Grano Arso - Table reservation

Honestly don’t get all the hype around this place. Wasn’t that impressed. Brought our own wine, $50 corkage fee, didn’t offer to decant it despite it being a 7 year bottle. Found it a little funny that they call themselves “traditional” Italian and don’t offer olive oil with the bread, only butter. (Cultured but nothing special) Only one slice per person or they charge you extra. Very small menu and they have two eggplant appetizers. We were given the wrong one. Was bland either way. Also ordered the Bucatini Cacio to share was OK. Again pretty bland, and not nearly enough black pepper. Bucatini itself had good texture and definitely seemed made in house and fresh though. Mains were Conchiglie and the half chicken. Pesto flavor was underwhelming. Chicken dish was tasty however, the lemon and caper sauce was great. Our server was friendly and experienced, though not the most attentive. Filled our own wine glasses a couple times. Atmosphere was pleasant enough. Really wasn’t that busy for a Friday night despite the limited reservation availability earlier in the week. Came in with high expectations being a Michelin restaurant. Both myself and partner agreed that it didn’t meet them. Would give it another try however maybe give the tasting menu a chance when it’s available?

Stepping back in the elegance of time... The fine detailed decor, the salted butter, sipping 18 karats, each dinner was a bouquet of flavor and a beautiful ending of tiramisu. Times have changed yet this is a restaurant that you must make a reservation for. Thank you. Vegetarian options: Gluten free pasta was delightful. Parking: Thank you... Service: Dine in

Totally amazed that a business has invested so much in their employees. The staff was able to answer questions on paring wine with meals and knew so much about the meals because the chef had taken the time to educate the staff. Loved the meals and the service! Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner
