    Grotto never disappoints. My wife’s birthday was the most recent occasion that led us there and the food was near perfect. Every aspect of the meal from start to finish was top notch. It’s just the right amount of everything you want or need in a restaurant.

    All of our meals were too salty, drinks were too strong and salty, all of us didn’t finish our meals the waitress asked why and we told her (not in a complaining way but in an informative way) but wasn’t remedied in anyway so pointless of her to ask - I’ve heard bad things but wanted to try it anyways but I wouldn’t recommend much better options out there including the seller which is owned by the same people
