We had a wonderful dinner at the Grotto Tavern. Complements to the chef for creating a memorable five course meal. The restaurant is set in the cave which enhanced the experience. Michelin star awarded in 2024 is a guarantee that you will enjoy every bite.

First time to a "fine" dining place and especially a Michelin restaurant. Food was tasty but nothing really over the top in my opinion. To place bread with butter as one course was pretty hillarious, never experienced that before. The staff was incredible and very supportive of my companion Rex who never been to a fine dining restaurant either. He enjoyed his visit.

We had the grotto experience with the wine pairings and everything was perfect! We are foodies and love interesting combos but nothing too out there and this was the perfect mix! It is also five courses but nothing outrageous, and absolutely a perfect amount of food. The service is outstanding and the atmosphere is incredible, perfect for a special moment like an engagement, anniversary or just a splurge! I would 100% recommend and would absolutely go back!
