I love Risotteria! It's one of my favorite spots in the city! It's crowded & small but the people are lovely & the risotto is excellent! Great wine & beer selections. Gluten-free options, if you need.
The Corcoran GroupAugust 19, 2013A must-visit restaurant for anyone with a gluten allergy. This spot takes their meal prep seriously, and clearly outlines everything on the menu that is gluten-free and/or vegetarian.
I always get their zucchini, feta cheese and chicken risotto and it has never failed me. Ever. It goes straight to your soul. It's just that good. And the service is always friendly and great.
Jo MiniOctober 14, 2013Very fun blend of flavors for their risotto. Service is stellar even when extremely busy. Pretty small place but totally worth the wait and it seems to be packed constantly. Be prepared to wait a bit.
Douglas EllimanAugust 5, 2014A charming Italian eatery in the West Village with incredibly delicious gourmet gluten-free options. We love their pesto and mozzarella risotto and gluten-free bread sticks.
Kevin O'NeillNovember 28, 2014If you have "those friends" who are off gluten this is the place to go. The breadsticks are delicious and you won't realize the risotto is missing that toxic wheat binding- As the most cautious & friendly dairy- & gluten-free restaurant in NYC, try the DF & GF chicken panini with olive purée. It's surprisingly filling!
Richard PorterAugust 29, 2014I'll get to the point - wide variety of gf items on the menu. Pizza delicious ( no after taste) . You may feel a bit cramped, but the food is well worth it.
Try the gluten free pizza- my favorite is the pesto, garlic shrimp, sun dried tomato and mozzarella! So delicious! Also the breadsticks are gluten free and to die for.
Matt FerrariSeptember 13, 2015Easily the best risotto dishes in Manhattan. Been going here for years when in town
New York HabitatNovember 29, 2011Don't underestimate the breadsticks here. Pair them with the risotto and you've got a great Italian meal. It's a small place but the price, atmosphere, and food can't be beat.
Namitta ShankarSeptember 29, 2012Absolutely delicious gluten free indulgence. Risottos were delicious while the wine pairings suggested were even better. Dessert was not too shabby as well. Pricey!$$$ (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more- Namitta ShankarSeptember 29, 2012Absolutely delicious gluten free indulgence.

Ken BotteJune 5, 2015Try their new location on the UWS, 78th & Amsterdam. Just as great. I like it better, but only because I'm 3 block away.
Tom M.March 21, 2015Pesto sauce, roasted shrimp, garlic, fontina, red onion-----done perfectly--- love this place!!
The staff is super nice. The GF menu is amazing!!! It's wonderful to have a place that my boyfriend and I can both enjoy. I can't wait to come back again and again.
Mary Elise ChavezFebruary 11, 2012An unbelievable selection of yum risotto, great wine and paninis. Nice option for weekend lunch, when most restaurants in the area are closed til dinner.
Jeremy ParrishJanuary 5, 2013Gluten free breadsticks that are actually still soft inside (amazing) and the meatballs are DELICIOUS!!!
Natasha MoriniMarch 19, 2015being called an risotteria you would think that it would be made to perfection. Both orders of risotto were watery and over cooked. I'm sticking to Risotteria Melotti on E 6th st for authentic risotto
Jason SpeenburghNovember 18, 2013Seats are tight, but the risotto is amazing. The upsell on the marinara sauce for the breadstick was sneaky. Over all good experience.
CharlotteAugust 18, 2013Gluten free risotto better then regular risotto in my opinion! Bread sticks are a big thing to them but I didn't enjoy them. All good though!
Kutlu KaratayMay 26, 2014If you want to eat gf pizza with gluten free beer you should come here. There are 13+ beers here :)
Andrea DucasAugust 31, 2013Despite being labeled vegetarian on their menu, none of the pizzas actually are. Nor are the breadsticks. They are made with animal gelatin. Not cool and false advertising! Delicious risotto, though.
Ami HsawakeirApril 12, 2013Their Wednesday special, prosciutto, arugula and truffle oil risotto is amazingly tasty!
Will WeaverMay 3, 2014The website claims 100% gluten-free but it really isn't. Still, the food is pretty good if pricey. Pizza is excellent and made with fresh mozzarella.
Hospitality85October 31, 2015Love the shrimp Dries tomato risotto! Wine is good and affordable too! Service could be more sincere but was fine..
Mindy LoverinDecember 5, 2013Awesome find for glutards and those who dine with them. The gluten-free desserts are even yummy.
JR -May 31, 2014Great risotto! Try the portobello mushroom risott with truffle oil if you like truffle oil.
Albert CovelliJanuary 10, 2016Both the lamb and chicken risotto, roasted beat and walnut salad, meatballs.
Anna LJanuary 18, 2014Great service. Gluten free plus they will change things up if dairy free too!!! :)
Tyler BrockMarch 12, 2015You can order the specials that have weekdays next to them any day of the week. Just ask.
Jacques ChiracOctober 13, 2015Their chocolate tiramisu is an insult. Its unbelievable their tres leches which is a hispanic specialty tastes better.
AndreaJune 24, 2011Almost all of their food can be prepared gluten free- including pizza an paninis! Also try the GF breadsticks and cookie. Amazing!!
Amelie BMarch 29, 2013Get the portobello mozza and truffle oil risotto. U won t regret it. U might even get it twice
- Alexandra AbleFebruary 26, 2011Great risotto but the only problem is it's cramped... Don't recommend for families more than 3... Also it's super busy on weekends plan to wait.. Other than that good risotto. Not the best but good.
- Rachel DixonFebruary 19, 2012Gluten free paradise. I've never had an adverse reaction here and the staff is supernice. Get any panini!
Cassandra CaswellJanuary 21, 2010If you need GF food, this is the place! Pizza, pasta, sandwiches, breadsticks, dessert - try the Chocolate Tiramisu - YUM, plus GF beer...the list goes on. LOVE this place.
Jessica NashMarch 22, 2014Food is always amazing! Come here pretty often, however was rushed out and they opened the door to the freezing cold temperatures to get us out. #rude #nothanks
Natty IceFebruary 14, 2011Gluten free heaven!!!! Love the mozzarella, portobello, truffle oil risotto! And amazing red velvet cupcakes!!!
Karl GrovesApril 19, 2011A-ma-zing meatballs. Everything we had was great, but the meatballs were the best I've ever had.
Erin SmithSeptember 3, 2011One of the best gluten-free menus in the city! The GF breadsticks are amazing.
