Italian
Since 1909, each Grisanti chef- Rinaldo, Elfo, Big John, David, Ronnie, Alex and Frank- has brought a singular touch to our family legacy in Memphis. Now that I am privileged to become a guardian of a more than century old Tuscan culinary tradition, I make it my mission to create "Antico Nuovo" dishes for your delight in our beautiful dining room. I aim to maintain Italian standards of excellence while bringing my signature and more modern contributions to the Grisanti culinary heritage.

The flavors in each of our recipes are blended with the finest ingredients, simplicity, elegance and love. I pledge that I will protect the Grisanti legacy while continuing to refine my art form. This restaurant is my gift to Memphis, the city that allowed my great-grandfather Rinaldo and our family to thrive and raise our children in the greatest place in the world. Salute!

Con amore,
Chef Judd Grisanti

    Food and service were good, but drinks were ridiculously overpriced. A basic martini was $20 and a basic bar drink was $19, which we didn’t know until we received the check. Much better brunch place than dinner.

    Our server was great! He was very attentive. My husband and I both got specials. Mine was a cod dish and his was a rigatoni entree. The fish was great. The rigatoni was good but there are other menu items my husband said were better. Overall, we enjoyed our experience.

    Very busy on a Saturday night! Food delicious but table placement and service not as excellent as usual. We love this restaurant and glad to see others feel the same. Front desk personnel a bit harried and no smiles. I wish they could have been more gracious as a warm and relaxed welcome and seating is part of a special evening.

    Wonderful dining experience! Our server was the best that we’ve had in a very long time! Eating out has become much more pricey lately. I understand that the cost of food and labor is driving this. I don’t mind paying up if the food and service are excellent! You are doing a lot of things right!

    We normally love the ambiance at this restaurant but they added too many tables. It was cramped and you could hear everyone’s conversation but your own. The food was good and service was the best as usual but I hope they go back the previous layout. It was much more intimate and conducive for conversation.

    Dinner was delicious as always! We enjoyed the fresh baked bread, She Crab Soup, Saltimbocca, Eggplant Parmesan, chocolate cheesecake, and tiramisu. I really enjoyed the specialty drink, the Red Rose. Our server was Maggie. She was super attentive without being intrusive. We will definitely be back soon!

    The service and table were nice coming in, everything seemed to be going well then one of the dishes my girlfriend thought was really bland. I tasted it and thought the same thing. We told the waitress since it was a 40+dollar bowl of ravioli they took it back to the back salted the dish then returned it. By the time it got back it was cold and was still bland. It just wasn’t a good dish. This is not the way you take care of customers paying this kind of money on a Valentines dinner. Also the drinks are way too expensive 16.75 for a cocktail. I used to come here a lot but that was probably my last time.

    While the food and drinks were at their usual quality, our server at this visit was subpar. She was unfamiliar (and frankly dismissive) with any of the specials, to the detriment of the restaurant, as I overheard another server describing the pasta special well after I had placed the order for my entree. It sounded delicious, and I would have preferred that. She also forgot to bring another drink I had ordered towards the end of the meal. I will go back to Grisantis, but will request a different server next time.

    There were three of us for lunch. Some items were outstanding and others not so much. The bruschetta was excellent as were the salads, both house and Caesar. The desserts, gelato, tiramisu, and cheesecake, were very nice. But the daily special pizza with a white sauce, chicken and spinach, just did not taste good. (I could eat only one slice. One of my companions took the rest home in a box and reported it was much better when reheated the following day.) The ravioli was too salty, and the potato soup had plenty of body but its flavor was unremarkable. We really wanted to like this place, and maybe if we had had a dish that featured a red sauce, or “gravy,” we would have come away more impressed. But I doubt that we will go back. Gotta say, though, our waitress was attentive and delightful.

    Second time in a row that the food has just been ok. Toasted ravioli was burned, prime rib was tough, sauce on fish was so runny that it was hard to eat. It was also very expensive for what we got. We will go back hoping for a better experience and maybe only stick to Italian because it is such a Memphis tradition.

    The restaurant is beautiful! The service is great, but the waitress was a bit un informative which caused some issues at the end of the visit. No one wants that. And, because they assume everyone likes/loves Parmesan cheese. , my traditional spaghetti and meatballs was unsuccessful. They included it on top of the spaghetti.

    An old reliable. Food harkens back to a time gone by, when a plate of ravioli and spaghetti said “that’s Italian.” There are also more contemporary items on the menu. My only complaint is that the prices shown on the menu were as much as 20% lower than what was actually charged when the bill arrived. I pointed this out to the server and after consultation with the manager an adjustment was made. When I suggested they should simply update the menu I received a terse “workin’ on it…” reply.

    The food was excellent, the only issue I had was that I went for a date night and was sat at a high-top table in the bar area. The table was small and barely had enough room for our appetizers, let alone our food. It was not really the romantic feel that I was going for and I asked to be seated in an empty booth but I was told that it was reserved. An older couple who arrived about 20 minutes after us was seated in it. Will go back again for the food (to-go) but not the atmosphere or ambiance.

    It was our first time eating at Ronnie Grisanti. It was a Saturday evening and moderately crowded. The food was outstanding. We had the tuscan butter app and salads and then eggplant parm, salmon, wreckfish and fettucine alfredo. But the service was clumsy at best. The waitress was quite friendly and warm but it felt like she was rushing us and almost hovering, coming back every other minute to ask how things are. It did not feel like a leisurely dinner. The entrees came while some of us were still eating salad. The person just came and out the dishes out but did not say what they were or know who was getting what.
