The service was lovely and as someone with coeliac disease, I felt very safe eating here (the server let me know that the original owner’s wife is celiac, and so that made me feel like they would have a good understanding of cross-contamination). The eggs and hashbrowns were just OK and the chicken sausage and the pancake that I had were pretty good.

I liked the food and the staff was very nice and friendly, they seemed like they did want to be there. The food was good, there were many gluten friendly options. I also liked the drink options and flavors. the mimosas say they’re puree but it seemed more like a puree syrup.

Very good, fresh seafood with a beautiful view of the Bay, and a short walk from the USS Midway. They can make several dishes and sides gluten-free. Be sure to communicate that with your server. Our server was well-trained on this food allergen. Recommended to make reservations, especially if you want a table outside or a table inside with the bay view.

I can’t say enough good things about this place! I have celiacs disease (gluten free) and they go above and beyond to ensure there is no cross contamination. The food is amazing and the service is awesome. We had Hailey as our server and she was kind, sweet, and attentive. We come from Phoenix a few times a year just to eat here. Love it!

TLDR: celiac friendly My celiac friend and I stopped by to try out their gluten free flatbread and she took half of hers to go which is highly uncommon. Most gf breads are like cardboard or rubbery but this flatbread tasted just like gluten bread! She didn't get sick so there was definitely no gluten in it but whatever it was, it was amazing! I ordered gluten full tortellini which looked and tasted like it was made in house and I was completely satisfied with my meal. We stopped by just as happy hour was ending and our waiter was quick to help us get some happy hour wine orders in before it was too late. The bathroom... it an experience. Like many cities, some locations work within their confines and RoVino got very clever. The restroom is a short walk outside the restaurant which at first seems so strange because they have someone walk you down to it. At the end of the block, tucked away you'll find a very clean little walk to a door with their logo. Type in the code and you enter a 1 stall restroom. It was so random but well done, I'll be talking about that little experience for a while.

We stopped by while in the area for lunch. It was a sunny day and we were thrilled we didn’t have to wait and got a table outside under cover for shade. I ordered a gluten free flatbread with prosciutto and arugula. It was a nice size, very tasty and fresh ingredients. Service was good even though it was a busy day.

Had a wonderful dinner here this evening. I am gluten free and ordered the gnocchi and my husband had the lamb tagliatelle pasta. Great portion sizes. We ordered a bottle of the Super Tuscan which is luscious! We took what was left with us. We shared the misto salad which they graciously split for us. Our service and food were wonderful. We have been to Italy and this is top notch. Folks Italy is Italy-it’s the terroir of there and cannot be matched but this came pretty darn close! Would defiantly eat here again.

Dietary restriction diners beware. I ordered a vegan entree and was served dairy butter along with it, which luckily I was smart enough to ask the waitress about before taking a bite. If a diner orders off the vegan menu, and the entree comes with butter, WHY would it be non-vegan butter? However, the server was kind, the food was tasty, and the restaurant was nice. I appreciated how well labelled the menu was for dietary restrictions (I am also gluten free) but would hesitate to return given the severity of that error.

So good! Incredibly delicious Thai food. Consistently good, and service is fast and friendly. Their panang curry is the absolute best one I’ve ever had. Their spice scale is legit too. If you want spicy, you can get spicy. Lots of gluten free and veggie options, too.

The food was wonderful. It's hard to find a restaurant that has good gluten free options that the kids and adults will all like. Our waiter wasn't the friendliest, but when there was an issue with some chicken that had been ordered, handled it quickly and notified the manager who was very quick to resolve this issue. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you so much! Just left our Triplet Birthday Breakfast and you folks did great. I am newly diagnosed with Celiac Disease and let our server know I needed my meal to be completely gluten-free. It was fantastic, and wasn't until the bill arrived that I learned how serious they take it. Kudos to Andre!

I’ve been here before but this was least favorite experience. It’s gone downhill each year I try it. The service was incredibly slow and we couldn’t even get the check to leave. Food was subpar and if you have a gluten or wheat allergy- the food is heavily cross contaminated. I would not eat here with allergies.
