Davio's Northern Italian Steakhouse

Went in the other night. Food is prepped in another area. Big GF menu. Manger brings it out. These guys get it. Plus the food is insanely good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Been to the Davio’s in Philadelphia several times and had great experiences so had to try their first West Coast location in Irvine.

Had a three course meal that was delicious! Server was so attentive, checked with chef to answer any questions he was unsure about. Brought me fresh baked GF bread (black napkin in bread basket indicating GF while other bread baskets have white napkins) as soon as I asked for the GF menu.

Had a mixed green salad, appetizer course of their hand-made GF potato gnocchi and shrimp for main.

Manager or chef brought our all my dishes always with a black napkin and verified without me asking that was my GF dish. Wonderful experience and felt great after!

My meal at this restaurant is probably one of the best meals I've eaten. The gluten-free menu is large.I had duck, tender, perfectly cooked, pink in the middle. The sauce on it is sweet but not overly, complimenting the delicious fowl. Served with polenta and root vegetables, a delight to the senses. The meal started with a tasty gluten free roll. I was too full for dessert but tasted my husband's crème brulée, very nice. The waiter, Daniel, is professional but not stuffy, very kind and conversational. It is expensive, but deserves another reservation.
