Grasings

We had a very nice birthday dinner. The restaurant is in a great location and the food was all prepared perfectly. The old fashioned cocktail was also very well made. I am looking forward to my next trip.

I had the pleasure of dining at Grasing’s recently with some work colleagues. I’ve been in the Carmel area for the 27 years they’ve been in operation and known their reputation. This was the first time I’ve experienced it myself. The manager, Magdi, was kind, professional, personable, and attentive. The same goes for the servers Stephen and Andy. Even my welcome from the hostess, Samara was welcoming and professional. My group enjoyed a little something from every portion of the menu. The raw Ahi was amazing and fresh, same with the crispy Spanish octopus. The affogato was wonderful as well. I really don’t know if I’ve ever had a better meal.

I had photographed a wedding rehearsal party in their private room upstairs, and it was fantastic! Amazing natural light during the day, and the cozy atmosphere was just perfect for their party. The service was on point, and the food was delicious as well!

Delicious food for what we could eat... Finding bones in the fish special is a turn off! Then being told its normal and do nothing to fix it, not okay for a quality restaurant. The steak was cooked to temp, but very tough and hard to cut with the dual knife with the tendon that ran through it. We were super excited to eat here, but unfortunately wont be back.

We don't get to Carmel often, but when we do, we come to Grasings. The service, food, atmosphere, pacing...everything...everything in not just good, it's perfection. The depth of the wine list is incredible. I highly recommend steak, but everything is great. And if you are celebrating a special occasion, they do it up in style!
