Angela provided exceptional service, Matthew greeted us and seated us right away, and Diane made me two of the best Woodford Reserve Manhattans I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this place!

My experience at Gracie's was even more satisfying than I had anticipated. Gracie's had been on my list of Want To Go places and NOW Gracie's is on my list of Want To Go Back places. On my way to Gracie's, I wondered what they had for appetizers and I was thinking of deviled eggs. I also had been craving scallops for some time but I also like other seafood and all kinds of fish. Much to my surprise Gracie's had both deviled eggs and scallops as appetizers. I ordered both and made these my dinner that night. When I go back for dinner, I will choose from their variety of thoughtful menu selections. Some of these tasteful, hearty entrees include prime ribs, gnocchi potatoes, shrimp and fish. The deviled eggs were full of flavor from just the right amount of diced jalapenos and topped with real bacon. The pan seared scallops (an appetizer of three huge scallops) were served with a delicious sauce on a plate that was artistically prepared. I ate the blackberry on top before I took a picture but Gracie's owner gladly provided another blackberry because it deserved an as presented picture. Gracie's is easy to find, centrally located in downtown Middletown. Gracie's has a warm ambiance atmosphere, is tastefully decorated, with a variety of seating including the cozy type. Gracie's prepares food to perfection and excellent presentation.

For appetizers, we ordered the pimento cheese and deviled eggs, both of which were excellent. I chose the salmon for my main course, and it was hands down the best salmon I've ever had—cooked to perfection. Everyone in our party enjoyed their meals as well. Overall, it was an incredible experience, and I highly recommend this restaurant.

The staff was very friendly, competent, and professional—both the host and server definitely deserve five stars! I ordered the burger, and it was hands down the best burger you can get in Middletown! I've noticed many reviews mention the limited menu, but I think it's a smart approach. It helps to focus on quality and reduce food waste. Maybe they could introduce a "meal of the month" to keep things fresh? I also read a lot of complaints about the prices, but come on—you're paying for good food! Plus, my Bud Light was only $3, so I can't complain!

It has now reopened, after closing due to Covid, as mostly a patio dining experience. They now has a QR code for ordering, BUT you can get table service if you request it. They have reduced their menu to accommodate for having less staff, but the food quality is as good as ever. I highly recommend the Chicken Marsala and the Skewer Trio. Their Brussel Sprouts and Pimento Cheeseball appetizers are Gracie's classics. The new patio is charming and the perfect place to gather with friends or family. The bartenders are great and their new summer cocktails are fantastic and make for a perfect Girls Night Out.
