Grano Pasta Bar

One of the best restaurants in Baltimore! Great for special occasions like birthdays, date nights, anniversaries etc. or when you feel like treating yourself :) I have been going here since three yrs ago and the food is still delicious! I tried a few different pasta dishes but my favorite and go-to is linguine positano, or the clam pasta. It doesn’t have sauce like tomato sauce or cream sauce but it is so flavorful and light in a good way. I love clams so much that I wish it came with more clams lol but objectively speaking they give you a good amount of clams as in you can get 1-2 clams in every mouthful which I say is p fair and generous in this economy. I love the vibes here, it’s very chill as in they don’t require a formal attire but the mood still feels special with a bit dimmed lights and tablecloths and cloth napkins. The service is very pleasant, I never had a bad experience here everyone is polite and nice.

Whenever we are in the mood for pasta, Grano pasta bar is our favorite. The pasta is perfectly cooked and portions are generous. I especially like the pasta with shrimp and my husband likes the pasta with meatballs. We also very much enjoy the bruschetta appetizer and tiramisu. This place is a gem! P.S. During another visit, we shared an excellent salad with anchovies and I had the calamari with linguine while my husband had the linguine with clams. We ended our delicious dinner with a large portion of tiramisu and expressos. Everything was so delicious!!!

Enjoyed the pasta a lot. Not the best place for young kids and strollers. Difficult to get in and out of. Service wasn't great that night. Forgot an order of appetizers and slow at times. They weren't even that busy but we were tucked aside because of the stroller and kids so maybe a bit forgotten. Vodka sauce was tasty. The eggplant lasagna was good. Bread with garlic olive oil was nice and garlicky.

I don’t even know what to say. I have a gluten allergy and am generally wary of trying new gluten free pasta, but I tried the salmon pasta special at Grano Pasta Bar and was past blown away. The sauce, flavor and amount of food were all great. That and the blood orange soda were very delicious and will definitely have me returning.

It was absolutely wonderful, me and my friend loved the food and the warm cozy atmosphere. We started off with the bread and the dipping oil had just the right amount of kick and flavor and the texture of the bread was incredible, I had the carbonara and it was incredibly creamy and had just the right amount of saltiness. The service was incredible too, would 100% recommend for a filling, warm dinner.
