Best pumpkin ravioli ever. The staff are friendly and well informed. Owners are very cautious with food preparation and incredibly knowledgeable. Dessert was fabulous. Best meal and overall experience ever. I will be returning soon.

Tons of gluten free options, all very tasty. I love getting to eat pasta! Asked owner about Amy's poor review, was told husband ordered clams and was unhappy that they were still in shells, wife ordered ravioli and had no complaints. GF pasta was higher priced than regular pasta, but delicious and worth it! Lots of regular menu items are gluten free for no higher price. We will be here often!

While this resturant was knowledgeable about gluten free options, I question the chef's understanding of cross contamination. My food choice was extremely expensive for a mediocre meal and my husband's was inedible. I would not recommend this resturant.

We love Pinocchio's !! We've been coming for years and now my mom (gluten free / dairy free) can enjoy it as well !! The food is wonderful and so is the wine (especially on Thursdays when the wine is half price)!!

My girlfriend had some gluten free ravioli which she loved and I took a bite and was very surprised how wonderful it tasted.

Great homemade Italian food, from a bona fide Italian chef, university trained in Italy, has been cooking for 27 years, at this location for 20. Gluten free options include sauces, most entrees (veal, chicken, grouper, sea bass, flounder, salmon, specials), soups, salads, and desserts. Unfortunately, pizza is not gluten free, but they are working on it! Have eaten here often and never had a bad dish, fantastic food and service!
