Thats what we strive for! Safe dining for people with restrictions, allergen or celiac.
Review
Entire menu (minus ravioli) is or can be made gf. Delicious pasta and not just the penne everyone else serves! Looked homemade. Servings small and prices high but sometimes worth the splurge. Warmed udi’s buns served as table bread with oil & vinegar for dipping.

98% of our menu is naturally gluten free or has a gluten free option. All fried items are naturally gluten free, so there is NO cross contamination at all. The only 2 items that do not have a gluten free option are Lobster Ravioli and Cheese Ravioli. However, if you are looking for GF lobster options, I would highly recommend the Lobster Carbonara or the Mariscada. Additionally, all of our gluten free pasta is prepared on a designated cooking station on the stove. Lastly, we also offer gluten free bread with your meal so you can enjoy dipping it in oil and balsamic!

Review
I emailed with Arlene & John, the owners, ahead of my visit. I am dairy free as well as celiac. They went out of their way to prepare a safe and delicious meal for me. I had chicken piccata, which is not on their menu, but they happily made this for me. It was incredibly flavorful and really special to receive such detailed care. Highly recommend!

Review
So glad we went here. So good. So friendly. And we felt safe. My husband is celiac and we had chicken broccoli Alfredo and Veal parm. Both celiac friendly for sharing purposes. I took one for the team. But as a non celiac I will say it was so good. Glad to find a safe delicious restaurant so we can return to the Northend.

Every item on the menu can be GF minus the ravioli and this restaurant is celiac friendly!! I know right;$ The server had a cousin celiac and understands the cross contamination issue!!
Cute place stop in when you are in Boston.

IF YOU ARE GF (and in the North End) YOU MUST COME HERE! My whole party had a wonderful experience. Our server Dominick was so kind, honest and knowledgeable and almost the ENTIRE menu is gluten free. No one in my party has Celiac except me and everyone had a great time. All the fried things (calamari, oysters, Parmesan, fries) were so tasty to them as well. As a local in Cambridge I am so excited to (finally!) have an inclusive, modern, option in the North End. Can’t wait to bring all future visitors (GF and otherwise) here!

I had the best experience at Libertine North End! Almost every item on their menu has a gluten free option. The waiter was so knowledgeable (and coincidentally had celiac). I had the calamari and the veal parm with delicious gluten free rigatoni. Highly recommend!

Had an amazing pasta dish here! The pasta was perfectly aldente. Was told they could make their entire menu gf, including the chicken parm. The atmosphere was lovely and welcoming. They were busy but accommodated us without a reservation on a Saturday night.
