Amazing gluten free menu and service. These folks know what they are doing! GF food served on different coloured plates. So many pasta choices, pizzas and desserts. GF calamari, bruschetta and so much more. So happy Atly helped me find it ❤️

We had a terrible experience at Del Piacete over the italian week weekend. Our waitress was unprofessional, yawning while taking our order and never checking on us. Despite arriving before other customers, we waited 50 minutes for our food while watching others get served first. Both of our pizzas had a couple mussels that smelled and tasted absolutely rotten. Beyond this serious food safety issue, my gluten-free pizza was also completely undercooked. When I complained, the waitress said reheating it might burn it so she gave me the option of either burned or undercooked. The chef explained they use new rice-based GF dough that “doesn’t cook well” - even after returning it to the oven, it remained inedible. To their credit, they removed the undercooked pizza from our bill when I asked not to pay for it. However, the restaurant feels dated with sticky tables, and the high prices don’t match the poor service and atmosphere. This was my second visit and will definitely be my last.

Back to this restaurant after a 15+ year gap (while we were living elsewhere) and everything is still great. Table wait staff were very well trained and the maitre d's were attentive, personable and were easy to converse with. Both dishes that we chose and the appetizer were large, generous portions that we took home. They have a whole page in the menu dedicated to gluten free options (not just footnotes).

We sat outside and it was not the most beautiful BUT there were actual linens on the table and that was very nice. The food was average I would say. The owner is a very good man and has been a restauranteur for decades in Ottawa. We enjoyed visiting with him and for his hospitality. The bruschetta has too many red onions in it, do not recommend. They do not bring bread unless you ask. The veal piccata was delicious, but the veggies and potatoes were not very hot or fresh. The pizza was good, but do not order gluten free pizza it is a terribly hard crust (which the owner deducted from our bill). The veal marsala was not particularly amazing. Overall if it weren't for the kindness of the owner I am not sure I would choose this again. There is a private room option for a group of maybe 20 people which is good to know.

What an amazing place to get takeout pizza from! They say a 1 m piece feeds four, I think it feeds six to eight! The hot honey is amazing, and the Cesar salad was the best I’ve had in Ottawa (they use anchovies in the sauce and there’s no bacon bits, and you can get gluten free, so it’s halal, pescatarian and can be gluten free, amazing!).

As a passionate foodie, I can confidently say that this establishment stands unparalleled in all of Ontario and Quebec for its exceptional accommodation and attention to detail. Being allergic to meat and gluten intolerant often makes dining out a daunting task, but the meticulous attention and care provided here transformed my experience into a delightful indulgence. Everything was delicious. From the appetizer to dessert. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable. The valet and doorman extended a warm and gracious welcome, setting the tone for the evening. The host greeted us with genuine hospitality, and our servers were not only courteous but also remarkably attentive to our needs. Their professionalism and dedication elevated our dining experience to one of sheer luxury. The ambiance exuded sophistication, and every detail was thoughtfully curated to ensure comfort and elegance. It’s rare to find a place where inclusivity meets opulence so seamlessly. I am eagerly anticipating my next visit, this time with my entire family, to share in this extraordinary culinary haven. Thank you very much!
