And above all, it was such nice service--a man and a woman who were so kind and made sure we got a great dinner. We are so glad we stayed!

Food is by weight but reheated, so it's not ultra fresh, but has about 1000 times more fiber than the average Italian meal.

Despite its Michelin star and vegetarian focus, both the food and service fell well below expectations. From the start, we felt pressured to purchase expensive wine before even settling in. The restaurant offers separate vegetarian and vegan tasting menus, but when I wanted vegetarian and my wife vegan, we were firmly told this wasn't allowed. A senior staff member even came over to explain--quite patronizingly--that we 'didn't know our food' and had to choose one menu for both of us. Most dishes were mediocre at best, making the Michelin recognition hard to understand. Even basic details like torn table napkins reflected a lack of care. Overall, this was not the special experience we hoped for, and I would not recommend Joia.

If you are senza gluten this is a great place to go. They have dedicated menus in both English and…read moreItalian, and also dedicated menu's that are Gluten Free and non-gluten free. Dairy and vegan dishes are listed as such as well. The atmosphere is very inviting. There is a main area in the front for parties and a more intimate area in the back for small groups or couples. We had the made in house pasta, one gluten free, one not. Having tried both it was virtually indistinguishable between the texture of the dishes (the gluten dish had a bit more al-dente to it, but not noticeably so.) Plan on getting 1+ plates if you're coming in with an appetite. While the portions are good, the savory nature of the dishes balances with a lightness that makes it OK to eat more. Beyond the pasta dishes we split a pizza, "4 seasons" gluten free, and they make the dough in-house as opposed to those pre-frozen dishes that are so common. We capped it off with a limonchello and will likely seek this out again should we ever venture back to Milan. Saluti!
