Yes it does reduce airflow and increase coolant temps under some conditions. Some owners have removed them because of that and some say it makes no difference. It probably varies depending upon your climate and use of the car.

Do you have access to an industrial fan? Place the grille between your face and the fan. Then away. Case closed. Good for keeping bugs off the radiator though.
