    I would’ve given 5 stars except the roasted tomatoes were missing on the chicken pizza with garlic and roasted tomatoes. They sliced and heated some tomatoes to make up for it which looked really gross. Roasted tomatoes are cherry tomatoes roasted in olive oil. Either be consistent or remove it from the menu. I’d keep it since the pizza loses flavor without it. The waiter was fantastic and even had to look at the menu because he said they never put them on this pizza. The Grottos in Houston does and gets 5 stars for it!

    Started out as a good experience until the salad arrived. Then it took another 75 minutes for entrees to arrive. It’s a dish that shouldn’t be ready in 10 mins. We ordered red the meal all at one time. There should not have been a delay. When the meal did arrive, it appeared to have been sitting under a heat lamp for an hour. Not a good showing.

    Great service from two different servers. They stayed on top of our drinks and wine service, food was good but the menu is only one page unlike pre-Covid. It was full service grotto like the other locations in the Houston area. Disappointed they didn’t offer the full menu.

    Great Service, Hannah was very helpful with any questions. The Ravioli with a vodka sauce was very good. The bread variety that is served when seated is a nice surprise. The pizza my husband ordered was perfect!

    Another great experience at Grotto at GNLC. Jordan is the best waiter hands down! His menu recommendations are always on point. Thank you to Steven and Chris for making Grotto a true Italian experience!
