Al Grottino Review

Serving seafood and other Neapolitan specialties since 1937, this restaurant was a preferred hangout for VIPs in the 1950s. The food is still good, and you can choose from a variety of traditional Neapolitan comfort food, such as frittura (medley of deep-fried seafood) and mozzarella in carrozza (deep-fried mozzarella) -- prepared in four different ways. Excellent caprese specialties are zuppa di cozze (bean-and-mussel soup) and ravioli alla caprese (with fresh mozzarella and basil).

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
