Elfo Grisanti

Went for the first time last night for my 60th birthday!! The food was wonderful! Our server Alexis was outstanding and went above and beyond to make our dinner experience unforgettable. The restaurant was very clean and I loved the family photos, added a special treat for the guest!

Italian food is something I don't go out for often, and this place is my one and only go-to in DeSoto County if I'm craving Italian food. The toasted ravioli is homemade and makes for a perfect appetizer. The lasagna, spaghetti and chicken marsala are delicious as well, but can we just talk about the chicken picatta for a sec? Oh em gee! It's like no other! Instead of bitter capers, it's made with artichokes and tomatoes and it's phenomenal! The sauce is light and the dish doesn't sit heavy. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! If you happen to catch the food truck out selling pizzas, those are great as well. The restaurant has a charming family feel to it, and the live music is a plus on certain nights. The prices are extremely reasonable, and the service is knowledgeable, friendly and nothing short of fantastic.

This place is very good. The menu isn't huge but what they make they make very well! Pizzas are very good. Wait staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Even when it's very busy (as it was on Thursday night when we were there) they are able to 1) find a way to put two tables together so a party of 6 can be seated with minimal wait and 2) there was not a long wait at all for service or for our orders to be made and brought out. There was live music in house this evening which I'm gonna be honest here I'm not a huge fan of in any restaurant at all but that's a me issue. I really like all the family photos on the walls - even in the bathroom! Some poor Grisanti kid or kids are now known for having their first communion photo on the wall of the bathroom.

Came on a Thursday night and although they were packed they managed to get our party of 6 in pretty quickly. It was busy and loud. Food is good as always. Although I'll say - we got 4 pizzas and the pizzas were not as good as usual. The crust was too crispy and dry. Also, I know Italian is pricy and there were 6 of us and we got two appetizers and two glasses of wine. Buy holy Toledo it was more than $300. Remember, 4 of us got pizza and soda! Ouch!

Love this place! Our new local GoTo for a great meal and great service. Go check it out!

We started off with the toasted raviolis (3 cheese & 3 meat). They were very large. Needed a tiny bit of salt but overall were really good. Garlic bread is a MUST, it was amazing in the meat gravy (sauce that came with the raviolis) We got casseruola and let me tell you. It was cheesy, it was creamy, it was bacony. 9/10 to me. Only thing that coulda make it better was little more chicken but I won't complain about that. It was great. We also got chicken Marsala and that was not as great. It wasn't bad at all but it lacked the creamy flavor you're supposed to get from the Marsala. Sauce was a little bland but overall not bad. We didn't eat as much of this one and ended up splitting the casseruola. 5/10 on the marsala. Lastly we finished with mocha cake and it was decent. Essentially was just a small brownie in a small cup with one scoop of ice cream on it. Wasn't overly sweet but if you're looking for sweet treat I'd prolly get it again. Now the best part. Stephanie was our waitress and she was constantly checking on us making sure we got what we ordered and refilling our drinks (the glasses are small so we had her running). Overall ambiance wasn't bad. It's a nicer place and we weren't expecting it to be that nice. Definitely weren't dressed for the occasion.

If I could give a score lower than Zero I would. Absolutely worst food I have ever eaten. We ordered two meat balls and the margarita pizza as an appetizer. The thin crust was like card board, with CHUNKS of tomato's an enormous amount of cheese covered in an ungodly amount of oregano.I ordered the veal Marsala which had zero taste, the same chunks of tomato which does not go Marsala anything. Please don't experiment with Italian food and fail. It was sprinkled with green onions.My wife ordered the eggplant parm which had no taste and again chunks of unflavored and unseasoned tomatoes! The eggplants were cut to hockey puck pieces and had no flavor.We ordered desert the key lime pie which was frozen solid!!!!! Terrible. the orange cheese cake which was the only edible food for the entire meal. I ordered a 5 dollar espresso, which I ca. only describe as brown water. Served with no lemon, sugar or spoon.It is over priced for garbage food, which is upsetting since we were hoping to find some good Italian food. Please go back to culinary school or visit Italy and take notes of the food. Hopefully the other 3 Grisantis aren't a bust! They don't even offer bread for the table.

Good: Location, atmosphere.Okay: Service was okay.Bad: Food - Seafood dishes were miss. Calamari didn't smell fresh. Shrimp in fettuccine were rubbery. Likely not fresh.Cost - Was charged for splitting a salad and for garlic bread (nothing special).

Scammers !!Not a Moving Company!!Give estimates and then Scam You!!Run From this Company!!

Atmosphere and food were amazing. The waiter was very friendly and very attentive. Next time I'm in town I will be back. Hope they have the same seafood special.
