    We had an incredible dining experience at Grotto! Our table had multiple food allergies, and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us. Chef Germany personally came to our table to quadruple-check everything, which truly put us at ease. His attention to detail and care were outstanding. Our server was also extremely kind and attentive, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. Having worked in the service industry for years, my husband and I were thoroughly impressed by the professionalism and care shown by the entire team. On top of that, the food was phenomenal! The peach Bellini was perfection, the margarita pizzas were delicious, and the bread was the cherry on top of an already fantastic meal. If you're looking for a place that genuinely cares about their guests and serves amazing food, Grotto is it. Highly recommend!

    The menu has changed and not for the better. We miss classic dishes and the fabulous antipasto they used to have.

    We split a chopped salad and both had pasta dishes. They were good but I think I will go back to the snapper next time. The bread basket and dipping oil is delicious.

    Always a great experience. Service and attention is impeccable. You can relax and take it slow and they accommodate. Waiters know their product and they are patient and want you to have a great dinner. Every dish is great but I love the pear capriccio salad and brick chicken both of which were great.

    We had a reservation, on time, nicely dressed and were seated near the kitchen. There were many empty tables in the dining room and remained so while we dined. The food was excellent, service was adequate.

    Overall good experience, the Eggplant Parmigana and the Capellini was great, also the Cauliflower crust Pizza, the Mozzarella Cheese on the Capresse Saldad was very very think and hard. Also the prices lean to the high end for the portions.
