Update during lockdown: I love that they deliver throughout the UK! Brilliant place! I felt completely safe, and enjoyed the creative, artisanal food. Plenty of vegetarian options as well, and all allergens clearly indicated. Will certainly be back!

Pasta
Bruschetta was lovely.
Brownie too dense for my linking. Good flavor but texture didn’t work for me - might have been in the fridge too long.
The menu wasn’t updated but I went ahead with the mushroom pasta but it’s now with a tomato noddle. Pasta was good but overall dish was Ok.

My son is coeliac and everything is GF. Really nice fresh bread. The pesto pasta was definitely the nicest dish we had, wasn’t so keen on the clam spaghetti as it was a bit bland.

For dessert we had the cheese cake and brownie, the former was tasty. The brownie suffered from being vegan.

Amazing food and service. Everything is GF here and delicious. We ate here twice in a week because we loved it. The bruschetta appetizer is fabulous. Make a reservation because it’s always packed.

Dedicated gf menu. My non celiac son and I cleaned our plates. It’s small, tricky to find, doesn’t look like much when you see it. But you’ll likely need a reservation and the food and service were all great.

Consider me unimpressed. The focaccia was so salty, it was difficult to eat. Also, one piece was under baked and another piece was burnt. I had the pink ravioli and my husband had the cannelloni with vegan ragu. The ravioli was just okay but the cannelloni was pretty good. It was hard to enjoy the atmosphere because a guy, that appeared to be the owner, was spastically running around pretty much the entire time )it is a very small space). I was so disappointed by the end that I didn’t even care to look at the dessert menu. Maybe they were just having an off day...

Fantastic restaurant! 100% gluten free, 100% enjoyable! Booking recommended (esp. evening). I‘ve been here on several occasions and have always had an absolutely lovely experience. In regard to allergies, they walk the extra mile and are absolutely careful and considerate when handling food. If anything needs to be adjusted or changed they will do it. And service staff is always friendly and attentive, even when it‘s really busy. The range to chose from is selective yet covers many preferences/requirements, so most likely everyone can find something, which makes it great to come here with a group of people who have different likes. The food is incredible, prepared freshly, high quality ingredients that are rich in flavor and texture. The flavor & seasoning of pasta and toppings match perfectly and makes an interesting meal. It‘s presented appealingly and served within a reasonable time as it‘s made to order. Great place!

June 2019: new menu since we were here 4 years ago. No more polenta or gnocchis. Focaccia was outstanding! Pasta was delicious! Brownie dessert and hazelnut dessert were amazing. Highly recommend!

This restaurant was heaven! Everything is gluten free and they accommodated dairy free as well. We started with a vegetable salad with polenta and then had 2 different varieties of gnocchi. Everything was delicious, safe and so fresh! Loved this restaurant and would definitely go back in a heart beat. We are super-sensitive and did not get sick.

100% gluten free! I was AMAZED at how great this place was. First of all, when the server came to my table, the first thing he asked is what my food allergies were. And when I told him, he told me the options that were safe for me. When I ordered my meal, the server brought out an allergen/ingredient chart to cross reference my restrictions to make sure it was safe for me. On top of the staff being thorough and caring, the food was incredible. By far the best gluten free pasta and bread I have ever had. I got the focaccia bread to start, the pappardelle bolognese as my entree, and the vegan brownie and hazelnut cake for dessert. All were amazing. Will DEFINITELY be coming back and recommending to all my friends with dietary restrictions.

Anytime we go out there is always the fear that my wife and daughter will accidentally get gluten. We were especially concerned coming from the states to an unknown country. When my wife found out Leggero is totally gluten free she said “I feel so free here!!!” The food was great and the service was personal and very friendly.

We got the bruschetta that was very good, rice ball that was also very good. My pasta dish was good, my husbands was better. The dessert brownie was very dense and I wish I skipped and went to Yorica! For dessert instead. However, it was an overall enjoyable dinner and the area has a nice vibe to it.

I might have tried this place on an off day because I didn't love the food. Focaccia was very dry and hard, the pasta with beetroot sounded amazing, but the flavor didn't agree with me. Tiramisu was good. 4 stars for being gluten free and allergen friendly. Would try again if I get the opportunity to visit.

Food was AMAZING! The focaccia in particular. And the the pasta. But the service was terrible. That’s why I took a star away. Not sure if they were understaffed that night or something.
