Beautiful resturant. Extremely busy but still was seated promptly and had wonderful service. Loved having gluten free options! My husband's new favorite food so we will certainly be returning, hopefully on a less busy day! Fans outside would be a nice addition to the resturant during the summer months!
We were seated immediately upon arrival for our reservation, which was a great start. Our server—Christi, I believe—was absolutely outstanding: attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. The food came out quickly and was packed with flavor.
There are plenty of gluten-free options, which we really appreciated. My girlfriend said the pesto was the best she’s ever had, and she raved about the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo. The calamari came in a generous portion and was perfectly cooked.
To top it all off, we had a butterscotch crème brûlée that completely knocked it out of the park. An unforgettable meal from start to finish.
This was our first time here and we will definitely be back! The service and the food were phenomenal! The gluten free pizza is incredible (this coming from someone who is very critical of gluten free food). Even our little one, who is picky, devoured his! All of it was delicious!
If you are gluten free, this restaurant is amazing! We had the GF pizza and it was great and the GF pasta was still delicious with the bolognese sauce. Amazing meal! Great atmosphere, too.
Is this a joke? I paid $50 for this crap? What happened to the good gluten free Neapolitan pizza crust? I have been scammed, do yourself a favor and avoid this place. It’s gone downhill, the frozen gf pizzas from Costco are 10X better than this cardboard.
First of all, I will start out by saying the food was wonderful. I had no issue with the food. The price of the food, however, was borderline ridiculous. The "market value" pricing of many items on the menu ended up being a lot more than what it's really worth, and my friends and I were led to believe that salads came with the $20 entrees when in fact the salads were each around $8.50 extra, minimum. I was asked if I wanted chicken or shrimp on my gluten free carbonara, which at nearly $20 for a decent (but not large) amount of pasta, was already a lot to pay. Little did I know that 4 shrimp (just your average sized shrimp) was going to cost me an $11 extra and make my entree come out to $31. That's just the entree, not including the starter listed at "market value" which was an arrangement of salami, tomato and mozzarella that cost nearly half the price of the entree with the shrimp. While the cost was a surprise, the BIGGEST issue we had was the wait. With reservations made earlier in the day to be seated outside at 7:45 PM (since the inside was full), we were made to wait on the benches outside until 8:20 PM, a full 35 minutes later than our table was supposedly reserved for. While the food was great, the $144 (before tip) total for four people to each have a salad and a pasta entree was neither expected nor welcomed. Be very careful to inquire about pricing if you eat here, and be aware your reservations don't necessarily mean you get seated to eat within the first 35 minutes of being there.
Probably the most elevated food in downtown Alpharetta. We had the tuna crudo which was so complex and delicious with the fritti artichoke hearts paired with a yogurt sauce that were phenomenal. For our main dishes, they provided a gluten free cacio de Pepe that was delicate yet rich in flavor and my fiancé had their pasta with short rib and it didnt disappoint. The pasta was made in house and you could tell- it was amazing. For dessert we finished with a tiramisu like dish with a raspberry compote and fresh berries- SO GOOD! Service was incredible, owner and manger extremely friendly, and the chef is clearly very proud and knowledgeable of his craft. All in all an amazing experience and highly recommend for anyone visiting the downtown Alpharetta area. Thank you to our server Francisco- he did an excellent job and was so accommodating all evening!
We have eaten here before but this was the first time we catered and the food and service was excellent. We ordered pizza, eggplant parmigiana and baked ziti for a large party and Lisa and her team did an excellent job! They even had gluten free options and that made it easier for me to meet the dietary needs of all the guests. Thank you Mangia for making my event delicious!
