I had to take the time out to write my review about my experience at the Gratto restaurant. I took my friend there for her 47th birthday dinner and it was the best experience we ever had. She ordered the steamed snapper with veggies and I had the curry shrimp dinner and let me tell you something her responses was “A God make this fish”. Because the flavor and the texture was sweet to the bone. Everything was great and the service was exceptional the waitress gave of great communication skill and always check in with our table. Not to mention the owners Ashley and Damion take the time out of their busy schedule just to check in with each table to make sure that everything was top notch. My experience at the Gratto was extremely amazing and I’ll definitely be going back there soon. Thank you the Gratto Family for your service.

The spot is small but intimate. Nice vibes, the waiter Andre was awesome 👌. We loved the food, it was very tasty. Also, we met the owners and the cook. They were all very friendly and welcoming. Overall, it was a 10 experience.

Impressive! Excellent! Top notch! The service was above and beyond from the moment we entered their doors. The ambience was wonderful... cozy, intimate and warm. The entire restaurant was clean and tables were cleaned promptly after patrons left. The food was to die for, everything was well cooked and flavorful, portion size was also good. The drinks were so tasty and uniquely crafted. I would definitely frequent this establishment and recommend 100 percent.
