The food at Bar Grazie was very tasty, and even though we ordered takeout, I didn't have the typical issues with my order (like I usually do with L.I. restaurants in general). For some reason, restaurants on L.I. love to put my cold salad in the same to-go bag as the hot food, thus wilting and ruining my salad by the time it gets home. DRIVES ME NUTS. Bar Grazie at least had the foresight to NOT do that, so that my salad was cold and edible upon reaching me. Yay, Bar Grazie !!!
So, we ordered two different salads... the Mexican Caesar salad, which was a normal Caesar salad with cotija cheese instead of parmesan, and corn chips instead of croutons. Supposedly, the Caesar dressing had cilantro in it, but I couldn't taste it, which is fine by me, considering I'm not a huge fan of cilantro. The salad was really good. The other salad was their Italian chop, which had romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, hot & sweet soppressata, and Italian vinaigrette. For some reason, it was missing olives, cucumber and parmesan cheese, but it tasted fine, even though we were missing some key ingredients. (Gee, I guess the fact that they didn't put the hot with cold items was a huge deal to me cuz normally, I'd be super annoyed they forgot some of the salad ingredients, and I wasn't this time. Go figure.)
As for our entree, we ordered the Drunken Burrata Pizza, which had vodka sauce, prosciutto, and burrata on pizza dough. Whoa, that was so good. I live in Calif., and we honestly don't have a lot of places that offer vodka sauce, and what we do have, it's nothing like what exists on L.I. It is soooooooooooooo delicious and different on L.I., wherever we've had it, from what scarce amounts we can find in CA. Just no comparison whatsoever. Speaking of scarce, I probably would've liked a few more pieces of prosciutto on our pizza. It was looking a bit chinsey, but we made it work anyway.
I know my daughter and son-in-law order from Bar Grazie frequently, so I'm sure we will have the opportunity to eat their food again when visiting. I will look forward to it !!
