An absolute must visit if you have allergies! Especially gluten free.

Oliva popped into our google search while we were in Ft. Worth. When we saw it had gluten-free options, we decided to try it out. The restaurant was packed upon arrival, and we were told it was Graduation Weekend. We were seated within just a few minutes of our arrival. I asked for the gluten-free menu - a lot of options on it, including desserts. However, the menu item I ordered came out with spaghetti noodles instead of linguine, without warning. I chose not to say anything because pasta is pasta. I also ordered the minestrone and was surprised by the huge portion. It tasted good and was gluten-free - no pasta or beans in the minestrone, so basically vegetable soup. My husband ordered the tortellini with chicken, and while there was ample chicken, there were few vegetables on the dish. I found the same problem with my meal - a vegetarian option, with very few veggies and mostly pasta. The pasta was swimming in water, which might be traditional, but if you like your pasta 'drier,' you'll need to ask them to drain it before placing it into the dish. Plenty of leftovers to take home - had 2 more small meals from them. Oliva is well-lit when sitting in the front room or near the windows, but very dim near the back of it, toward the bathrooms and kitchen. The furniture is nothing special - the use of plastic placemats instead of tablecloths is not impressive. The service was good, and everyone appeared to be very busy, friendly, and willing. If you imbibe in Limoncello, you don't want to miss the housemade! It is served in a cordial glass, ice cold, and very refreshing. Overall, I feel this is a nice, casual, family eatery that has confidence in the service of their clientele. Oliva has plenty of options, and the food and service are good while not being overly pricey.

Loved that everything is gluten free. Only place that I have found that is.

I am not usually a cake fanatic but I can binge eat the blueberry-rosemary cupcakes like no tomorrow!! Delicious and moist with no artificial fruit flavor 🫶🏼. Excellent vegan and gluten free options as well!!! I want to cater my wedding cake from here (if that ever happens ha)! Pro tip - try the in house made sparkling tea on tap!! Refreshing and not too sweet!

All gluten free makes me happy! Loved eating their Cookie Dough Ice Cream in a waffle cone. Macarons are all so good too, my favorites are Passionfruit, and Lavender. Boyfriend had a Pina Colada Ice Cream sandwich that was surprisingly so good. Will be back anytime I’m in Clearfork.

Had a wonderful dinner at Piola's! They have gluten free options marked on the menu and all of the staff were kind. My food was amazing and our waitress was so helpful and charismatic! It was a bit of a shock at first that this restaurant is inside of a house, and parking was a bit confusing to find, but overall a great dinner experience.

Great gluten-free pizza and pizookie with ice cream. Even the wedge salad is GF.

Sue Clark

Great food! Not much to choose from, if like me, you have Celiac disease but everything I ate was delicious!

Hayley Childress

Giving all the stars because they are fine dining in north Texas with gluten free options! But They took off the watermelon salad and need to replace it with an equivalent soon because it is SO fresh and delicious always paired perfectly with the redfish! Please bring it back or replace with another delicious and unique flavored green salad!:)

Very slow on food 45 min. And just ok. Expensive for just ok. Cheesecake very good big plus for gluten fee. My opinion eat elsewhere then go for cheesecake

I have avoided Rise for YEARS because the location in Dallas said that they didn't cater to those that are gluten free. But when a friend really wanted to go there for lunch, I had just planned to grab a salad. But when speaking with the waiter he mentioned a whole gluten free menu!!! MOST of their souffles can be made gluten free now. And OMG they are scrumptious!!! I will most definitely be back. I have so much to choose from

Smooth Operator with Gluten Free Crust was Amazing! Chocolate lovers dream. Silky, smooth, dense, truffle-like texture. Melt in your mouth chocolatey goodness; the smooth operator should be called the Dark Chocolate Truffle Delight. So many more to try!

GLUTEN FREE/FRIENDLY!! Never stopped in here before but I decided to check it out after a class I had nearby they offer a “flourless” cookie the one I had was a peanut butter one and was super delicious.

Had lunch with an old friend who happened to be staying downtown. As always food was great! Grilled chicken sandwich for me and a wedge salad and filet for my "homeboy". He said it was the "bomb"! Araceli was a fabulous hostess and was patient with me and my friend when we called separately to discuss meal options since I have a gluten allergy. Would not hesitate to recommend for a quiet, comfortable lunch spot downtown. Keep up the good work!
