The food and wait staff at this Grotto location are great. We also received a nice welcome when we arrived, skipped the line and were taken right to our table. The only downside to this wonderful restaurant is that it is noisy. Might they create a space where the acoustics are better for those with hearing troubles? Sorry the location in The Woodlands, TX, closed.

Best food I’ve had in a long time! Everything was served hot and fresh, and the taste was out of this world. The service was top-notch—attentive, friendly, and fast. From start to finish, it was an amazing dining experience. I will definitely be back again!

We always enjoy dining at Grotto. The business lunch with the Grotto salad, chicken Grotto, and wedding cake are always delicious. We always enjoy seeing the manager who does an exceptional job of welcoming customers and is always personable and nice. Our server did an outstanding job of providing exceptional customer service. We look forward to dining at Grotto again soon.

The service was excellent. However, both my meal and my wife's were cold when served. Since we were a party of 6, we did not to make a fuss, so we did not bring this to anyone's attention.
