I was wondering if anybody has been to this pizzeria on 38 East 23rd Street

between Park & Madison. I am planning on going but I want to know if it's good.

I've heard it's very good.

I actually wanted to go there on Sunday, but unfortunately I got glutened at brunch so I never made it there. If you go let me know how it is.

Yea so today I went to Mozzarelli's for lunch. It was good, but I think the best part is that they sell it by the slice ( $3. 50, I think). There was no dessert, which was a bummer. I have to say Risottoria is better because there is more of a variety.

LOL!! I was at Risotteria for lunch today.

That is awesome that you can just get a slice, and not expensive either. I mean yeah more than a regular slice, but that certainly isn't bad. How does the pizza compare to Risotteria's?

The pizza is made in a brick oven which made it taste really good. So it was crunchy and chewy just like new york pizza should be. I personally think that Risotteria's pizza is better. Mozzarelli is good for those days when it's just you can you only want one slice.

I love Risotteria but have not been able to bring myself to go back there since they were temporarily shut down by the board of health.

I've went to Mozzarelli's once and found the pizza to be very good. The crust is more like a "normal" pizza than Risotteria's thin-crust, but Risotteria offers much more variety as here they just have the traditional tomato sauce, cheese pizza.

I called Mozzarelli's over the weekend to see if they had any gluten free pizza left and they told me that during the week they now sell a whole variety of gluten free desserts along with the pizza. So, I'll have to stop by and check it out and report back here.

wow - i hadn't heard about this place before. I've been going to risoterria every 2 weeks. i'd love to go more often, but it takes too long to get to and costs too much. this place sounds like it's better on both.

i'll have to check it out

thanks for the heads up!

I love Mozzarelli's. I make it a point to go at least once a week. I actually like the pizza better than the pizza at Rissoteria but I am a big fan of sicilian pizza so I like the thicker crust. I always go during the week. The last time I went they had gluten-free carrot cake (which in hindsight I should have gotten since I love carrot cake) I am probably going again tomorrow so maybe I will check out the desserts then.

Random Guy Apprentice

so i went there today

the crust was a little overdone

but if it wasn't overdone, i think i would be a fan

i'll try it again - maybe as soon as tomorrow

It's a good thing you didn't go on Sunday. Apparently they are open Mon-Fri. My husband & I took the bus down from the theater district on Saturday. I was totally psyched for ordering pizza by the slice and totally bummed out that they were CLOSED!. They are in the insurance district and many places don't bother opening on the weekends.

I went tonight for dinner (around 7ish). They didn't have any prepared, so I had to order 2 slices because that was the minimum they could do. But it was a short wait, and it was AWESOME!!! First pizza in 2 years, boo-yah! 2 slices and a drink for about $10. Especially in NYC, I call that reasonable! I told the manager (?) on the way out that the pizza made my day. My only disappointment? I don't get into the city often and I'm moving cross-country next week!

I finally got to Mozzarelli's! My husband and I took Wednesday off to go to the city for a show. After we got our tickets at TKTS we took the bus downtown so I could finally walk into a pizza place and order a slice! Well, I had 2 slices. First, a regular cheese slice, then a veggie slice. I was in gluten-free heaven! They also have a few gluten-free pasta dishes listed that they will make fresh. On the way out I bought some gluten-free biscotti that I noshed on while walking and still had some to take home.

Too bad they are only open Mon-Fri.

LOVE Mozzarelli's!!!!! I went for the 1st time a couple weeks ago, and went back again for lunch last Friday. I think I may make it my ritual Friday lunch.

The first time I had a spinach mushroom slice and a bruschetta slice. Both were wonderful, but the bruschetta slice.... OMG HEAVEN!!!!!! I wanted the same when I went last week, but they were out of the bruschetta :( so I got the spinach mushroom and a sausage slice.

They also have a chocolate cake which is incredible.

      Well I had a moment yesterday morning where I accidentally gave her gluten. She wanted what I was eating and I forgot and let her have a few bites of toast. It was a really bad night last night with her behavior. Will a few bites of bread influence their behavior that much or could it just be a coincidence?

