Another first from the first family of fine Italian cuisine in Memphis—Judd Grisanti combines his heritage, growing up in the renowned Grisanti family, and his passion for cooking into Judd Grisanti’s Trattoria. Now at his father’s former restaurant, where he had once cooked with his family, Judd carries on the 100-year family tradition. In a trattoria style setting, Judd continues to cook “Antico de Nuovo”, were he makes old Italian dishes new again.

The cooking in the best trattorias in Italy can be said to be as good as that in the home, because most are family-run. Judd Grisanti’s Trattoria is a warm Italian-style eating establishment where the emphasis is on steady clientele and plentiful Italian food. Judd Grisanti’s is comfortably domestic, with homey decorative touches, personal pictures on the walls, and the food is seasonal, simply cooked, always tasty, and always the focus.
