$10 Pescara Menu @ Top of Rochester's Best Lunch Options

A short list of Rochester, Minnesota's best lunch options absolutely includes Pescara, located in the Doubletree Hotel in downtown Rochester. Though Pescara's regular menu, loaded with fantastic fresh fish options remains available for lunch, one doesn't need to SHOULD NOT look further than the $10 lunch specials offered every day.

Old standby favorites from the $10 menu include the Ahi tuna burger (pictured above) and the steak sandwich.  The tuna burger is topped with fresh ginger and a wasabi aioli that will keep you coming back; the tender, MEGA steak sandwich will feed you for another meal or two, so long as you are able to overpower any temptation to eat the other half back in your office later the same afternoon.  You can't go wrong with the daily fish taco & soup combo either. 

Try any of these recommendations with sweet potato fries on the side...or, for an additional charge, order a side of lobster bisque, mushroom risotto or lobster mac & cheese.  And for you adventurous types, don't forget to request the house Bang Bang sauce on the side.

Added bonus to this affordable & delicious lunch is that the knolwedgeable, appropriately attentive service you'll receive from Pescara's friendly servers easily ranks among the best you'll encounter anywhere in Rochester.

Enjoy!
