Loved Bella Storia. Such a wonderful restaurant. They cater for coeliacs well and the gluten free pizza is exceptional. Fabulous Aperols. Great service. Thank you
The food was good and the service really nice. Good place for gluten-free food! Especially the caesar salad was really yummy. And the homemade ice tea was perfect, not too sweet.
We were disappointed by our last 2 dinners in this restaurant which we frequented quite a bit in 2023. The menu has changed profoundly, I wrote a few months ago that the restaurant offered a number of dishes adapted to the gluten-free diet, neither lactose, spring rolls and shrimp tempura made from rice...today this is no longer the case, and when we ask for dishes to be adapted to a gluten-free diet, we feel that we are "in the way", we must insist. The menu is very short, the portions have become lighter, for a normal appetite it is necessary to order a side dish which is offered at an additional cost! Too bad we really liked this place.
Really really delicious lunch. A high price, but with the view, the ambience and the beautiful food, it was a stunning combination. To begin with, the seating sofas were so comfortable and under the protection of a parasol in the sun, the temperature was warm but not too hot. The positioning of plants around the Riviera Restaurant was really nice.
In my opinion, the service was friendly, straightforward and professional. We were guided to our table and swiftly given menus to peruse. The menu for lunch contained a wide variety of vegetarian, meat and fish dishes from salads to burgers to steak to Carlton Club sandwiches and also tartes fines (small pizzas). In addition, there were gluten free options too. The avocado guacamole tart fine was delicious, with a rich and sweet flavour. The salad nicoise, burger and Carlton Club sandwiches also received rave reviews. As well, we were given a complementary basket of beautiful olive breads.
For dessert, the fruit platter was flavorful and pretty and the raspberries in particular were so ripe and sweet. Also, the drinks we ordered were very very good, and even the sparkling water tasted fantastic!
Overall, a stunning lunch experience, especially due to the location and splendour of the Carlton hotel. If a luxurious experience is what is wanted, this should fit the bill.
Excellent restaurant. Beautiful decoration, very friendly welcome, refined cuisine, well presented, with a very mastered degree of cooking. Don't miss the succulent foie gras escalopes with lentils and the fish with chorizo, perfectly cooked, which is quite rare. Special mention for the desserts, a festival of colors and flavors. Only small downside: it just lacks a gluten- and lactose-free dessert. It would be enough to put only dark chocolate in the chocolate fondue. Otherwise, for fans of anti-inflammatory diets, you will find what you are looking for.

Picked up the Pad Thai with chicken here. When I asked if it was gluten free, the friendly response was that almost all dishes can be made gluten free. In this case, the soy sauce has been replaced by a gluten-free variant. Good food and friendly service. Perfect!
