Review Grano Ristorante - Mississauga

We all had a wonderful time last night. Our chat, the food, conversations that could be easily heard over the music. All delightful. The lamb shank was a 10/10. I hope to try the lobster ravioli next time. We dropped the mushroom ravioli off at the neighbours on the way home who are under quarantine. The father got Covid from work and is hiding in the basement. She sent down a small plate as his appetite has been low. A message came back, loved it, more please. Husband and wife devoured it. She said best ravioli ever. You don’t just make food, you make memories.

Amazing service! Food was amazing everything came out hot and fresh! I really enjoyed the Pesto pasta with grill chicken. My husband enjoyed his food so much he finished most of his food before I got to take a picture lol... Overall 10 star restaurant

Quality of the food was VERY good: appetizers, entrees and desert. Service was also good, super nice and friendly staff. I had dinner with my husband and another couple and asked everyone how many stars they would give and all answered 4 stars, but for different reasons. Responses: seemed like the customers can’t have what they want if the owner/manager doesn’t “approve” of it. Example 1: Asked for olive oil to eat with the bread, was told no because the bread already comes with butter, I still wanted the olive oil but didn’t get it. Example 2: Asked for more bread to finish my plate and enjoy the rest of the red tomate sauce and couldn’t get it, just because they don’t give two baskets of bread per table. In 4 we had 1 basket. Charge clients for more bread, shouldn’t say no. Example 3: Charging clients 18% to split checks doesn’t seem fair, charge at least how ever much the extra transaction would cost, but profit from splitting checks is not really fair. Good experience overall.

We were happy to support this small business because it's our favourite Italian restaurant. It's a small space and it's perfect for special occasions. The food is fantastic and they have a wide array of pasta and meat dishes as well as appetizers. We always get grilled calamari but I forgot to take a picture of it before we ate them. Just know that they're perfectly cooked and with balsamic vinegar they're delicious; which brings me to my point, all of the food I've eaten there is delicious. I would definitely recommend for a special occasion.

Great place for enjoying an Italian cuisine. Unfortunately, they do not have any vegetarian option in Sandwiches or Mains but they have good variety in pasta and starters. Good ambience and prompt service. Would definitely recommend this to everyone.

Very happy with the quality of food and service. They have amazing Soups and Entrées. Pollo (Chicken) Amore was the best- rich and creamy! Very warm hostess and the restaurant staff. Perfect place to just relax and enjoy amazing food. Highly recommended.

Fantastic! Great food made of high quality ingredients and very delicious. The ambiance is great and authentic and the owners are wonderful!

WHAT TO TRY?! I think out of the pastas we've tried, the spaghettini with white creamy pesto sauce was the best. Very creamy and delicious. So I would recommend any pasta with their creamy sauce. But if you're not a white creamy sauce person, the next choice would be anything with the tomato sauce. The pasta dishes were affordable and generally alright, but I wouldn't say it was the best Italian pasta I've had. I also ordered linguine in aioli with rapini and sausage. The rapini was definitely overcooked and didn't taste like effort was put in to make the rapini because it was that overcooked to borderline mushy. I don't usually like giving bad ratings but other than the food, service was very poor. There was only one server for the whole dining area (which is not a big place) and I think he was the owner to the place. He didn't serve me water when I asked for it and his attitude towards giving us service was very poor. It's almost like he was expecting me to order wine or else I'll have to wait for the water when he remembers or when he feels like it. My friends and I got the impression that he was annoyed at us and he wanted to leave on time at 9 pm when his restaurant were to close because he emphasized the restaurant would be closing at 9 pm at 8 pm while we were enjoying our dinner. I felt really bad because my friends felt very uncomfortable eating at his restaurant and felt rushed. I understand ppl may have bad days, but if you work in the service industry, it's expected that patrons wish to be served with kindness and care if patrons did not do anything wrong. Restaurants thrive on having loyal customers coming back and good word of mouth. It's unfortunate that his service was very rude and uncalled for. I would not be recommending such a restaurant and his service to my fellow friends and readers. LAST TIP?! If you have a big party, this restaurant may not be able to accommodate your size. You'll have to call in advance. They emphasize they are a family restaurant and can only serve so many people at one time. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant if you want to have a great time if you are served by this server.
