We offer free tastings at our restaurant Girasole Grill, in Pleasanton. Tastings are by appointment only and normally held Tuesday - Thursday, in the evenings. We are flexible, so please ask about making other arrangements, if necessary. We have a 'standard' tasting package that allows you to try three different salads, two types of pastas, a stuffed chicken breast and two types of potatoes. Our main purpose at our tastings is to foster confidence in us to prepare any dish on our menu for your guests and know that you and your guests will both enjoy and feel satisfied about the food. If you have a particular type of dish, cuisine or theme in mind, we would be more than happy to accommodate you.

Please fill out and submit the 'Contact Us' page to schedule a tasting appointment.

We look forward to serving you.
