Hungrys Grill

Hungry's is the smallest building doing the most work in Pittsford. On State Street, tucked into a space that's barely bigger than a food truck, it has been feeding high school kids, college students, canal walkers, and late-night regulars for longer than most people can remember. There's no real seating — you order at the counter, take your food, and figure out where to go from there. The tiny pocket park next door works. So does the walk down to the canal. The menu is classic Rochester: garbage plates, burgers, hot dogs, wraps, chicken fingers, fries. The Hungry's Plate Wrap puts the whole garbage plate concept inside a wrap, which sounds like it shouldn't work and absolutely does. The chili dog has its own following. Everything is cooked fresh and comes out fast — the operation is efficient in the way that places get when they've been doing the same thing for decades and have no patience for waste. Friday and Saturday nights it becomes something else — the Nazareth college crowd makes the run, the line moves, and for a couple of hours Hungry's is the most active social scene on that end of the village. No sign on the building worth mentioning. You either know it's there or you learn about it from someone who does.
