What geraldstorey likes about La Dolce Vita:
Wow! Wow! Wow! We ate there 2 times on our vacation and it exceeded our expectations! Separate cooking area and gluten free menu. The owner came to our table to ask how the food was and told us his philosophy on cooking gluten free. He definitely knows what he is doing! I can’t wait to come back to Ottawa to eat here again! View all feedback. What Mose Gaylord doesn't like about La Dolce Vita:
Unfortunately, I was not able to taste any of the food. I tested both the appetizer and the main dish with Nima, and both tasted positive for gluten. The chef came to the table and was apologetic, but did not offer to re-make the food and to try to make it right. He kept talking about their "celiac safe" certification. Clearly, that certification doesn't mean much. Very disappointed. View all feedback.

read moreDiscovering a truly safe and delicious gluten-free restaurant can be a gem, and many reviewers had high hopes for this Italian spot in Ottawa. Unfortunately, some diners were left disappointed due to slow service, poor communication, rude treatment, or subpar food quality. On the other hand, those who had positive experiences raved about the dedicated gluten-free kitchen, knowledgeable staff, and delightful meals. From personalized service to a separate certified kitchen, this restaurant seems to offer a mixed bag of experiences for those seeking gluten-free options.
