General Info
ZAGAT survey rated: food 23, décor 18, service 22, cost $46 An extensive selection of "excellent gluten-free" dishes is the hook at the new Yorkville Italian that also hopes to lure in locals with its "outstanding" pizza; brought to you by chef Giuseppe Lentini (ex Tini's, Lentini's), it's a "first class operation" if "not a magnum opus." Opus is an informal Italian trattoria with wide-ranging contemporary appeal, warmth and some distinctive traits. Serving both gluten-free and regular dishes, Opus has dual appeal. It has two rooms decorated in simple, soft tones and patrolled by a responsive service staff. Chef Giuseppe and host Enzo are leaders in providing gluten-free cuisine and have specialized for several years in cooking for sufferers of celiac disease and other allergic ailments. With mouth watering options such as gluten-free pasta and gluten-free brick oven pizza, Opus is the gluten-free restaurant of choice for those maintaining a gluten free diet. That does not preclude many homey, seafood-rich Pugliese-style dishes prepared with normal ingredients. Raw bar seafood items are a popular starter, followed by appetizers, soups and salads. Entrees include a variety of fish, veal chicken. Opus has an automated system to expedite orders for delivery or pickup and takeout.
