Normally you will see something like:
http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-live/doc/fine-print.php?path=./03_Disk_to_disk_clone/10-clone-finishes.doc#10-clone-finishes.doc

The grub will be reinstall again. And you should be able to boot the 
restored disk.
If you do not want grub to be install again, enter Expert mode, and 
uncheck "-g auto".
