White Swans

Excellent authentic asian cuisine with friendly and prompt service. We will be back as soon as we can. Try everything!!! Every dish we had was amazing!!!! Bring friends and family to this wonderful restaurant. The salt and pepper wings are awesome!

Absolutely delicious. I’m not a picky eater at all, but I appreciate good food and White Swans delivered. Finding a good restaurant in Rochester lately has been like finding a parking spot at Costco on a Sunday. I’m so happy to have found this gem.

This place is super authentic and super amazing! The chef is a one man show and does all of the cooking! My mom and I decided to come here because the menu is vast! Everything we ordered was fresh and hot and plated beautifully! With spoke the amazing server and he let us know lots of amazing things about his background. We traveled from Georgia so to have some good food finally is a blessing. I wish this restaurant the absolute best and I cannot wait to some back for a visit!

We have eaten here many times, ordering both Dim Sum and from the main menu. I have loved every dish I have ordered. The food is excellent and fresh from the kitchen. The staff are very friendly and caring. Undoubtedly, this is my favorite restaurant in all of Rochester. I highly recommend it.

I accidentally never left a review when I first tried this place a few years back, but I remembered absolutely loving it. It was during the winter time, when the inside aesthetic just felt extra cozy, especially with the quieter atmosphere. I finally went again last Sunday and it felt like I relived the past. I’m not sure why or how, but I find this place, simply put, comfortable - like a nice hug. Moving away from feelings, I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve tried thus far. Side note though, sesame chicken is nothing like the "normal" sesame chicken an American might think of. Also, the server was pleasant but no one checked up on my food this time which is not the greatest, but is nothing to refrain from me going again.

This is the experience we had with White Swan on 798 S Clinton Ave. Was looking for a dinner while traveling and found this place on Yelp/Google, amazing find. The restaurant is located right next to Pizza wizard with parking 2 buildings next door. Their signs are not huge so can be a little hard to find at night. Ambiance is lively and very Chinese. We ordered Shrimp & Chicken fried rice, Shiu Mai, Shrimp dumplings, Seasoned string beans, Crispy Egg rolls, Beef noodle soup, and Ovaltine. Ovaltine is just as I remembered growing up in Taiwan, sweet and more tasty than hot chocolate. All dishes were extremely well flavored and taste so amazing that we ate way more than we intended. Owner is Cantonese speaking and also well spoken in Mandarin. The waiter also spoke Mandarin well and was very attentive. At the end of dinner, nor only did the owner gave us a free chicken dish, he even gave us a $10 off coupon for next $100 visit! Because of the delicious and authentic food plus hospitable staff, Definitely will come back to visit. Keep up the good work White Swans!

This is a must try! I’ve been disappointed by any dim sum, ever since Cantonese house closed on Winton. And have essentially given up hope of having good dim sum in Rochester—until going to this place! They have dim sum everyday except for Tuesday. It was made to order and came out fresh and hot. Soooooo good. All of the usual dim sum you’d expect! The Dan Dan noodles are also quite good! Service is very friendly 🙂
