We went to Rocco‘s and had gluten-free pizza and cocktails. They were absolutely delicious and the vibe was stellar. also, the Greek salad was amazing.
You have to try this place! The atmosphere was intimate but energetic, and the staff was phenomenal. It was a little on the pricier side, but the gluten free pasta options were great and if you saved room for dessert, we HIGHLY recommend getting the affogato! Will be coming back.🙂
The gentleman Oscar yelled at us. He isn't funny. Good thing I'm funny enough for the both of us. Actually, he was great and an awesome advocate for his employer and other shops around. The food was freshly incredible and we will definitely go back. Gluten free crust for my lady was the best we have tasted thus far.
Omg. First time here and I can't wait to go back. I'm very picky about my Italian, and absolutely loved my food. I had the pesto pasta with shrimp, my girl had the gluten free linguine and drunken clams. Both were fantastic! Got dessert to go. My cheesecake with banana Graham cracker crust was delicious also.
Our family of 4 were thoroughly impressed with the quality of food at Romio’s Pizza & Pasta. My daughter and I shared the Romio’s Special with traditional crust. It was absolutely delicious! My wife ordered the gluten free crust with Canadian bacon and pineapple. It was one of the best GF crusts she ever had- very close in taste and texture to non-GF crust. My son (a picky eater) ordered the tortellini and ate until he was full. Great service and a comfortable atmosphere. When in Seattle looking for pizza again, we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!
Of all the places I ate on my 10 day vacation, this was, by far and wide, the best food and atmosphere experience. The server was very knowledgeable about allergies and made sure my Celiac self did not get glutened. I will gladly go back the next time I'm in Seattle.
I am not sure if they were overwhelmed, but they were not quick to provide service and I had to flag them down to ask to order, or for anything.
Gluten Free crust was fine, but seemed like the Udis version you can get from the grocery store. I love a good sauce, and this was just kind of bland to me.
Overall, a very “ok” experience, nothing bad, but I wouldn’t go back.
10/10 and one of my favorite spots in Seattle. I went while visiting friends 7 years ago and remember the ambiance being amazing.
Went last night for a goodbye dinner for a large group and the service and food were on point. I expected to be there for hours, but we had a set menu and the food came out quickly and was such a nice balance between salad, veggies, cheese, meat, bread and pasta. Everyone loved the lasagna.
I’m gluten free and had low expectations because GF pasta is not on the menu, but they unexpectedly brought me GF bread (fresh baked!!), pasta, and the flourless chocolate tart was naturally GF. I also ordered a GF non-alcoholic beer. I was in heaven. 🤣 Just wish I’d taken more pictures.
Can’t wait to come back with out of town guests!
My six year old daughter and I had a great experience! This restaurant is a must if you are gluten free. I had the gluten free gnocchi and gluten free tiramisu which were very tasty! They have great customer service which is a bonus. Thanks so much!
Been wanting to try this restaurant for a while and was a bit let down but not too much? I'd say it was average? Maybe we ate there on an off night?
Was pretty empty for 6pm on a Thursday, got seated right away. Though it was a gorgeous evening out they had all the blinds down and felt like no windows open except the front door so was a bit stuffy. I did really like the all wooden interior though. Got a booth and that's always welcome. Our server was really sweet as well. They even clarified when bringing our bill out that we didn't have to tip because it was already added - I always get nervous about that in places that include it already because I don't want to not tip by accident!
We got the carrots, the romaine salad, a cacio e pepe regular pie, and a margherita gluten free pie. Honestly, everything was kind of lacking in flavor. Carrots were under seasoned, ricotta underneath had no flavor. Salad was fine, nothing special, the lettuce was nice and crisp. My pizza was also fine, the dough didn't have too much flavor - felt like it could have used a couple more minutes in the oven. I really disliked the gf crust but my fiance (who's the gf one) enjoyed it. The red sauce was fine, also lacked seasoning we felt like - tasted just like canned tomatoes (which if you like that, cool?).
They also charged me $3 for fizzy water with lime lol.
Probably wouldn't go back just cause of all the other amazing food in Seattle but glad I gave them a try.
Wonderful Italian expletive, reminded me of being in Italy. The restaurant owner was very charismatic and helped us pick our dishes. They have a handmade gluten free pasta option, sort of like long bready gnocchi, or a teeny tiny moist breadstick.
The salads are hefty and fresh! I'm grateful they have a perfect gluten free crust for my sister as well. The food tastes it was homemade from an Italian Grandmother and love and experience has made it perfect. Compliments to the Chef's!
