We had two drinks (Limoncello spritz, Aperol spritz) and they were lovely. We shared a gluten-free pizza, which came out of the kitchen pretty much when we would have reasonably expected a pizza to be done. The pizza was terrific! We were very impressed by the gluten-free crust, which was the softest and closest to being an actual "normal" crust that we've ever had. The sauce, cheese, and toppings were excellent. (Their pepperoni cups and chars; if that's not your thing, be aware. I love it.)
The only hiccup was slow service on the end of the meal; we had to wait with clearly empty plates and empty glasses for a while before we finally requested our check. In the service team's defense, while the restaurant wasn't especially busy this night, it was hosting three different large parties that had frequent needs. Those servers were CONSTANTLY running back and forth to those tables. Our server was not rude at all, just ragged.
We love the decor of this place. It looks like what you would hope a pizza place would look like.
Recommended, though expect a leisurely time.
Amazing service! Super nice owners and waiters. Food tasted absolutely amazing. I have celiac they were able to accommodate my allergies so well with a whole dedicated gluten free menu and they were able to reassure me that they would be careful. I felt fine after eating my pasta. I had the Rigatoni Jambalaya which tasted great.
As someone who stops in at places that I take an interest in I definitely am glad I was finally able to, having driven through Campbelleville many times I could never find an opportunity to stop in at Risposta Bistro. Having had a celebratory 30th birthday dinner here, I can definitely tell you Risposta Bistro is 100% worth the stop especially if you have a love for an authentic Italian meal and quality atmosphere and service.
I was blown away by all of the food, what’s pictured here is what I ordered and would definitely order it again the “Gluten Free Gnocchi w/ Tomato Pomodoro” along with the “Spaghetti Bolognese” my cousin ordered.
The service was fantastic and very candle-lit, perfectly setting the mood for a quiet evening date or just personal time with family and friends. I will definitely bookmark the place to make frequent visits through the year.
P.S
Thank you again to our stellar waiter Alex for accommodating us that evening along with the complimentary birthday shot, Limoncello.
Places a big order for a team event. We ordered from Luigi's for YEARS but this was the first BIG order, and everything was perfect. The ownership and staff are always awesome here! If you're looking for something that's not a chain, you've GOT to try Luigi's!
Also side note -- best gluten free pizza in town, too!
Five Stars – A Perfect Birthday Dinner!
A couple of weeks ago, my family took me to LOCANDA to celebrate my birthday, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, cozy, and inviting—just what you’d want for a special night out.
We started with the bruschetta and a caprese salad and everything was fresh and full of flavour. For my main, I had a gluten-free gnocchi that was tossed in a Parmesan wheel—something I had never seen before. It was such a fun and memorable experience, and it tasted absolutely amazing!
Everyone at our table loved their meals, and the service truly made the evening even better. Huge thanks to our server, Caitlyn, who did a phenomenal job—friendly, attentive, and professional. Everyone at LOCANDA was incredibly welcoming.
To top it all off, I was brought a birthday shot that was literally on fire—and I mean really on fire. It burned for a solid ten minutes, probably a new record! My whole family had time to take individual photos of me with it, which made for a hilarious and unforgettable moment.
Definitely five stars—I'll be back for sure!
Gluten free crust is excellent! I am also dairy free and they had the vegan cheese! I have been eating cheese less pizza for so long. It was really nice to have the option. We really enjoyed it! Good service too. Really nice guy who took our order, thanks so much. Tuesday night, April 11.
We celebrated our Christmas and Retirement occasions for our organization in their large event room. The service was great, they even provided non-dairy, vegetarian and gluten-free options to a few of the members.
