Gluten free crepe. ! Delicious.

Dale Caines

Pasta lacked sauce. Gluten free pasta was very dry. Our waiter was awesome. Smaller portions.

Everything is made to order and customizable. I have celiac, so being able to order a custom dish is excellent

I always order their sandwiched on gluten free over skip. Nice, fresh ingredients and the italian sausage is so damn good. I recommend trying an italian sausage panini, red pepper, arugula and mayo. One of my favourites with the fries and soda. 10/10 for gluten free.

The food was amazing. 2 of us shared the family style 3 course meal and every piece was phenomenal. My partner got the salt cod and it was also amazing. They also accommodated my celiac amazingly and did it all gluten free. Service was notably good and the restaurant is so cute. Our server asked if we wanted refills when we had one sip left of our drink, was very friendly and professional. Also, first restaurant in my experience to read the OpenTable comments area, and asked about the holiday I noted and my celiac.

Ordered delivery through Uber. Gluten free (popular according to the restaurant), Margherita. The crust was soggy and a really strange consistency. Toppings slid off because of the weird plastic like crust. Cheese was also strange, like it was fake. To top it off, there was a hair baked into the crust. I get those things can happen but on top of the terrible, tasteless pizza it was pretty disappointing.

This place has such a great atmosphere inside and it feels really enjoyable to spend a night or some time during midday. Food is okay, we ordered two sets of pasta and it was great, also got chicken strips that were not worth buying in my opinion. From crucial benefits of this place I can refer separate gluten free menu that we got from waiter by our request. During busy hours place gets packed and you might need to wait for some time but I believe that it is worth it for sure.

It is a cute little spot more upscale than many other Italian restaurants in Edmonton, jeans and a nice shirt are perfect but dressing up wouldn't feel out of place. Service was terrific, friendly and attentive while not feeling faked. Food was quite good, rich in flavor and textures. Steak and mushroom risotto may have been a bit on the heavy side with nothing to offset it. Pescatore (gluten free) was very good, good balance of flavor with the citrus cream sauce and the penne was properly aldente. ☺️ We made a reservation in advance, requested a wheelchair table and identified I was celiac, the table was prepared with the restricted diet menu and open spot for my husband's chair. Some comments have whined about a lack of table cloths and the utensils being in paper napkins, personally I prefer that for the cleanliness it affords. No one is touching the utensils when setting the table, and no gross cloths with remnants of 🤢sloppy/sniveling past guests. When coming with a wheelchair, note that the door is not automatic and you'll need to navigate a smaller exterior landing at the entrance to get around the outswing of the double door. Inside is a well sized foyer with room to turn around as long as it's not stuffed with people. IFYKYK 😉. A bonus is that it is the main entrance, not a service door and accessible parking is right out front if a bit tight. If you need assistance with the doors, I'm certain the people there will be happy to help with a smile. A really wonderful caring vibe was felt when we were there. Solid experience and will definitely recommend and return!

Went there on a first date last year and again as we were both getting hangry. The difference in the 2 visits is I've become gluten sensitive so we weren't sure how or what I could eat. But all thr pizzas and Flatbread had a gf option which was great. We got the smoked Mozzarella wrapped and Prosciutto which was great! Then this spicy Italian sausage pizza on the gf crust and it was delicious. With limited places and choices I will be going back!

Nancy Burton

Went out with a group of friends and had a ball. The food was fantastic and the server was top notch. So delighted my gluten free friend could have a proper meal with dessert

I will give a big thumbs up to you guys. I ordered gluten free pizza. Dough was so soft normally gluten free crust is always chewy to eat. All the toppings were equally placed. I really enjoyed my pizza. Thank you for your service. 👍👍

Susan McWhinnie

Awesome job with the gluten free meals

Muhtasim Adib (Soupboi)

Easily the best Donair place in Edmonton for a quick bite. The owner alongside the rest of the staff is extremely kind. Their gluten free donair pizza is also some of the best gluten free pizza I've had

Preslea MacDonald

We have always enjoyed the food and service at the Sicilian! It can be very loud on weekends but that is to be expected and it was very warm in there. Other than that we always enjoy our dining experience there :) like that they have gluten free pastas too for individuals!

chavy dworkind

All pastas can be made gluten free. Portions are very large and tasty. Nice cozy atmosphere.

Simon Young

Phenomenal experience. The food was beyond fantastic, service was impeccable, the whole dinner was perfect. I'm celiac and the selection of gluten free options was excellent, I had the carbonara with gluten free pasta and it was incredible. Truly worth a visit.

