Trattoria Appia

Literally one of the worst restaurant experiences of my life was today, trying to take my 85 year old mom somewhere for Easter and we left with her in TEARS! My salmon entree arrived and I peeled off the fish skin and the old dead fish smell hit me! Like something that has been in the trash a few days. New menu and since nothing is marked separately gluten free it's up to the servers to know and trust the kitchen. So I'm stuck ordering the chicken Marsala, by the time it arrived via a busser unmarked my mom was finished with her dinner. Again I had to ask if it was gf safe and the busser ran off, server showed up and couldn't confirm it so off to the trash it went. We are so done and clearly never coming back. Everything was comped except for the wine, and we tipped the server because the kitchen is a hot mess! It is time this place reassessed it's entire ServSafe procedure.
