We had a lovely outdoor lunch at the end of summer. I was pleasantly surprised by their gluten free pasta offerings. The calamari and spicy stuffed peppers were awesome. We will be back!

I came here for the first time last month and have been back two more times. I don't know why it took me so long to come try it (well maybe because parking in Little Italy leaves a lot to be desired).
All the food I've had here has been very good, especially the homemade pasta. The noodles were thick and delicious and the sauce had the perfect flavor. I've also had lasagna and the regular crust pizza which were also very good. The portions aren't crazy out of control.
I normally avoid gluten because it makes me blow up like a balloon and will only eat it if it's really worth it. Here, it is really worth it. I haven't tried the gluten free crust yet but plan to, I'm glad they have that option it makes me like them even better.
I need to eat dairy- and gluten-free, which can be challenging for an Italian restaurant, but the server was terrific, knew the menu we'll, and wasn't at all chased by the request. The manager and the owner both checked in with us and made us feel well-taken care of. Food, atmosphere and service were all excellent.
Scottie’s has been a family favorite for 50 years. Our parents went and now we are going! We love it because they have gluten free and vegetarian options! Way to go. They also have many tasty regular gluten- ful & meat options for folks to enjoy.
We love to support local family owned businesses!
The food was wonderful I have gluten and dairy problems and they made a wonderful dinner with gluten free penne, garlic lemon olive oil red pepper and chicken.It was amazing! So if you have gluten or dairy problems this is a go to restaurant
My boyfriend and I are visiting from upstate New York for the ACDC concert and we decided to stay in downtown Cleveland. We were looking for somewhere to eat in a safer location, and we stumbled upon La Dolce Vita when looking for places to eat with italian options without gluten. When we arrived we were promptly seated. We were then given pasta salad and bread immediately as we sat. I ordered the gnocchi and my boyfriend got gluten free pasta with pesto. Both were so amazing and served so quickly. Unexpectedly after our meal, our server gave us a plate of fruit with whipped ricotta. So delicious! Earlier in the day both of us were bummed with the location of where we were staying, and I can confidently say that the experience at La Dolce Vita and Little Italy was a high point for our trip. Thank you to the whole team here, everyone we encountered did a phenomenal job and we could not be more pleased with our dining experience.
