Grano Arso
Grano Arso has persevered and thrived to provide some of the most innovative and delectable Italian cuisines in a state where the category is crowded. The ancient turn-of-the-century bank building has a unique private dining room formed from the vault, which was recently utilized to showcase a drink created in collaboration with Highclere Castle Gin of Essex and the Earl and Countess of Carnarvon. Before going on to their characteristic nutty, toasty orecchietta, you should snack on farinata (a chickpea mix between pizza and crêpe) from an iron griddle, topped with grilled eggplant, garlic, tahini, and balsamic vinegar.
Chef Joel Gargano's scratch kitchen utilizes local ingredients and takes a modern yet familiar approach to Italian cooking. Chef Joel grinds native New England grains in-house at Grano Arso to produce an old-world approach to his pasta and bread. Grano Arso is the neighborhood's go-to eatery for wholesome food, Italian wine, local beers, and creative cocktails, all served with warm and informed hospitality.
