I can't believe it has been a few days since my wedding reception. I cannot thank the staff at La Grotta enough for their hard work and especially Ron, the event manager for making our day special. Ron made sure that everything ran smoothly and that we have nothing to worry about. The room was decorated beautiful. The upstairs space was great! The recent renovations in the upstairs space came out wonderful. The food was plentiful and so good!! My family and friends especially raved about their Penna A La Vodka, Chicken Park and the White fish dish. I would definitely booked and hold my event at La Grotta. as long as Ron is their their you have nothing to worry about!

Food was excellent. Dishes were served family style. Went for a 50th Wedding Anniversary party and had the upstairs room. Difficult for the older people but room was self sufficient with it's own restrooms. Plenty of time between courses to mingle.

I had my daughter's bridal shower here in April. The room upstairs was decorated to perfection. The food and service were beyond superb. Ronnie the manager went above and beyond. The staff were friendly, efficient, and extremely attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant. My husband and I have eaten here multiple times and the food is positively delicious and always fresh . We are NEVER disappointed!!

I came here for a farewell party expecting the food to be average. I was pleasantly pleased. Although the appetizers (calamari) had chunks of salt on it, the other appetizers were tasty (baked clams, eggplant, artichoke).The main courses were all wonderful. The steak was cooked perfectly with an over abundance of onions. The chicken parm was thin and breaded well. The salmon was moist and flavorful.

We've been here before, and we keep coming back for more. We joined some friends here for an early dinner, we had the restaurant to ourselves for only about a half hour before people started coming in and filling up. We had a drink at the bar first and then were seated promptly. Service was amazing, from the front desk, to the bar, to the table, we were always treated special. We started with a grilled octopus appetizer, which was served on a nice salad with red onions and baby mixed greens. This was this was so amazing, when I come back again I'm going to ask for this is my entree, it was out of this world. I did have the pork shank with linguine, in a brown sauce that was out of this world, other dishes at the table were the pasta with mushrooms, a chef specialty, lamb shank with linguine, ,and veal Parmesan.This restaurant also offers live music on certain evenings, definitely a place to go with adult friends for an evening out.
