This is our second recent experience at Grasso’s. Everything was wonderful, except for the music. There was a live act at the music was very loud, which made our conversation a little difficult.

Our dinner at The Bryant was excellent, starting with a perfect martini , burrata appetizer and fried calamari with two dipping sauces. My steak frites was cooked and sliced perfectly and the lasagna bolognese was excellent. Service was wonderful and I look forward to my next meal there.

Always love Salted. Great unique menu and love the decor and that it's not too big. A bit of a hidden gem!! Prices are high (3 of us racked up an over $200 bill for apps, a drink and meals)...which seemed super high, but it is what it is. Food was good.
