All of the pasta meals can be made with gluten free pasta. I had the vegan ragou which was quite nice. Waiter seemed a bit unsure about what on the menu was gluten free but did check with the kitchen and inform them I was coeliac.

Waiter said they used to have gluten free pizza but the flour was hard for them to import so no longer have it, hopefully it will return some day.

A great find in Georgetown. Very friendly staff. Italian owner/ chef who understands GF & cross-contamination. Staff are happy to check with chef and advise on what is / isn't GF and they answer FB messages quickly to confirm too. Pasta is GF and they make Chickpea flatbread which they gave instead of regular bread basket. Soup / salads are also GF but again, staff are happy to check if they're not sure. Great meal and lunchtime deal for a good price.
