I got the pasta Samantha which is a tomato cream sauce with crab which was really yummy, pasta was probably just boxed penne though. They are able to make most things gluten free with a little change. We got the veal francese that is normally lightly floured but they covered it in egg so it only tasted like fried egg, had to send it back. Would go back for the pasta sauce though.

Delish! Our server took great care of us, but she did have to go to the kitchen to ask about several things.

Our waiter, Antonio, was very knowledgeable and promptly and apologetically corrected any issues, e.g. bread brought to table by other table staff. There is boxed GF pasta to have as the side for any entree and there is NOT homemade pasta that is GF. The menu does not list GF items, but the waiter was able to identify all GF items. We had green bean giardiniera, goat cheese stuffed fresh figs wrapped in bacon, caprese salad, table side filleted branzino, and “Saltimbocca alla Romana” (tender veal sauteed with mozzarella, prosciutto, fresh sage and cognac). I would have liked to see a GF dessert offering other than gelato. I did not get sick after the meal.

Went without a reservation on a Saturday night after finding the listing in this app and WOW! What a great place!

They make gluten free pasta in house daily, and can make anything else you ask for other than bread if you call ahead. The whole waitstaff confirmed knowledge of the allergy when delivering anything to the table, and the head chef himself checked on us five times, and shook our hands at the end of the evening to give his thanks for coming.

We split the seafood salad course, tried two different pastas, and ended with a lemon sorbet. Everything was delectable!

Between the atmosphere, the caring staff, the wine list, and the fantastic food, we will absolutely be back many times!

An absolute gem for a great gluten free meal. My daughter and I are both Celiacs and had unbelievable food with no reaction. They do homemade pastas that can’t be beat and the staff is completely knowledgeable. Great atmosphere and a place we can’t wait to visit again.

Bravisimo!! This place is amazing. GF pasta made in house by an amazing chef from Venice. We are highly sensitive and had no reaction . If that wasn't enough, it was delicious, the service was personal, and the ambiance took us back to the piazzas of Italy!! Don't wait....Enjoy a great meal here ASAP!

Awesome Pasta dishes. They were able to make small adjustments on a few things so they were GF. Just need GF bread for the olive oil.

Great gluten free penne with tomato, spinach and goat cheese sauce. Salad dressing was just like Great Grandma DeComo made. Guest also loved penne ragu (meat sauce).

Fantastic gluten free pasta. Shocked at what they could alter and maintain quality. No GF menu but waiter very helpful.

While there was not a GF menu, the waiter was very knowledgeable and helpful. I has the GF pasta with bologna is sauce. It was the best Italian dinner at a restaurant that I have had since being diagnosed.

While they don't have a GF menu, many of their dishes are inherently GF or can be slightly modified. They also have GF pasta. Everything we had was extremely flavorful.
