We live in the neighborhood and went for Christmas eve dinner. We were sat promptly our server seemed new and a little green but super friendly and smiled the whole way through service.Our table was big and roomy and very comfortable. The atmosphere was really nice We shared some sort of crostini appetizer. not too memorable but not bad.the. Entrees took a while to come out, maybe 1/2 hour from the time we finished our apps. Not the end of the world and they were apologetic. My main complaint with the restaurant was the food. My mother in law ordered a mushroom pizza. it was basic and bland , my wife was gluten free and was told the bronzino was ok to order. it had a lemon caper sauce on the menu which was left off, It was really only 1/2 a bronzino and when i say it was dry and over cooked im being polite. the fish looked as though it was over cooked to start with but then sat on some holding area for 1/2 hour. really bad dish, the pastas read so good on menu but i’m pretty sure the pesto in mine was store bought. i seasoned and just not good. my son also had a pasta made with no love. no cheese was or fresh pepper offered. i guess i was just surprised that a chain that spend so much money on a beautiful restaurant with a Name of North Italia would have such mediocre to bad food. all and all i wanted to like it but food is lacking and when it comes down to it i would rather sit at a tiny table if the food is great

Gluten free and vegan options. Huge menu, plenty of options other than pizza like salads, sandwiches, wings, chicken tenders, pasta, desserts and more!

Our dinner party of four had an absolutely stellar experience. The atmosphere and food were top notch, but the standout feature was the service. Our waitress Aba presented the specials beautifully (she is Italian after all). She also accommodated my girlfriend’s gluten allergy with a rare level grace, expedience and insight. I highly recommend eating here, especially if served by Aba. She’s an expert in making each guest feel both special and at ease.

We Just returned from PR and enjoyed dinner at Cafe Vico. Good food and atmosphere, rest rooms are nicely decorated as well lol Chef Made special Meal for my Vegan and Gluten Free Niece and she enjoy it.

The Etna Rosso Ristorante is a gem of a Sicilian restaurant. The food is nicely prepared with excellent flavors. The overall atmosphere is nice and intimate as the space is not gigantic which means when full - that is most of the time - voices can be loud. They also offer some seating outside. The pasta selections are varied and even offer gluten free. The menu indicates which items will meet vegetarian or vegan diet needs. We have now been multiple times and the fine food is consistently good. Etna Rosso could become your favorite small Sicilian restorante. Quick update - We are continuing to enjoy our meals at Etna Rosso, AND sharing the experience with many friends. If you haven't added Etna Rosso to your list of favorites, you must give it a try.

We really enjoyed the place. The food was good. We really enjoyed the grilled calamari. The fresh pasta was tasty and the gluten free options worked well. The portions were decent, the atmospheric warm, with a nice mix of causal and good service. We would go there again in a heartbeat and will add it to our top food choices when in the area.

Tania was our server and was PHENOMENAL! She was very knowledgeable of the gluten free options and was incredibly friendly. Food was great! Service even better.

I wanted to give a shoutout to Matthew. After our server was a little dismissive about my sister’s severe gluten allergy (celiac), we flagged down a manager and Matthew came through for us! He talked to the kitchen, reminded our server, and brought her meal out separately. It made us very confident it wasn’t cross contaminated and I truly appreciate it as that can be hard to find at a table service restaurant. His going above and beyond will have us coming back the next time we are in town!

Loved everything about Anthony’s! Service was great, atmosphere is fun and eclectic, and the food was top notch. The gluten free pizza was amazing-best I’ve ever had! Regular pizza was also phenomenal. Would come back again and again if we were locals and would highly recommend if you’re looking for a good pizza joint.

Risa Khamsi

This is the best pizza I’ve ever had in my life!! I’m not exaggerating - the crust absorbs the flavor of the coal oven and it’s perfectly crunchy and flavorful every time! I get the gluten free crust and it’s phenomenal. The Caesar dressing is homemade and definitely a must try! It’s safe to say I’m a regular here!

Sal DiNicola

Great find. Really good food at reasonable price. Wife had gluten free pasta.

FIVE STAR EXPERIENCE!!! General manager Michele was amazing at creating a 40 guest brunch experience for us that was over the top. He created an incredibly creative brunch menu that included a number of wonderful items from which our guests chose. Food was absolutely delicious and plentiful. Michele even included several gluten free items. The fruit salads were beautifully done, served in carved watermelons and pineapples. Banana bread was served to start. Our servers, Tommy and Marcello, were outstanding, meeting all of our guests' needs with professionalism and personality that complemented our lively Sunday afternoon Valentine's Weekend event. It was a fantastic group dining experience, even exceeding our very favorable expectations based on meals we've had on many prior occasions at Angelo Elia. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Thank you Michele!

I ordered a pizza to go. I have a severe gluten allergy. I was so excited to eat this pizza. I was clear that I wanted a gluten free pizza. I was given water and next thing I know the pizza came out very fast. I get home and the pizza was absolutely not gluten free. Not one bit. This is extremely disappointing and unacceptable! I ate this pizza and was extremely sick and will be for days due to the lack of understanding and diligence this establishment showed. Do not eat here!

