Biaggi's Ristorante Italiano

My daughter with celiac just ordered the “GF״ fettuccini with Alfredo sauce and GF bread. She was vomiting violently 20 minutes later! Total contamination. Awful experience!!!

Ordered from gluten free menu, talked to manager and waiter about precautions. Was assured of cross contamination protocols. My celiac child was sick within 30 mins of leaving the restaurant.

I went to Biaggi’s for the first time in August to celebrate my birthday. I was so happy to find out they offer a gluten free bread platter, so gone are the days of watching everyone else at the table enjoy bread and oil! The bread is essentially their GF pizza crust with seasonings, but it is very good. I’ve been 3 times since my birthday and each time I have gotten the chicken Parmesan because it is just so good. There is a separate gluten free menu, and they take allergy precautions. I have never had a reaction and I am extremely sensitive.

Ate here a week ago, love the gluten free bread and had scallop risotto with side salad, very good and did not get sick. Large gluten free menu.

NOT safe for celiac. After seeing good reviews I decided to give it a try. Staff brought out gluten free bread and assured me my meal was GF and they used a separate kitchen area & utensils. I was sick within an hour of getting home and am still suffering 4 days later, my worst glutening in many years.

They have an excellent gluten free menu with lots of choices. The staff was knowledgeable on my condition and very nice.

No issues post meal and I'm full celiac. 10/10 would eat here again.

Biaggi’s does have a gluten free menu, but that’s about it. I’ve eaten here several times over a few years (ordering exclusively from the gf menu) and been gluten sick every time. Not celiac safe in any way.

Celiac friendly?

No

Wow. Just what you hope for. Great big gf menu. Great appetizer. Pasta and pizza were both great. Chicken parmesan is an unusual surprise. They seem to care about a good experience for gf customers. Wonderful meal.

Good food and good atmosphere. Two Managers came out to talk to me about the procedure on gluten free and Celiac customers. Seemed to be safe

Celiac friendly?

Yes

After reading many positive reviews, I thought I would give this Biaggi’s location a try. My sister and I both have Celiac, and we both got very sick (most likely due to cross contamination) after ordering off the gluten free menu and notifying the waitstaff of our condition. While the waitstaff reassured us that there were separate cooking surfaces and tools used in the kitchen, they made no note of our condition while taking our orders and appeared defensive when we asked questions about the cooking surfaces and tools used.

Celiac friendly?

No

Absolutely LOVE this place!! I’ve had the gf Chicken Marsala and gf Parmesan Chicken! I love that they have their own gf menu, plus gf bread which is amazing!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They are generally celiac friendly and have an extensive GF menu. However we have gotten sick from cross-contamination more than once out of a couple dozen experiences there. My only general complaint is that it is often ridiculously loud in evenings at very hard to have a decent conversation. They cram too many big tables together and have almost no sound reduction surfaces.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friendly. I would recommend it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I love Biaggis! I have talked with numerous employees about their practices to prevent cross contamination and feel 100% safe eating there as a super sensitive Celiac. My favorite dish is the potato crusted tilapia.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Safe for Celiacs! Ask for a fresh dish of Parmesan...ones on the table are contaminated.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Since being diagnosed with celiac, biaggi's has been my go to place to eat with their two page menu of gluten free options. All of the servers I have had while dining in have been great and attentive to my needs.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

It was a shock to find that Biaggis has changed their service to those with celiac. They charge for their gluten free bread that used to automatically accompany the entrees. And some of the options have disappeared. It looks like they are withdrawing their support of those with gluten intolerance or allergy.

WARNING: just learned that Biaggi's is now going to be charging for their gluten free side bread. They also changed their gluten free menu and got rid of their tube noodles and a few dishes and now just have a really bland spinach noodles (that was undercooked for us and had to be returned) that now only comes with a seafood, marinara, or Alfredo sauce. Contact and email corporate to make sure these changes are temporary! Unfair they want to now charge extra for those with allergies that want to dine there. If they wanted to make changes it should be to expand and better their gluten free menu, not scale it down and condense it. Luckily they still have other entrees that remain unchanged.

While in Champaign for work at the last minute I learned there was a Biaggi's and was relieved. This location like the other one in Jackson, MS was wonderful. Knowledgeable and friendly staff that provided a quality and safe GF meal for someone with celiac away from home!!!

Such a big gluten free menu and they even have gluten free bread which is awesome! If you call ahead they will have gluten free bread waiting for you

The last time I was at Biaggi's the food was amazing. I was able to order off the Special's menu. I ordered a salmon fillet with a rosemary crust. It came with some buttered baby fingerling potatoes I think asparagus came with it too. It was amazing and gluten free!! We also had an appetizer of mussels in a champaign marinara. I love the gluten free bread too! I never feel like I have to compromise when I go there. There is always something I want and can have.

Food was cold and tasted like something I could have warmed up from lean cuisine. Overpriced food with no quality. Try a nice downtown champaign restaurant like Destihl if you are looking for someplace nice.

Best GF pizza I have ever tasted. I literally teared up I was so over joyed. They even have a gf bread they'll bake fresh and bring out to you!,

Hello! This is the second time we went to Biaggis within a year. Both times the food was excellent! I am not sure what I ordered last time but my son ordered the chicken/mushroom/balsamic entree (Chicken Pietro)both times. I ordered the Penne Cajun Alfredo pasta. Both dishes were delicious and I couldn’t actually believe the GF pasta was GF! It was so soft and held itself together unlike some of the other brands. I requested to add some chilli oil and it gave the pasta a good kick! They have a GF menu and there are enough good items in there to try! Will be trying their Gf pizza next time. We didn’t have any cross contamination issue. We both have celiac so not sure we tolerate minor contamination or there wasn’t any. I forgot to ask about dedicated cooking space. It is an Italian place after all so you can assume flour is in the air 😀 Highlight: I had crab cakes after so long! Most places have bread crumbs mixed in but this was awesome!

I’ve eaten here twice, first time had no issues but second time my sister and I (also celiac) both had a reaction. They seemed knowledgeable, so we aren’t sure what caused it. We both had some of the GF bread and the Chicken Marsala

We took a trip for a volleyball tournament to Davenport and wanted something very safe. This popped up as pretty safe. I asked all routine questions about their gf pasta. I had no reaction. Some of the best pasta I’ve ever eaten. And they have gf bread. There is a gluten free menu! Highly recommend
