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!

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
