Grasso is an independent, family run Italian American restaurant at 81 Dean Street in Soho. The kitchen draws on the family’s Sicilian roots and the red sauce restaurants of New York, serving generous, familiar food in a lively central London dining room.
Pasta sauces are prepared in house, including a slow cooked lamb ragù for rigatoni and the restaurant’s signature penne alla vodka. Spaghetti and meatballs follows a third generation family recipe, while lobster linguine and other seasonal dishes extend the pasta selection.
Pizza dough is fermented for 48 hours to balance a crisp base with a chewy edge, then topped and cooked to order. Chicken parm, Caesar salad, mozzarella sticks, antipasti and other East Coast Italian American favourites make it easy to combine several dishes at the table.
Desserts are made by the family, with New York cheesecake providing a fitting finish alongside wine, signature cocktails, draught beer and no or low alcohol drinks. Gluten free pasta and pizza bases are available, but guests with allergies should still discuss shared kitchen preparation with the team.
Address: 81 Dean Street, London W1D 3SW, England
