Frank Grisanti's Restaurant Reviews
This restaurant is now called Embassy Suites Memphis Italian Restaurant. Frank Grisanti sold out to them and retired. I was told the food is the same, just some of the names have changed. The spaghetti with meat sauce has always been my favorite. That’s what I ordered today. The meat sauce is not the same. It doesn’t taste as good, yet prices remain high. I even paid extra to get extra sauce with my dish. I can make better sauce myself using a jar from the grocery store. Sorry,...read full review
Upsetting to learn that they have permanently closed as of the end of the day on this past Saturday, May 25th. I read it on social media Sunday morning, and could not find any info online that confirmed it.

What a great family friendly establishment! The food, the employees, and the atmosphere are amazing!
Frank Grisanti's Restaurant is a local spot with mixed results. While the bread is a highlight, some dishes fall short. The Italian spinach is unimpressive, and the salmon is dry. The rib-eye steak is below average, with too much fat and not enough flavor. The take-out option, Elfo Special, is also underwhelming, with a bland sauce and small portion of shrimp. However, recent visits have shown some improvements, and the atmosphere remains attractive with white cloth covered tables and sparkling clean wine glasses. The staff are friendly and attentive, making guests feel comfortable. The menu offers a variety of choices, including the highly recommended blackened redfish. The spaghetti, though sometimes served a little cold, reminds visitors of authentic Italian places they've visited, with just the right amount of sauce. The garlic bread served with meals is appreciated, and the ambiance is described as sexy and classy, perfect for date nights. Overall, the restaurant needs to improve in some areas but still provides a pleasant dining experience.
