We decided to dine at Grotta Azzura Restaurant one Friday evening. Despite having a reservation for 9:15 PM, we arrived at 8:45 PM only to be informed that they wouldn't honor it due to the restaurant closing at 10:00 PM. It seemed more like a desire to close early rather than a lack of available tables, as the hostess suggested. However, we were offered seating at the bar, which turned out to be a pleasant experience. The bartender was exceptionally courteous and professional.For our meal, we ordered the pasta Alfredo with shrimp, which was exquisite. To conclude, we indulged in the chocolate mousse, which was also delightful. Despite the unfriendliness and lack of professionalism displayed by the hostess, I would still recommend this restaurant solely based on the quality of the food. It's advisable to arrive early to avoid any inconvenience, given that the kitchen closes at 10:00 PM. Overall, a worthwhile dining experience.

To drink a beer it's okay..... But like the rest of the city everything is too expensive for what it is....

Delicious Italian meal in the heart of little Italy. Everything tasted authentic and every plate was sent back empty . Would definitely return!

While visiting The Little Italy we saw this corner cafe. Just ordered cappuccino which was great, but more than that, the atmosphere and environment was amazing! Like watching the scenes from the Godfather ?Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pastry available
