I know that there have been quite a few posts about this place already, but I have to jump on the band wagon. I finally, finally went there yesterday. (saturday) I was in heaven. Those breadsticks.. I wanted to steal them out of the restaurant to take them home. And the pizza, was just fantastic. I was in the city with some friends so I didnt get to try any beer. Maybe next time.. but I along with everyone else, highly recommend this place to everyone!! :)

anyone eaten at the risotteria who is avoiding a couple foods besides gluten? I saw on their website they mentioned dairy free choices as well as gluten free (and sugar free and vegetarian dishes) so I'm assuming it can't be that hard to get soy-free and egg-free meals as well...

i have GOT to try this place

no doubt it's better than my standard lunch of a packet of tuna and an apple :o

if i order a pizza, can i take what i don't finish to go?

thanks

Yes you sure can Random. They put whatever you dont finish and want to take with you in a styrofoam carrier and into a bag. I hope you get there soon! You will love it

im not sure about that-- i have never tried but i dont know if they have the ingredients to make soy-free or egg-free food. You may want to give them a call or you can email from their website...definitely worth a shot!!

I went there this weekend and I just wanted to report two things.

Those amazing meatballs that come with the spaghetti on Tuesdays-only are now an everyday appetizer. They are not served with pasta but by themselves with marinara sauce. I ordered them and dunked the breadsticks in the sauce. Pretty amazing.

Remember a few months ago that someone of us were complaining (but not that hard!) that there was no salt in the food? Well now the pendulum has swung the other way and everything is super salty. Did one of us say something? If so, who did we talk to? We need to tell him/her to take it down a notch. I said something diplomatic to the waitress but I'm not sure it did anything.

Otherwise, well, my meal was a brilliant experience. Risotteria is Risotteria is Risotteria and I'll continue going even if I have to drink a gallon or two of water and take blood pressure medication!

      @rjane, yes, it often feels overwhelming in the beginning. But let me encourage you by saying that it will get easier. You and your husband will develop, over time, a sixth sense of how gluten is typically hidden in the food supply and where it is found and you will develop an inventory of foods that you can trust and to stock your pantry with. The largest risk involves eating out at restaurants. Even if you order things that are naturally gluten free, you have no control over cross contamination happening back in the kitchen in how things are prepared and handled. Another trap is eating at other people's homes who are trying to accommodate your husband's need to eat gluten free but who lack knowledge about how gluten may be hidden in the food supply. I mean, who would expect to find wheat in soy sauce or Campbell's tomato soup? I know you aren't going to want to hear this, but you may want to consider making your kitchen entirely gluten free to eliminate the possibility of accidents and cross contamination. It would also simplify your meal preparation. Yes, I'm talking about both of you eating gluten free in the home. Many couples find this is the easiest and most practical approach to being consistent and keeping their celiac loved one safe. You might find this helpful:

      I am not sure if they have tested him for SIBO  should I ask the hospital if they have tested him for that, there is so much to learn in the beginning I am not sure what or who to ask I am thinking the good folks on this site will help me, thanking you for your help

      Has your hubbie been checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth)? This is not uncommon in the celiac population. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/21820-small-intestinal-bacterial-overgrowth-sibo

      Update: I got a call on Monday from the GI doctor's office, they had a cancellation and an appointment opened up for Tuesday. Not much time to prepare, but I went ahead and did it anyway. I haven't been gluten free at any point, but I haven't really loaded up as much as was recommended, either. It takes another 6-8 weeks to get the results, so I'd rather get it done now. I just hope it will be enough and I won't have to try again and delay it even longer. Thanks for the recommendations and thoughtful responses, much appreciated. I will be following up with my GP soon to check for nutritional deficiencies while I'm waiting on the test results.
