Grano Arso
Connecticut
Grano Arso is Joel and Lani Gargano's Italian restaurant on Main Street in Chester. The kitchen draws on seasonal produce and relationships with local farms, applying a traditional approach to dishes with rustic flavours and considered presentation. Joel mills New England grains in house for pasta and bread. Dinner can be explored through the chef's tasting menu or other changing selections. The bar serves seasonal and classic cocktails, wines from around the world and local beer. Lani leads the guest experience, while Joel's background as the son of Italian bakers connects the restaurant's cooking with his early life in a family bakery.
