Review of Giorgio on Pine

when you go on their website, and you go to "Menus" you see "Dinner Menu" and "Gluten Free Menu" - how amazing is that! But then when you go the the restaurant in person there are actually so many more gluten free options! The items on the Gluten Free Menu are just the gluten free pasta dishes (they use Schar pasta) and pizzas. But when you look at the regular menu, EVERY SINGLE ENTREE and almost every appetizer is marked with a "gf." They even have GF dessert (chocolate cake.) ⠀ ⠀ They told me that there is no flour used in their kitchen. Yes they have regular (non gf) pasta, and yes they have regular bread. But they do not cook with any flour in their kitchen. Even the chicken parmesan is crusted with parmesan cheese instead of bread crumbs! ⠀ ⠀ My son got a pizza, and I got Veal with Lemon. They usually have GF bread from Taffets in South Philadelphia but they mentioned to me that they were out of it that evening.⠀ ⠀ A few things to note about the pizza which was delicious: 1) they use Still Riding Foods pizza crust which is one of our favorites (and you can order online) and 2) they only make GF pizza, no regular pizza, so you don't have to worry about cross contamination in the oven! Again, how amazing??!!⠀
