Regular crust pizza is okay but not remarkable. Gluten-friendly crust pizza leaves to be desired. Home artisan potatoes are soft and don’t taste freshly made at all. Customer service is great; very thorough with modifications. We enjoyed their home made lemonade.

Food was… overall very salty. Not sure if this is how it is suppose to be but from antipasti to pastas, they were all honestly quite salty. Ingredients may be fresh which we would like to appreciate but they are just too salty to be enjoyed.
On the other hand, the service was great with solid gluten free options.
Let me start with “I don’t leave a review very often”.
We ate at Sopra Sotto two nights in a row it was that good. The first night we took a seat at the bar rather than wait for a table and the second night we asked to sit at the bar because of the wonderful service and interactions we had with Ruairi. Ruairi not only entertained us while we watched him making multiple cocktails but he also made great menu recommendations. The Gnocchi with Braised Beef, Rigatoni Fume Pasta and Lava Chocolate dessert were amazing.
This is the best restaurant we have been to in seven weeks of travelling.
The name of the restaurant is misleading because whilst the pizzas looked amazing it has quite an extensive variety of pasta, antipasti and desserts with a great wine list and cocktails.
I ordered gluten free pasta and desert to share with my husband and he couldn’t tell the difference….their gluten free options are that good.
Delicious food. Lots of gluten free options for those with celiac. We had an excellent gluten free crust that was better than most gluten-full crusts I've had. Didn't take a photo of the burrata but it was phenomenal (the missus kept explaining how much she loved the creamy cheese). Our server was friendly and helpful, even offered to take our pizza for a second go in the oven after we thought the crust was underdone. Will definitely be back!
This restaurant was absolutely fantastic! We had the soup and sandwich combo, and everything was incredibly fresh. There were plenty of accommodations for dietary needs, including a great selection of gluten-free options. The atmosphere was spotless, and the decor was superb. Highly recommend!
Server was wonderful - very knowledgeable about the menu and the wines. I got a gluten free pizza that was pretty terrible, probably the worst one I've gotten in a restaurant actually- the crust was thin and chewy, not in a good way; it was like a frozen pizza. The ceaser salad had polenta croutons that were good but there was only like 4 of them total. I felt safe as a celiac and there was lots of GF stuff on the menu to try, but definitely avoid the pizza. (If you want good GF pizza in the area go across the street to Per Se, it's the best I've ever had!) I would come back to try the other options though.
My wife ordered gluten free, she was served gluten. She is a celiac. Unacceptable. No apology from the server or manager. The item was also left on the bill. I honestly can’t believe this is how this restaurant operates.
Phenomenal pizza, very friendly service, gf has celiac allergy, restaurant takes proper care in minimizing cross contamination, the gluten-free crust was delicous, highly recommend. However, they are very busy. When booking a reservation, it is at least a week beforehand if you are trying to go on Friday/Saturday.
Il Covo is a new Victoria fave for me! The garden patio is beautiful and the whole place has a lovely atmosphere. Morgana, our server, was amazing and the food was excellent. Our group was looking for some vegan and gluten free options and she was so knowledgable and made great recommendations for everyone! We will be back for sure :)
Excellent service and accommodating to gluten-free allergies. Excellent food for my gluten free Large Hemingway Short Story with 6 prawns. I Highly recommend the duck wings!
This place is popular! Very crowded and loud inside. Enjoyed it even though it was packed. Live music.
There was the option of quieter outdoor seating with plenty of room while we were there.
We went for lunch. The pasta was delicious, and they have a nice variety and gluten-free options.
The mussels and chorizo were excellent, very recommended! Friendly staff and fresh and yummy food. Will repeat for sure.
Andy delivers the BEST Gluten Free Pizza in the World. I have had it many times the he delivery's to the Food Bank and at home. Just tried the Chicken Bacon Ranch and Woooooo. It was amazing.
Thanks very much Andy. And by the way your Staff is amazing!!
