Cinzzetti's Italian Market Restaurant

We went for my daughter’s birthday the other day and I wasn’t planning to eat since it’s an Italian buffet. However, our server was amazing and brought the head chef out. He walked me around to every station and told me what I could and couldn’t have. Since the house salad has bacon and cheese, he even made me one from scratch. We were there at brunch, so the omelet station was perfect and there were a lot of salads and veggie dishes. There were way more options than I imagined! No pasta or pizza, but tons of other stuff.

Food wasn’t bad but not many GF options. Cook at pasta station didn’t speak Spanish and the most professional looking employee there (working pizza station) told me to go to the pasta station.

not a lot, but staff is extremely helpful. even will make something special when they can.

disappointing

Absolutely one of the best restaurants I've ever been to in my life! It has a nice atmosphere. Offers a lot of food. I'm Italian so I can never get enough food. I think I could fill up several plates of food and never get the same thing twice. Yes this is a marketplace restaurant. It's like a buffet only super clean and better food than anywhere else for even twice the price. The house salad is especially good.

Took a group of 20 students here for a banquet. Chef gave me a tour of the buffet and pointed out what was safe to eat. The selections are limited. It’s mostly red sauce and meats, potatoes, and vegetables. They will make a gluten free pasta while you wait, ice cream is the only dessert. I was leery of the salad bar because it’s so easy to use tongs in the wrong bowl. I managed to not get sick, which surprised me. However the amount of salt in the food was overpowering and I skipped the dessert as I was worried the scoop would be cross contaminated.

I am gluten and dairy free and I am so impressed with this place. I’ve been coming here for years and years before I found out about my gluten intolerance and dairy allergy, but haven’t been back since because I figured there was nothing to eat. Boy was I wrong! Soooo many options. Chef was incredibly accommodating, walking me around to eat station. They special made ALL of my food to order, even dessert. So happy with my experience.

I've eaten here several times with no issues. The staff is very knowledgeable and the tour is great. I ate here Tuesday night, and had severe reactions. I ate the same foods I had before. I suspect some serving spoon got switched, or another customer dropped something into the otherwise safe food. Buffets are dangerous. I should have known better!

Celiac friendly?

No

Make sure and ask for a gluten free tour. Someone will walk you around personally and let you know what is safe to eat. Very impressed!!

The manager and head chef will give you a tour and help you pick out what is safe! They also have gluten free pasta on request.
