Tuccis Cucina Italiana

Honestly, didn’t love the pasta. I got the gf pasta with shrimp and clams. The pasta was hard and tasted like the barilla brand from Walmart. Very pricey for not great product but didn’t get sick.

I was nervous to go because I haven't been to an Italian restaurant since being diagnosed with celiac disease and I'm extremely sensitive to even the slightest croscontamination. I was pleasantly surprised to not get sick and that the food was really delicious. The pasta was actually really good! The only reason I give it 4 stars is that the service was awful. 4 tables that seated after me got their drinks and orders taken before a server even talked to me. Then the server was completely unaware of the gluten free options. Luckily they did get my order in correctly and it was made correctly and was delicious. I'll consider going back, but maybe more for take out instead of eating there.

One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve ever been to!! The decoration felt right out of Italy and the staff were so friendly and helpful. They can do almost all pasta gluten free except the stuffed ones. The breadsticks is actually just the pizza crust but it was nice to have a bread option. I had the mushroom pasta and it was amazing. The flourless chocolate cake was just delicious. I would love to go back!

Hands down favorite GF place in Salt Lake! The chef is super knowledgable and has reportedly been making gluten free food since the restaurant opened 20+ years ago! The chef takes pride in making safe GF food and even came out to introduce himself after the meal. I have celiac and am super sensitive to cross contamination and even flour in the air if it settles on my food. Didnt get sick here and this is one of the few places I feel confident eating! The food was amazing! They even had GF lasagna and GF dessert! Great wine selection too! Great ambiance and authentic Italian food from a Sicilian chef!

Tucci’s is the only establishment in Salt Lake City area that I’ve found where the owner (whose Italian) clearly understands Celiac disease. There are gluten free pasta options for many of the pasta dishes and gluten free pizza 🍕 options. Many Italian glutenfree choices and all of them are delicious 😋

The lasagna and portobello y pollo are two of my favorites!

This has to be my favorite gluten free place in salt lake. As someone with pretty severe celiac it’s a struggle to go out to eat and trust the staff know what they’re talking about. The owner is such a kind man and has had the same kitchen staff for 20+ years. My personal favorite is the fettuccine but the specials are always delicious as well! Not the greatest gluten free bread but everything else is very authentic italian and amazing.

My GF pasta was fine, nothing fancy and I’m not celiac so can’t comment regarding cross contamination. However, my son has serious food allergies and despite our calling ahead and asking and talking with the waitress who talked to the kitchen his food came out with one of his allergens (milk) clearly visible. We sent it back and pretty sure they just replated it. We will never eat here again.

Jammer has been the best waiter there forever! They have GF lasagna, pasta, bread and cake. He made a recommendation of chicken with Pancetta and GF noodles and a garlic cream sauce with veggies. It was great! The chocolate cake was also great. I didn't not try the GF bread, but had asked bout the fonduta, which I used to get prior to celiac, and it was a no go as there is flour in the fondue, but he went back and double checked which I appreciated!

This is an amazing family run business that takes such great precautions to make the yummiest gluten free pasta. There’s one pasta dish that has artichokes and peppers that absolutely rocked my world. I’m pretty sure almost every pasta can be made gluten free. Each dish is specially made and we just love this place!!!

Amazing quality/quantity. This place is my favorite Italian restaurant.

They do not have a gluten free menu but the server was knowledgeable about what I could have. The food was mediocre but the service was good. I felt some headaches for a few days afterwards which could have been from cross contamination.

Papa Tucci was so kind and very knowledgeable on gf! Food was incredibly incredibly delicious. I got con pollo which was Alfredo sauce, spaghetti noodles, leeks, chicken, bacon, and house made Italian sausage. Favorite pasta I think I’ve ever had. There were even options for gf breadsticks! And gf pizza. Everything was fresh. Owner told us that pretty much everything can be made gf except stuffed pastas (and calzones I’d assume). Wish I lived in SLC so I could eat here weekly.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Our server (Brian) was so knowledgable and quick to answer questions. The menu was clearly labeled for gf restrictions and there were tons of options. All sauces were gf and they had both gf pasta and pizza. We had the *lamb & risotto *pasta con pollo *pasta arrezio *flourless chocolate cake

The pasta con pollo (with Alfredo, leeks, pancetta, sausage, and chicken) was absolutely heavenly! The other dishes were all very good as well.

Delicious with wonderful service! He can pretty much make anything on the menu gluten free with the exception of the calzones. We even got serenaded at the end of our meal. It was a fun family lunch!

I enjoy the great gf food and friendly service here. I have never had an issue with cross contamination here

Celiac friendly?

The staff is open to ensuring that everyone has a great dining experience. They will always double check if there is a gluten concern, which has never been an issue.
