Review of Biaggi's Ristorante Italiano

Review


I tried Biaggi's through takeout and ordered online through the gluten free menu options. I had a safe experience and felt totally fine. However, I was disappointed in the taste of my food and the options on the menu. I saw from another review that the pizza might not be totally safe for celiacs, and the pasta options were limited. It really surprises me they don't offer a pesto sauce. A lot of celiacs can't tolerate a full cream or Alfredo sauce, and the only other option for pasta was fettuccine with meatballs and marinara. The fettuccine was overdone, and the red sauce was not very good at all. I was also disappointed that the meatballs were super sausagey instead of a beef meatball - just a preference, I know, but it would be good to be aware or note on the menu. I only ate 1/4 or 1/3 of my meal and due to the flavor and the other options available, I wouldn't go back despite the safety.
