🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free pizzas using a gluten-free base (Romana and Classic recipes can be ordered on GF bases).
  • Gluten-free pasta dishes (most options, with certain exceptions) that can be prepared GF.
  • Gluten-free Dough Balls.
  • Piccolo (children’s menu) items that can be GF, including GF pizzas and GF pasta, plus GF Dough Balls.
  • Gluten-free desserts such as chocolate brownie, sorbet options, and select gelato varieties that are labeled as GF.
  • Note: Evidence consistently indicates that GF items are prepared with precautions and signaling, but the restaurant is not described as a dedicated GF facility.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The facility is not a dedicated gluten-free environment. That means there is an inherent cross-contamination risk whenever non-GF ingredients are prepared in the same general area.
  • However, there is strong, recurring indication of precautions in practice: color-coded serving (e.g., plates and sometimes cutters), explicit GF labeling on the menu, and staff who actively verify and communicate about gluten-free options.
  • Several diners report that staff are knowledgeable about gluten-free needs, ask about allergies, and provide allergen information or lists, which helps mitigate risk when dining with celiac disease.
  • A few reviews emphasize that signals of safety (such as separate prep steps or utensils) are present, while others remind diners to still verify current practices on arrival, since operational details can vary by location or time.