Impromptu Valentine's Day dinner
They fit us in....I gave celiac disease and ordered the chicken primevera with gluten free fusilli
PHENOMENAL
100% recommend
Service was superb
Thank you Pasta Polo
An amazing restaurant ! The service is always amazing and dietary requirements are considered. I’m a 10 year vegan with a sensitivity to gluten and the servers are able to provide ingredient information without losing any of the flavour in the final dish. Menu items are made fresh and it is very clear a lot of love goes into every plate. A MUST try if you’re in the area !!
Wonderful Italian restaurant. If your in Victoria, make a reservation. Delightful decor, kind of hidden off an alley. We were there for our anniversary and our waiter was wonderful and professional, excellent service, (I think his name was Carson). They don't have gluten-free pasta, but will substitute with risotto.
Had the best pizza of my life. The Prosciutto and Argula pizza. They Catered to my dietary needs for I'm Celiac and require and Epi Pen. My Entire family enjoyed the food and we will be going back . Thank you
While it was great they had gluten free waffle options, you only get 1 Belgium waffle and if you’re hungry, it won’t be enough. An order of thick cut bacon on the side helped fill the void. Oat milk for our coffees was nice, and the coffee cup sizes are kind of small given the $5 charge. Overall, it was decent - it was a breakfast start to a busy morning - but we’d likely go elsewhere for more value and larger portions.
Great gluten free options, they even brought gluten free garlic bread before the meal. I don’t believe I’ve ever been accommodated like this before. Great experience.
The pizza is awesome, and really great late night. Gluten free is good too with a tasty crust! Cross contamination can be a thing if you're celiac so heads up. Its so good that its often very busy which means orders can take a while and we now go and pickup because delivery was always taking too long. We still keep going back though cuz its 👌 super tasty.
Food was okay. As a big restaurant chain, I guess I can't complain. But it certainly nothing special. The location is very convenient. While there are gluten free options, there are very limited dairy free options. One thing I would love to point out though, is our server was fantastic he had a great sense of humor was very helpful and was a tentative to our table.
Best gluten free pasta ever!! Service was incredible, we came in with a party of 30+ and the food was quick, hot, and delicious. The staff was very kind and had an amazing system.
Highly recommend!
Beautiful antique ambiance and delicious food - specially the spaghetti and tiramisu.
They also have vegetarian and gluten free options.
Would definitely recommend.
A must visit restaurant in Whistler Village
Great place for those with celiac disease or a gluten allergy. I received GF bread and many of the dishes are or can be made GF. They have GF appetizers, pasta, risotto and GF dessert. The service was great.
Phenomenal Italian food. The seafood risotto is out of this world. Add to the fact this restaurant has many gluten free options this is truly a hidden gem of Vancouver
Excellent pizza: the gluten free crust is very tasty. Lots of toppings: great pizza sauce. Friendly staff. . Very popular so there is a risk you will be waiting a while for your pizza depending what time you place your order. Can't dine in- takeout/delivery only.
The margarita pizza was so delicious. The chicken pesto pizza was okay, a little dense and gave me a stomach ache.
Some of the most delicious gluten free pizzas I’ve ever had.
Fabulousl gluten free options! Great location and exceptional food. High quality ingredients. All the food coming from the kitchen looked outstanding! Can't wait to return! Check out the cool street view!
If you have allergies or restrictions these guys take it seriously. I got the vegan mozzarella as gluten free and they made it out the back to be safe which I really appreciated. Tasted good for a gluten free pizza.
No gluten free crust till early September but doesn’t say that anywhere on the website.
EDIT
The owner was very quick to respond and apologized for the situation and said they would be posting about it moving forward so others will know.
Very good customer service and I look forward to coming back once the gluten free crust is available once again.
Went for pizza on Father's day and had a great experience. We all over ate because the pizza was so tasty! Our server Ava was fantastic and always made sure our drinks were taken care of and I had a beer. Vince the manager even checked in with us. Highly recommend! Looking forward to my left overs tomorrow!! On a side note my son is gluten and dairy free and he said it was his favourite tasting pizza!
