They are more than just an Italian restaurant. They have nightly specials that are very good. Their price is reasonable and I like the fact that it is set up with only tables...it kinda gives a cafe type of feeling. The staff is very polite and helpful and I believe the owner is always there. He always greets the customers on their way in and wishes them a good night on the way out. Definetely one of Rochester's besst Italian restaurants! less

I would have to say that Birmingham lacks in good European cuisine. As for Costa's, I have been their twice, once for lunch and once for dinner. They have large selection of different entrees and at very reasonable prices. The food is pretty good and they give large portions. The service was good too. The girl seemed to know a good amount about dining and food. She was polite as well. The set up is very nice. You would tink that you were in a fine dining type restaurant but you will see people dressed casual. Crazy thing about this place is that the have a drive trough! If you go try the Veal Picante. Enjoy! less

I don't know why these other people are saying that the price is cheap. This place was very expensive but well worth it. You most be prepared for a long dining experience. They bring each course with much time in between. THis is dining at its best. The food was amazing and they have an extensive wine list. The one thing that bothered me about his place was the attitude/service from the matradee. My girlfriend and I were not regulars and are from NY so we dressed alittle more Ny style ie. in black and kinda trendy, but nice. My girlfiend was wearing a backless shirt and is Persian so they didn't immediately greet us even though I had reservations. It took us about 12 minutes to get seated an I saw many tables available. It was like they were trying to strategically place as to not offend their stuck up WASP type regular customers. I was very offended and almost said something before we finally got seated. I had the veal chops and my girlfriend had the fillet mignoin. We ende up spending about $100.00. Hey if you don't mind rude snobby people then I highly recommend it. less
