Ca' Bianca Ristorante Italiano

This place is not celiac safe. I told my waiter at the beginning that I had a gluten allergy. From there I ordered the Burrata as an appetizer, a NY strip steak special for dinner, and I had the panna cotta for dessert. Aside from getting glutened (feeling the effects now), the food was way overpriced for its quality. The burrata was a joke, tiny little piece of cheese cut in half for $16, the steak was eh, and the panna cotta dessert which our server told us was gluten free came out with unidentified crumbles on top. When we asked him he said he’d check with the kitchen and apparently the kitchen wasn’t 100% sure of what was in the crumble so they remade it without the crumble… I said I had had a gluten allergy / celiac so it seems they don’t have good or any allergy protocols. Also the panna cotta tasted like Yakut(yogurt), and was tiny… it wasn’t good. Not safe for celiac, way overpriced; and mediocre food.

— Below Average

They can make almost anything on the menu gluten free, and they do make their own GF pasta in-house! I can’t speak to safety because, although I’m celiac, I fortunately don’t have hardly any noticeable symptoms.

The staff seemed very knowledgeable about gluten free dining needs. The menu is not marked, nor do they have a separate gluten free menu, but I felt comfortable ordering with the help of our waiter. They have gluten free fettuccini noodles that can be paired with many of their gluten free sauces. I tried the gluten free fettuccini with their daily special - smoked chicken with spinach and peppers in a light tomato sauce, and it was divine! Quite a few of their entrees are also gluten free. I tried their gluten free polenta appetizer as well, and it was delicious. This place is gluten free friendly and the food is excellent. I am sensitive to gluten and feel fine after eating there.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Heaven for celiacs and other GF folks who love authentic Italian food. They have excellent GF pasta to pair with a large selection of their delicious sauces, as well as plenty of other options.

Excellent Italian food. GF pasta that they take the time to cook properly. Knowledgeable staff and kitchen.
