Reserve a Table See the Menu Our Story Four years in the making. A lifetime in the pot. Growing up, we rarely ate out. My parents cooked, and nothing ever tasted quite like home. So we opened The Grotto to give Bed-Stuy, and beyond, a seat at our family&#39;s dining table. After a year away rebuilding and expanding, we&#39;re back! Bigger, better, but still rooted in the same family, recipes, and traditions that started it all. Mom and Dad are 80 and 81, and they&#39;re still in the kitchen every day, making the food that raised us and now, we get to share it with you. “I love to cook. I love to see people enjoy their food and clean their plate. So I&#39;m passing it on.”Chef Mommy A Look InsideThe Table The MenuWhat&#39;s Cooking Modern Caribbean. Rooted in legacy.
