It was a disappointment because online it states they have gluten free pizza with designated ovens. Not only they did not have it the waitress told us it is not a gluten friendly restaurant and that there is flour flying all over the place. Being celiac I walked out. Not nice at all. Celiac friends go across the street to Acquolina. Great service, atmosphere and gluten free options.

A wonderful gem of a place in Little Italy. A family business, with the proprietors giving you a taste of real Italian humor should you give them an opening (try ordering a dry cappuccino, lol). It’s rather small and fills up fast, so plan for waiting if you’re heading there for dinner. Worth it, though. We had the Frutti de Mare Linguini (special), Lobster Ravioli and Funghi & Salsiccia pizza. They have gluten free options. Highly recommend!
This place was great, the staff were attentive and kind. I ordered Seafood Fettuccine and it was amazing. My boyfriend is gluten free and he was catered for too!
I had their 5-course tasting menu.
I shared my dietary restrictions and that I am vegetarian beforehand. And Sorrel did an excellent job at adding delicious and creative alternatives and came up with a vegetarian menu for me, keeping dietary restrictions in mind.
All the dishes were great but I particularly liked the one with root vegetables, risotto that was served with a bread with seeds/nuts since I cannot have gluten which I really enjoyed and the desert that I had very slowly because I did not want it get over :D
Sorrel also offers zero proof pairings(non-alcoholic) which I decided to go for and was the best decision for this course - this provided more variety like tea, soup and some really interesting drinks which matched so well with the food that was served. Highly recommend this.
I had a long day so I was very happy that I had dinner at Sorrel.
It did take a while for some dishes to be served, there is no waiting area and have to wait outside until they are ready, it was really difficult to get through on call with the restaurant.
Very delicious appetizers, food, and wine at F&W. I'm gluten free. They offer tasty ricotta with GF crackers and GF pasta for me. The staff is so nice and the atmosphere is amazing.
Staff was excellent! I told them I had celiac disease and they said they could get me almost anything on the menu. Got an Amy’s burger and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was!!
No pudimos encontrar mejor lugar para comer en el barrio italiano!! 😍😍
Nos sentamos en la terraza, que ya tenia bastante encanto. Al entrar me sorprendí por el tamaño pequeño del local y toda la decoración ambientada en Italia, donde no podían faltar estantes con comida de marcas italianas. Para mis sorpresa me encontré con una pasta SIN GLUTEN.
Nos dieron un servicio 10, la señora que me atendió me explico que podían hacerme pasta SIN GLUTEN, además de las salsas que podía elegir. Soy celiaca, por lo que pregunté por la contaminación cruzada y me indicó que lo tenían en cuenta. Pedí espaguetis con salsa de pesto (me costó unos 24$, algo caro pero estaba muy bueno). Increíble!! Mis amigos pidieron pastas con diferentes salsas, todas buenísimas!!
We couldn't find a better place to eat in the Italian neighborhood!! 😍😍
We sat on the terrace, which was already quite charming. Upon entering I was surprised by the small size of the place and all the decoration themed in Italy, where shelves with Italian brand food could not be missing. To my surprise I found a GLUTEN FREE pasta.
They gave us a 10 service, the lady who served me explained that they could make me GLUTEN-FREE pasta, in addition to the sauces I could choose. I have celiac disease, so I asked about cross contamination and they told me that they took it into account. I ordered spaghetti with pesto sauce (It cost me $24, it was expensive but it was very good). Incredible!! My friends ordered pasta with different sauces, all delicious

Had an amazing dinner at Caffé Sport. Our server was very friendly and assured us that the kitchen took gluten free order very seriously. That us separate water for gluten free pasta and clean the prep space for gluten free pizza. Really enjoyed our meal and would definitely recommend!
Merchant Roots is the best restaurant you’ve never heard of. We’ve been to two of their tasting menus (Color Theory, and The Great Trees) and both were incredible. The team puts an incredible amount of creativity into their entirely new menu every quarter, and weaving unique stories and themes in to each of the typically ~10 courses. Each dish is its own mini masterpiece. For example - with Color Theory, each dish centered around both the visual color but also the emotion the color evokes - for the yellow course, think a crispy yellow potato topping that feels and sounds like crackling Fall leaves.
The restaurant only has 2 seatings a night, and up to 8 people per seating. This also means you get to interact directly with Chef Ryan and the rest of the team while they take you throughout the story. The wine pairings were solid both times - since they’re a smaller restaurant, they can get wines from smaller producers who don’t produce enough to be able to service larger restaurants. They also have a beautiful full-wall piece of art from local artist Meghan Shimek and her wool roving.
We’ve been to many tasting menus, but this one is by far our favorite and the one we always recommend to others. And the price point is well below what you’d expect for the level of the experience. My only regret in writing this review is more people may discover it and it’ll make it harder to get a table for future menus!
Note - given how much work goes into each dish, they can't do substitutions unless they state it's possible, which varies by menu. For example, one of their menu themes was seafood focused, so they offered a pescatarian option. And their current The Great Trees and upcoming Vanity Fair menus are offering a few nights where they can do a gluten free or vegetarian option. Make sure you check their website and/or reservations page to see what options they're offering.
Good food and very good service. They had gluten-free options and were very nice about all my special requests.
My friends liked their Pulcinella Pizza. They replaced gluten-free pasta in the gnocchi dish for me and that was very nice. The best part was the cocktails.

We held a 30-person corporate reception and dinner at Zingari last week. Our guests have shared so much positive feedback on the setup, service and food - all fabulous. As the organizer, I was relieved to choose from so many vegan/gluten-free options on the menu. Thanks Neeraj to you and your team for treating our guests to a wonderful evening - we'll be by next time we're in San Francisco.
