Just because you have GF at the end of a menu item does not mean it is gluten free. I took my father here who has celiac disease because it was one of the few Italian restaurants in Louisville that advertises as gluten free but in fact there was nothing on the menu he could eat. Yes they have gluten free pasta but that is it. The gluten free calamari is cooked in the same fryer as everything else. My father ordered the "GF" marsala and he still ended up getting sick. I do not think they have any concept of what it means to actually be gluten free. I would not recommend to anyone with a gluten allergy. Do not be fooled by their website!

Started with their dinner salad with a house vinaigrette which was just amazing. My husband ordered Veal Parmesan and I Veal Piccata both were insanely delicious. The wait staff was just outstanding. My only personal preference issue, is I found the restaurant overly dark. I am usually on top of when I request a reservation to ask for a well lit table, so this is on me not to know but I would still not miss an opportunity to eat at diFabios again.

We’ll definitely be back! The calamari was probably the best I’ve had in Louisville, and my wife was a big fan of the Lemon Drop cocktail. I had Caprese with Shrimp and my wife had Chicken Piccata, both were very tasty! Great value for a meal including drinks an appetizer and take hole dessert.

The create your own pasta menu provides endless options. The tortellini is like a little flavor. I enjoyed the pink sauce and the creamy pesto. For dessert we ordered the tiramisu and flourless chocolate cake. Both for delicious. I’ll be back for sure.

Ordered drinks and she ordered a double vodka in sprite… waitress brought out two glasses one with vodka and other with sprite stating they didn’t have a tall glass clean…. Scratched my head on that one…. Starting going even further down hill after that…. Tried to locate a manger but only luck was a hostess that’s been there a few years… he finally came to the table and I explained the mess we were having….. his reply was “it’s Valentine’s Day and they are extremely busy…. Maybe next time don’t come on Valentine’s Day….. about 7 tables were empty and I noted to them…. His response was “COVID restrictions and we can’t seat people there, it sucks” at that point we got up and left, this guy was lying to our face…. I have been going to DiFabios for years, but never again…. Sad

I know our waiter was trying his best and stayed on top of our drinks. They may have been short staffed but wish that would have been explained to us. The food was okay but not worth the wait.
