Very limited menu options, although safe. A lot of stuff was off limits due to cross contact of the shared fryer but a server who also had celiac told me that only ONE item (the crispy pork) had gluten that goes in the fryer so I wish they could make it dedicated bc it would’ve added so many more options!!

I would’ve loved to get the house made ricotta or burrata but they didn’t have gf bread or crackers…only LAY’S POTATO CHIPS LOL.

we split the bolognese and the chicken was was good but extremely small portions for the price***** we left hungry!!!

Try the spaghetti with clams (saffron, tomato, butter sauce), and the chicken (pollo Al mattone). They make the gf spaghetti in house. Also try the creamsicle dessert which is much better than an actual creamsicle. They do have a gf menu, but some fried items that are fried in a shared fryer are listed as gf, so ask questions. The broccoli Caesar salad is also nice. Nice neighborhood bistro.

One of the best restaurants I’ve been to in boston! I have a gluten and dairy allergy, and they brought me a separate gluten free menu specially marked with anything dairy free. I got a pasta dish with duck meat and it was incredible. I also got a bunch of appetizers (fried chickpeas, Brussels sprouts and a broccoli dish) and everything was amazing. They also confirmed that everything was dairy/gluten free when each dish was brought out. I made my next reservation before I even left the restaurant!

Had a wonderful experience here!! The server was very knowledgeable and went over everything that was celiac-safe on the menu. The GF pasta is homemade and delicious. My husband and I shared the bolognese and cacio e pepe GF pastas, in addition to the burrata salad and the grilled octopus starter. The server also brought out GF almond cookies with the check. Would highly recommend!

They have a dedicated gluten free menu, which even indicates which items pose a risk of cross contamination. The gluten free pasta bolognese was delicious. Will be back soon!

Staff was very accommodating and knowledgeable of Gluten allergy. They use different colored plates to distinguish GF allergy dishes. Almost the entire menu can be made gluten free, including pasta dishes. I shared my pasta with my non-GF friend and she couldn’t tell the difference.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