Susan Marinucci

This is a lovely restaurant with excellent, professional table service by Angie. Food was beautifully presented, tasty for the high prices. Seafood soup was generous and full of delicious lobster, octopus & shell fish & and gluten-free penne was appreciated. Eggplant parm was very good. Key lime pie was creamy, delicious crust but lacking in the lime.

Lauren

Only gluten free item on the menu is gnocchi, and it’s $25 and doesn’t come with anything… I added chicken and can’t believe I spent $40 for some plain gnocchi and grilled chicken that came separate. Really not sure how they can justify that. Gnocchi tasted terrible too. Very gummy.

J Rivera

The glutenfree pizza was great! The services was quick but she forgot our drinks never came back to get the wine order though we asked for a minute.

Madison Majka

Kristopher was AMAZING!!! The service, the atmosphere and the food was phenomenal! 10/10 recommend! Absolutely loved this place! I love that they even had gluten free options available for myself! Gluten free pizza and pasta was to die for!!

Jamie Forbes

We have eaten here several times. The staff and owner are amazing! He understands gluten free issues and ALWAYS offers up the best suggestions. His memory of our previous visits are amazing, we feel like family!! You will not be disappointed with every aspect of your experience!!

Peter MacDonald

Service was great. Mussels and calamari app was delicious. Asked about gluten free options and provided many choices. Snapper was delicious. My wife had swordfish but preferred my dish. Provided gluten free bread for starter dish. Will return.

We had just left a football game and we were craving good Italian food. This place delivered. I have gluten and dairy issues so Italian food can be a challenge. I had the chicken marsala with gluten free pasta... excellent. My fiance had the veal parmigiana; again, excellent. The best garlic knots.. fresh, chewy, garlicky and parmesan. I could smell the garlic and fresh cheese. We haven't had good italian in a while so this was a great. Connie was a sweetheart.

Sandy Baker

Great first experience! We did happy hour ~ such a deal. Meatballs are delicious, Cesar really good including anchovies, wings were juicy with a nice glaze plus the Vodka penne (gluten free) was A WINNER, especially when covered with fresh grated cheese. Our server, Ashley, was terrific. Highly recommend.

Mike Roddy

Spectacular food. Very attentive service. Homemade pasta. Gluten free pasta. Homemade sauce. Excellent

Daniel Goddard

Friendly staff and very delicious food all made in house . Gluten free and vegan options available.

Robster (Dukester)

Absolutely amazing. The parking is easy and the $5 valet is right at the door. Going early and having a drink at the bar is a must. The service was amazing, the food was to die for and the atmosphere is the best in town. Took my wife on a date night and we loved every second. They do have a limited gluten free menu but they modified my dish as needed. I would recommend bringing your own gf bread if you intend enjoying the antipasti. I'll be going back!

Amelia De Vita

There is absolutely nothing gluten free on this menu. Gluten free pasta options would really help. My friends love this place but I can’t eat here. Going hungry tonight.

Jennifer Zapata

Best customer service! Love the pizza esp the gluten free.

Solus Dextor

Great staff and great selections on their menu-- including gluten-free pizza!

Despite having reservations, our group of 9 still had a wait of almost 1 hour. No Gluten friendly menu and the poor waiter was not familiar with gluten-free options. Atmosphere is only at the bar otherwise subpar. The food was not worth the wait. Sometimes a name is just that a name.

Amazing Italian food, very authentic! They also have gluten free pasta that was delicious. Highly recommend. Service was great and very accommodating. We had Flavio (sp?) as a server and he was great.

* I’ve noticed the owner tends to respond rudely to feedback—now I’ve experienced it firsthand. I’m lowering my rating due to the lack of constructive responses. Focusing solely on the ‘water’ part of a review misses the bigger picture. What about addressing the issue of cold food or responding in a more professional, less defensive manner? Customer feedback should be an opportunity for growth, not an excuse for defensiveness. —————————— The place is very nice inside, and our server was excellent—attentive and friendly. I’d give him 5 stars for his service. However, I personally wasn’t too impressed with the overall experience, as the food was just okay for me. One thing I appreciated was how accommodating they were with allergies—they made sure to help me find something I could eat. What We Ordered: SWEET LONG PEPPER - $20 Stuffed with wagyu beef • This dish was very tasty and flavorful, but unfortunately, it was cold when it arrived, which made it less enjoyable. I didn’t mention it to the staff. Since I can’t have gluten, they made it without breadcrumbs, which I appreciated. THE BROOKLYN - $22 Traditional New York-style cheese pie with pepperoni • Honestly, it was nothing special. We had a larger group at our table, and others ordered different dishes. They seemed happy with their food, but I still felt like the experience was just okay overall. One thing to note: they charge $1 for tap water. While it’s not a huge amount, I don’t think customers should be charged for tap water. Yes, they serve it in a cute bottle, but plenty of restaurants do the same without charging extra. That said, I was impressed by how quickly they replaced our water—it was clear they were on top of service.
