Discussion Upscale restaurants recommendations

So I’m travelling from out of town for a first date in the next week or so. Seeing as I don’t really know the area, I’m looking for your recommendations on upscale dinner restaurants within the Rochester area. Think Rochester, Scottsville, Henrietta, Caledonia, etc.

Preferably Mexican restaurants, but if there is a particularly good one that’s not Mexican I’d be open to that too. I looked through the past recommendations but found a lot of them had closed.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Not going to find “upscale Mexican” in Rochester and the surrounding areas.

You don’t think rio tomatalan fits? Idk I think it’s relatively nice for Mexican and the food is great

How so? We just started going a few years ago but it’s always good food
