Gluten-Free at North Italia

I had dinner here last night and it was an amazing experience! The entire staff is so knowledgeable about the gluten free options and great about double checking for cross contamination with each dish. We had a salad, pizza and pasta and everything was delicious. I felt completely safe eating here and will definitely be coming back!

This place was great! The server was knowledgeable about gf options. I got the Spicy Meatball pizza without the meatball (not gf). I had the Hazelnut Torta for dessert and it was really delicious.

We ate dinner here as a family in September. My teenagers loved the food as much as I did. The Waiter went above and beyond, in fact all the staff was impressive. The staff was Very knowledgeable about celiac and eager to make our dining experience positive. I would without hesitation eat here again.

The gf bread is a pizza crust the toast but it's good. Salmon was tasty, got it with a risotto. Which was delicious. The staff is knowledgeable about gf options and very pleasant.

I ordered a gluten free pasta online and put in the notes that I can’t have gluten. My body ended up having a strongly negative reaction to it, so there was definitely gluten in the dish. I feel a little anxious about going back there again. Maybe if you order in person they’re more careful to not cross contaminate, but I don’t know for certain.

I loved getting to go out to eat with my friends and be able to enjoy a good similar meal to them! The margarhita pizza on gluten free crust was amazing. I would definitely go back. The waiter seemed confident in the gluten free aspect and was sure to point out every option that I could get, which included pasta and appetizers. (Btw, I went to the one in Austin.)

We walked out before ordering. Our party sat inside, and even though the windows were partially opened, the gluten was overwhelming in the air.

I feel safe eating here and do not get sick. They can make most of the menu GF, but you’ll have to do some mods to eat most/any of the apps or salads. A lot have breadcrumbs etc

They offer gluten free options for many of their pasta dishes and for their flatbreads. The food is excellent and so far I have not had a reaction. I tend to do take away or delivery rather than eating in the restaurant.

North Italia had so many great gluten free options on the menu! Nothing is marked, but the staff is very knowledgeable and most of the menu items can be made gluten free. My boyfriend and I split a salad, gluten free pizza and gluten free pasta and everything was delicious.

Their gf bread is like a pita but it’s very good with the olive oil, balsamic, and cheese on it. The bread, pasta, and pizza are prepared separately to prevent cross contamination. I had the chicken pesto pasta and it was delicious. Highly recommend!!

They have GF pizza crust, GF pasta, and a few GF entrees (steak, chicken, scallops, fish). I’ve had the veggie noodles (zucchini or sweet potato) with dairy free seafood in tasty tomato sauce. Wish they offered GF bread to help soak up the delicious sauces. Dairy free limits your options significantly. There’s no GF/DF desserts. Wish their coconut gelato was coconut milk based!

I spoke to two employees about their cooking process. For pasta, they will get a new pot with fresh water, and they have a separate pan to cook the pizzas to avoid cross-contamination. They also will take extra precaution in preparing salads that at GF.

The food is delicious!! The avocado salad is amazing, as well the prosciutto pizza!! Crust was perfectly cooked and didn’t taste like cardboard!

Enjoyed our meal immensely! Staff seemed knowledgeable and I did not get sick, and I am very sensitive to cross-contamination!

Staff helpful on gluten free. Had pasta that was cooked appropriately, not over or under cooked! Even had a couple of gluten free desert options.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They offer GF pasta and GF flat bread pizzas. Also we ordered a chefs board and the server brought out GF bread for me that they make in house. It was a little hard but still nice to have the option. Our server was very knowledgeable and helpful. I ordered Bolognese with their homemade GF pasta. It was very tasty! Plenty of wine on the menu to order 😊

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free pizza is really good- need to tell them you have an allergy and then they will make everything separately to eliminate cross contamination. Had no issues.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free Pizza was one of the worst I have ever tasted , I am coming from Italy were gluten free pizza looks and taste exactly like a normal pizza , we know how to do it right even gluten free . Here my pizza was with such a hard crust it was almost impossible to cut it and to eat it. Floor manager was really friendly and he comp it from my check .

The staff was unbelievably accommodating to my gluten & dairy intolerance. Our amazing server Jessie insisted that they could make fresh pesto WITHOUT cheese and I was floored. I went ahead and put in my order and a few minutes later the manager came out to confirm and said it would take a littler longer. Well it was absolutely worth the wait. Can’t believe that a restaurant would go the extra mile like this!! Best service ever!!! Love them so much and we will be back...many times over!!!

