" I planned a dinner here for my partner’s birthday, hoping for an intimate evening. The staff were accommodating and catered to our needs perfectly. The food was flavorful, but the pasta was slightly overcooked. Still, we enjoyed our evening and everything else made it worthwhile. We would return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had my birthday dinner at Grandma's Meatball last weekend, and it was fantastic! The ambiance was perfect for such an occasion, and the food was memorable. I went for the seafood special, and it was fresh and cooked perfectly. The staff was attentive too, which made the day even more special. Highly recommended for celebrations! " (*Curated Review*)

" I experience with Grandma's Meatball was underwhelming. While others rave about it, I found the dishes average, and service could have been friendlier. The salad portion was disappointingly small for the price. I'm not likely to return anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible experience at Grandma's Meatball! Seriously, their homemade pasta is incredible! We ordered calamari for starters, and it was cooked perfectly. I could rave about the chicken marsala, which was so tender and flavorful. The staff was welcoming, and we felt like part of the family. The only downside was limited space—it can get crowded, but that just adds to the charm, right? Highly recommend for all pasta lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" tried Grandma's Meatball last weekend, and I can't stop talking about the meal! The meatball sampler was absolutely divine; each meatball was bursting with flavor. The pasta is clearly made from scratch, which really elevated the whole dish. The atmosphere is cozy, making this place perfect for a romantic date night. Service was prompt and friendly. Can't wait to return! Highly recommend! " (*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.
