More like Puka di Beppo... This restaurant was very unaccomadating to my gluten free needs. The chicken I ordered was awful. It looked like it was tossed on the plate and tasted like it had been dragged along the floor.
This review is for the Mira Mesa location…unfortunately so poor I'd never risk dining at another location. The service, selection and awareness of gluten free needs were the worst I've ever seen. Management has failed to train their staff and the chefs simply can't be bothered. It boils down to sheer laziness and an uncaring attitude. How difficult is it to stock a GF pasta? Even Vons carries it. Telling a celiac to just eat bruschetta topping alone by picking off the toasted bread that touched the entire serving was just plain idiotic. It's like in a Mexican place giving someone a spoon and a bowl of salsa and saying," Have at it."…yuck. I didn't feel welcome and will never return.

Asked if they have gluten free options and the waiter told me “ this is an italian restaurant…” and laughed in my face .
Their GF menu consists of grilled chicken and vegetables….thats it. Super disappointing.
The caprese salad and the chopped antipasti salad are fan favs. Then we thoroughly enjoyed the salmon sorrento.. all GF.
only one item you can get gluten free very unfortunate if you don’t like chicken then don’t bother coming. lied about having a gluten free menu.
I believe the dishes we got were gluten free and I do not feel sick. But, the chicken was like rubber, the lemon sauce was good, but the chicken inedible.
