    It was a late (9 pm) evening decision, to go out for a light bite, post a Jack and Jill Baby Shower. Where to go to get some healthy fare like salad, oysters, mussels and clams? Aha, La Griglia was the answer. And so we were off. As always we were greeted with big smiles and a “great to see you”. The service and food was spectacular. .Be it a quick bite or a 3 course dinner, choosing La Griglia is always a great choice!

    Recommend the rack of lamb grilled medium-rare. It was perfect. Also the arugula salad with apples and walnuts is excellent.

    We live in Staten Island which has so many Italian restaurants but our favorite is Mulberry Street in Woodbridge. Chef Paul makes so many excellent dishes. Some of our favorites are Beef Bolognese, Veal Sorrrentino & Shrimp Parm (not on the menu but he will make it). Best app is the mussels in a cream wine sauce and best dessert is his pistachio cheesecake. Reasonably priced food and wines. Great vibe with suttle dinner appropriate music in the background.
