Grazie Ristorante Italiano

Bothell, WA
Grazie Ristorante Italiano

Summary
Would we go there again: Yes

They're definitely a step above your everyday restaurant. A bit more classy, if you will. Maybe a nice place to go at the end of some kind of formal evening. Good food and not as expensive as it could be.

Comments & Ratings
Tim's Comments: Tasty food, and holy cow was it ever fast arriving at our table! I don't even know how it's possible to prepare food that quickly.

Jeni's Comments: It was interesting because they tried to make the atmosphere feel high class with professionally dressed wait staff, nice menus, and presentation of food. However, the decor did not reflect that.
