Review


My wife and I went for lunch here last week. As I am coeliac and vegetarian, I went for a GF veggie pizza which was amazing. My wife (who is not coeliac) chose a Pinsa, which is similar to a pizza but with a very light base. She was very impressed with the Pinsa particularly since we had never come across it before. The staff were excellent and very knowledgable on GF requirements. We bought some pastries (for my wife) and a piece of GF chocolate cake on the way out. The staff took time to cut my slice of cake from one that had not been cut previously. The staff were very aware of the risks of cross contamination. They cooked my pizza on oven paper and kept it well away from my wife's pinsa, which was in the oven at the same time. They did ask me if I would be ok with this and offered to put it in the oven on its own if I wanted them to. All in all a great experience and will definitely be back. PS. Check out the decor of the upstairs part of the restaurant at the back. Absolutely amazing.

Super delicious GF pizza and pasta available, the pizza honestly tasted so real it was one of those “is this really GF?” moments. Our server Justina was super nice and told us that normally they don’t cook the GF pizza any differently than the normal pizza - so make sure to stress that you’re celiac and ask them to cook it on a separate pan (it’ll still be in the same oven though). She said she would overall recommend the pasta over the pizza for celiac safety.

Italian restaurant that offers gf pizza and pasta. Pizza is separate to non gf pizza.

Menu states what options there are quite clearly.

Downside is its slightly pricy and quality of food wasn’t as good as other Italian places I’ve been to.
