La Riviera Trattoria

Do you worry about cross-contamination when searching for that perfect gluten-free meal? Well, search no more. Rev up those taste buds for a true epicurean delight. The offerings are plentiful and varied - whether you have a hankering for osso bucco, tender bronzino (or the catch-of-the-day), or some of the freshest homemade gluten-free pasta this side of Naples.
The service isn't good. It isn't great. It's impeccable. One word of caution: save room for dessert!

This is a great place to go for the gluten free community! I have been having such a hard time finding the perfect place, where I feel comfortable ordering food off the menu AND have option, and this place suited/exceeded my needs! Maria and Simon were awesome and so great to talk with during our dinner. Our dinner was delicious and we loved our experience. My boyfriend and I will definitely be back and will refer friends! At the top of my recommendation list :)

Absolutely phenomenal. Grew up in a traditional Italian family where food was everything. Been to Italian restaurants across the United States. This is one of the best. The fact it was gluten free on top made it incredibly special. I haven’t been able to enjoy food that reminded me of my family dinners until tonight. Amazing place. Amazing service. Amazing food. 5 stars is an understatement.

This restaurant was my first outdoor dining experience post pandemic isolation and I was not disappointed! The atmosphere was beautiful and the staff took wonderful care of us. Alyssa was a very attentive server and made us feel safe yet comfortable. She had extensive knowledge regarding gluten free options and worked with the kitchen to ease my Celiac concerns. Each course tasted excellent- classic, clean Italian food! I will definitely be making the journey back all the way from Brooklyn!

This is the best Italian restaurant in Clifton. The food was delicious and the service was spectacular. Love this place!!

Very good variety of dishes prepared beautifully. Every selection at our table was delicious, and there were 5 of us. One person in our group must eat gluten free and great care is taken to preparing those meals.

Their gluten free menu is amazing! chicken parmigiana was delicious and chocolate bomb cake with a cup of coffee was that cherry on top at the end! Service great, waiters are very attentive, restaurant is clean and neat. The owner is super nice, hope to meet his daughter Maria one day :) Highly recommend!

Amazing!!!! By far my most favorite gluten free food their chicken parm is to die for and they’re gluten free bread and dessert DELICIOUS 😍😍😍 I celebrated my birthday here, we arrived late and they still took care of us and provided us with great service! They close at 10 and we stood until 11 and still sung me happy birthday! I appreciated that so much! This will definitely become a place that I will religiously come too. My family loved it as well! So happy to have found such a great environment and great gluten free food!! Highly highly recommend!

My husband and I came all the way from Long Island to taste their food. It was a grand experience. Their food is delicious and the service was awesome. The owner was very welcoming, kind, and sweet. We highly recommend this place. You will NEVER regret it.

Great Italian Cuisine! Lots of menu choices served in an authentic & comfortable atmosphere. Owner / Chef Franco recommended the Pork Chop special & it was fantastic! Every meal we've had here has been delicious!

Outstanding place to eat, drink and have a real Italian meal.The prices are very affordable and large portions. A Gluten Free menu that has the largest selection of foods and desserts. The gluten free penne pasta with veal meatballs was to die for. 6 people with 2 bottles of wine and dessert was less than $300. Definitely going back and recommending it to others.

You get what you pay for. Its very nice. The wait staff is top notch. Authentic Italian food is great. The owners are involved in every step from being greeted to the cooking. They have a gluten free menu. I Highly recommend eating here. Word of advice.....Make reservations or you might be going to Applebys again!

Excellent food and service. Chef and Owner Franco is a marvelous chef and host. You will feel welcomed and part of his family. The seafood salad was delicious. Pasta dishes are home made. Our party of 6 had a great time. One of the best restaurants ever!

Great local spot. Until April 15, they will be doing a special, 4 dishes for $10 each. All of the dishes I ordered were great. The chicken parm was tender and not overly breaded. The eggplant parm had a good amount of cheese and the eggplant was cooked well. The pastas were cooked al dente and the sauces on the pasta were evenly portioned. Definitely going to order again for takeout. But I'm definitely willing to try dine-in someday soon.

The food was fantastic and exquisite, the atmosphere was very comfortable. The place was very clean.The gluten free menu was second to none.The owners Franco & his wife were very nice & friendly . The staff was attentive to all of our needs ! I would highly recommend this fabulous restaurant !!

One of my favorite GF places a Celiac can trust! Excellent food, excellent service.

Food is always delicious! Meat sauce is one of the best I ever had.... you have to try the pork chop karolina - never dry and brown sauce is mouth watering. Home made pasta and gluten free if you need!

Food, customer service and atmosphere are absolutely wonderful!! Great place to get Gluten Free items!! <3 Loved it! -And have recommended to other flight crews that come into town.

The food is incredible here. I have been there 3 times and the food is consistantly perfect. The service staff is very friendly. I have celiac disease and would highly recommend it for a gluten free meal, they even have a seperate area for gluten free to avoid cross contamination. Absolutely one of my favorite places.

Food was excellent. Also the service. They give you a plate of bruschetta, free! Also bread and butter. Calamari best I've ever had. Huge seafood salad with shrimp, squid clams...large portions. This is our favorite resturant in NJ.
