    Remains my favorite restaurant in Cambridge. We selected an array of smaller and larger plates, the staff coursed them out perfectly. New for us was the charred broccolini which was a joy from the moment the smells hit our table. Great cocktails, beer, and wine selections as well.

    Food was incredible, service was excellent! The saganaki, tzatziki and cornmeal pie were amazing! Only minor criticism is that the tables are a bit close together. The food is so great though, highly recommended.

    We told our waitperson that we had to eat relatively quickly, as we were headed to a show after dinner. She did an excellent job of keeping everything moving so that we had a wonderful meal even in our short timeframe.

    We had a great time at Grafton last night. I want to send an extra big thank you to the hostess. I made a note that I was surprising my husband with his friends who flew in and to not mention them when seating us. She NAILED IT. ‘Table for two?’ And even removed the ‘extra’ silverware and glasses to make it look like the reservation was for 2. My husband was SO surprised! Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
