We stumbled on this lovely Italian restaurant in a town where it seems half the eating establishments are Italian. We have lived in Bologna for several years and can admittedly be Italian food snobs. And yet, we left La Grappa molti content. During our visit,they had several specials featuring Summer Truffles. My wife had a cream soup seasoned with shaved truffles that was not too heavy and that featured the truffles well. My risotto, though slightly more al dente than one finds in the best Italian restaurants, was still very flavorful and had just the right blend of truffles and beef mixed in. The waiters at La Grappa were also kind enough to alter a couple of dishes to meet the persnickety standards of our kids. Both kids were very happy with their meals. One other bonus was the fact that La Grappa features Pilsner Urquell on tap ("zum Fass"). Our only real regret was not having ordered the tagliatelle dish that the waiters kept finishing in a giant mozzerella cheese mold. It appeared to be a masterwork method of preparing a cheesy pasta dish. La Grappa faces a lovely, rebuilt square in the old part of Eisenach, and appeared to have an outdoor beer garden/dining area, as well. A lovely experience. read more

It's friendly, lively (overcrowded actually), with a nice wine selection and and superb pasta dishes! Beers: avoid the unpasteurized Pilsner Urquell - not the place to drink it They have really good special seasonal offers. The tagliatelle with chanterelles and suckling pig in tomato sauce - very good - with a 2007 Cannonau di Sardegna The antipasti plate, pizza La Grappa and a bottle of the Masi Campofiorin (ripasso) - delicious!!! The espresso here - Chapeau! My oh my!!! Loved it! (Would not bother to post it otherwise). read more

I would not give this place any stars. The staff is very rude. We tried to find a place to eat while we visited this town with our dogs and they are not as friendly, and we just wanted to sit in their outdoor biergarten. read more

Not the best in Eisenach... There are other very good restaurants in this town and this is one that stands in the top ten list! Problem is the list about ten restaurants long... Expensive and simply not good. The food tastes liked heated canned food. You have been warned... read more
