One thing is for sure. The food here is horrible, I mean absolutely horrible. It's either bar food or greasy food that's ridiculously expensive. Compare that to the variety of food options I used to have just a week ago in the South and priced half of what they are in Rochester. Oh, and don't forget they taste authentic too. I am already committed to leaving Rochester in less than 6 months now, thanks but no thanks. This isn't a place I see myself living for the rest of my life, or even till the next year to begin with.

What food options did you have in the South? What parts of the South did you go to? You can get your share of greasy food there as well.
Wow, you're disappointed in the food so you're leaving the area? Curious as to where you dined that turned you against the area so quickly? There are some very wonderful restaurants in the city and the suburbs that I would put up against any world class restaurants I've dined at in NY, Chicago, Toronto, Maui, Vegas, New Orleans, SF, Dallas, LA, Atlanta, Bermuda, Mexico, shall I go on? But seriously, where did you eat that you formed such a quick assessment of the food/area?

Rochester has a lot of great restaurants. Where have you been that's so horrible? My assumption is you haven't tried 99.999999% of the areas restaurants and generally just don't know what you're talking about.
I hate this city as much as the next guy but damn, saying the food sucks here is lulzy at best. If there is one and only one thing Rochester really has going for it, it's food.

Not to mention they've only been here a week. LOL. There's been a lot of dumb things posted here. This ones ranks up at the top.
Rochester has one of the highest populations of Italians in the country. Not even talking about other cultural foods, I'm just imagining what they all would think of somebody saying that their restaurants are not authentic and nothing but bar food...LOL!
But anyways, if the OP wants "authentic" restaurants, or unique with food that is far, far from bar food in Rochester, here are some options. I have a feeling he has only been to the chain restaurants and thinks that all there is in the area:
