Rochester's Family Dining & Sports Bar

We have been looking for a good Fish Dinner in the East Valley, Primarily Mesa, AZ
We had heard  of Rochester's @ Sun Land Villa 721 S Rochester 
We decided a visit was required. 


They feature Cape Capensis for their fish. This is a wonderfully light White fish similar to Cod.
They offer one Piece for $11.99 two pieces $12.99 and all you can eat  $13.99 portions which include choice of baked potato or french fries, coleslaw a cup of New England Clam Chowder or substitute side salad in place of soup for an additional $1.00.
The portions are large enough that we could easily share and be full.
This is the two piece serving.


Half serving plenty for our meal plan

J J Madison's Breakfast on weekends

We headed out Sunday morning to find a breakfast hoping to avoid the rush. 
After observing long lines at five restaurants we were on the verge of passing on the
breakfast idea and heading for lunch.  Then we remembered that J. J Madison's served 
breakfast on the weekend. 
J.J. Madison's is a Sports Bar @ 430 North Power Road



 We decided on the Chicken Fried Steak.
This comes with choice of potatoes and eggs cooked any style.
This is where our server really stepped up.
I like my eggs scrambled. My wife likes hers over easy.
Our server said not sure but she would do her best.
The results are shown below one over medium one scrambled.




The eggs were served as requested and well prepared.
The potatoes were nice and fresh and not greasy.
The Chicken Fried Steak appeared to be fresh and not greasy, 

Over all it was a great place for breakfast before the Football crowd started arriving.
it was nice to be able to carry on a conversation during our meal

Milano's Wood Fired Kitchen & Pizzeria


We decided to visit a new to us Italian Restaurant. We had pasta  on our minds


When we arrived we saw their  dinner special was Baby Back Ribs.
Since their menu  indicated Chef Antonio Guaglionone name was on the menu 
we had to give them try.




I have never been served mashed potatoes without gravy or even butter.
The meat was like we like our Ribs tender and falling off of the bone. 
We asked for some butter our server said all they has was melted that they used for their bread sticks.
Which she brought to us and we applied to our mashed potatoes 




The Steamed Veggies were out of a bag frozen type.


Their Chicken noodle soup was good lots of Chicken and lots of noodles.

Maybe next time we will try an Italian entree.
