Fodor's Expert Review Grappa

Dorado's most charming restaurant—and perhaps the most appealing one on the North Coast—Grappa is spectacular, both in design and on the plate. Specializing in Italian fare, the kitchen staff makes pasta by hand, and it's served with fruits of the sea or delicious, tender beef. The setting is romantic and intimate, serving their meals in a small dining room. Reservations are essential and the service exceeds all expectations.
