Blu Grotto Italian - Charlotte County

The food is bad. Mural on wall is tacky. The place looks bad overall and needs a makeover. Food was also disappointing. The dish we got looked like someone duped cream of chicken soup on overcooked noodles. Truly a disappointing dining experience.

WAs better go back to original menu and pizza to go and pizza thing as an appetizerPricey last

Awful! We made reservations on the patio yesterday for 5:15 right after the races were over. They sat us on the patio that was covered with Lantern Flies. Within minutes, one landed on my head and several were on and under our table. We asked, along with another table that was seated next to us, if we could go inside. They said no. The other table left. We then asked if we could sit on the other side of the patio away from the side of the building that was covered with the Lantern Flies. They still said no. Not only did they say no, my husband caught the hostesses mocking us because we had asked for another table. When we first complained, the waiter told us that when he was setting up the patio, that they were jumping all over him. So, they knew about the problem and still seated us out there. They made no effort to accommodate us. We got up and left just like the table next to us. It was a Saturday and it was impossible to find another restaurant locally to have dinner. It is a disgrace that they were willing to seat us on a patio knowing full well that it was covered with these bugs and made no apologies about it.

The food is excellent, waiters great and ambiance great.. General Manager Dawn is very competent..
