Amazing. Pasta, pizza, meatballs. Not too bad of an up charge either. I will be going back. And everyone is so nice the owner was at the bar with us.

We went here after a day of softball. Parking lot right beside the restaurant in downtown. The food was good with gf options. Our sever double checked things for us. The only downside was the portions were very small.

Absolutely wonderful!! Came here on a race trip, thanks to other reviews on the this app. Called ahead of time and they assured me they make the GF food in a separate area. Server was very kind and said she would tell the kitchen to take extra care with the order and went through the menu to tell me what they could make gluten free. I decided on the bolognese and my partner and I shared some gf meatballs as an appetizer. Everything was incredible!!! My partner got a steak but he couldn’t stop raving (and stealing) my pasta dish. He said it’s probably the best bolognese we’ve ever had and I’d have to agree. He had to help me finish it because there was so much! We did try out the gluten free chocolate lava cake though - delicious! So very happy with our experience and that we decided to try this place. Highly recommend!

The food here was really good but I got very sick after eating here. This despite having an in depth discussion with the waiter.

Amazing! When my server brought the bread and oil for everyone I asked for gluten free and she even brought my own oil so there would be no issues. It was a little pricey for gluten free but the service and feeling of safety is priceless. Would go back there again!

Took our picky GF daughter. The owner realized she wouldn't put the herbed butter on anything and brought out melted butter just for her! Food was delicious and service was great!

The best gluten free Italian in Buffalo. Egg noodles are delicious! Veg friendly. Drink menu and ambience is awesome as well.

GF friendly but not wallet friendly. Charged $3.25 to have a GF roll. No lunch prices available either, however, the food was delicious.

AWESOME! Staff were knowledgeable about which menu items I could have and were aware of need to change gloves to prevent cross contamination and other various things. The pizza was amazing, some of the best pizza I've ever had (and that includes gluten containing pizza!). I would highly recommend this place, especially the artichoke arugula pizza!
