Our family of 5 went and had a great meal. We started with the lobster ravioli appetizer and really enjoyed that! Then we had the carbonara (one with gluten free gnocchi), clams linguine, chicken parm, and chicken Alfredo. They did a great job with the gluten free meal- absolutely would get again. I could have shared- as it was too much! Everyone loved their dishes. We would certainly come back. Favorite meal of our trip. Service was very good. Our server checked on us regularly and food was brought out steaming hot! The place is small and narrow, but quaint, like most in that section of town. We had a nice cozy seat across from the brick pizza oven.
Absolutely amazing!
The staff is thoroughly trained and managers bring allergies to the table. They even use a black napkin under allergy plates as a signal to all employees that the dish is an allergy. They use casarecce GF pasta - so they can know it’s GF just by looking at it. I felt incredibly safe eating here, and I got an almond flour cannoli!
Very loud and a tad over priced. Best gluten free pizza crust in the area. Most, if not all the dishes I sampled needed salt, but otherwise delicious and excellent ingredients.
Homemade GF pasta and mozzarella sticks!!! Yes please!! My sister and I both have celiac and our waiter put us at ease right away, letting us know that the gluten-free food was prepared in a separate area. I did have my 10 year old niece with me. She was not as appreciative of the menu. There were not many options for her as a child.
The flavors are generally pretty complimentary and I am appreciative of the high-quality gluten-free pasta with celiac-friendly preparation.
The atmosphere leaves something to be desired in two aspects:
1: the somewhat arrogant pricing
2: the customer conveyor-belt style service flow - they are trying to fit as many seatings as possible into each evening and do everything they possibly can to get people in & out in under an hour - seems a bit self-defeating when they are selling $65+ bottles of wine
Worth it if you go in expecting to order light, get one drink, and move on. Definitely find somewhere else if you'd like to enjoy multiple courses and make an evening of it though.
Really cool place, easy to do a takeout order. Lots of parking around. I had the Gluten free fish and chips with fries. Pretty good, but not excellent. I was glad to find gluten free, dairy free and soy free in Boston.
Our server Vivian was excellent - professional, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The food and wine were great too (as always). We really appreciate all of the gluten free options as well and the gluten free rolls are delicious.
I recently dined at Boston Ale House and had a fantastic experience. The food was delicious, offering a diverse range of options, including impressive gluten-free choices. The ambience was welcoming and enhanced the overall dining atmosphere. A special shoutout to our waitress, Juliana, whose exceptional service and attentiveness added to the enjoyment of our evening. Highly recommend this place for a satisfying dining experience.
My mom & I are traveling and stopped here to eat dinner. We spoke with Benson (Manager) who was very knowledgeable and caring to help my mother who has SEVERE celiac. We got seated and ordered. They gave my mom a gluten free menu and she ordered the pasta with chicken and sausage.
My mom loved it and was satisfied. Benson came back to check on us and we had such a lovely conversation with her. We will be coming back!
Thanks again, Benson!!
Cozy spot on Tremont. I got the gluten-free shrimp carbonara and the staff were very knowledgeable on the food safety process! My friend got the gnocchi cacio e pepe which was also very good. The food did take a long time to come out but understandable since it was very busy. They had a coat check as well which was a nice surprise and helpful to manage the space! Definitely recommend the arancini!
Very friendly staff, including a wonderful waitress that helped me make a custom gluten-free dish based on a photo a previous diner had posted. It was absolutely phenomenal. Gluten-free pasta, a (thin brothy) pesto sauce, Italian sausage, roasted red peppers, cheese, and grilled chicken. I was originally jealous of my family getting chicken. Parm, my dish was the star of the evening. As an aside, they will make gluten-free chicken Parm by not putting the chicken and serving with gluten-free noodles. Really great options if you have to go gluten-free. this is the first time in quite a while that I didn’t feel like I was missing out one bit. The other people at the table seemed to enjoy their tagliatelle, ravioli, and chicken Parm (good but maybe not write-home-about-it-good)
