Risotteria Melotti NYC 8.4
East Village
Vibes: Comfort Food Classics Date Night Magic Hidden Gems Heaven Group Dining Gatherings
A certified 100% gluten-free Italian risotteria focused on Northern Italian rice traditions, operating in the East Village since 2013. The menu leans into creamy, well-seasoned risotti, rice-flour fritti, and comforting desserts that feel classic rather than compromised. It’s one of the most reliable celiac-safe full-service meals in the neighborhood.
Must-Try Dishes: Prosciutto-fig risotto (Al Cartoccio di Crudo), Cacio e pepe risotto, Arancini del giorno
