Great food, attentive and friendly service. Many tables around me were eating GF pizza but I had a pasta dish. They were great with my 10 year old as well. No wait at 5:30pm on a weekday.

Didn’t get poisoned!! Food was plentiful and delicious. Soooo good my North end favorite!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have never had gnocchi before last night but after all of the reviews I had to try them, they were amazing! I had a 5 of my non gluten free family and they also loved the food. Will definitely come back next time I’m in Boston. FYI, make a reservation, it’s a small place and they are busy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food was delicious. Had a reservation and waited about ten minutes. Well worth it. Service was fantastic. Waitress very knowledgeable. Had the gnocchi and it was delish. I did not get sick. Wouldn’t bother with the gf Garlic bread which is a pizza crust but other than that it was fantastic. Will definitely eat here again.

Heavenly. I am very sensitive and it is rare for me to walk out of a restaurant feeling 100%. This is one of those rare places.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Best gluten free Italian menu around! They have gluten free garlic bread, gnocchi, all things I’ve missed since being diagnosed with celiacs.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great food and environment! Pretty much all the pasta dishes can be done gluten free and so can the pizza. They offer gf penne and gnocchi. A bit pricey but definitely will return.

Homemade fresh gf gnocchi is a must!

Excellent gluten free menu great pizza and pasta dishes I'll be going back!

Celiac friendly?

Excellent gluten free pizza and mussels. Staff took our gluten free recommendations seriously.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They even had GF garlic bread! Delicious

GF penne pasta was great and this place is reasonably priced.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great gluten free options. Pizza was cooked in an aluminum disposable tin to prevent cross contamination.

NO STARS GIVEN. Such rude waiting staff. Their garlic bread was a plain gf crust with garlic sprinkled on it. We moved our table, after asking the wait staff, because we had been bitten twice within 5 minutes of being seated with dirty dish buckets. A different waitress came to us and was blaming us for moving. The hostess then came down and continued to complain to us that we were messing up their night. They wanted us to move back to the table we were being hit at, so we left. The garlic bread was trash, didn’t bother to stay to try the rest. Do not recommend.

Celiac friendly?

As far as food goes, I got gnocchi in an Alfredo sauce and I absolutely devoured it. Plus they have gf garlic bread (although it’s just pizza crust and not “bread” but I still liked it). The only thing I didn’t like was that I would say is don’t sit downstairs like we did since it has a weird smell down there.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff very nice and knowledgeable. My Celiac daughter liked the pizza. Thin, comes in a tin pan, tasted good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Have eaten pizza from here twice and had a great experience both times. Every pizza can be made gluten free!! The pizzas are really good and I love that I can try different kinds. They are really careful about cross contamination- I have never gotten sick and I am very sensitive to cross contamination. They have gf garlic bread and pasta on the menu that I have yet to try. Will be back again!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was fabulous - we had pizza and pasta- and the staff was very knowledgeable about gluten free. Will definitely go back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Besides being crowded and most of the people there being rude, the server I had was nice and knowledgeable about the GF options. BUT, it didn’t taste good. The pasta was basic GF pasta, nothing special, and the gluten free pizza was on a frozen crust, but it really didn’t taste good. Nothing to write home about. I was very disappointed.

I love this place. It’s a bit pricy but I can’t resist the delicious gf Italian food here. It your in town and Gluten free this is a must!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Had the gluten free garlic bread and got shrimp scampi with gluten free pasta. Our waitress was very knowledgeable and reassuring 👍

Daughter has celiac. Got GF gnocchi and said they tasted amazing. Waitress was very knowledgeable and gave recommendations for GF appetizers.

Gluten free pizza, garlic bread, gnocchi and penne. Great experience!

Celiac friendly?

Love eating here. It’s my go to for the north end.

The GF gnocchi was amazing. The owners daughter has celiac so they get it. So much food, such great flavor. A must eat for a celiac!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place was bar far my favorite stop in Boston! Our server was Celiac also and had several recommendations, all of which were fantastic! This place does GF Italian right. Get the gnocchi...you will die and go to Heaven! Word to the wise - make a reservation because it gets busy!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We had the GF gnocchi and the GF penne - both were delicious. Our Celiac daughter enjoyed every bite + GF garlic bread. No signs of any issues afterwards. Highly recommend!