Don't get me started on the Calzone! By far the largest one I've seen!
Excellent food! Have ordered their pizza, meatballs, breadsticks, and now meatball subs (grinders), including some items from their gluten free menu.
Everything has been so perfect. It’s quality Italian food that’s even amazing the next day. We love the gluten free options and the fact that they have goat cheese! Their desserts are a must as well.
Delivery is fast & super reasonable.
They wrap everything with such care; we’re looking forward to trying everything on the menu.
The burrata salad is so yum! Must have that! The eggplant lasagna was flavorful and GF. The gluten free pasta is a bit strange texturally, but a great option. Love that they give you many choices to eat if you have dietary restrictions like I do!
Really great dining spot in Ballard. Everything was so delicious! We had the potato wedges, charred broccoli with an amazing tahini sauce, mussels, pasta, and steak. Although not explicitly stated on the menu, they have gluten free options/accommodations as well!
Parking was expectedly a bit tough in the area.
Great spot for an evening dinner. I tried the Muhammara and Hummus dips, both were spot-on with the warm pita bread. The server was attentive to gluten-free needs and offered cucumbers as a substitute. I had the Manti vegetarian dish with Turkish dumplings in a slightly sour tomato and olive oil sauce. While I wasn’t sure about the filling, the dish was unique and tasted good.
They have some of the best pizza around. The thin crust pizza has a light puffy crackery edge, which means being able to enjoy all the flavor of a delicious pizza without the heaviness (even standard "thin" and gluten-free pizzas are heavier). The service is always great and the staff are friendly. And don't forget to try the cocktails (my fave is the G&T with Monkey 27 and red peppercorn. The antipasto plate, the lasagna and the Caesar salad are delish. Come hungry and be prepared to take home yummy leftovers!

Great place for pasta, but we’ll be back for Brooke, we found her to be an amazing server with just the right amount of knowledge to personality ratio. Despite being gluten free there were still so many options on the menu clearly laid out for us so that was just a plus!
Food was super tasty but the portions were pretty tiny. $24ish for like..6 ravioli. Mind you they were good ravioli, but I dunno if they were worth $4 each...
Service was excellent and the food came out fast. A lot of respect for catering to a gluten free crowd as my girlfriend is allergic and they were very accommodating. They advertise they are NOT a gluten free kitchen so cross contamination might be possible if you're particularly sensitive, but we were just fine.
Would recommend!
"We had an amazing birthday dinner in The Cellar. Food was great and chefs provided perfect options for our gluten free guest. We had excellent service from Logan who not only managed all the food but also all corkage for our personal wine bottles. The space was very private and surprisingly spacious. Couldn’t have been a better night. Thank you."
Nice atmosphere and talented waiter. Food was disappointing. The Milanese was tough, the side dish of kale had an identity crisis not knowing if it was cooked or raw, the apples on the kale were very firm, again some uncertainty whether they were intended to be cooked or raw. The dish ate very dry. The orecchiette had a decent sauce but the pasta was overcooked. The arugula salad was a bag of greens with salad dressing. On the positive side, the salad was not overdressed and the dressing was distributed evenly over the salad. We did not get the soft egg offered with the salad, perhaps that would have improved it. The restaurant was crowded so seems popular with other diners. They offered gluten free options which was helpful to some in our party.
Amazing service, great coffee, and absolutely delicious cannolis. They have a gluten free cannoli shell available which is very good. Also, one of the only coffee shops in the area open til 11pm. Worth it!
I found my favorite pasta place! As someone who rarely visits Italian restaurants due to gluten intolerances, I took a chance with this place and do not regret one bit. The linguini nere Al Salmone might be the best pasta I’ve ever had, it had the perfect balance of creaminess but not too heavy, and the squid ink is barely detectable. The ravioli’s creamy sauce was delicious. The risotto was also good, a little too tomatoey but a solid 7.5/10. We also got the bruschetta and garlic bread which paired really nicely with the balsamic olive oil that they serve.
It’s very pricey, with tip it costed us $200 for 4 adults. It’s definitely a place to go to once in a while for an occasion. Ambience is romantic and also comforting. If you’re looking to go to celebrate a birthday or an anniversary, this place is it.
It sounds like you had a fantastic dining experience at this restaurant! Great pizza, delicious pasta, amazing fresh brewed tea, and excellent service—what more could you ask for? It's especially wonderful to hear that they were accommodating to your daughter's gluten-free diet and went out of their way to serve the kids. A thumbs up on food, drinks, and atmosphere truly makes for a memorable meal. Thanks for sharing your positive feedback!
