I really like Graziella - it’s such a cozy vibe and they have so many options to choose from. As soon as we came in, everyone greeted us like we were family. We got to seat on the front terrace which was nice since it was a cooler summer evening. We shared one large pizza which was thin and perfect. Their cocktails were also surprisingly good. The dessert options were tempting so we tried out two but I’d definitely pass on them the next time around. Would definitely recommend stopping by if you’re in the area - make a reservation beforehand! - Andrew Dabydeen
