"Grasso is such a Samantha. Despite the fact that we have clearly wandered on over to another iconic HBO heavyweight of the Nineties, due to the sheerfun, happy-hedonism feel of thisSohospot, we’re sticking to it. Frankly, you won’t care that Grasso’s ‘Mom’s Spaghetti’ is a little bland when a fishbowl of Aperol spritz arrives at your table. Bring your least PG friends to get a little silly, split molten mozzarella sticks, and stage an impromptu photo shoot in the disco bathrooms. Or if you’re simply looking to inject some feel-good factor into a weeknight, sit at the bar with aNegroniand our pick of the menu—the rich, tangypenne alla vodka." - Heidi Lauth Beasley
