    Our lunch at Grasing's was very good. We both had salads, my wife having the Beet Salad and I having the Iceberg Wedge with blue cheese and bacon. We are both pretty picky and were both delighted with our salads, my wife feeling that her beet salad was one of the best presented and tasting salads she'd had in quite a while. The service overall, esp. refilling water, was very good and attentive. The dining room we were in, though well-attended, was not at all noisy and we were able to hear each other talk, which is a rarity these days. Great spot and don't hestiate to recommend for anyone in Carmel looking for a great lunch experience.

    We had an outstanding meal on Wednesday night. The bar was fun to sit at and eat. We were able to choose from the bar menu or the dining menu. We had excellent salads. The beet salad was unbelievable in flavor. My husband had a delicious filet and I had the filet of sole. So good!!

    We had a wonderful experience. The service was outstanding and the food was delicious. We also received a hand written card for our anniversary and a doggy menu (+dog bed) were lovely extra touches.

    Service was great and the food was delicious. Order the special T-bone steak and halibut, both were cooked perfectly. Crispy pork belly and truffle fries to start were very tasty. Beer selection was good & I had the best Hefeweizen. Great place to dine in Carmel.
