" The moment I walked into Grassa, I was captivated by the vibe. The dinner crowd is energetic but not overwhelming. I urge you to try the pappardelle; the texture is perfect and the flavors come alive! Honestly, I'd return simply for the ambiance alone if the food wasn't so good. Must try for anyone who appreciates Italian dining! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Grassa was an absolute pleasure. The pasta is homemade and you can really taste the quality in each bite. I was particularly impressed by the truffle pappardelle which was rich and flavorful. The atmosphere is lively and inviting, perfect for a casual night out. The only downside was the wait time, but once the food arrived, all was forgiven. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was a fabulous dining experience! The pasta was incredibly good, with great flavors harmonizing beautifully. The carbonara had a kick, which I loved. The service could use some polishing, however, but I'm willing to overlook that for the food. I do plan to visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to Grassa and I was impressed. Both the food and the friendly service stood out. The made-from-scratch gnocchi was superb; I’m still dreaming about it! My only critique would be the minimal wait-time for food as it can feel lengthy, even if the pasta is fresh. I’ll be back for sure to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm in love with their carbonara! It was so creamy and rich with a hearty sprinkle of cheese on top. The atmosphere had a beautiful energy, and the restaurant felt busy but organized. I must say though, service was a bit slow—we waited nearly 40 minutes for our food—but it was worth it for that carbonara! I’ll definitely recommend this place to friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Each visit to Grassa makes me appreciate the rotating menu! I grabbed the pumpkin ravioli and the flavors danced in my mouth. Seating was quite cozy and set the tone for a lovely dinner out. However, the food took longer than anticipated to arrive. I’ll keep coming back because of how delightful the food and atmosphere is. " (*Curated Review*)

" A delightful little Italian spot, Grassa is perfect for a casual pasta date. The selections are vast and all sound amazing! I tried the calamari which was fun to share, and the spaghetti was quite filling. A good place to grab food quickly after work. I'll be encouraging everyone to come by! " (*Curated Review*)
