Review of Bellona

Celiacs beware: don't eat here. This is a vegetarian/vegan Italian restaurant that offers gluten free pasta and pizza on the menu. Unfortunately, the cross-contamination risk is very high (they won't boil fresh water for pasta) and they made me feel very unwelcomed. I went with friends for a birthday, one of whom is vegan, and the manager told me that I couldn't eat there and was quite incredulous that I came to an Italian restaurant when I was celiac. It was a sad experience. I had a salad but it wasn't very good.
