🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free pizzas on a gluten-free base (Romana and Classic recipes can be ordered GF).
  • Dough Balls (Dough Balls Al Forno and PizzaExpress Dough Balls) when served GF.
  • Gluten-free Pasta options (Bolognese, Creamy Pesto, Napoletana) when served with gluten-free Fusilli pasta.
  • Desserts and complementing GF options such as Chocolate Brownie and GF gelato varieties (Vanilla, Stracciatella, Salted Caramel).
  • Piccolo (kid) GF options, including Piccolo Dough Balls and GF salads.
  • Beverages flagged as GF, including gluten-free beer options (where offered by the menu).

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Not a dedicated gluten-free facility: cross-contamination risk cannot be completely ruled out in theory because equipment and ovens may be shared.
  • Official guidance highlights preventive measures: separate preparation spaces, dedicated utensils, and rice flour usage to reduce cross-contamination risk.
  • Some user accounts mention concerns about ovens being shared; others praise the explicit signaling (colored plates, purple cutters) and separate handling. When ordering GF, following the restaurant’s allergen information and asking staff to verify cross-contact steps remains prudent.
