Was staying at the Golden Nugget and decided to try Grotto for happy hour. I didn't have food, but did have one of their specialty drinks - Chambord bellini. I'm not one for fruity drinks, but that Chambord bellini was awesome! All three of them... My sisters were with me and food as well as drinks - they both enjoyed... More

Located right in the middle of the Golden Nugget casino floor, which gives Gratto a lively and festive atmosphere. Staff is very friendly, everyone seems to enjoy working here. Our waiter was great, one of the best we've had in a long time. Food is definitely up to par. The fresh warm bread is great dipped in the garlic olive... More

Spent 3 nights at the Golden Nugget last week and the Grotto was a great surprise. I take annual trips to Atlantic city and stay at the Golden Nugget all the time. Last year we sat and had dinner at the grotto and the food was great and the Service equal. This year we decided to sit in the Bar... More

Decided to have a late night snack, wasn't sure what we wanted and noticed the Grotto had a late happy hour, decided on appetizers and drinks. Ordered the stuff mushrooms which were awesome, also decided to order a small pizza, very thin crust which we enjoyed very much. Would definitely eat here again.

We enjoyed our dinner at the Grotto. Service was great. Food was well prepared and served quickly. We had canniloni (excellent) parmesan chicken (excellent) lasagna (ok, but no one makes it like Mama does) Tiramisu (excellent) The only draw back for me was the atmosphere. You are stuck right in the middle surrounded by slot machines.

This Italian restaurant is part of the Landry chain. It is physically inside of the casino a few feet higher than the surrounding casino. It is an enjoyable place to eat.

Calamari was so tender. They serve crispy bread with seasoned oil. I had The Pollo Estate which was so tasty, my boyfriend got a shrimp special of the night, also very good. Our server then brought the dessert cart. OMG. We were stuffed but couldn't turn down dessert. I got tiramisu and my b/f got the strawberry cheesecake, both were... More
