Gluten free pizza very good, maybe a little too burned on the sides, but overall very tasty. It was great to try some pizza in Bruxelles at the end of our trip 🍕
Amazing service and great menu!! We had just finished a long car journey and we were starving. We just got there before they closed for lunch service and they still made us 5 pizzas and a gluten free one. Would highly recommend!!
I have known this restaurant for a very long time but this time I was really disappointed to the point of not really coming back. ☹️
I didn't know that the pattern had changed, so to my surprise the menu had also changed. There used to be a lot more gluten-free options. It’s already difficult in Belgium not to find places and for the few places we have, they take away most of the options…
As for dinner... we ordered a carpaccio as a starter... when it was served at the table, I was surprised because the carpaccio was hard, like frozen... I understand that it must be fresh, I have eaten it in many Italian restaurants all over the world but never has it been frozen... we didn't even appreciate this incredible taste of fine and delicious beef like Carpaccio is!
Then I told this to the waiter and he told me it was normal because it has to be fresh… but no, it's not the same thing fresh=frozen.
We also had a pizza that had excess oil… it’s a real shame ☹️ and the risotto was average! The portion was perfect but it lacked real risotto.
Honestly, it was one of my favorite restaurants and now I'm very disappointed...
Very good white pizzas. And they also offer gluten-free pizzas (the dough is crispier but still good for gluten-free). It rarely happens that Deliveroo forgets the gluten-free option but they quickly recover so no worries.

Excellent evening. Beautiful table of 8 placed along the window. Beautiful decor and atmosphere. We were served by a very competent young waitress who knew the menu perfectly. Excellent pizzas with delicious dough. Offers gluten-free pizzas! And a gourmet coffee.
Superb Italian restaurant. From the decoration to the meal to the professionalism of the waitresses, I have nothing to complain about. Plus, they offer gluten-free alternatives. My celiac partner was able to enjoy a pizza from the menu and didn't get sick!
We will come back
The food was delicious and the owners are very friendly. There is a pleasant atmosphere. They also kindly help you with gluten-free options. Recommended!
While it says that there is gluten free options online, there is nothing offered, apart from a salad that is tomato and mozzarella for 18 euros. The service is terrible and very slow. Overall absolutely horrible experience
We ate delicious pizzas from Il Venti. We had 8 pizzas, 1 of which was gluten free for the whole family. We thought the pizza carpaccio and pollo was the tastiest. We had to wait a little longer but it was worth it.
Did it live up to the hype - almost!
I loved the friendliness of the staff and the menu coverage (particularly for vegetarians and gluten-free folks). The wine list is just as exhaustive and the place echoes everything Italian. Portion sizes are great for the price you pay.
My gnocchi was delicious but felt a bit dry after a couple of spoons. For desert, we had the caramel pannacota which was delectable but the tiramisu felt a tad disappointing on the flavour for me.
Very cozy restaurant with authentic Italian pizzas. Also a very extensive choice without gluten: pizza, pasta or other dishes. The chef is very knowledgeable about celiac disease.
Superb gluten-free pasta! Very friendly managers who are very knowledgeable about allergies: it's really very pleasant when you experience an obstacle course every time you want to have lunch outside your home. Address to recommend!
Delicious food and gluten free! Gluten free pasta so you can choose anything (besides the lasagna). The service was great! Cozy place to have a bite to eat, definitely recommended!

Good quality Italian cuisine for being abroad. The pasta doesn't seem to be bad either, even the gluten-free one. Average price in the area around 35 euros for a dish and drinks.
I was hier with my daughter😍
Food was very very nice 🤩😋, we had gluten free spaghetti with meatballs and melanzane alla parmigiana… really really yammyyyyy …. BUT!!! What a disrespectful experience!!!
When we ask for gluten free pasta with meatballs, the men that was serving us get mad and say was not possible cause the meatballs are with gluten.I did explain that that was ok ,we are not allergic and that we can have gluten in small portions, cause we are not allergic but intolerant … he kept on raising his voice like I was a small child that don’t understand that the meatballs are with gluten. After keeping explaining him that I’m not going to die from it 🫣🤣 …with much irritation he got the order .
After all of that the hole time he keept walking up and down our table looking kind of strange to us … waiting maybe till we was getting sick or something 🤪, looking angry or irritated … was very very disturbing …
in the end after I payed he ask with a nasty smile (like still hoping that we was not good from the food ):” is your stomach still okay ? “ … I never had such a disturbing/ feeling watch experience .
For the food I would definitely comeback .
Restaurant looks also great
Very good food, very kind staff and very nice wines (even the budget friendly ones). Great pittoresk atmosphere inside and on the terrace. There are heat lamps and blankets outside as well. Amazing desserts and also gluten free pasta!
Excellent place. They did their utmost to accommodate our party even preparing a delicious gluten free and vegan 5 course meal for a number of our party.
Very friendly staff! Nice food!! We were 10 guests and 2 were gluten intolerant!! Totally understanding staff! They had glutenfree pasta!! We were superhappy! Had a really nice lunch!! Can Absolutly recommend this restaurant!! 👍
The best pasta bar in Ghent! Very friendly owner with super fast service. Fresh pasta and fresh sauce for a small price! There is also something for everyone (vegetarians, gluten-free,...)
I am a "special food" lover and I always like trying new places, Recines was a pleasent surprise. The owner has modified my menu' based on my allergies to lactose and gluten, which allowed me to enjoy fully the dinner with my friends (please note that we informed them a few days in advance to make sure they could actually modify the service).
The menu' proposed was sophisticated because of the careful selection of the ingredients, which can justify the price. I cannot comment the wine because I did not do the pairing, but my friends were satisfied after tasting some of them.
The place is cozy and confortable, music and light very well adjusted. I have no picture to show because I prefer enjoying what I am seeing and eating :)
Regarding the price, If you do not know the origin of the ingredients, it might feel above the avarage, but it is worth it. Anyways, thank you :) (the trofie were absolutely delicius!)
Original flavors, ideal portion, very attentive to gluten-free person, no question is too much, dessert to lick your fingers and thumbs. Very friendly staff. Definitely recommended!
Super tasty veggie pizza! The gluten-free pizza is also very worthwhile. Every pizza can be obtained gluten-free. We would like to come from Ghent for this. Highly recommended.
