Overall, a wonderful dining experience! Gracie’s is a beautiful restaurant with a sophisticated atmosphere and great vibe. The tables are a bit close together, but nothing that detracted from the evening. In hindsight, the tasting menu is probably the way to go, but we opted for à la carte. The dirty martini was excellent, and we absolutely loved the burrata and beets. The cod was beautifully prepared, although I wasn’t a huge fan of the accompanying salad garnish. The steak was good but had a smokiness that was a little overpowering for my taste. We finished with a lovely crème brûlée. Overall, a fantastic restaurant with thoughtful dishes and a memorable atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit!

We went for our anniversary and everyone made us feel really special. The calamari was delicious and so were our meals (Japanese wagyu and salmon with scallops). Our server, Katie, was professional, personable and really fun. Ambience was classy.

Service was outstanding. Food was delicious. Had an array of appetizers, along with Caesar salads and pizzas. Drinks were delicious as well. Did their birthday package and that was a nice touch for the birthday we celebrated. Sat outside prior to sunset and was a bit cool as the sun went done and we did not sit at a fireside table, so bring a layer just in case.

Excellent lunch experience. Service was prompt and friendly, cocktails were prepared expertly, food choices were good, came out quickly and tasted great. I mentioned it was my wife's birthday and we got a very nice piece of cake thrown in plus a candle without asking. Top notch restaurant, we will return.
