Went here after reading the great reviews. Staff is very friendly and extremely helpful and accommodating. I am GF as well as corn-free, with the latter actually being the more difficult sensitivity when eating out. Our server Karen was awesome, being careful to check with the kitchen regarding any GF menu item that I was interested in. Unfortunately the GF pastas, breads and pizza crusts all contained corn, but Karen helped me come up with a cocktail as well as a custom GF/CF entree combination that worked and was delicious (although the breaded chicken strips were barely seasoned and lacking in flavor.) My husband had the regular pizza and thoroughly enjoyed it. I would not hesitate to recommend Traverso's to someone who has to eat gluten-free; the selection is great, and the staff's attention to detail certainly increases the odds of a good dining experience.
Extensive gluten free menu (almost mirrors the regular menu). I have been told they have a GF dedicated fryer.
My daughter has multiple food allergies. The waitress and chef were wonderful. They produced a food list with asterisked items that could be substituted in addition to the gluten free menu! The chef seems like an expert on allergens in food ingredients. All of our food was delish. My husband, daughter and I were very pleased.

Very impressed. The GF bruschetta was SO good. I asked where they get their bread, the waitress said the bakery on sells to restaurants. ☹️ Will definitely be coming back to try more food off the GF menu.
I ate here after wanting to try a new place and reading about all the gf options people talked about in their comments. Everyone is right- the gf menu is in unbelievable and the food is fantastic. Usually there aren't many options so it's not hard to make a choice, but TrAverso's has a little bit of everything! I had the gf chicken carbonara. It tastes like the real deal and I even got some gf bread to go with it! I went on a Saturday night and I did have to wait quite a while for my food, but they stagger the salad and bread so it's not like you're just waiting with an empty stomach. Highly recommend and will definitely be going back to try more of what they have to offer.
Had chicken wings and chicken strips—the ranch was to die for. So great to eat some “football food” along with everyone else :)
I love this place. Four words gluten free fried chicken. Homemade and not out of a box. I live about 45 minutes from this restaurant and I can definitely say it is worth the drive.
They have FRIED CHICKEN! This is a great place with a huge GF menu and everything is great too. On a busy night my food took longer that expected (which I didn't care about because that usually means they're being cautious in the kitchen) and they gave my wife and I both free dessert! They have a gluten free version of a signature dessert there and it was great. Awesome experience at this place!
I had the most Amazing dinner last night! Ever since I have been diagnosed with Celiac Disease it's been a challenge to go out to dinner and not worry about cross contamination and getting extremely sick and not to mention finding something worthy to eat. Traverso's Restaurant did an amazing job. I felt totally fine after dinner. The GlutenFree Menu was rather large. There were so many options. I felt like I was looking at a regular menu from most restaurants compared to places that give you very limited options. I was so impressed 😊. And to top it all off it was Good. ThankYou Traverso's you have given me a gift that I will never forget. The gift of feeling normal for once!
I got to have warm gf bread as appetizer at Italian restaurant!so good, I so missed having bread like everyone else while out! I had an avocado App that was divine, side salad with no croutons but good tasting ceasar dressing, gf penned with meat sauce. I was really impressed.
Tonight's dinner was indicative of all our experiences with Traversos, excellent food with excellent service. We have been regulars of their delivery service for years, always quality pizza, soups, pasta. The house cheeseburger is top notch! However, we were delighted to find they had an unbelievably extensive gluten free menu, including bread, buns, pasta, and pizza. To top it off, we have had great luck with friendly delivery drivers and in house servers. Truly a family favorite.
We love this place! Gluten free fried chicken is the best. Great staff too!
Oh my gosh! Warm delicious gf bread. Huge gf menu! Fried chicken was amazing. A must for gf people who are missing having options!
4 words - Gluten Free Fried Chicken. Love - will be back. Ribs were only ok... Chicken was awesome. Also have GF beer. Felt so normal eating out
First place I went to eat out after being diagnosed with Celiacs. The entire staff was wonderful answering all my questions. We will be back.
Great food. They even have gf bread baskets and gf cake for dessert. Love this place!
Having gf bruschetta as an appetizer was such a treat! Amazing gf selection and I did not have any issues with cross-contamination. My waitress was very thorough and double checked with the kitchen to make sure everything was safe. My pasta dish was just okay, but I had a good experience all-around.
Awesome! Food was great and our server was wonderful. She even brought me a brand new unopened bottle of ketchup! We will be back.
I really love the extensive GF menu. However I would be really cautious getting GF items delivered from here. I am having a pretty bad reaction so I don't know if it was cross contamination or what.
I almost cried because they are so thoughtful. Fried chicken and bruschetta. It was fantastic.
Drove two hours to go to this restaurant based off reviews. Did not disappoint. GF menu is extensive. Agree with all GF fried chicken is awesome- and comes with GF bread that actually is decent! Family enjoyed their regular people meals much as well - fettuccine and lasagna. They have several tempting GF dessert options - more extensive than any I'd seen before. Absolutely recommend.
Helpful friendly staff with several options more than any place I know of in the area. Gf pizzas, gf pastas and gf fried chicken in dedicated fryer
Just had the chicken vesuvio! Very good. Knowledgable staff. They are working on a gluten free dessert menu as well! Can't wait!!!
Great they use vinyl gloves! N gluten free options. Dedicated fryers! Awesome!
Great place for Celiacs! Great food! Very knowledgable and friendly staff. Designated fryer for GF fried chicken....did I say GF Fried Chicken? Yes I did! Will be back again!
Best gf restaurant in Naperville. Dedicated fryer. Bread. Many options!
The gf pasta dish that I always order is fantastic, chicken carbonara. The pizza crust is one of the best I have tried. Friendly family restaurant dedicated to a gf menu. Thank you!
GF Fried Chicken and popcorn chicken! Pizza is awesome! Loved that they also let you know what items have dairy in them on the menu.
I have been there twice. Not a big fan. The pizza is okay, I have never been offered gf rolls.
Fantastic food! Lots of options. Popcorn chicken is great! Can't wait to come back!
Hubby and I went here for our anniverary & we loved it!! May be our go to place. He had the lasagana and the portion was huge!! We shared the GF popcorn chicken & loved it!! I seriously thought about getting a to go order! I also had the GF pizza with sausage and mushrooms and it was soo good!!! Want to go back and try the fried chicken and wings next time! Service was good, they have a GF menu and GF rolls before your meal is served. Yummy!! Hoping the next visit is as great as this one!!
They have a robust gluten free menu, and the food is good to outstanding. The atmosphere is good, they have a great staff, and attentive owners. After being diagnosed with celiac, I asked why they didn't have GF beer. They asked me for a recommendation - I suggested easy to get "Redbridge." They have had it ever since!
