We are a small 22 seat restaurant, that is very intimate. With a European feel, many of our guests proclaim that they have been whisked away to Italy or France. We love that!
Many accolades from the SF Chronicle, and the Mercury News as well as Eater SF hail Chef Yvonne and her team at Polenteria for being on the cutting edge of the Gluten Free Movement, and more importantly providing a safe space for those with Celiac to dine without hesitation.
We are a small restaurant and therefore we do have a strict no show- cancellation policy. we need 24 hours or more. Please be considerate of this.
We thank you and look forward to being of service.

Nestled in downtown Los Gatos, Polenteria serves up Italian cuisine, that is Celiac safe. We are a small 22 seat restaurant, that is very intimate. With a European feel, many of our guests proclaim that they have been whisked away to Italy or France. We love that!
Many accolades from the SF Chronicle, and the Mercury News as well as Eater SF hail Chef Yvonne and her team at Polenteria for being on the cutting edge of the Gluten Free Movement, and more importantly providing a safe space for those with Celiac to dine without hesitation.
We are a small restaurant and therefore we do have a strict no show- cancellation policy. we need 24 hours or more. Please be considerate of this.
We thank you and look forward to being of service.

What a gem if you are Gluten Free. The pasta, bread, beer, desert all GF and all to the standard of Italian Food. Only 11 tables in a tiny space but they make it work. If your going for a quiet night this works. It was all high quality and cannot wait to go back.

This restaurant is a hidden gem. The entryway is in a parking lot but once you find it, you won't be disappointed. Although it's a very small space with probably no more than about 10 tables, the food and service are excellent and it even has a full bar. You'll definitely need reservations.
