The Review: Blue Plate Oysterette
Know something we don't?
Chef Salvatore Marino takes "fresh" to a whole new level with a seductive array of raw seafood at the smartly updated Il Grano. Inspired by his grandmother's Napoli cooking, Marino has bedecked his menu with such rustic Italian offerings as eggplant parmigiana, ravioli al caprese and a variety of simple-yet-hearty pizzas, including the mozzarella and basil-based vera pizza margherita and the pork sausage treat, salsicce 'e friariella.
The elegant dining room features a spare design aesthetic that only serves to accent the colorful plates that come from the kitchen. Crisp white tablecloths, a wall of wine bottles and low, atmospheric lighting make it a perfect place for a relaxed and intimate dinner.
