    Last night, I had the pleasure of dining at Grazia and it was an exceptional experience. From the moment you step into grazia was warm and inviting, with soft lighting and elegant décor that created a cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, making sure every detail was perfect. The menu offered a diverse selection of dishes, and I decided to try the Pappardelle con Aragosta e Gamberoni. The presentation was stunning, and the flavors were perfectly balanced. The large range of seafoods the lobster and large prawns complemented the dish beautifully. The portion size was generous, and every bite was to die for. For dessert, we indulged in a decadent Tiramisu, and the favourite Bombe Alaska. It was the perfect ending to a meal, with a silk, citrus center that was pure bliss. Overall, my experience at Grazia was memorable and, I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

    Great night had with a group of 6 of us. Service was friendly & Food was amazing. We shared an assortment of dishes to start with; calamari, focaccia, croquettes & Nonna’s meatballs. All were delicious. Then we each had a pasta - red lobster spaghetti is my new fav with a fresh pop of flavours in each mouthful with generous lobster throughout. Friends had the ragu which they loved. Finished the evening with the classic Italian Tiramisu & coffees for dessert. Thank you to our waiter Marco for your wine suggestion of the Vermentino. We’ll be back. Grazie
