Step inside Ristorante Il Grifone and you’ll be transported across the globe. From the wine barrel tables outside to the stunning chandeliers inside, this restaurant truly captures the spirit of Italy.
This spirit carries through to the menu where you can choose from a delicious array of dishes starting with the primi. Who can go past the Caprese, with truss tomatoes, fresh basil leaves and buffalo mozzarella, or the calamari, lightly dusted in flour and tenderly fried?
However, it’s the pasta at Ristorante Il Grifone that will truly leave your tastebuds singing. It’s made fresh in-house, whether you’re having the spaghetti, tossed with fresh market seafood and tomato and sprinkled with gremolata, or the tortelloni pasta pockets filled with spinach and buffalo ricotta and topped with beef ragu.
For secondi, you can choose from a range of seafood dishes or red meat options, including the rosemary-crusted rack of lamb and the prime fillet of beef. Other menu favourites include the chicken filled with mushrooms and seasoned pork meat, and the Grimoud duck fillet served on beetroot and wilted spinach with a red wine reduction.
Finish your meal off with a delicious Italian dessert such as the ever-popular tiramisu or the panna cotta served on a bed of mixed berries. With a menu this tasty and authentic, you’ll be forgiven for thinking you’re in the heart of Italy and not on Newcastle’s foreshore.
