Antonio's Pizzeria and Italian Restaurant

Went there after asking several questions and seeing all the five star reviews on here. Both the pizza and pasta tested very positive for gluten with my Nima gluten tester. I’m not sure how other people on here haven’t gotten sick yet.

Great food and excellent service. We had gf pizza and a mozzarella appetizer. Delicious. Filling. Crispy crust that was tasty. Very attentive and answered my questions. Wish we lived closer.

I absolutely adore their pizza! It’s delicious, has family-owned vibes, and best of all I’ve never gotten sick! They have a separate area in which they safely make gf for an extra $5-$6 depending on pizza size, and it’s worth it!

They had a good variety of gluten-free options to choose from. We chose a large pepperoni and sausage pizza. It was delicious. The only downside was the $6 extra charge for gluten-free crust but the extra cost for gluten-free modifications isn't surprising just frustrating.

Loved everything about this place! Delicious, well educated on GF/DF allergies and cross contamination with many options for pasta, salad, pizza and even dessert! The GF pizza and my family’s non-GF food was great, but our favorite thing about this cute little place was how friendly the hostess/waitress was!

Very good food with an extensive amount of options. The gluten free menu does not have the pizzas but all of them can be altered with gluten free dough. The staff was extremely knowledgeable about cross contamination and stated that the gluten free dough is put on foil and all tools, water (for pasta), oils, etc. are separate from the gluten items. Very enjoyable and safe dining experience here!

Was looking for a restaurant last night and our hosts mentioned Italian as a favorite. Checked the FMGF app and was delighted to find this one! Two full pages of GF plus many of their regular ones have GF available. I had their house salad, GF garlic bread (fantastic) and GF rice pasta with clams. Servings are massive and everything was quite tasty.

My husband and i went here and while it was amazing to have gluten free Italian and be confident what i would be eating was safe it was just ok. I got the chicken parm and it was pretty bland but the chicken was cooked perfectly. My husband loved what he ordered( not gf) so we will be going back but ill definitely be trying something different.

We had an amazing meal. I had my first fried mozzarella sticks in forever—they use garbanzo flour. Every sauce is made fresh so they can customize it for your needs. Great guest service. They made sure I enjoyed everything and met all my dietary restrictions happily. (No sugar, no gluten and no soy). Such a charming place with sweet staff. Alfredo sauce tastes buttery and creamy. My family had so many options as well. You must try!!!

This place has the biggest most awesome GF menu I've ever seen at an Italian Restaurant. Not just one or two choices but literally two dozen different options. And since I must eat gluten free and I am always caution because it's not just the food but the preparation that is important. I'm giving Antonio's 5 stars across the board on all accounts. I got the GF Chicken Parmesan and it was so flavorful. The chicken was a nice thick piece; the GF breading was evident but not overpowering. But the sauce and cheese - delicious. Plus their house Italian dressing was really, really good. A mild taste, not the usual biting sharp taste some Italian dressings have. As for preparation, they know how to be careful so that my food doesn't come in contact with gluten containing food and even know about cooking pasta in a separate pot and clearly marked all of my food so no confusion. Those extra steps are so important and as a result, I was able to enjoy my dinner with no later consequences. We'll definitely be back!

Numerous GF options - close to two dozen. They know about preparation separate from other types of food and clearly marked my to-go package. Excellent.

The staff was so kind. Not only do they offer celiac friendly food - they care about the patrons and their well-being after they eat there. My daughter explained how having celiac disease affects her and the woman listened to her and made her feel confident about eating there. The pizza was amazing and my daughter felt great the next day! I wish we were locals because the food was amazing. Thank you!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Huge GF menu! Great service and amazing food! Had the risotto balls for starter and risotto with mushrooms and chicken and it was delicious. I'm a very sensitive celiac and I did not get sick. Also with 2 not gluten free people and they said their dinner was some of the best Italian they have ever had. Will be returning for sure!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff super nice but I ordered a GF pizza for my son and I tested it with my Nima sensor and gluten was found.

Celiac friendly?

No

Best gluten and dairy free pizza in LA. The staff is amazing and the food, incredible!

The chicken BBQ pizza is to die for!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Had the gf pizza and it was really fresh awesome toppings. Felt good afterward no reaction and they were very helpful and knowledgeable. They also have a gf menu with many options. I would give them more stars if I could.

Celiac friendly?

great food meatballs are NOT gf but with knowing four 3 years that I have had celiac disease this is one of my favorite gluten free pizza place hopefully will get a chance 2 come back

They went above and beyond to accommodate all of our allergies. Our whole family had delicious, multi-course meals without getting sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

So delicious! Recently just moved around the corner from this place and have been dying to try it. Ordered the fettuccini Alfredo with broccoli and ate the entire thing. As a person with celiac disease I always get nervous trying new places because of cross contamination, but I didn't get sick at all. Such a friendly staff and quaint restaurant. Definitely coming back.

Great GF menu , yummy pizza.

My mom and my aunt and I stopped her initially because we saw they had a large gluten free menu. You can pick any pizza to be gluten free as well as pasta. I ordered they Hawaiian pizza on the gf crust. Pizza was DElicious. I ended up only having half a slice left and I made sure to take that too. Would definitely recommend. Yum yum in my tum tum.

I follow Antonio's on Facebook and Instagram and love seeing their pictures of the delicious food that they serve. It's the one restaurant I can go where I know I can customize anything to fit my diet. They have the most AMAZING gluten free pizza and pasta I've ever tasted!! You must try it, they have been around since 1957 and you feel like a part of the family as soon as you walk through the door. Alex is so sweet and always greets you with a smile. The service it top notch and the food blows you away everytime. They even deliver AND cater! MUST try, even if you aren't on a gluten free diet!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love their GF pizza and had their Rice Pasta Rosa, it was to die for! I'll be back

I've been coming here for 20 years, long before I turned gluten free and their pizza is amazing. Their gluten free crust does not disappoint. It is the best gf crust I've ever had and they import it from Europe.

Their gf pizza was disappointing. The toppings were ok, but the crust tasted like frozen cardboard.
