DeNovellis Family Restaurant

I often go here and get gluten free pasta. I never get sick, it’s delicious, and service is amazing. I do wish the portion was bigger tho.

I just went for my birthday on 2/17, my son has Celiac Disease so it is hard to find good places...this restaurant did not disappoint.

The food was amazing and although they were packed & booked solid with reservations, the service or the flavor did not lack.

Although they do not have a gluten-free menu, the waiter was very knowledgeable and went over every dish that could be made gluten-free. They also had a different server bring his dish so it was not cross-contaminated by the other items we ordered. My son ordered a gluten-free pasta with grilled chicken and ate every bit of it, did not have a reaction or get sick...the food was delicious, the atmosphere was very welcoming, felt like dinner at Nonna's house, and the service was great...awesome place.

Many of the dishes can be made completely gluten free and the staff is very accommodating. We typically order takeout from here but we’ve also had parties catered by them too and always get compliments from our guests how amazing the food is from here and that it is gluten free! We especially love the chicken fortuna and chicken francais and pasta vodka sauce. So grateful to have Denovellis in Rocky Hill!!

The food is good, they can make most of the menu gluten free, and they are at least knowledgeable about CC. However, I recommend caution for celiacs. I noticed halfway through my salad that a non-GF dressing had gotten on some of it. I ended up sick after. If you are going to try here, make sure your server truly recognizes the severity of your sensitivity so they are more careful. I was in a large group though, so you may have more luck than I did.
