" While the food was enjoyable, the service left a bit to be desired. We felt rushed at times despite the restaurant not being too busy. The flavors were there, and I enjoyed the homemade sauce, but I felt a bit overlooked as a customer. Still, I might give them another chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so much about Grandma's, I finally made a reservation for a weekend dinner. The food was indeed homemade, but the flavors fell short of exceptional. I ordered bolognese and found it lacking in seasoning. The service was decent but not outstanding. I appreciate the effort put into their dishes, but I expect more when I pay premium prices. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently took my family to Grandma's Meatball for a special night out. While the food was good, it didn't live up to the rave reviews I had heard. The pasta was a bit overcooked, and I expected bigger portion sizes for the price. Service was friendly but a little slow. The atmosphere was pleasant though, which did add to the experience. I might consider giving it another try. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing! What a little gem we found! Grandma's Meatball is an absolute must-try! The food was heavenly, and I loved the cozy atmosphere. Tried the meatball sampler to start, which was outstanding! The staff was friendly and made us feel like family. Seriously can’t wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a wonderful dinner at Grandma's Meatball. The staff was friendly and helpful, even with our loud kids! The homemade pasta was so fresh, and the meatballs were exceptionally good! The atmosphere is somewhat cozy but can feel a bit tight with larger crowds. All in all, a charming little spot that is definitely worth a visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" We discovered Grandma's Meatball by chance and it turned out to be a delightful surprise! The homemade pasta is to die for, and every dish we ordered was consistently delicious. The meatball marinara was probably the best I've had outside my grandma's kitchen! The staff were attentive and the ambiance felt very Italian—just loved it. Definitely a must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Grandma's on a Saturday night, and it was quite busy! We had to wait a bit for a table, but it was worth it. The meatball appetizer was spectacular—definitely order that! For entrees, I had the shrimp scampi; it was rich and delicious. The service was good but had moments of being a bit rushed. Overall, it’s a delightful spot for an Italian feast.
