Grissini

Frommer's Review

This stylish, airy Italian restaurant echoes the palatial setting of the Grand Hyatt Hotel, with a tall ceiling, parquet floors, slick black furniture, and ceiling-to-floor windows offering a spectacular view of the harbor -- day and night. Dining is on two levels, giving everyone a ringside seat. The changing menu, which offers some of the best Northern Italian fare in town, always includes the antipasto misto, a selection of appetizers. If you're really hungry, you might want to follow it with one of the pasta or risotto dishes, such as the black squid-ink pasta filled with celery root, Italian cod, and green olives, or the risotto with buffalo mozzarella and black truffle. Main dishes have included grilled lobster with bell peppers, capers, garlic, and oregano, and roasted lamb rack with mustard, tangerine, and honey along with escarole with a black olive and wine sauce. The wine cellar, with 1,000 bottles, is exclusively Italian. At lunch there is lighter fare and more choices of pasta and risotto, but whether for lunch or dinner, you can't go wrong dining here.