Barbara Falk

Fantastic fresh pasta dishes with excellent personalized service. We were a party of eight, one of whom was gluten intolerant, and the service and food was superb. A small bright space with a lovely vibe.

Katherine Goertz Thompson

Great to be back after this Covid19 thing! Great food as always and I love the fact I can get gluten-free pasta! Also appreciate the carafes for coffee - second cup ready and hot 👍

Y Takasaki

Ordered some pasta for delivery and called in with a quick question about making my order gluten friendly, the staff were so lovely and accommodating!

Canuck _O

Really great. I am a reactive celiac. They made sure to take all precautions with my order. Excellent service and really great food.

Melanie Fyfe

Very attentive sweet service! Gluten free pizza cooked to perfection:) Spotless and welcoming atmosphere

Leemah Sana

Had dinner here to celebrate my belated birthday with a close friend, and everything (from the food to the service) was amazing. Our server (who I believe was also the manager or owner) greeted us warmly and took our order without rushing us. Throughout the meal, he checked in/walked by to make sure we had everything we needed and that we were enjoying our food, all without being intrusive or interrupting our conversation. They were quick with making and serving our food; my friend and I were both pleasantly surprised. The pizzas were delicious. I had the 4 Formaggi, which was the perfect balance of savoury and sweet. The gluten friendly crust was great.The staff helped celebrate both a grandfather’s birthday and mine with such genuine warmth- it felt very special and sincere. The server took my gluten intolerance into account for the birthday dessert as well which was sweet of him. Parking was easy to find, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. Overall, I’d highly recommend this spot for dinner, no matter what occasion you’re celebrating. It’s a great local Italian restaurant with great vibes.

My son and I both really enjoyed our meals. I got a gluten free pizza and the lady helping with ordering was quite considerate, providing many different options to accommodate my dietary needs.

Kriti Singh

Fantasia Catering absolutely knocked it out of the park for our work holiday lunch! The food was incredibly delicious, and every dish was a hit. Their customer service was top-notch – they were very responsive and accommodating to our needs, including dietary restrictions (vegetarian and gluten-free options were readily available). We were impressed with their affordability and flexibility. We received fantastic feedback from the entire office. 10/10, would definitely use Fantasia Catering again in the future!

Katelyn B

Great pizza! Also wonderful and accommodating service. The servers were very friendly and tentative. I had their 4 cheese pizza with truffle honey. Very delicious. I found their gluten free crust to be a bit tough to bite into but it honestly didn't really ruin it for me either because the flavors and cheesiness of the pizza was top notch.

Shawn Kirkpatrick

This was my first experience. While I really wanted to leave a 5 star review, a few things needed improvement. To start, I had an incredible Insalata Caprese. Featured photos. Easily the best I've had both in flavor and in presentation. Great work chef!! I am Celiac so I had the gluten free pasta in the seafood Alfredo sauce. I requested a notch more garlic. The dish came out and it was incredible. Absolutely I would order this again. The fallen star come to the dessert. Sadly the gelato portions are very small and very high priced. We ordered the taramisu. It was defrosted, with a soggy base dressed in whipped cream. It was not good. The plate remined full when it was taken away. The service was wonderful, the meal great, the desserts and selection were not good. I'll be back but suggest more dessert options.

Kendra S

Absolutely delicious! Accommodated a party of 12 with ease. They offer vegan and gluten free options. Pizza and wings were great - will definitely be back!

I've been here twice and ordered a gluten free pizza. Bar none the best gluten free pizza I have ever had in a restaurant. In my opinion, the crust tasted and had the same consistency/texture as regular pizza crust. The Amore la Carne pizza is awesome!

Jill Williams

My 9 year old daughter has celiac disease and a lot of worry about getting sick. the servers are always so kind. They make extra little efforts to reassure her that mean a whole lot to my daughter.(clean the table in front of her, reassure her the GF crust is actually what came out, and last night offered to have a kitchen staff member come and tell her how they made her pizza if she needed). She has never gotten sick at this restaurant but recently did at a different pizza place so it’s a big worry for her. It’s so nice as a busy mom to be able to go out for dinner somewhere she feels safe!!!! Great customer service.

Julie M.

This location makes the best tasting GLUTEN FREE pizza! I ordered the Greek pizza. It was heavenly!

Paige Carter

Aurelie was fantastic. Very knowledgeable about the menu, especially the gluten free options (which were amazing). She was very helpful, sociable, and funny. Amazing server would recommend her everytime!!

