154 Genesee Street, Rochester, NY 14611 |
I Don't Know was a Chinese take-out place in the Changing of the Scenes neighborhood. Owner Jessie Dong says the name was inspired by her children's frequent response to what they want for eat. Shortly after she opened in May 2015, the quirky moniker garnered international attention and brought brisk business to the two-person operation.
I Don't Know had two tables inside. Most menu items were under $10.
Dong previously owned the Golden Port in Greece.
Despite the media attention and subsequent burst of customers, the location ultimately did not attract enough business and closed in June 2016.
