Symptomatic Celiac
yesterday

Waiter was very knowledgeable and told me everything I could and couldn’t have when I said I have celiac. For dessert, he even told me that several of the gelato flavors were gluten free but that they were made on the same equipment as non-GF gelato and to steer clear. Pasta was DELICIOUS, 100% the best GF pasta I’ve had since my diagnosis. Didn’t get sick and I’m very sensitive!

I ate here recently and they serve spinach noodles that are cooked separately in a plate. All the sauces on the menu are gluten free. The staff are very knowledgeable and understand the issues of those with coeliac disease. The Graser salad was also very tasty and served GF. A little pricey but very safe and very tasty. It is highly recommended.

This place is soooo good. Delicious pasta - a spinach fettuccine. Almost every sauce can be served GF, and most of the mains too. I had the bolognese and it was some of the best I’ve ever had. My non GF partner had the prawn and mussel linguine and was just as happy as me. And the service was amazing. Felt super comfortable eating here as all the staff were knowledgeable on GF. Big portions and excellent value for money.

I was so happy to see Fino on the Ap! I’d been there several times and loved it but didn’t know they were so gf conscious for my daughter with celiac. The house made spinach fettuccine is delicious and they made it for her with an Alfredo sauce - you’d never even know it was gf. Wish they offered gf bread (Mariposa baguette would be great) but it was so nice to enjoy a meal with something for everyone! The atmosphere is cozy and service is amazing. Call for reservations - not a big place but they’re very accommodating. My go to for special occasion celebration!

Service was fantastic. Server was very knowledgeable about gluten issues. He said the food was prepared in a separate GF area. The food was even better. They had freshly made gluten free linguine. Apparently the chef is working on a GF pizza crust, but they do not offer GF pizza at this time. No other pasta was GF.

Food is wonderful, have never gotten sick. We will continue to go there every year on our anniversary, as long as it keeps serving safe gluten free food. I am a hard core celiac, so not many places that I am ok at.

I’ve dined here 5 or 6 times. Pasta and salads are delicious but I’ve been glutened here twice and will not be returning. So bummed, it’s such a treat when you can partake in eating (gf) pasta with others. Not great when it runs thru you

Can’t say enough good things about Fino. As a Celiac it is nice to dine at an Italian restaurant who takes gluten free seriously. They make their own GF Spinach pasta in house and have many gluten free items. Our waiter was knowledgeable about what items could be modified and made sure to tell the chef to cook it separately. He even requested no bread be brought to table without asking (I brought my own gf bread to enjoy). Enjoyed a delicious chicken piccata with lemon capers.

I've eaten here twice and can't wait to come back. They take care in listening to your needs and can substitute gluten free pasta for most of the menu. I love this place and can't wait to come back... Came back to update my review. I go here every time I visit the city. They really care about dietary needs and the food is outstanding.

I rarely eat Italian food out due to the concern of cross contamination. Fino takes cross contamination seriously!! Separate everything. I had gluten free spinach fettuccine - excellent!!! So exciting to find a safe place to eat! Bravo Fino!

Second time I’ve been here, and it didn’t disappoint! The gf pasta here is to die for - the best noodles I’ve ever had, even counting full gluten noodles pre-diagnosis. The sauces are amazing, the servers are lovely. They make the noodles from scratch and ensured no cross contamination - separate cutting boards and everything. Boil it in a separate pot too by default. They told me today that they’re working on a gf pizza dough too!! Can’t wait!

I have a severe allergy against gluten and spend the night in the ER after eating here. I had gluten free pasta which I think was fine and I had the chicken which I believe was totally not fine but breaded. I told them 4 times I was severely allergic to gluten and they still messed it up. Do not go here!

I had an amazing time there (the day I went it was garlic pasta for gluten free pasta but I believe they change it regularly, anyway it was delicious). I also had a crème brûlée for the desert. Perfectly safe ans good!

Love it here! The GF pasta is delicious, and almost anything on the menu can be made GF, dairy free, or both. All except three desserts are GF too so you won’t be left out there either! Waitstaff is knowledgeable about allergies. It’s a nice, slightly pricey restaurant but everything I’ve tried is delicious and the portions are much larger than I feel you usually get at this type of restaurant.

Their only GF noodle is a fettuccini. They did once accidentally bring me the wrong pasta before quickly fixing it and comping my part of the meal, but worth double checking as always in non-dedicated facilities that they’ve used the right noodles.

We tested the pasta with Nima several times and it came back as gluten found every single time. They were very defensive and their response was they’ve done this enough to know it’s gluten free.

Delicious food and one of the best GF pastas I’ve had in a long time. Most things could be ordered with GF noodles and they asked allergy or preference so they do seem to have a different method for both. Didn’t end up sick which is always a relief

Great service. Delicious pasta; they make 1 gluten free noodle (rotates daily)that you can then pair with any of the toppings/sauces from the regular menu. Prepared separately. Server said every other table now has a GF request because of this app and its reviews! Limited dessert selection- but you’ll be too full anyway. Pretty small place located in the Andrews Hotel. So,Go early or make reservations.

Believe the hype on this app about this place! It’s all true. This restaurant is outstanding! Our waiter knew about the Find Me Gluten Free app and said it’s brought in a lot of business. They are very knowledgeable about celiac and the fresh GF pasta is out of this world. I had the pomodoro fresco con Linguine and was it ever great to have a nice Italian entree of Veal Piccata with fingerling potatoes. It always seems that dishes like this are dusted In flour and are off limits. This was really special. We are returning tomorrow before heading home from our vacation.

Tucked away inside of a hotel, for those of us with celiac disease, this little gem has got some terrific gluten free linguine to substitute in most dishes. We ordered several entrees and shared family style; found everything tasty and stomach agreed! And yet it was the Primitivo that was the star of the show!! My goodness that bottle has aged perfectly and pairs with almost every dish on the menu. They even accommodated our +1 to our 4-top reservation. Great night, great food, absolutely perfect wine!

Very GF friendly. Waiter was knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Many items to choose for including desserts. They take the necessary cross contamination precautions. The flavors were great but I didn't love their house made gf pasta (although I certainly appreciated it!). It broke apart and was a little mushy. The overall experience was great and next time maybe I won't get a pasta dish. Still highly recommend for a special night out.
