We started the meal with calamari, which was lightly breaded (which is great) but in general the calamari were tough and rubbery. They should be sweet and tender. The sauce that came with the calamari was good. The Italian salad was a lnice mix of field greens and Kalamata olives with a tiny amount of shaved Parmesan and a pepperoncino. The meatballs are very "breadie", hence not good. The worst part they were served without sauce on top so they were grey and unappealing. Seriously...why? The wine list is good. Two of us had the mixed cheese Ravi's....with red sauce and they were tasty. One in our party had the stuffed shells with mixed fish which he enjoyed. Our fourth had a dish with white mushroom sauce which she really enjoyed. We all shared the lemonchello cake which was tasty. Our server was quite nice and friendly. The ambience was lovely. We sat outside under the grape arbors. Very Nice. In general the food was acceptable but not stellar for the reasons cited.

Despite its…read morepopularity and the amount of people that arrived when they opened at 4pm, the servers handled it well. The atmosphere is great with a large variety of choices to pick from. I got the salmon Alfredo and my friend got the Fettucini Bologonese. There was a little blip as my Alfredo came out with shrimp instead of the salmon I ordered but it was rectified quite easily. We picked our food from a tablet that showed pictures and prices. The salad with cranberries.walnuts and gorgonozola cheese was very good. We were both pleased and were so hungry that I didn't take pictures. We had left early in the morning due to the weather to attend our early afternoon show. The sangria was also very good and I liked how it came in ready to pour individual bottles. We were offered a shot of lemon cello for the road but had to decline due to the 2 1/2 hour ride home. It was a good thing also as we had a few slick spots on the freeway on the way home. Thanks Gratzi for the wonderful dinner and in a rare case there was absolutely no leftovers.

I dined at Gratzi on a Monday evening hosting a work dinner for 10 people. I chose Gratzi for the…read moredinner because it's one of the few premier restaurants in small town Midland as far as ambience and selection. The interior of the restaurant is nice and suitable for a date night, special occasion, or work event. This time I had the Parmigiano di Coregone. I appreciated the crust on the whitefish filet, but the flavor was underwhelming. It needed extra seasoning (salt and pepper) to bring it up to par with the lemon-caper butter. The Costolette Brasate was too cheesy to the point where it consumed the taste of the slow roasted beef short rib. The calamari was the highlight of the night. Cocktails selection was good, with average strength. Service was a bit slow and I didn't expect that for a party of 10 on a Monday night. Overall 6/10.

I got the new lobster grinder and it was 10 dollars I believe which is acutally lower than a lot of chain. The service wasn't super fast which is expected since it's a normal kitchen with out a streamline staff but man oh man when I got my hands on that grinder it was perfectly toasted with just the right amount of toppings as to not over power each other and the flavor was top of the line. Price to flavor no chain restaurant beats it nor does higher end restaurants. TLDR: if you want a grinder or a sub sandwich this is place. I can't speak for the pizza but I would come back.

The menu has a variety of offerings but doesn't break any new ground in terms of unique or different options seen on menus everywhere else. The whitefish dinner was very good; cooked perfectly and with good flavor. The fries were so-so; excessive coating, didn't really taste like potatoes, and probably from the same supplier as a number of other places in town. Overall a decent experience and would likely go back

They've got a great mix of pinball machines, old-school arcade classics, and some newer games, so it doesn't feel like a museum, it actually feels alive. You can bounce between games, grab a drink, and just hang out without it feeling forced. What really surprised me though was the food. I expected typical bar food, but they go way beyond that. The brunch is legit, and the menu has some creative dishes that actually feel thought out, not just thrown together. It's the kind of place where you come for the games and end up staying for the food. The staff are super friendly and bring a fun energy without being over the top. It also strikes a nice balance crowd-wise. During the day, it's totally a spot you could bring your kids and let them have a blast, and later on it shifts into more of a social hangout where you can meet locals and vibe. Overall, it's just a really well done arcade bar that doesn't try too hard but still delivers on everything. Definitely worth checking out.

On a Thursday night, I ordered the Philly cheese steak and sweet potatoe fries. The fries were…read moreamazing and I love that they gave two different sizes baskets for it, one to hold the fries and another for ketchup. The Philly cheese steak however was disappointing. The meat was over cooked and dried. They placed onions and cheese on top. Maybe it's a personal preference but I like the cheese and vegetables mixed in with the meat. The bread was basic. I used a lot of ketchup so it would not taste/feel too dry while I was eating it. I did try one of their drinks and the Michigan Mule was very weak and flat, had ginger ale, to me. This is an arcade bar and had a lot of pinball machines. But it wasn't overbearing loud. There's cute gaming decor all around and the hallway to the bathroom is interesting to look at. They were full of drawing and random statements from previous customers. There were some children running around so def a place for all ages. I think this place is more about the pinball machines than the food. Haha. The waiter did a great job balancing our side of the building with huge parties. There is free parking out front.
