I’ve been eating here for years with no problems. Very delicious food, and they’re knowledgeable about cross contamination. FYI though - they changed their gluten free pizza crust recently, the new one is like spongy bread and doesn’t taste as good as the old one did.

Owner has celiac so the restaurant understands the safety protocols. My teen loves the GF pizza that is prepared in a separate area. We haven’t tried the GF pasta yet but will update when we do.

This is the only Italian restaurant in the area that offers gluten free ravioli! Most only offer penne as a gf pasta choice. The taste was delicious and the texture was identical to regular ravioli. I will be trying the gf pizza next. Great prices compared to other local Italian options.

Yummy! Ordered take out. Had the GF pizza and side salad. Seems to have lots of options. No reaction!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing gluten free food! Pizza and pasta. One of the owner's (I think) has Celiac so this place is very safe to eat. All the salad dressings are homemade and gluten free. Many of the pasta dishes can be made gluten free. My favorite is the Spaghetti Carbonara. I have not tried the pizza yet but I'm sure it's as good as their other gluten free food.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Had lunch here today with celiac daughter with no issues. They have separate kitchen space for gluten free foods.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Eat the GF pizza here every time I visit my brother in law. I don’t even bother testing with my Nima anymore ... very good and celiac safe.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This will forever remain one of my favorite pizza places. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable of Celiac Disease. They prepare their pizzas in a separate area for allergies. I have never once gotten sick!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I've lived here for four years and have never eaten here until today. The waitress was very knowledgeable about celiac disease and cross contamination. I was informed the owner's wife is celiac and so they take the upmost precautions with handling their food. As a celiac, it's always scary to try a new place. I will definitely be back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent gluten-free pizza and an incredibly kind staff. They only draw is their macaroni (my non-gf 6-year-old's restaurant meal of choice) is very bland (according to everyone else at the table).

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Lots of gluten free options. My Celiac son said the GF pizza was great. We are from the LA area and found this while traveling. Nice homey atmosphere and friendly wait staff.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We were driving down to San Diego and needed to find a place for lunch. This restaurant popped up on the app so we decided to give it a try and we loved it. All food was really good and they have a huge selection of GF options. They are knowledgeable about Celiac and cross-contamination, so I felt safe feeding my daughter there (she is the one with Celiac.) Their GF pizza was probably the best we've tried, and we've sampled many before. Their regular pizza was excellent as well. Service was quick and friendly, and the place was cute. It will be our go-to place when we are in the area.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The BEST gluten free pizza!!!! Never gotten sick and I'm very sensitive

Fantastic food. Not only is it absolutely gluten free, they also can make 90% of the menu gluten free. The owners wife has celiacs so you know this food is safe. My husband and I had pizza last night, they even had a gluten free pesto which I have missed pesto so much. They also offered an Alfredo pizza which I can't wait to try. Tonight we had pasta my husband had spaghetti and Italian sausage and I ravioli. This is by far going to be a frequent spot of ours. Not only is it great gluten free food it's just amazing food! Can't rave enough about this gem. You have to try it!

Not only is their pizza amazing but they now have gf ravioli that is ridiculous! Love!!

They no longer offer the thick crust pizza. GF soup and salad options limited.

Great pizza crust. I had the thick. Can't get that everywhere. Nice friendly atmosphere as well. Can't wait to go back and try their pasta.

I've been eating here for over 20 years. Now that I'm gluten free, I I had the thick crust gluten free pizza. It was great!