Extremely knowledgeable and accommodating, strongly recommend. Most menu items can be adjusted to be GF

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food was amazing, staff was knowledgeable & super helpful. Whole family loved it. HIGHLY recommend

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wonderful pizza and GF pasta. Knowledgeable wait staff. Highly recommend

They had gf pizza and pasta. My daughter order the gf pizza and loved it! They also had a gf dessert

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was AMAZING! Best GF pizza! Staff had no idea what gluten free was. At one point when I asked if something was gluten free she replied, “ well it’s just coated in flour and fried so I think you’re good”.... but the food was great, just need to know what your ordering

Antipasto plate was fabulous. Was served with gluten free pizza crusts cut into wedges. Yum!!!! The pasta was very good also

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Sad they won’t admit fault even with gluten free procedures, my brother is celiac and got glutened last night due to cross contamination according to the manager they have a multi set process to avoid this however my brother still got sick instantly. The manager would not accept responsibility for this, just told me they did everything right implying my brother was lying. They do not have a gluten free kitchen so I can understand of these things happen all the manger needed to do was apologize. Eat pizza from North Italia at your own risk.

Celiac friendly?

No

Excellent options! The staff was very knowledgeable and accommodated my requests. Menu items are not marked gluten free but there are gluten free options available (gf pasta and gf pizza crust). The cocktails and food were amazing. Great ambiance as well. This place was a great GF Italian option!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This was such a treat! My sister and I split the Margherita pizza and the Strozzapeti with zucchini noodles without the pine nuts. They do have gluten free pasta as well but we wanted the zucchini instead! Everything was so good. Probably one of the best gluten free pizza I’ve had. I would definitely recommend!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We spoke with a manager before bringing our 8 year old who is Celiac. They seemed very knowledgeable about preventing cross contamination. Separate area and utensils/cutting board. Shared oven for pizzas but they have raised mesh thing they put gf pizzas on to prevent contamination. My daughter had gf pasta and did not get sick. We were treated very well and all of the food was delicious.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was knowledgeable about the difference between gluten free and actually being celiac safe. The kitchen is trained in handling allergies. GF pasta was delicious.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

High prices, small portions. Many items can be made gluten free (they say). I ordered a $15 salad and was planning to split my wife’s pizza that she considerately ordered with the GF crust. After my tiny little salad was delivered, they came back saying they were out of gluten free crust. So my wife got a pizza that we couldn’t share. Later I discovered that they tacked on a GF pizza crust charge of $2.50 for a pizza that was never delivered. I flagged it as celiac friendly, based in their menu, but I didn’t have a good experience. I didn’t get sick but paid an outrageous price for a meal I couldn’t enjoy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’ve eaten there twice and had problems. The first time I ordered a scallop dish and my Nima tested gluten found. I notified the server and they remade the dish - gluten found again.

The second time I ate there, I ordered a salad. I didn’t test it, but my stomach was in knots for the rest of the afternoon.

There are better gluten free options in the same parking lot that I’ve had a better experience with.

Celiac friendly?

No

Lots of Gf options. Seem knowledgeable of cross contamination. Food is mediocre however

Awesome options! Everything I've tried is wonderful. One of my favorites for sure!

Awesome salads and pesto chicken pasta! They also have GF pizzas. One of my favorite places!

The staff was very knowledgeable about what was gluten free and what wasn’t. They are very willing to double check with cooks in the back/managers. Their food is made in house so it takes a little longer to get your food but the wait was definitely worth it. All pizzas and pasta can be made with gluten free noodles and bread. The zucchini chips ARE NOT GF

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My server was knowledgeable and doubled checked with the kitchen to make sure my order was safe. I got the house specialty bolognese with gluten free pasta. They are not kidding when they say it is their specialty, I savored every bite. We also had one of the desserts (the caramel one- I can’t remember the name) it was awesome as well. I had no issue eating here and plan on going back.

Delicious GF kids cheese pizza and many varieties of GF pasta. Ask for GF pizza “bread”. Also GF dessert options. Saw waiter changing gloves to handle/plate bread and meals.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was very knowledgeable about Celiac and very careful about the chicken I added to the salad. The waiter was incredibly helpful. They offer gluten free pasta and pizza but I’d suggest asking more questions about how they prepare those.

Wonderful pizza on a unique gluten free crust

The waiter was awesome and was able to completely create whatever I wanted! They offer rice pasta and can make any pasta you want with it. As well as GF pizza crust

Their atmosphere is fun and vibrant. Fmgf pastas and salads but pizzas are not gf.

I was glad to find that although not listed on their menu they do make GF pizza, so ask. They also have GF pasta though I did not try it. My friends who had food off the regular menu said that the spaghetti and meatballs was really delicious. Nice atmosphere, especially the patio on a spring night.
