La Grotta Di Marcello - Little Neck

I took my husband for lunch there today, the appetizers and meal was excellent. The attention is great! This is my 4 visit and I always leave impressed by the attention I received. Today we celebrated my husband's birthday with another friend her first time.

We chose La Grotta for a very special day: our Mom's 100th birthday party. We could not have been happier! Marcello and staff were attentive, efficient, warm, and hospitable. They supported all of our little festivities during the meal. They they treated us so, so well it was a joy! ...and speaking of the meal, the food was excellent and the portions plentiful. The choices were varied and the quality was top notch. I am from out of town, but any time I visit my Mom in Little Neck, I will have a new ritual: dinner at La Grotta. Buon Appetito!

I recently came across this restaurant, and it has quickly become one of my favorites. The food is outstanding, the ambiance is lovely, and Marcello is an amazing host. We held a gathering there recently, and everyone raved about the food (the fish was absolutely delicious!). I'm really glad I discovered this place and can't wait to return soon.

How can I give more than 5 stars? The owner, the staff, the other patrons, and the atmosphere were absolutely incredible. Right from the start, I was told, "You need to feel at home!" Everyone in the place was so cheerful and welcoming. After we finished our meal, the owner asked if we wanted dessert. We declined because we were already so satisfied with our delicious food. But he insisted, saying, "Yes, you do! Tiramisu on the house." Thank you! I can't wait to come back with more friends. A perfect 100/10!

This restaurant is fantastic! Our waiter was exceptional and even spoke seven languages! The food was superb, from the salad to the pasta, and the delicious seabass was a highlight. I highly recommend this authentic Italian spot to anyone looking for high-quality food in a calm and relaxing atmosphere.
