Adjoining Hilton Garden Inn with parking lot in front. Entry is thru hotel. Very friendly staff with bar+TVs. Extensive whiskey and cocktail selection, some rotating drafts. Interesting take on eggplant Parm, more like a steak cut vs layered like a lasagna. It was good but thought texture being a thick cut was mushy.

Overall, Grappa is a really nice restaurant with a nice atmosphere and good food. It’s a little pricy, but not outrageous.
The white pizza is one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. The sauce is rich and creamy, the crust is crispy and buttery, and the cheese has this delicious sharpness. For $19 it’s pretty expensive for what is essentially a medium pizza, but it is very much worth trying!
The Grappa burger was cooked perfectly (I asked for Medium) and was very juicy and flavorful. I still liked the pizza better. The chips on the side are just okay.
I tried the Rigatoni Ala Utica and it was wonderful! The sauce is cheesy, creamy, and a little spicy. An amazing combination that I wasn’t expecting to work so well. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the chicken was a delicious addition.
The truffle and Parmesan fries are $9. Honestly, they were also just okay. They are crispy and tasty. But I felt that for the price they honestly weren’t worth it.
The service was great, the wait staff were always checking on us and were extremely friendly.
For large groups a service charge of ~20% is applied automatically, which I took to be the gratuity? Just keep that in mind if you’re there with a large group. They also don’t split checks. So our group of 11 had to pay on one card and then everyone had to pay back that person. Not a big deal, but very inconvenient.
I will probably come again for the white pizza.

Nicely decorated restaurant with a bit of mood lighting. The menu is bit pricey. I was not impressed with my salmon unfortunately, it was too charred on one side and I didn’t finish it. The lentils it came with was a bit dry. I was also recommended pasta and perhaps that is what they’re known for. The bread and meatballs were good, as well as my drink. Good service.

I made a reservation on OpenTable for Grappa. The reservation was for my mom’s birthday. It was just us two.
The host wished her a happy birthday as we walked in! Every staff member did as we interacted with them. The restaurant was amazingly cute and the food was insanely good. Neither of us could finish!
Then they brought out a slice of cheesecake with a candle for mom! Absolutely amazing experience

Just had a wonderful anniversary dinner here for the first time! We wanted to try a new spot and it was a perfect choice. We had dinner outside and had it all to ourselves. The lighting and atmosphere was super cute! The food was amazing and so filling. I was happy to have leftovers the next day. Bummed there wasn’t a desert menu. The staff was great and had recommended the orecchiete bolognese. AMAZING CHOICE. We will be back again soon!

I celebrated my birthday here and it was a nice experience (they dont give out slices of cake btw lol)
We ordered cocktails (too strong for my liking) and the ff:
1. crispy calamari 3/5 (not too crispy)
2 BURRATA SALAD 5/5 (my favorite that night!! I had to remake it at home coz it’s sooooo good!!!)
3. white pizza 3/5 (too oily. The cheeses they used are kinda bland)
4. ORECCHIETTE BOLOGNESE 3/5 (looks good on photo but lacks depth in flavor. Something u can cook at home with bottled sauces )
5. Truffle fries 4/5 (it was alright)
Overall, the night was awesome! The server we had was very attentive and accommodating!

Terrible service. They refused to serve us because they thought we were underage even with valid identification. The waitress just couldn’t do simple math. Manager was a condescending man who also couldn’t do math. Tended to all white guests with speed until it comes to the non white young people. If I could give zero stars I would.

The food was absolutely amazing! You can tell the pasta is handmade by a chef that cares. The service was incredible. Our server went out of his way to make sure my friend was extremely comfortable with the menu due to her gluten allergy. He even brought over gluten free bread and a separate dish of oil olive for her.

I didn’t take pics because I forgot like always. However, the ambiance was pretty nice, and it was a pleasant experience. My friend had ordered us some bruschetta by the time I arrived. It had some type of white, sweet sauce countered by yellow pepper rings. That sweet, savory thing. It was a different flavor. Not unpleasant, however, I wouldn’t order it. I had salad with a miniature piece of salmon on it. The salmon was unseasoned, and the creamy Italian dressing had a tangy after taste that I didn’t care for. I did not finish the salad. My friend had shrimp scampi. It came with shrimp and clams. I ate the clamd, and they were delicious. The service was pretty good.
Grappa’s wouldn’t be on my list to visit, and I give it a 7/10.

Decent restaurant that was attached to a chain hotel (Hilton). Quite busy when we stopped in, but staff was friendly and accommodating, giving us a nice table.
Food and drinks brought out quickly without wait. We enjoyed what we ordered. Our waitress was efficient and knowledgeable, giving us ideas about wine selection and what to order.
We definitely go back for dinner when we are in town…
