine bar is closed off (having sliding barn doors) to the rest of the restaurants located in the building. the atmosphere of the place is nice and relaxing. the wood and especially the long table in the back is made from the trees that once stood in it’s location. I believe they are still in the process of decorating the rest of the place. the tall cushioned seats are very comfortable. the place is a narrow set up and seemed small to me in the beginning but it grew on me. I cant forget about the roof top that will open up when the weather is warmer!
There is a lot of good wine and beer, great selection, great prices. the good stuff of course is at the bottom of the menu and quite pricey for those who can afford it.
I also cant forget about the occasional free appetizers one of the chefs present. (however i’m unsure if this is only during their soft opening) You are able to to eat your food from the other restaurants in the building and the staff deliver it to you after you paid. Inside the bar, however, they do have all the menus available to order from and the bartender can put the order in. This does make the process a little slower and when i tried this it was difficult to understand how and when to pay. If the bartender doesn’t check with you, pay for your meal with the bartender and they distribute it to the restaurant it came from. very clever if you ask me.
can’t wait to return!
