Spectacular gluten-free place.
The entire menu is designed for celiacs, with variety and good prices.
Beautiful, large space.
Very friendly waiters.
Incredible pizza and pasta.
Thank you so much for the service 😊
After a few days that we were already in the center of La Spezia, we tried this wonderful restaurant, what can I say, we had such a good time that for the remaining days we always went there for dinner.
Kind, friendly and prepared staff also for gluten-free.
Excellent service, minimal waiting times and super quality of products.
The owner, Mrs. Patrizia is a very nice and helpful person.
In conclusion, a highly recommended restaurant, the best for us in La Spezia!!!
We hope to return soon!
Thank you!!!
Perfect vegan restaurant, most dishes also available in gluten-free versions. Very friendly service and attractive interior design. And good music selection. Pleasantly manageable menu with a good price/performance ratio. So good overall that we went there twice in a row.
Farinata with various flavors all delicious, exceptional the one with onions.
Good quality pizzas, with gluten-free option also of good quality, something usually not easy to find.

I have been to Virata several times in person and just as many times I have ordered home delivery… the gluten-free pizza is always excellent, but last night you really outdid yourselves!! It was delicious, excellent ingredients, super dough, thank you!
Went last night, discreet Catalan, everything else is not worth the expense, improvised service, wait between courses for over 30 minutes, even though we were advised at the time of booking of the presence of a celiac person, we were not provided with any suitable product, for example bread or breadsticks.... I don't think I'll go back...
Very good pizzas and friendly service, and especially a very nice pizza chef. They also offer whole-wheat and gluten-free pizzas.
The pizza chef came especially to get our kids so they could hold their pizzas with the long pizza peel and we could take a photo. I've never experienced anything like that before – thank you again for that and for the outstanding pizzas 🍕
Wide choice both for breakfast, lunch and also for the aperitif. Lots of gluten free and vegan choices, both sweet and savory, much appreciated.
Competent and friendly staff, tidy, clean and attentive to customers.
Went here twice on the trip because it was sooo good. The mixed seafood platter is amazing with every item crispy, not greasy at all. Gluten free options available for the breading also that was delicious. Staff is friendly and welcoming. I’d highly recommend to anyone in La spezia
It would deserve zero stars for me. It's shocking that in 2025, in a tourist city like La Spezia, the level of gluten-free pizzas is still so low.
I order the pizza through just eat and it arrives in the conditions you see in the photo.
Rubbery dough, poor quality ingredients and cold and undercooked chips.
With €8.50 in Naples I eat a Dio of pizza, here this is crap.
This has been the best meal in Italy so far (and the priciest!). They are very aware of how to accommodate gluten allergies. Today's food porn: Osteria della Corte in La Spezia. Don't show up without a reservation, even for lunch. The servers are very kind, have the right sense of humor, and navigated us through our choices. It was so good, in fact, I need to share the entire list of our meal:
Purple prawn carpaccio with focaccia crumble and tomato (so good).
Spaghetti with oil, garlic, chili, prawns and burrata
Organic Fassona fillet with “caffè de Paris” sauce (yellow curry?!)
Szechuan Pepper Ice Cream with Coconut Bonbon and Liquid Liquorice
Bronte pistachio semifreddo with lavender sauce
“Custard” with almonds biscuits(amaretti), rum and chocolate
Also, this is the only place that actually offered us gf bread. It was just so nice to not have some generic, dry, bad tasting pre-manufactured effort. They confessed they didn't bake it themselves, but it was so good we asked for another basket which they obliged.
All this came to 155€, so that's pretty pricey, but we'd do it again. And again and again. I'd even say go out of your way to eat here even if La Spezia is not in your plan.
Very creamy ice creams with a lot of flavor, super delicious! One of the best I've ever tried. I ordered pistachio and nocciola, I loved them! They have the option of gluten-free cones. Price for two or three flavors about €4.
Definitely the best pizza you can eat in La Spezia.
Excellent ingredients, generally associated with the tradition of his hometown.
Prices are on average consistent, apart from the increase on home delivery platforms.
The cooking of the two Napolis I ordered was discreet, with some burns and some slightly undercooked spots, for the rest I found a light, tasty dough with a well-developed gluten network; I repeat, it is impossible to find a product like this in this city, which is why it deserves 4 stars, probably in an area where the craftsmanship regarding this product was more common, I would have given it 3.
Overall it was a good lunch.
We happened upon it by chance, we tasted the farinata with pesto, stracchino and gorgonzola: sublime! In the end there was only castagnaccio as a gluten-free dessert. I won't deny that I was a little doubtful, but instead we had an excellent experience, a simple dessert, but the taste was amazing! To be repeated!!! Of course we found food for celiacs :-}
I stumbled upon this place while I was walking the streets to find gluten free options for lunch, and I’m glad I did! I had the gluten free flatbread and it was super fresh and delicious. As a solo female traveller I found the staff to be incredibly welcoming and hospitable, was able to recharge with a delicious lunch in a homely environment.
I highly recommend it. Very good pasta. They made us a gluten-free option even without having it on the menu. Also, I couldn't eat much of my pasta dish because the sauce was too spicy (I didn't know it) and they didn't charge us for it. The staff was very friendly and professional.
Nice place, big inside and with some tables outside on the street. It is mainly a pizzeria but there are also other types of dishes. Excellent gluten-free pizza! But be prepared to wait a long time and be abandoned
Celiac friendly
