I was tooling around Fremont and got a hankering for some red sauce italian. Grotto at the Golden Nugget was just what i needed. I had the rigatoni bolognese and meatballs. It looked delicious. It didnt blow me away but it was enjoyable. The taste is roughly on par with an Olive Garden but with better presentation in a better atmosphere. The bolognese sauce was on the sweet side and the meatballs were pretty bland. I suppose if you have an aversion to heavy amounts of garlic or cheese then this is ideal. Prepare to augment with grated parmesan or even salt and pepper. Despite the negatives I brought up, i would hit Grotto again next time Im in the area.
