    Booked a reservation at LAS with only 15 minutes to spare and the only option available was a high top. Upon arriving to the hostess stand, I asked if a standard table was available as I was with my 8 year old daughter and both hosts accommodated me immediately. We sat in the main dining room at the back and our server Mark was incredibly attentive and kind. He let me know of the specials, the items not listed on the menu like onion rings & the charred broccoli. Everything was tasty as usual. This is my husband and I’s favorite steakhouse so to bring our daughter after Alvin Ailey’s show was really full circle. I always order the wet aged ribeye, opted for the onion rings instead of the fries, lobster Mac and cheese because duh & the charred broccoli. The broccoli was probably my favorite thing AFTER the cheesecake of the day. Yes, dessert is always to be had on a day like today. Thanks everyone for the accommodations tonight with such short, short notice.

    The food was delicious.. I ordered the Oysters Rockefeller without bacon extra cooked, crab cakes and arugula salad. We sat at the bar and the service was great. We went back the next day and the service was impeccable and ordered the baked shrimp and Oysters Rockefeller without bacon and arugula salad. Will go back.

    We had the best table in the building!!! It was my favorite. Love everything about this place minus the small portions and pricing of certain items. 120$ lobster Mac (I get it, it’s 1.5# lobster which is pricey) and 75$ table side carbonara is plain wild. 110$ filet is literal steak house territory without any details on the filet itself. Dry aged? Wet aged? Sourced from? Anyways it’s amazing food but maybe having waiters go in depth on each of these special meals would help sway consumers.

    La Grotta never disappoints. While the food is great, it is the service and pacing that makes the entire experience so wonderful. No pressure to order, no rushing you out after you’re done. Instead of just a meal, it becomes a wonderful event.
