Review of Agata & Valentina

I just revisited Agata. They just keep adding wonderful options in their prepared food area. (fully gluten free showcase) They added more fresh pasta as well. The bakery also keeps adding new items such as pastries and breakfast goodies. What a treat it’s all gluten free and delicious. I just had their Broioche French toast warmed with syrup and my son had their egg and cheese on a bun. They have stools inside and outside tables now too. Any caputo flour used is safe, they don’t exceed the legal threshold for celiac.

Today was Agata & Valentina’s grand opening for their second location (2,000 square feet of space) across the street from their store at 1513 First Avenue at 79th Street in NYC. All the prepared food at this location is FULLY gluten free! The store offers prepared foods similar to their other store, grocery items, a pizza bar, pastries, breads, coffee bar, ice cream and more. Many products from Italy. It was amazing, they have turkey meatballs chicken tenders and chicken cutlets, turkey burgers, fried zucchini, fresh homemade pizza (which we ate once we got home and it was incredibly good!), fresh pastas, homemade ciabatta and focaccia and so much more! The croissant and the cheesecake were delicious. They also offer a lot of vegan and dairy free options.
