DECADENT CUISINE. SUBTERRANEAN SETTING.

 

Occupying an inconspicuous, subterranean spot on the back side of Beacon Hill, Grotto has earned itself high praise with imaginative, contemporary Italian cuisine. The dining room's exposed brick walls covered with artwork from local creative-types give Grotto an intimate and cozy feel that's hard to find anywhere nearby.

Chef / Owner: Scott Herritt                Chef De Cuisine: Jose Herrera
