Horrible and inedible food. I ordered the only vegetarian option they apparently serve. Whoever cooked it completely ruined it, which is startling since it's just so simple to prepare. Here's how you make the dish--saute in extra virgin olive oil, some chopped red onion, some kalamata olives, maybe brocolli or asparagus or both, some sliced red bell peppers, possibly a few artichoke hearts. After about 5 minutes, chop up some fresh tomatoes and add with 2-3 minced garlic cloves and maybe throw in a handful of baby spinach. Let it all marinate for about a minute, and then pour a 1/4 to a 1/2 cup of vegetable broth. Pour over whatever pasta you want and sprinkle with some freshly grated cheese. The version they served was disgusting. The pasta, which the waiter kept saying was handmade, was a sticky mess. The 'sauce' tasted like old dishwater, and the minuscule amount of vegetable were way overcooked. The chef(s) should be ashamed of themselves. I completely understand why Apperitivo (the previous restaurant housed in this space) was shut down by the health inspector, and whoever owns Grano seems to have just changed the name and is still serving the same nasty food that they are charging an arm and a leg for. I ate three bites. I brought a visitor from out of town to this place. If I had been with friends, I would have sent my dish back. The visitor told me she got sick. How embarrassing! Never again will I take anyone to this restaurant!

Had a wonderful meal at grano's during Schenectady restaurant week. Our server Jasmine was friendly, personable and did a superb job helping with the menu,etc. The food came out tasty, hot and well spaced time wise. We had the 4 course special- as someone who is Italian American and has been to Italy,the food was VERY well prepared tasty and plentiful. The desserts looked great,but who had room!!! Will definitely be returning,with or without a special.

I’m Donna Bird, Broker/owner of Bird Realty in Glenville. Every year at Christmas time we gift our agents and their spouses with a formal dinner to say thank you for their dedication to their career and to our brokerage. We have gone to Grano for the past 4 years. Last year because of all the Covid restrictions we were unable to do that, however, we planned an evening once again last night. The food and the service is outstanding. We are always treated like family around the table with delicious homemade entrees that everyone loves! If you haven’t experienced this wonderful restaurant you are missing a big part of life! Thank you Grano once again for a great evening! Donna and Tom Bird - Bird Realty

Most restaurants are like this where the staff all wear masks but diners do not while seated. The staff make an extra effort to maintain a safe and sanitary dining area. It was not apparent they were actually restricting capacity the rooms seemed full. Good is good the four course special is a solid deal.
