Montaluce Winery & Restaurant

Beautiful place. Excellent service. We had gluten free crackers, tasted really great. Most places offer gluten free, and it’s awful or stale. Super happy with my experience for my w birthday.

I have been to monteluce many times and have generally enjoyed it each time. This was my first strict gluten free visit and this time I had a different experience. First let me say the staff and service are always very good and as a solo diner they gave me an awesome table. With that said, the website and menu are not accurate when it comes to gluten free items. Several gf items on the menu are no longer available. They do not have a gluten free salad dressing however they offered to make me one. The salad came with croutons(gluten) and a salad dressing that was so vinegar heavy it was hard to eat. Had the filet bolognese for the 3rd time as it is my favorite. There was so much crushed red pepper I couldn’t eat it and was offered the check before I Could ask about dessert or coffee. I was told on another visit that they had a new chef who was not providing much for us gluten intolerant folks. I was very disappointed overall but will give them another try as I have had very good experiences in the past.

My husband and I spent last week in Dahlonega for our 15th wedding anniversary and we ate here the night of our anniversary. We loved it! The view from the balcony where we sat was gorgeous. The food was delicious. We got the deconstructed crab rangoon which was so good. We loved the dipping sauce that came with it! We both got pasta rustica (and they do have gluten free pasta upon request!). It was so good! I got a glass of Raspberry Demi Sec and my husband got a glass of 2019 Temperanillo. Both drinks were very good. The waiter, Gary B, was awesome! The manager who also came around was equally awesome. We can't remember his name but he was a very good manager. Both had great people skills and checked on you often but not too often where it was annoying. The menu is higher priced but we absolutely feel it was worth every penny. The only complaint we have is all the fruit flies! They did everything in their power to remedy the situation but those little things were everywhere.
