Our visit was great! All of the dishes were delicious. Fetttucine bolognese - noodles so tender and light and sauce was very tasty. The veal cannelloni was just as good. Great find, we'll be back! Thank you for a nice dinner.

The Gran Canal Caffe is an old established Italian Restaurant in Sharpsburg,Pa .You are warmly welcomed by the family owners.The menu is diverse and the service is excellent.We enjoyed every bit of the delicious food.Notice the hand painted murals of the canal.

I mean... Wow. Ok, long story short, I booked tickets unwittingly for a beer fest Valentine's day weekend (oops). So Friday night (V-day) we've just arrived after a 4 hour drive to Pittsburgh, we're hungry and curious. We are graciously seated without a reservation, and from there our experience was wonderful. The only gripe I had was it was a looooong dinner. But the food and service was PHENOMENAL. This place is family owned, I believe, and the atmosphere is very friendly and inviting. Couldn't recommend more. It is expensive, but it's absolutely worth it.

Great experience, very friendly staff!! We loved the artichokes alla romana ( chef Fabio’s specialty ) escargot was amazing, not chewy. Great salad lemoncella, with fresh parmigiamo topping it . Pollo piccata and baked ricotta gnocchi amazing as well !! The mascarpone cheese cake and the raspberry crostata (made by Chef Michael ) so good it’s one step closer to heaven !! And finish with espresso or cappuccino and amaro of course!!! We will be back !!

Gran Canal Caffe offers standard Italian fare served in large portions by friendly, attentive staff in a comfortable if uneventful setting. Pricing is reasonable, especially considering the portions.

Great Italian restaurant. Family owned, very knowledgable and attentive staff, great atmosphere, and the tops food. We did a big family meal, so i got to try a lot of different dishes. Who knew a great gem like this was hidden in Sharpsburg? I think they are closed for a couple months in the Winter?

Just a really good meal. Homemade pastas and sauces can't be beat. Fettucine bolognese & veal cannelloni are winners!

Great place! We had a surprise birthday party here this evening with 13 people and it was like having it at our home. The owners and their daughter were phenomenal, extremely attentive and knocked our socks off with their dishes. I will recommend this gem anytime.
