I am over due in writing this review! My husband and I have been here twice, in Sept and November of 2019. Both times were nothing short of fantastic! I had hot gluten free bread with olive oil, chicken Marsala, and fantastic homemade lemon sorbet. I am allergic to dairy and gluten, which can be really challenging. Both meals were unbelievably delicious, and honestly it was like my allergies didn’t even exist! We met the owner both times, and will definitely be back! Highly recommend!!

Such an nice place with a good atmosphere. Almost everything on their menu can be made gluten free! They also had dairy free options if needed. Staff was knowledgeable, a little slow but we weren’t in a rush. There gluten free bread was the best I’ve ever had! I had a side Cesar salad and scallop risotto, it was delicious. No issues at all. If I ever pass through again I’ll definitely be going back!

The staff was more than knowledgeable about gluten free options including cross contamination concerns. Several people working at the restaurant have allergies, sensitivities, or celiac. I have an intolerance/sensitivity and my friend has a severe allergy (vomits for days). We both ate the delicious food with no reaction. Bonus: great atmosphere and a lot of gf choices!

I live 2 hours away from this place, and have made trips around dining here! Love love love love LOVE this place.

I'm celiac but not overly sensitive. I'm of Italian descent, from NY, and miss this cuisine like crazy.

They will give you GF bread with an upcharge. Not bad, but it's worth being able to finally share bread with the other non-GF people at the table!

The staff is extremely knowledgable and very polite. It's an old building so it is densely packed and loud, but I enjoy that atmosphere.

I love the cacciatore. It's outstanding. The mussels are also a delight.

My partner says their martinis are excellent. :)

One thing to note - if you have leftovers, ask if you can box it yourself. My partner had a non-GF meal and regular bread to box up. I had my GF meal to box up. They put his bread on my GF meal. We didn't know until we went to have leftovers the next day. I was able to pluck off the bread and crumbs with zero reaction. That's fine for me, but might cause others an issue. Be careful if you have leftovers!

Wonderful food and really great people. They have a gluten free menu and don't make you feel bad about asking for one. Our kids loved it! My son, who usually reacts, seems to feel good. Such a great experience!

We were visiting from out of town with our dog and needed a place with outdoor seating. I'm also gluten-free. We found this unbelievable gem. We called and they made us a reservation. Upon arrival, the staff was very inviting and brought us a large gluten-free menu and water for our dog. I chose chicken abruzzo. It was absolutely the best sauce I've ever had. The garlic pasta side was cooked to perfection which is difficult with gf pasta. We ended the meal with locally made spumoni. The whole meal was so delicious affordable and the service was top notch!

They baked us fresh GF bread (for all 5 of us) and even provided a GF dessert which was so wonderful, we ordered a second round (GF yellow cake with vanilla bean glaze, coconut and sliced almonds). Our service was superb and they were so accommodating. It is a very nice restaurant but they welcomed our younger children with coloring books and toys. This place is beyond awesome!
