    I have eaten here several times and enjoyed both the food and the experience. It was a bit congested today, particularly as we were seated very close to where counter seats were located. The food I ordered required a substitute due to something not being available, which was a disappointment, but additional shrimp was offered and accepted as a substitute. The waitress was very competent and friendly. Valet service was timely and professional as previously experienced.

    Ton and Trey were excellent servers and were very warm and welcoming. They took excellent care of us and even had their manager, Todd, help us with an extra question we had. We really appreciated Todd taking the time to talk to us! Probably one of the best times we have been to Graces!

    Great place for a New Year's dinner, menu was good (high quality standard, not unique). Service was very good even when the live music was really loud in the echo-y space. Seating was ok, live music was loud but good quality for New Year's. The main concern was that the OpenTable app said the prix fixe meal would be $69 per person, but the price climbed up to $89 upon receipt of the bill. Then we were charged $30 for service TWICE. So the final total $149 per person, not the original $69 we were expecting. I would not recommend this place if you are not prepared to pay twice as much as what we saw when we first signed on. This would have been very different if the actual advertised price simply included all of these charges so that we could make an assessment fairly.
