    We always love coming to Grassa Gramma. The ambience is amazing and unlike any restaurant in Louisville. Our server was very friendly and professional. He took the time to answer our questions on the wine selection and entrees. We chose the baked Imperial seafood. It was much different than the seafood bucatini we had our first time there. But it was well prepared and flavorful. Our guests chose the spaghetti and the lasagna entrees. The spaghetti and meatballs is one of our favorites here. The lasagna was good too but he felt it had little meat. The sauce was delicious and there was plenty of cheese. Our server suggested a really nice Cabernet and he was right. It was perfect. We look forward to our next experience here

    Great place to celebrate a special day. The twin filets were as delicious as ever. The Lexitonian salad is the best salad you will have in your life, and it’s bottomless! And don’t even get me started on the huge cookie for dessert. SUPERB!
