Vesuvio's Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria

What an absolute gem this place is. I’m in town for a few days and haven’t been thrilled with the food options around. I called in to order and was pleasantly surprised by how many gluten free options they offered. I picked up an order of Putanesca pasta and an order of bruschetta. Both were fantastic and I am thrilled that they also have a quality gluten free bread option. 5/5 stars all day and will most likely return for lunch tomorrow. If you have a gluten allergy and are searching for Italian cuisine, this is THE place. Thank you!

Food started out great—GF bread and tomato soup were amazing. I have celiac so I was excited about all of the gluten free options on the menu. The entrée was probably the worst Italian food I’ve ever had. I ordered the chicken piccata and it was essentially noodles in lemon soup and the chicken was halfway cooked. Our service was also not a pleasant experience. Our waitress was extremely slow, mixed up our drink orders (twice), didn’t know the menu or any of the daily specials and kept having to go back to the kitchen to ask. When we asked for the bill, she brought us the customer copy of the check (no merchant copy) with no pen. So we had to wait even longer for her to come back and bring us a pen. Overall, worst $60 ever spent.
