    One salmon option, one filet option and the rest were pastas. Only 10 options to begin with so incredibly limited They were out of both the salmon and filet. Ordered barrata appetizer and was the worst I've ever had. Would never recommend unfortunately.

    It’s too bad. The restaurant used to be very good. I understand these awful times we are in. I honestly do. I used to be in the restaurant business. Our server was inexperienced I understand BUT my god if she came to my table one more time and asked us if we wanted to order..:By The end we were still eating and asked if we wanted our check. We have not seen our son in a bit and we wanted to sit and visit. The restaurant was not busy so there was no one waiting for tables. The food was good. Not great. You can tell the marinara was not homemade. The fried calamari was awful. The desserts were purchased and were awful. The wine was very good! I had the Malbec on the by the glass menu.

    Small portions at high prices. The kids spaghetti and meatballs was twice as much food than the fettuccini Alfredo I ordered and less than half the price. The chicken gnocchi with truffle sauce was $27 and was a very small portion and the chicken was very dry. My wife said it was just ok. We had ordered a pizza from the menu for my one year old only to find out they don’t really offer that and it seemed like the chef was insulted that we ordered it. Drinks come in tiny glasses and are hard to keep full. If you are thirsty save yourself some money and go with water because they give you a bottle to share at the table. Service was great!! Server was very nice and attentive. I had pretty high expectations because of the other great local restaurants in Bloomington, but unfortunately this was a bit of a let down.

    I went there to celebrate my birthday with my boyfriend, and everyone was so friendly! There was even a little sign waiting for me on the table, and I was able to get a free, delicious dessert! I loved the fettuccine alfredo, and the cocktail I chose was amazing and sweet! Loved it, as it was my first time there!

    The service was lacking. Our server seem to have to reminded of things...drinks, bread. She was supposed to box up a salad and she didn't. We had the Spinach Artichoke Dip and it had a strong vinegar taste. Soda fountain drink machine was not working. My steak was very good I had the Ribeye. But it was supposed to come with Brocolli instead the served it with Asparagus. So overall for the price it just wasn't worth it.

    Excellent service. Friendly staff. Made reservations for Mother's Day. Was very surprised that the stock menu for the day was not Italian. Was not expecting a brunch menu. 😔 Was really ready to dig into some pasta, so that was disappointing. But the food we dig get was fair to good and we enjoyed ourselves.

    We dined here to celebrate Mother’s Day as well as IU graduation. This was our first time dining here for brunch. I guess being Mother’s Day I kind of expected there to be some sort of decoration on the table or happy Mother’s Day greeting but there was nothing. The menu was extremely limited and they were actually out of any eggs other than scrambled which is strange because you’re offering a Mother’s Day brunch. You could not have toast with your order which was beyond bizarre. It took forever to get coffee and every time the waitress brought it over she spilled it and never wiped it up. There was no cream on the table all they had was milk which is not the same thing. The omelette had zero flavor whatsoever in the French toast was such a tiny portion. The best part of the entire meal where the potatoes & that’s it! Overall the breakfast was pretty bland and nothing I would ever return for. The only reason we dined here was because they took reservations and all of the other breakfast places in town do not take them. I guess the lesson learned is it’s better to wait to dine at one of the other local breakfast restaurants then to eat here. It really was overall a negative experience.

    We paid the $360 for six people the graduation meal and were very disappointed with what you received for this amount. The meals we received were on the menu for $20-30 lower than the same dish on the regular menu. We did not receive anything other than the main course for $60 per person (no salad etc....) I DO NOT recommend this package at all, if you want to attend for graduation I would make a regular reservation in the dining room and save yourself a lot of money! What food we did receive was very good and I would recommend the restaurant overall, just not the graduation package, not worth it, actually feel ripped off.

    We went there for a graduation dinner and had to pre pay. We were then told they were out of shrimp and we could not have one of the menu options. Food was average at best but for the price it was not worth it. I asked for a Manhattan and it was made very poorly. I would not go back to this restaurant again

    We were there for the IU graduation meal, which cost $60 per person for each entree. The entree with the shrimp and crab in it was very bland. Not tasty at all. The two of us who ordered it did not finish it. Definitely did not get our money's worth.

    We have been to Grazie before, several times, and loved it,; so we chose it for IU graduation weekend. The prices were very inflated and the food was subpar, with a limited menu. Our family was disappointed with the selection, taste, and price. I felt like they didn't care what the food or prices were since you had to pay, in full (non-refundable), when making the reservation. I might recommend for non-graduation weekend; I definately would not recommend for graduation though.
