About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
  • Great for brunch
Brunch on Saturday and Sunday is primarily first come, first served. If you do not see the time you want available online, please call us directly.

When owner Johnny Carrabba set out on his next restaurant venture, he knew his vision would include the fond memories he had of his dear grandmother Grace Mandola. Grace, also known to the family as Mama, was a Sicilian woman born to immigrant parents in Louisiana. She had a flair for cooking, hospitality, and deep faith.

She was known to make bread from scratch every Saturday for her legendary three-hour Sicilian Sunday lunches; and, her newly established family roots in Louisiana added interesting flavors to her home cooked meals. The entire Mandola family, including her five children and fourteen grandchildren, was regularly greeted in her home with smells of warm bread, well brewed sauces and homemade soups. It was around her table that her family learned the true meaning and value of relationships, friendships and good food.

    While waiting for our guests, we sat at bar and ordered a cocktail and the rib appetizer. Thanh was our bartender who took exceptional care of us. When our guests joined us we decided to take a booth in the bar area. Again, Thanh took care of us with grace, excellent memory and service. He is outstanding! Our dinner was delicious. Grace’s has a very nice ambiance with an excellent staff.

    Even though I have been to Grace's for breakfast/brunch a few times, I have never been for dinner. I took a group of 7. Everything was great and my guests enjoyed every bite.