Georgio Thomson

I was here for dinner with my girlfriend. This place has a very dim light ambience with just one candle on the table. It was funny to see people around me using the phone flashlight to read the menu. There was literally one server seving 10 tables. Service was pretty slow. Like I saw our pastas ready since they have an open kitchen counter. The server picked it up and handed it to us after 10 minutes. They have a lot of gluten free options if you have an allergy. Food was average. Great portions though. We tried the Salsiccia for appetizer and Tagliatelle con pollo and the Rigatoni verdure. It tasted decent.

Tammy Rachynski

Excellent pizza, including gluten-free pizza!

I haven’t been to Ragazzi for well over a decade. I remembered it as a decent pizza restaurant. My daughter happens to live nearby so we went there. On a 1-10 rating, service was about 5. Not really bad but not good. We reserved a table for 6 and when we arrived we were sat near the kitchen and the front door where everybody stands when they come for pick up etc.. We were told there were no other options. We ordered a large salad which we were told could be shared by up to 4 people. They delivered a smaller salad, apologized, quickly threw in some more Iceberg lettuce and brought it back. Daughter requires gluten free options (Celiac) and they have them and I did not hear a complaint. Pizza toppings are fine and plenty of options. Maybe they had an “off night but the pizza crust was memorable for how ungood it was. Almost like a ready made crust. I theorized that because my daughter asked for gluten free pasta, they gave the rest of us gluten free crust? Don’t get me wrong, I ate plenty and enjoyed it. But I am not raving about the food, not over the top about the service so it’s sort of OK. the place has been around for more than 20 years and everybody has an off night.

I got married here!!!!! In 2003 (when I was 5 years old!), my family moved to Riverbend and we have celebrated many life milestones at Oliveto since. Naturally, when I was planning my intimate wedding ceremony, Oliveto was the first place that came to mind. We met with Romero and arranged to have our ceremony and lunch in the restaurant. On Saturday's, Oliveto is closed between lunch and dinner, so we were able to privately book the space from 1:00-4:00 pm practically free of charge. Day of, they arranged two long tables for our 20 guests. Together, we had come up with a family-style menu with a few salads, pastas, and wines, and for a small fee we brought our own wedding cake from an outside vendor. The also made a GF portion for a celiac guest. They had many servers on site and the day could not have run more smoothly. As always, the food was incredible. It was also remarkably reasonably priced. We love Oliveto! Huge thank you to everyone who helped make our day so special.

The chef that night was a fellow gluten allergy / celiac! I had muscles and the salmon entrée 😋 I want those muscles again.

La Jefa

Been coming to Tony's for almost a decade. The food is good, service is good, but the portions are a little small and the prices are high. They charged me $9.50 for this tiramisu 😭 (see pics). I don't do well with gluten so I can't visit all the time anyways but it's good to come here once in a while if you want to splurge.

Debra Boyda

Waitress had too many tables to care for, she worked very hard! Food was fantastic I had the steak sandwich because besides gluten-free pasta with plain tomato sauce and salads that's all a Celiac can order. I also asked for the toast to be on a side dish but it was on top of my vegetables so I had to take half my vegetables off and throw them away because they were contaminated with molecules of gluten. However the cocktails and food I was able to eat was the best I've had in a long time.

Amazing food and service! Have gluten free pasta and pizza available and seem very educated about cross contamination. Would highly recommend!

Nicole Scherger

Gluten free pizza is delicious. You know when someone puts love into your food, this is true for Canadian choice! Great cheese, sauce, toppings ratio. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a great gluten free pizza. 🍕

lance Taylor

Truly fantastic pizza! The sauce is fantastic and the gluten free crust is amazing! My whole family loves this place

I went in this morning to Panini's on 149 St and was greeted by such a hospitable, friendly, warm, and generous woman (Becky from Colombia). She is an amazing woman and made my visit to the restaurant totally worth it. You would do well to make a visit to this place just to meet Becky. You'll feel like you're at her house, she being hostess. She can get a little busy though. The restaurant has lots of light, lots of windows, air conditioned, clean, with outdoor seating. The male washroom was large enough, looked nice. If you get the Italian soda, get 3 or less pumps of syrup instead of the usual 6. The music wasn't very loud, which I liked, kind of elevator music, and I think possibly on CD because it ended and there was silence. I hope that the management will add the option of organic sesame rice crackers to go with the salad instead of gluten-free toast. I got some tea but didn't get a napkin with the cup and saucer and that napkin would have been helpful because I was looking for somewhere to put my tea bag since the saucer doesn't extend much further past the cup. I would love to come back here and bring others with me. Becky was the highlight. :) But I must say that I am thankful and grateful that Kadence came to my table sometimes too to look after me and that was very much needed

Best pasta I’ve had. Wife’s gluten free pasta was amazing also
