Colombo's Cafe & Pastries

Visited on 11/18/23. The menu lacked many gluten free item choices. Only saw 2 clearly marked items: the Steak Tips or Gluten Free Pizza. I asked the server about a gluten free menu she was either unaware, or said no such menu existed. Upon discussion with the hostess & server it was deemed, that the Chicken Parm could be done gluten free w/gluten free pasta. The chicken parm was tasty, but the gluten free ziti with it, was NOT. The ziti did not taste like it was cooked long enough. My dessert was the gf strawberry cake it was delicious. Husband's meal/dessert were fine, he is not on a gluten free diet. Other draw backs: the added 2% fee to the bill, for using a credit card. The lighting was poor had to use phone flashlight to read menu.

Never again will I go here!

Colombo’s surprised me with their variety of gluten free options. One server even gave me her marked menu with what is gluten free as is and what can be modified to be gluten free. I went for lunch one day and had an amazing arugula salad. Another night for dinner I was able to share multiple appetizers with my party and had clams and gf pasta!

Delicious food. The GF pasta itself was a small penne. I had the chicken Toscano which they modified GF. The waitress wasn’t to forthcoming on what could be made GF, so I had to have her check with kitchen. Only complaint there.

Stopped in for lunch over the weekend. I had the linguine burrata dish - they substituted the linguine for a gf penne pasta, but it was still delicious. The sauce was so good that I ate it all. Highly recommend. They cooked the pasta separately of the regular pasta.

We stopped in for salads for lunch, and they were good! They offered 2 gluten free desserts, although I didn’t try any.

Decided to stop by and see what they have for gluten free. Surprisingly, they have gluten free pizza and pasta for meals. Ended up getting the pizza and was very good. Waitress was very knowledgeable when it came to the food. They also have a couple of gluten free desserts as well (was too full to try it though). Highly recommend trying it if you are in the area! We will definitely be back!

Our waitress was very conciensous of my Celiac disease. She triple checked with the kitchen on items I was interested in. She said the pizza was made in an area with flour so she didn't recommend I get that. I ordered the steak tips. Very good service and food. Will be back

Extremely delicious indoor and outdoor restaurant/bar/café. All pasta is freshly made, including gluten free. Our daughter ordered the gf pasta but they were sold out, so she got pizza instead. It was really exceptionally delicious. She also got one of the gf cakes for dessert and ate it all up. We will be back to try the gf pasta. The regular pasta was delicious. The red sauce had a rich, unique flavor, yet also was familiar. We will define rly be back. There were lots of options that were kid friendly, as well as steak and seafood, salads.