Great food! They offer many gluten free items including pasta, gnocchi, salads, Garlic bread, bruschetta, and most meat dishes. I had the fog and coat cheese salad and the pesto gnocchi. So good. So creamy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

There are restaurants with more options at better prices, but it’s worth coming here for the gnocchi alone. Heavenly! I dream of the pesto gnocchi. The carbonara was also very tasty.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

One of the best Italian meals I have ever had. My server has celiac herself, so I felt comfortable with her recommendations. I had a shrimp and scallop pasta dish (GF pasta of course) and it was so good. My gluten eating husband even loved my dish. We will be back!

This place is fantastic. Several types of gf pasta and pizza crust. Also, all their sauces are made to order so there are so many options! I got gf gnocchi with scallops and shrimp in a garlic butter whit wine sauce and it was divine. Definitely going back!!!

Gluten free gnocchi. Yahs. Celiac friendly.

Staff was knowledgeable about celiac. Our son had gnocchi with delicious pesto sauce.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Tasty GF pizza and outstanding GF gnocchi. Helpful and knowledgeable staff, too.

I had the Bolognese which was outstanding, but the gf penne was gritty and tasteless. I would skip the penne next time. The nongf family members loved their pizza & fra diavlo. Would definitely return.

Gluten free gnocchi and bolognese sauce was so delicious. Waitress was knowledgeable of gluten free needs. Overall delicious experience.

My husband and I had two gf pizzas and bruscetta. I was disappointed because per the other reviews on here I was expecting amazing house made crust. They use a frozen pre made pizza crust which is the same exact crust zios uses. It's not horrible just was not the amazing "authentic" vibe you expect for being in little Italy. The pesto sauce was also flavorless. Not worth the money if you're GF.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I lived in the North End for two years in college and came here when I didn’t have Celiacs. Now that I do, I still go back and it’s one of my favorite places to go. The shrimp scampi is unbelievable and I do not get sick! They also have gf pizza which I would like to try next time I go.

Celiac friendly?

No

Waitress told us that “you came to the right place” went through the menu she said all sauces were gluten free. Well my sister had GF penne alfredo and got violently ill 2 hours later. Clearly glutened by her meal. I think they need a separate menu so they circumvent uneducated servers. Made us miss our concert at the garden! Be 100% careful and talk to the chef.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

WOWWWW. I have had celiac for over 5 years, and I have never had gluten free Italian food this good. You can have almost any meal gluten free as they have gluten free pasta, gnocchi, and pizza. I ordered the four baked gnocchi dish and it was the best meal I have ever had! I am very sensitive to gluten and did not get sick. The restaurant is super popular and crowded, so it is great they are so good with gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ate here 4 years ago and came back as was so good! Fab gf options as most items (pizza, pasta & gnochi) can be adapted. Loved it

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very yummy place with gf pizza and pasta. The pizza was cooked on its own separate metal container so there was no cross contamination, would highly recommend!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is my go to gluten free Italian place in the North End. Food is yummy, never gotten sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had the gf gnocchi so worth it! Waitress was very knowledgeable about entire menu!

Very good GF pizza. I have CD and am fine but I Am not sure how strict their protocols are.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious food and knowledgeable staff. GF gnocchi is fantastic and so is the vodka prosciutto pizza! Only downside is that the "garlic bread" they offer costs 8 dollars and is just sliced up GF pizza crust with some garlic on top - not worth the money. Other than that the food is really great

Excellent gf gnocchi with vodka sauce. Server confirmed pasta is cooked separately.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent gluten-free options. Our waitress was very knowledgeable. I had a bowl of pasta fagioli and a GF pizza. This is a 5 star restaurant but I took off one star because of two things: First, there is small print on the menu that said if you share an Entree, each person sharing will be charged $8. There were 5 of us and we were just looking to share a pizza and an appetizer or two. Luckily, I saw that before we ordered and told our waitress we were leaving because of that. She said she would not enforce that rule so we stayed but I thought that was pretty sleezy. the other thing was they got our pizza order wrong. It was supposed to be sausage and green peppers but it came out with sausage and pepperoni. Not a big deal. Pizza was good.
