Best Casual Restaurants in Grafton

We had an excellent experience. Our server was delightful and did a great job of answering all of our questions and steering us towards wonderful selections. Our choices were delectable and delicious. Our drink and dessert choices were great compliments to our entree selections.

We took our family to Buckley's for an after Christmas fine dining experience. It was wonderful! We were guided to our table upon entry to this beautiful spot. The decor is lovely: black and white upholstery on chairs and bolsters. Bluish-green walls and white trimmed woodwork. It is a very lovely place. We had the best waitress who was very conversational and friendly. She was a sommelier, as well and was very knowledgeable discussing wines with our two sons who really know wines. They picked out two bottles during the evening that were perfect for my tastes. She was also very attentive and moved the meal at a perfect speed. Our food was wonderful. We had a few starters--sourdough bread with chive butter and fried artichoke hearts. Very tasty and different. The entrees were the perfect size--not too much food. My son's steak was just right, my scallops dish was just what I wanted, my husband's salmon was delicious. Our other sons loved their meals, too. And desserts were fabulous!

We had four in our dinner party; 2 first time visitors. My wife and I shared the roasted seafood tower as our entry. Plenty of well prepared seafood items; lobster tails, shrimp (very large), snow crab, scallops and mussles. The broth was a winner too. One of our guests tried the scallops (for the first time) entree that included mushroom risoto. New fan of scallops. Other guest ordered the spicy pasta and enjoyed the preparation. Also ordered some of the specialty drinks. The bar prepared some exquisite drinks.

No contest, best Italian in the city! Impossible to pick just one favorite item on the menu!

Service was great, food was well prepared. Chef was just a little too free with the salt. Otherwise it would be 5 stars.
