Used to eat here frequently but haven 't been in a while. Shouldn 't have bothered going back. Food was decent, except for overly salted vegetables. Service was awful. Waited half an hour for waitress to even come over to our table. Appetizer came right away, but then waited another 45 minutes for food to arrive. I had ordered cavatelli with sausage and broccoli rabe. When food was delivered, the runner said, We were out of cavatelli, so we gave you penne instead. I hope that 's OK. Well... I guess so. Not much I can do about it at this point. I 'm certainly not going to wait another hour for another meal to be prepared. Really should have complained at the time, but couldn 't imagine waiting around any more for our waitress to try to find a manager. Won 't be back.
I have Celiac and have enjoyed my gluten free dinner here a few times. This time I was glutened and spent the Celine Dion concert in the bathroom, sick as a dog. $170 for a ticket to the bathroom. I don't know if different owner or management but service was terrible and the other diners with me didn't enjoy their non GF dinner. I only ate half my veal marsala because it wasn't good. Thank God I only ate half or I would be in bed for a week instead of 3 days. We were the first group in to be safe from cross contamination but didn't help. Don't advertise separate kitchen areas if not safe for those like me with Celiac Disease. This is not a trend for me, it is my life.
we have been feeding in cafe formaggio for several years. the restaurant was recommended to us by friends when I mentioned that one of my grandchildren was gluten-free and we were hard looking for a suitable place to eat with her. my friends had a similar problem until they discovered this restaurant, one of the only ones I know of it, has a separate, extensive menu for gluten-free choices, including appetizers and desserts. Moreover, the regular menu offers are wonderful and all the decisions we have made were delicious and plentiful. the facility and the ambiente in restaurant are charming and the service excellent. we rate cafe formaggio 5 stars. a favorite of us.
