Soprana Rooftop Cucina

We had a lovely Sunday lunch enjoying the outstanding view. Service was attentive and food was delicious. We had the meatballs appetizer, a couple of salads and some pizzas. My daughter (who has Celiacs) loved her gluten-free pizza. A couple of notes: Google maps will direct you to loading dock on Carter St if use the restaurant's street address. Use "Embassy Suites" as your destination so you get directed to the correct location to drop your car at valet parking, which is the only option if parking at the hotel (it's free for restaurant patrons). The hotel turn-in is at the intersection of Montford & Haywood (with no signage). If you're exiting I-240 at Montford, go straight across Haywood at the traffic light. Also, and quite oddly, the menu does not indicate which items are gluten-free, and there is no separate gluten-free menu. You have to ask your server about any specific items you're interested in.

I must say this is by far the best gluten free dairy free pizza I’ve ever had anywhere. It is not easy to make a crusty glutenous saucy melty crispy luscious pizza that tastes like wheat… when there is in fact none!! This restaurant certainly does not use the word ‘cucina’ lightly. I’m already dreaming of my next visit. Oh did I mention the wings? Well that will just have to be a tale for another time ;)
