    Our third visit (plus a pizza pickup) to Grazie Bistro ; like our previous visits the food and service were excellent. We believe though this is a relatively new restaurant it is run by a very experienced chef and front-of-house lead; and their experience is visible in everything. This visit, one of us had the short rib lasagna and one had the Chicken Milanese (a second time) and both were excellent. The portions are the right size and the prices are attractive. One of us had a dessert (A Chocolate Torta) which was very good. We look forward to returning soon.

    Smalll neighborhood vibe with understated elegance. Fruitti de Mar with linguini was full of shellfish and an excellent sauce for a very reasonable cost. Pumpkin ravioli was also very good. Cheesecake dessert beautifully presented and tasty with nice sized cups of coffee. Will return to try the pizza.

    Another fabulous dinner! This time we enjoyed the very generous fixed menu for restaurant week. Some restaurants limit the choices with less costly options - NOT THIS RESTAURANT. The options were as good as the regular menu (they were taken from the regular menu). This BYOB is definitely worth a visit. We will be back again!

    Service was slow. Went for restaurant week to try this spot out. Apps were great got the burrata which was a great portion and flavor was delish. Salad had nice presentation but there was way too much vinegar in the dressing. (I should have ordered the dressing on the side). Had pasta with clams for dinner but both my pasta and my husbands was too Al dente for our Liking. Service was slow and there was only 4 other tables eating at the time. May try it again for brunch to give them a second chance but for a long time the bench seating was very uncomfortable. Some Places add pillows for comfort which could Make a huge difference!

    My friend and I decided to check out Grazie Bistro for the first time thanks to restaurant week and I'm so glad we did! From the moment we entered the front door for our reservation we were greeted warmly and sat immediately. I was highly impressed with both menus, the regular and pre-fixed (for restaurant week) and initially couldn't decide what I wanted. Ultimately, I followed my heart AKA my stomach and chose the octopus appetizer and Squid ink pasta with clams (wasn't on the menu but I inquired about it after seeing it on their IG page). My friend got the pre-fixed 3 course appetizer/salad/entree and I must say, she let me try the calamari appetizer & it was probably the best I've ever had! I honestly can't find a better word to describe the food than AMAZING! EVERY SINGLE THING! It was all incredibly fresh and you can just tell, the chef made it with lots of love! To my surprise, the beautiful lady who was taking care of us was part-owner! We shared lots of laughs and she was extremely helpful/patient answering all of our questions. To cap off the night, we even enjoyed their tasty gelato and took dessert to go! I'm already planning to return very soon but most especially for my milestone birthday dinner early next year! If you're looking for a great farm to table experience, please stop in, you won't regret it! PS-it is BYOB so don't be like us and forget to bring wine to go in the lovely glasses that adorn the dinner table lol

    The food was very tasty and the options were wonderful so that many people could find things that worked well for them. However there were 5 other tables at the time we were there and ours arrived ahead of all of them but we were not served until after all of them. Our reservation was for 12:15 and we received our food at 1:35. I might go back with one or two other people but not with a large group.

    Excellent addition to the area. Pastas, chicken and appetizers were all great. Limited menu but there were a few specials added. Dining room. is well spaced out and comfortable. Portions are just right, but don't plan on having leftovers to take home. Will definitely go back.
