Grotto Restaurant Review

Descend the steps to find a delightful hideaway with an even more secluded outdoor garden beyond. Virtually out of sight but for a red neon sign marking this osteria, Grotto aims to show its provincial elegance and rustic simplicity in cuisine and character. The Italian Mediterranean menu consists of antipasti, primi, secondi and pastas. Grilled octopus on a bed of mixed greens and cherry...

A small cozy osteria with a romantic garden serving homey Southern Italian fare.

A charming little den of excellent Italian food.

The Scene
This aptly named osteria is neatly tucked between brick walls on a quiet street, and given a cozy glow with red lights and other conscientious detailing. Just a few tables and a...

never again part 1

You are a joke, and the upscale decor in your restaurant does not make up for the terrible service, attitude and incompetence. First, you served me the wrong food, I asked for the linguini with white sauce, no clams, but I got a red sauce. If I wanted red sauce, I would've asked for it. It was delicious, but not what I requested. There's nothing like being in the mood for something special and...

never again part 2

With the way we were treated, I can guarantee that we would never set foot in your establishment again. It is too bad you have driven us away, because the food is excellent, and the decor is very nice. I wanted to like your restaurant so bad. I wanted it to be the highlight of my weekend in New York, but it actually ruined the weekend, and the rest of the night that followed. It's too bad. With...

Used to frequent this place a lot, but recently felt ripped off after purchasing a living social deal. The deal was for dinner for 2 for $29. When I made the reservation I told them I had a living social offer, and told them again when we arrived at the restaurant. They failed to mention there were only 2 wines...

Great food - terrible (really terrible) service

Average Rating

I had high hopes for this place. I read good ratings for it on Yelp. We went in October because we bought a deal from Groupon or Living Social for the restaurant. It was cold so the back yard area we read about was obviously not open. Instead, we were packed into a long, single row seating situation with about...

Grotto: Service with an attitude

I recently dined at Grotto during a hot and humid evening at the end of June. Upon walking down the short, narrow stairs into the restaurant, the establishment’s name made sense. I know I might be more sensitive to the heat and humidity than others but this evening was particularly hot and sticky. The restaurant was extremely hot and I noticed that it was pretty much empty, which I found odd...
