Goat Pepper Fry - if you're a spicy-food lover, this is the dish you must order here…read more Due to family commitments, I couldn't visit this place when it first opened in my city--but better late than never, right? We went on a cold Sunday night, and to my surprise, the place looked completely deserted. It immediately felt more like a takeaway spot than a proper dine-in restaurant. The paper plates, plastic cutlery, and overall setup confirmed it. And yes--my guess was right. Their business model is clearly focused on takeaway / online orders / to-go, with very little emphasis on dine-in even though they have 6-7 tables that could seat around 28 people. It's just not their priority, it seems. Anyway, I ordered at the counter: Goat Pepper Fry I honestly can't recall having a better version anywhere. Rajni's version comes close, but this one wins in consistency and flavor. Absolutely worth it. Pachi Mirchi Kodi Biryani- Let's not call it biryani--because it's not. But as a dish? Fantastic. It's more like chicken gravy mixed with rice, and it tastes really good. but its miles away from being called BIRYANI. I'm a big mutton/lamb/goat and biryani lover. Most people hesitate to try goat at restaurants due to the smell, but I always give it a shot--knowing I'll be disappointed 70% of the time. This time, it paid off. Overall, I'd give them a 4/5, but: * I'm deducting 1/2 star for hygiene. Even if dine-in isn't their focus, the restaurant still needs basic cleaning. Tables, stands, and doors were visibly dirty. * Another 1/2 star for the paper plates and plastic cutlery. I can't enjoy biryani with tiny plastic spoons--they practically cut your lips. So technically it's 3/5, but that Goat Pepper Fry is such a highlight that I'm pushing it back to 4/5. I'll definitely be trying more items from them.

Very tasty biriyani. Definitely one of the better ones that I've had. Only complaint was that it…read morewas a little too salty. Ordered the chicken fry option, and there was a generous amount of chicken. I couldn't even finish the dish. Its a very casual setup: order at counter, paper plates. They also had some free chai tea the night I visited. It's in a lot with ample parking. Will definitely be adding this place to the rotation.

We hired Grace & Grit to cater our wedding at a house we rented, on the Long Island Sound, in East…read moreMarion, on June 23, 2018. We were determined to support a locally owned business, run by women, especially because of their reputation as an exemplary catering service. I met with Sam, and, she was most accommodating in working with me, on the perfect menu, for the thirty close friends and family we planned to have in attendance. We were only in need of food preparation and delivery services, and she was instrumental in making that happen. We were beyond thrilled with the quality of the offerings that Grace & Grit presented for our gathering. The colorful displays of the farmstand platter and fruit presentation gave voice to the season's offerings. Delectable dishes, such as the braised short ribs, duck confit, and seared flounder, brought much well deserved praise from our guests. The vegetable "side dishes" of roasted cauliflower, marinated wild mushrooms, and ginger glazed carrots, to name a few, were just as well received as the entrees. It was all delicious from start to finish. We are so grateful to Grace & Grit for sharing their incredible culinary talents with us. We highly recommend their services for your next event.

They catered our wedding and it was done to absolute perfection. The cocktail hour food was…read moreeverything we were hoping for. The cocktails were perfect all night! The dinner came out hot, incredibly delicious, and in record time for all guests (200+ person wedding) we can't say enough good things about grace & grit + staff! Amazing food. Amazing drinks. Amazing staff. They take it seriously and they know what they're doing! They truly helped make our wedding day everything we could've imagined and more.
