Another completely safe and tasty meal. The homemade gluten free pasta is amazing. Gluten free food is prepared in a separate area. The meal clearly labels what items, which is a very large portion of the menu, are gluten free. Save room for dessert because there are many great options including tiramisu and homemade gelato and sorbetto.

I have celiac and ate there this summer. While the food was delicious and the restaurant purports to be super celiac safe, I got glutened here—badly. Worse than I have been in a very long time. I had two kinds of “celiac safe” pasta with the mortadella and split it all with my husband, so I have no idea what it was. All I know is, at least for me, it was not celiac safe!

Owners daughter has celiac, they where so knowledgeable and willing to make almost every single menu item gluten free. The owner even came by to say hi. Stomach hurt at first but it went away quickly and was due to the amount of food I ate:)

All of the menu items that are gluten free are marked and celiac safe. My friend who is celiac and also dairy free got a menu marked up by one of the owners as to what could be made gluten and dairy free or naturally dairy free by default! An outstanding service and will definitely be back!

Incredible experience, I stumbled across it and immediately was drawn to the fried artichoke hearts, then learned that the owners daughter is Celiac. They have a dedicated GF lab, make their pasta and were incredibly accommodating. The pasta was delicious, the artichoke hearts I’ll Be dreaming off and there were so many dessert options. Thankful they are here, will be back!

Excellent in every way! Drinks were unique and tasty, having mozzarella sticks that hold up when you lift them but cheese stretches like we’re used to with non-gf was a delight (and the caviar was a surprising upgrade), and two other diners at the bar asked if my cacio e pepe was as good as it looked, not knowing it was gf. Servers were knowledgeable and lovely, staff confirmed food was gf and safe for celiac when bringing each plate, and everything was delicious. Well worth the price for anyone on the fence

An amazing spot to enjoy the food of some of Boston’s best chefs without having to worry about GF/DF options. Waitstaff was incredibly knowledgeable and helped me identify what could be made DF (in addition to GF). Make a reservation here ASAP!

This meal was hands down the best meal I have had post gluten allergy diagnosis. The menu is extremely wide and diverse. The number of items not available gluten free is very small. In this restaurant GF means celiac safe as written on their menus. Their pasta section was large and you can substitute any of their pastas for house made celiac safe pasta. We ordered the squid ink pasta and expected it to come with a generic pasta but the variations are made celiac safe too. It felt great to eat a complete dish as intended, not missing parts here and there which has been my experience. Fried artichokes and chicken Milanese were also huge standouts for us. We sat on the patio and I think this is a perfect date night spot. We can’t wait to come back.

Menu states that all gluten free items are celiac safe and the staff was very knowledgeable. They even have a separate kitchen where they make homemade gluten free pasta. Excellent food + very safe. This will be added to my regular rotation!

Horrible - waited an hour for a table with my celiac daughter, then they wanted to seat us at the bar next to a drunk person, refused to move us to a table even though there were open ones in view - kiddo has still never eaten mozzarella sticks and she was crying :(

I ordered the shrimp and crab pasta and it was incredible. A fun, GF pasta shape and amazing taste and texture. The server ensured me that the pasta was made in house and in a separate kitchen. They verbally indicated what dishes were GF and not when brought to our table. I am not sick several hours later, and so excited to go back. My only complaint is that it’s expensive, but I knew that going in.

Another fantastic Ken Oringer and Jamie Bissonnette restaurant with almost an entire menu that is gluten free, and labeled. Our server was incredible and after sampling over half the menu on my first visit can say that it the food is excellent. The fried mozzarella sticks with caviar and the fried artichokes on the smoke plates were fantastically, and they even had a breaded chicken Milanese main that was great! I Have celiacs and felt great after. Highly recommend!

Great restaurant, the staff are informed about celiac disease and quickly explained how I could get any of the pasta dishes (except one) made gluten free in a separate kitchen space. I got the seafood pasta and it was surprisingly spicy but good!

Had a great time here and loved every thing that came out. Fabulous service too. We had grilled octopus, mozzarella sticks, squid ink trottole, and orecchiette baresi. Baci di Dama and Solera for dessert. The Sicilian Bumble is a must try drink.

This place deserves infinite stars!! Their menu specifically notes that the gluten free items are celiac safe (literally they have a separate kitchen). The chef’s daughter is celiac so I felt fully understood! Also everything was amazing. The gf pasta in particular was the best I’ve had in my life.

Absolutely incredible. Celiac safe separate kitchen so zero cross-contamination. Four different kinds of gluten-free homemade pasta. I cannot say enough good things we had the most incredible meal here. Everyone was so nice and understanding everything that’s gluten-free is clearly labeled and it is such a great feeling to know that there is zero chance of cross-contamination here. It is also fun that they have a kitchen that creates regular food if your partner or dinner guest is not gluten-free although the gluten-free food was so good they probably wouldn’t even notice. There is a cool speakeasy bar downstairs that’s also fun for post dinner cocktails
