Tavernetta all'Androna

Top choice in Grado


Hidden down a narrow alley behind the basilica, this elegant family restaurant enjoys a tiny piazza all to itself. Take a seat and let your host guide you through the thoughtful menu, which creatively showcases traditional seafood. The sweet mantis shrimp paired with apple and walnut is a triumph, as is the contemporary take on Russian salad with succulent lobster.
