Review


We found this restaurant on the Find Me Gluten Free app and it was a very special experience. My wife is always very anxious about trying new restaurants as many of them may advertise Gluten Free items but they cross contaminate the food. Sibaritas put her at ease immediatelly!! First of all, this is a small family run business that has that old-world feel with a hint of fine dining. It is located in a converted 2 story home that is very comfortable and the aroma of the food being prepared is amazing!! As soon as we came in and chose the little table in the corner by the kitchen the waiter was pouring fresh chilled water from a classic style bottle and then left the remainder with us. The waitress (Gina) was right there to answer any initial questions. My wife had many and Gina was very knowledgeable and assured her that they are very careful with cross contamination. This establishment makes its own pasta and they have a separate set of "blades" and working parts for the machine that are used just for the gluten free pasta. They use a gluten free cauliflower flour and it is remarkable. We started with the "fried" calamari appetizer made with this flour and it was so good I would never know that it was gluten free. Gina showed my wife everything on the menu should could have and explained to her about the flour and pasta and that they will use separate gluten free dedicated pans to cook her meal. I could go on and on about the food and how delicious and satisfying everything about this place was, but you really have to experience it for yourself. I don't have any allergies, but appreciate the carefulness that the owner takes in ensuring those that do are well cared for and have a variety of options available. A final note: The food is presented in a very professional manner and I wish I wouldn't have been so hungry or I would have included pictures. If you go, please remember to take pictures of the food and post. It speaks for itself
