One of my favorite gf Italian spots in Chicago. The staff are so knowledgeable about celiac and cross contact! My favorite is the pesto with chicken.

Genuinely some of the best pasta I have ever had. Rivals the pasta I ate in Italy! The staff was so incredibly kind about making my meal gluten free and showed me all the options, he also made sure the entire staff knew what was and wasn’t GF! Not to mention that was the best gluten free pasta I’ve ever had. Worth going out of your way to go here!

The gluten free pasta was absolutely delicious - probably the best gf pasta I’ve had in the decade since I was diagnosed celiac!

This was absolutely the best Italian restaurant I went to in Chicago. My food came out tagged with a red sticker for gluten free. They don’t make their gf pasta in house but import it from Italy. The chef came out and spoke with me to check to see how our food was as well. Great experience

OMG this is hands down the best Italian place I’ve ever been to. The waiter asked if I was celiac and the chef came out personally himself to let me know how serious they take gluten free food and they tag everything with a sticker to ensure it doesn’t get cross contaminated. Besides being so thoughtful and intentional, the food is AMAZING

Favorite Italian restaurant in Chicago. Offers a variety of GF pasta shapes to go with their amazing sauces. They also have a great flourless chocolate cakes. Great drinks, vibes, service, and owner.
