“ Always a stop for GF cheesesteak and GF bakery treats when visiting family in North Philly area. If you or fam members have gluten intolerance, consider the Grotto as they do GF really well - AND offer the trad gluten-ful pizza and subs so the whole crew can get their Yums met here. ”
“ Fantastic find and the food was fabulous. A great place to stop and get a great meal. ”
“ They have really good gluten free dinners & desserts. I got the Fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp for dinner & cheese bread. Which I loved the Alfredo & it was 2 meals for me. They could have put more shrimp in it being the dish was $29.0the bread bags were only $2.50 & wanted to see how it tasted in hopes it could replace my $7.99 g/f sandwich rolls but it was very dense, dry & hard to swallow so I wasn't impressed with the bread. I love their desserts & it was my birthday so I got a g/f chocolate chip cannoli; very expensive. They don't have a very big dining section; it's only a few tables & when my friend & I had 1st gone the owner & cook were the only two people their & he was extremely rude to the point we left & went to Carrabba's instead. I wanted to still try their food so I decided to do take instead. I like they have a drive thru but when I went to pickup nobody acknowledged I was waiting there; so I parked & went inside. ”
“ We have enjoyed much of the gluten free dishes we have tried! Also none have made me sick! Which is impressive considering a lot of restaurants claim to have gluten free items only for me to be sick for hours-days-even weeks after eating. ”
“ Stopped by for lunch. I had read reviews about this place about gluten free items. I have Celiac Disease. I ordered a hoagie, which was delicious. The owner told me he has a separate area in which he prepares the food. I also purchased an apple loaf cake. Yum! I bought 6 rolls that were frozen to use later on. Will definitely be stopping back! ”
“ This is a cool little back shop that also sells pizza, strange I know, but let me tell you about it. I haven't had any of their pastries or anything other then their pizza, so I will only speak to their pizza. If you are in this area or even if you have to travel you have to get the Rosa sauce pizza. It is by far one of the best vodka sauces I have ever had on a pizza. And one of the best pizzas I can say I have had hands down (and trust me I eat a lot of flippin pizza). Price is honestly not bad if you are one person a family might get costly but a small pizza is good enough for even a pretty decent appetite. Service is friendly and quick and the ambiance is a cute little bakery with a few seats for eat it. Check em out if you can I really hope you'll like it like I did. ”
“ We were flying through from Newark Airport to Philly and hungry. Randomly choose exit #343 off the Turnpike and randomly picked this place. JOY! We shared a Vodke Pizza with mushrooms (a delightful first!) and a side of sauteed spinach (perfectly prepared.) John is a very sweet man and we bought some Italian cookies to bring home to my parents. Try the walnut cookies! Crumbly, gently sweet, melt in your mouth. Threw down a heart on Google Maps and will try to find excuses to stop back here. Little gem! ”