Plenty of Gluten Free Options!
The Pizza's and Pastas here are the best iv ever hadm How did I not know about this place before?
I am yet to dine in, but when I got to pickup my order, the vanue is nice cozy and very large. Looking forward to trying that out and dining some time.
Highly recommend this place!
Solid Italian-American food. They have lots of options for vegetarians, vegans, and those who are gluten-free. It can get very busy at times, leading to slow service.
We came here on a Tuesday night and it had a line out the door. I think maybe because the hostess didn't know how to utilize other people to help her seat people. It's a nice place located on the lower lever of Pike Place Market. However, waiting outside for your table is quite interesting as the market staff or city workers (it wasn't clear which) washed down the steps and streets/flooring within the center with fire hoses to get rid of the urine. It's almost as bad at Bourbon Street in New Orleans.
They sat us and immediately took our drinks. Our group ended up drinking four bottles of wine. I had a Moscow mule and they made it exceptionally well.
We ordered a number of appetizers for the table:
Arancini - these were fabulous and large in size.
Focaccia - this came with a garlic oil, but was not over the top with garlic flavor. Truthfully, they shouldn't charge you for this and just bring it to your table. Charging $4 per order is silly.
Sauteed Calamari - my friends said this was pretty good, but I'm allergic, so I did not partake.
Next, we ordered our meals. It's a hard menu for those with some dietary restrictions. One member of our group needs gluten free options (there was only one pasta dis (though he could have had the gluten-free pasta with any pasta dish). He didn't want steak or chicken as you could get those anywhere.
I really like gnocchi, but it came with a heavy cream sauce. I could have asked for the bolognese, but its made with veal and lamb, neither which I'm a fan of. They had some more seafood dishes, again, I'm not a fish person (just basically eat shrimp). So I ordered the chicken parmigiana (I normally don't order a fried chicken breast that is smothered in marinara and covered in cheese and then baked, because there are generally better pasta options, but not here. It's very frou-frou.
The chicken parm was fantastic! It came with two chicken breasts and atop a heaping pile of small shell noodles covered in marinara and parmesan cheese. This is easily shared with two or three people. I would have brought it home had I lived there, but reheated in my hotel room the next day would have been gross. We were so stuffed that no one got dessert.
Don't misconstrue my 4 stars for a lacking review. The food, drinks, and service were phenomenal. However, my opinion is that the charging of bread for the table is kind of tacky and it's definitely more of a frou-frou Italian place. If you're looking for more staple Italian dinners, this is not your place. However, it is great for groups, and perfect for a nice dinner or date night.
Everything was wonderful. My daughter has a lot of allergies so it was nice to have gluten and dairy free choices. Service was wonderful. The happy hour options are nice to be able to sample the menu too.
Enjoyed a wonderful dinner here. The vibe is so cozy and warm, the staff too! I had the duck, which was fantastic. Really enjoyed my drinks as well. I'm gluten free and they had plenty of options and could make certain dishes gluten free as well. Their menu is small but mighty! Every item seemed delicious.
Stopped here for lunch, and it was delicious. Did the personal pizza and salad with a glass of house wine.
Service was quick. Gluten free personal was very good.
Had a great ladies night here! The ambiance was wonderful, and they were super on top of food restrictions - I was with someone with celiacs and the waiter was phenomenal at making sure they had safe dishes. The food also was very good - we had a wide range of dishes and were all super satisfied!
The place is full of lovely staff and you feel it the way they pour out their attention on you! Though the place was packed but still everyone’s presence was appreciated!
We ordered a big Veggie pizza, it was gluten free and had the thinnest crust and tasted yummm!
The ginger breadsticks are tasty too which I accompanied with my mocktail🙂
The best thing is if you sit in the patio you can have a glimpse of mountains, water and the soothing sunset 🕶️
Place is worth a visit!
This place is everything you dream of in a family owned Italian neighborhood restaurant - great ambiance, great food and great service that makes you feel like family. Not particularly gluten free friendly but there were plenty of delicious options that didn't involve pasta! Highly recommend!!!
I brought my boyfriend here for a pre-movie dinner and we both loved it! The beet salad was robust and flavourful, the artichokes were perfectly cooked and prepared, and the gluten free carbonara was simply DIVINE! Sam was our server and was fabulous, gave us good suggestions and knew how to work around my dietary restrictions.Ryan and his crew have such a good vibe, I love this place!!
The carbonara is so good I get it almost every time, and dream about it when I can’t have it.
Great gluten free pasta options, you really can’t even tell they are gluten free.
