Went to try the gluten free gnocchi. It was good but not amazing. The panna cotta for dessert was incredible 10/10 panna cotta

Worth the hype. The gnocchi is magical like how is it that fluffy and maintains structural integrity? Wow. They were very knowledgeable about allergies- and when they brought bread for my partner they brought complimentary little rolls of grilled artichoke with fresh mozzarella in them as my alternative. There are also so many gf desserts and cocktails too

was excited to come here because of the reviews, but theres not many veggie options, and the pasta was a bit underwhelming. the gnocchi is where its at. we must have also gone on an off night as we did not have the warm and gracious welcome others did. we had bread delivered as we sat down, and wasnt asked about allergies when we declined it. no complementary anything which is totally fine and not expected, but our server was quite distracted and i had to double check if my pasta was safe because he wasnt very clear if they would take precautions. regardless, i didnt feel sick after so thats a win!

Echoing what others have said. The Gnocchi is amazing. Some of the best I've had. Also definitely get the polenta antipasti dish. Absolute heaven. Service was wonderful as well and the restaurant has a great cozy, neighborhoody and unpretentious vibe.

GO HERE! AMAZING!!! The second i sat down I was asked about allergies. I said I had a gluten allergy and the waiter listed all the gluten free options, informed me the pasta was all cooked separately and then brought be a special gluten free app instead of bread!! The food was amazing. Almost all of it can be made gluten free. The service was incredible, I tipped almost 30% because I was so impressed. Incredibly knowledgeable and helpful staff, fantastic food and a great vibe all around. Wish I lived here so I could come here all the time!!!

Softest gnocchi of my life, like melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Had 5 different GF gnocchi options to choose from and they had GF penne as well. We had beef carpaccio and a ceaser salad for appetizers and were given a complimentary panna cotta for dessert. The staff here were so friendly and entertaining, would 100% come back.

Our server was very knowledgeable on the menu, and what was gluten free and what wasn’t. She gave us grilled polenta instead of bread, without being asked. I had gf gnocchi and it was amazing! All pastas can be made gf, and the gnocchi is all gf already.

All their gnocchis are gluten free without substitutions. The one made with spinach, Gorgonzola bechamel, and mushrooms was incredible! I also tried the Sorrentina and it wasn’t nearly as good. I had no gluten reaction. My friends had gluteny pasta dishes that they loved. Definitely a good place to take a small group, but be sure to make a reservation.

Absolutely best GF experience at an Italian restaurant. Staff was not only very knowledgeable but extremely friendly. Service was excellent, food was amazing. I split the gnocchi as an appetizer and had the Not Carbonara with GF penne as my main. My husband who is not GF ordered a non GF dish (Chicken Picatta) and said it was by far the best he'd had. We're visiting from out of town but will be back next time we're here.

The manager said their gluten free pastas aren’t safe for celiacs. You have a choice of 2 seafood entries. The server didn’t know how to order for a celiac and had to call over the manager. Whenever a manager tells you they can’t “guarantee” against cross contamination you know it’s not a good place for celiacs. Very very pricey and it was an hour before we got our food. One of those places I was so sure I would get sick from but luckily didn’t, would have been terrible barfing up an entree that was $40 for 4 pieces of fish.

Was excited to go here after reading the positive reviews. We had a fun evening but our Carbonara was a small,cold lump of sticky, dry spaghetti. Would of sent it back but did not want to ruin the vibe of the evening. Service was slow , but friendly and the total bill was very pricey .
