Grappa = Crappa.

by IAthenaI

Absolutely the WORST restaurant I have ever been too. An Italian restaurant with no pasta.

1) Overpriced. $40 entrees with only about 5 to choose from.

2) Poor Customer Service. Had a problem with the wine, they would not budge.

3) Cramped environment. The waiter could not even reach my side of the table.

4) Food quality was atrocious. We ordered 1 of each appetizer, didn't enjoy any of them.

5) Bad idea for your birthday. No birthday cake. With a $300 bill, you'd expect cake.

STAY AWAY.

• Pros: None.
• Cons: overpiced, poor quality, poor customer service, no variety

Not worth your $$$

by josie55

The service did not match the $40+ entrees. We were completely unaware that the menu was "fixed" and pre-set. The website did not show that information, the reservationists did not mention it, and the confirmation email did not have that info. I called the manager to see if there's anything that he can do to change this, and he said "No." If you're managing a restaurant, the worst thing you can say to a guest is "No." There's always a solution if you're not lazy.

• Pros: Ambience
• Cons: Service, Value

The best food in Park City

by sfkp

I recently returned to Grappa after being a non-believer for the last couple of years. I had an experience not unlike some of the other reviewer's and just stayed away. Some friends of mine last winter wanted to dine there and I agreed against my better judgement. Well the experience was a complete 180 degrees from the last one! The food was terrific, the staff friendly and effeicient and the manager even stopped by our table several times to make sure everything was right.

I recently dined there on the patio and let me tell you I have not had a better ambiance or experience in my 20+ years of dining out. The server told us the chef was new and the food was proof that a young, excited chef is behind the wheel now. The osso bucco fell off the bone and was so full of flavor! The salads are huge and the portions on all the entrees are equally large and full of value. The scallops dish was equally delightful.

The kids choices are limited but our server, on the last visit, made several suggestions that fit right on with our children even though they were not on the menu. Again, the staff, excellent!

A tip: In the summer the local newspapers carry coupons for Grappa (and the other stores in thier group) offering great discounts!

• Pros: Ambience, value, service, food
• Cons: expensive, no kids menu, parking

SO DISAPPOINTING! OVERPRICED AND HORRIBLE MENU

by arielefara

My husband and I dined here last night and are still appaled at the menu. First of all - entrees are priced from $38 - $48 PER PLATE. Are you kidding me??! This restaurant would be laughed out of New York City where we're from. We don't mind paying a lot for good food, but this is HORRIBLE. The menu options are limitted and fit for fattening up farm animals. Chicken wrapped in proscciuto sauteed in creme fraiche is one of the healthiest options on the menu.

Additionally - the $16 ceaser salad was too small to be considering a child's portion. My husband actually had them take the salad back - we refuse to be taken advantage of, and this is exactly what Grappa does - they prey on "tourists" to Deer Valley who they assume to be millionaires and don't care being ripped off.

The bread (which they call "foccacia" - still laughing at that one) was cold, and the wine is THIRTEEN DOLLARS A GLASS.

SAVE YOUR MONEY - ORDER IN ROOM SERVICE! What a joke!

• Pros: The tables were sturdy.
• Cons: Overpriced, horrible selection of food, terrible service.

Regional Italian fare served in an intimate setting in the heart of Park City's Old Town.

by Contributor

In Short
Dine overlooking the lights of Main Street in what used to be the old Alpine Prospector Lodge. A rich Tuscan interior design features lush vines and swags with grape leaves. Start with the calamari friti appetizer served with lemon caper aioli and fresh marinara. Main courses include regional Italian favorites like chicken saltimbocca, osso bucco and lasagna made with lamb tenderloin. Top off a meal with creme brulee, tartufo or glass of grappa.

Nothing was "the best" for the money and it took so long to eat, seriously plan on 3 hours when you eat here.

by raymiller

This place is so overrated. It is really a pretty restaurant, but the service is notoriously slow and the menu greatly overpriced. The only time it's worth it is when they do a 2 for 1 coupon and even then it's high! I think they find it charming to make you wait for everything! Crazy!

• Pros: 
• Cons: It takes so long to eat here, it's hard to justify.

At least I had good company!

by summergirl11

Don't bother! I know we went during Sundance and it was crowded, but for the price we paid, the service was inexcusable. We waited over an hour for our table and when they finally called us from the waiting location across the street, we waited another 20 minutes. The waitress delivered a wine bottle with a price tag on it, then tried to cover it up. Our first course was cleared before one of us was finished, and the second course delivered while she frantically tried to finish. Then we waited half an hour for our entrees. Also, there was a hair in one of the entrees, and the soup portion was only a few tablespoons. All that being said, the dessert was wonderful, and the atmosphere would have been great had the service not disappointed so much.

• Pros: Atmosphere
• Cons: Crowded, Service, Food quality

Culinary Train Wreck

by danielsan

I'll grant it was during Sundance, but in their effort to squeeze as many people in as they could, they made for the worst dining experience I've had in YEARS. Tables crammed into odd angles making it impossible for the servers to move (and for us to get up). Prepare to stand outside in the snow 'cause their waiting area is FAR too small.

• Pros: Atmosphere, Wine List
• Cons: Service, Food, Crowded
