Very few items marked GF on the menu. The staff seems knowledgeable about gluten and cross contamination, but at one point two waiters disagreed right in front of me about whether or not a side dish was GF. Also, they make substitutions without asking. For example, I ordered Tonno al Balsamico (tuna on a bed of Parmesan risotto) because the waiter assured me it was GF, but then he served me tuna on a bed of arugula because he decided that the parm risotto wasn’t GF. I wouldn’t have selected that dish had I known of that modification in advance. That said, they offer GF pizza, pasta, and focaccia, and they take care to prevent those items from being contaminated.

My safest dining experience was at Vecchio Forno so we went back a second time! The gf pasta was delicious and they even had a gf chocolate brownie for dessert. The main chef came over to assure me that the brownie was gf - I was skeptical because it looked too good. They have a gf focaccia and gf pizza but it’s noted that those may be cross contaminated so I stayed away from them (but certainly appreciate that they clarified!).

I have celiac and this is some of the best gluten free pizza I've ever had! It tasted amazing and was really filling without making me feel bloated. (My husband loved the pizza too, which is saying a lot because he can eat gluten.) Our waiter Eduardo was very friendly and accommodating to make sure the pizza was safe even though it was prepared in the same oven as the non gf pizza. Cute indoor and outdoor space. Recommend for all - those who love gluten and those who are allergic.

It’s ok but too salty for my taste, also it is not for strict celiacs, they indicate on the menu that the oven is the same for all pizzas, so cross contamination with gluten is possible

I had such a great experience here! The staff knew a lot about the gluten free options and were super friendly. My friend and I ended up getting two gluten free pizzas and they were both amazing. I have celiac and did not get sick at all. There was a gluten free brownie but I was too full by the end of dinner. Definitely recommend this place!

Excellent experience. Husband and I ate here twice during our visit. Staff is very helpful and knowledgeable about what is/isn’t gluten and recommends alterations to a meal to get you there.

GF food options included GF spaghetti, GF penne, GF pizza (thankfully NOT cauliflower) and GF focaccia bread (really delicious). Quality of food was very good, flavorful and fresh.

Suggest making a reservation, especially on the weekend. Easy to do using the OpenTable app.

They were quite knowledgeable, brought tasty gf flatbread for our burrata and although the gf pizzas are cooked in the same oven they said they’d clean it for me and I had no problems.

One of the few places in the area where they understand gluten allergies. I’m celiac and ate here twice without issue (had pizza once and salmon that they had to modify because the sauce contained flour) - both meals were great. They assured me they take precautions against cross contamination and I felt fine both times.

This place is amazing! The staff is very knowledgeable and assisted me in choosing food off the menu that was safe for me to eat. Their gluten free bread was delicious and I found myself wanting to finish the entire basket. The pizza I got was also scrumptious and the crust was perfect. Would definitely recommend to anyone, celiac or not!