      The first set of results show two positive results for celiac disease, so at the very least it looks like you could have it, or at the least NCGS.   Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Elevated tissue transglutaminase IgA (tTG-IgA) levels are highly specific for celiac disease, and they are a key biomarker used in its diagnosis. However, there are some rare instances where elevated tTG-IgA levels have been reported in conditions other than celiac disease. While these cases are not common, they have been documented in the literature. Below are some examples and references to studies or reviews that discuss these scenarios:  1. Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS)    - NCGS typically does not cause elevated tTG-IgA levels, as it is not an autoimmune condition. However, some individuals with NCGS may have mild elevations in tTG-IgA due to intestinal inflammation or other factors, though this is not well-documented in large studies.    - Reference: Catassi, C., et al. (2013). *Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity: The New Frontier of Gluten-Related Disorders*. Nutrients, 5(10), 3839–3853. [DOI:10.3390/nu5103839](https://doi.org/10.3390/nu5103839)  2. Autoimmune Diseases    - Elevated tTG-IgA levels have been reported in other autoimmune conditions, such as type 1 diabetes, autoimmune hepatitis, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This is thought to be due to cross-reactivity or polyautoimmunity.    - Reference: Sblattero, D., et al. (2000). *The Role of Anti-Tissue Transglutaminase in the Diagnosis and Management of Celiac Disease*. Autoimmunity Reviews, 1(3), 129–135. [DOI:10.1016/S1568-9972(01)00022-3](https://doi.org/10.1016/S1568-9972(01)00022-3)  3. Chronic Liver Disease    - Conditions like chronic hepatitis or cirrhosis can sometimes lead to elevated tTG-IgA levels, possibly due to increased intestinal permeability or immune dysregulation.    - Reference: Vecchi, M., et al. (2003). *High Prevalence of Celiac Disease in Patients with Chronic Liver Disease: A Role for Gluten-Free Diet?* Gastroenterology, 125(5), 1522–1523. [DOI:10.1016/j.gastro.2003.08.031](https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gastro.2003.08.031)  4. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)    - Some patients with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis may have elevated tTG-IgA levels due to intestinal inflammation and damage, though this is not common.    - Reference: Walker-Smith, J. A., et al. (1990). *Celiac Disease and Inflammatory Bowel Disease*. Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 10(3), 389–391. [DOI:10.1097/00005176-199004000-00020](https://doi.org/10.1097/00005176-199004000-00020)  5. Infections and Parasites    - While infections (e.g., giardiasis) are more commonly associated with false-positive tTG-IgA results, chronic infections or parasitic infestations can sometimes lead to elevated levels due to mucosal damage.    - Reference: Rostami, K., et al. (1999). *The Role of Infections in Celiac Disease*. European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 11(11), 1255–1258. [DOI:10.1097/00042737-199911000-00010](https://doi.org/10.1097/00042737-199911000-00010)  6. Cardiac Conditions    - Rarely, heart failure or severe cardiovascular disease has been associated with elevated tTG-IgA levels, possibly due to gut ischemia and increased intestinal permeability.    - Reference: Ludvigsson, J. F., et al. (2007). *Celiac Disease and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease: A Population-Based Cohort Study*. American Heart Journal, 153(6), 972–976. [DOI:10.1016/j.ahj.2007.03.019](https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ahj.2007.03.019)  Key Points: - Elevated tTG-IgA levels are highly specific for celiac disease, and in most cases, a positive result strongly suggests celiac disease. - Other conditions causing elevated tTG-IgA are rare and often accompanied by additional clinical findings. - If celiac disease is suspected, further testing (e.g., endoscopy with biopsy) is typically required for confirmation. If you’re looking for more specific studies, I recommend searching PubMed or other medical databases using terms like "elevated tTG-IgA non-celiac" or "tTG-IgA in non-celiac conditions." Let me know if you’d like help with that!

      I called zero water and they state their filters do not contain gluten or gluten containing ingredients. 
    • trents
      I agree. Doesn't look like you have celiac disease. Your elevated DGP-IGG must be due to something else. And it was within normal at that after your gluten challenge so it is erratic and doesn't seem to be tied to gluten consumption.
