Top 35 Gluten-Free Italian Spots to Delight in Central Vancouver, Vancouver

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.

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.

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.

This pizza shop has gluten friendly/gluten free options. I was told they it’s not celiac safe options.

Polite service. Good selection, including gluten-free options. A good concept for a chain.

Bright and busy. Great food. Fantastic coffee. Street side tables perfect for people watching Gluten free waffles!

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

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!

Jo Munro

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.

Such a lovely atmosphere, great pasta and really pleasant and helpful staff. My wife is a coeliac so cannot eat normal pasta, so this was substituted with gluten free potato gnocchi (which she chose to have the Pomodoro sauce) which she loved. I had the tortellini gorgonzola that was superb. We finished off with flour free chocolate cake and gelato, only $10.95 each. Would highly recommend Zefferellis.

Ariana Arrue

We got gluten free w vegan mozzarella, and if you eat this way- you know the ingredients can be hit or Miss at Some places… THIS is your gluten free pizza place!! SO Delicious I would go back in a heartbeat.

Lily Kane

GF pasta available for all there sauces Was really yummy and very big portions staff was helpful and understood about gluten free Didn’t feel any issues after eating here

Aviva Mirsky

Went here for gluten free and it’s awesome!

Benjamin Boal

Do not come here if you have an allergy. I am not picky when it comes to food but I very clearly stated that I had a gluten allergy and within 5 minutes I was extremely sick. The waiter made it seem like it was my fault and denied any chance of cross contamination, even though I was actively getting sick. I was offered my plate for free afterwards which was kind, and I apologize to much of the wait staff that was friendly, it was a very busy night and I understand it was stressful but this was not an enjoyable dining experience nonetheless.

MAXIM PAK

An amazing Italian restaurant. They were also able to make gluten free pasta which tasted amazing and was a saving grace for us when we were on a diet.

Mike Gunn

Had a few meals here during our stay in Vancouver, breakfast, lunch and dinner. Overall food was excellent and had gluten-free options for my partner who is intolerant. Service was excellent everytime we ate there.

Kayla Clark

The food is damn good. Service excellent. Small chic place with simple curb appeal but phenomenal experience every time. Gluten free options. Great wine choices. Highly recommend.

Gemma Boothroyd

Loooove Di Beppe. It’s such a gem! Great vibe and atmosphere in here. It’s buzzy while also being a great place to work/write away. The server behind the counter was super warm and friendly too. Tons of gluten free and vegan pastry options — the lemon cake blew my mind 🤯 Also saw gluten free pasta on the menu, which we’ll have to come back in and try!

Delicious food (possibility to order a gluten-free pasta dish) and super welcoming and professional staff! I recommend 100%

Gabriela Menocal

I have to say, delicious Gluten free pasta, the waitress was so knowledgeable and suggested a dish that was perfect. Please be aware that only certain pasta can beade GF. My husband ordered Margherita pizza and he said it was really good

Olivia Sztanga

Food, service, ambiance were all amazing. Accommodated gluten free!

Daniela Ramo

We had breakfast and dinner at Capo over a long weekend. Breakfast is absolutely great, dinner very good and I was very happy the place offered gluten free options

Frances Malloch

Service received from Christina was excellent. A very friendly and helpful person who made sure my gluten free restrictions were not a problem.

One of the worst service encounters I have ever received at an upscale restaurant - will not ever visit again. Also, if you're gluten-free or vegan, skip this place altogether. In mid March, my family and I made a reservation to go here for my Father's special 60th birthday. We were all happy and looking forward to eating here - however we were not greeted with the same level of joy. Some members of our family have gluten free dietary restrictions, and our server did not accommodate to our questions about the menu and dietary restrictions at all - he just read out the menu like we were stupid. The server and kitchen did nothing to accomodate any gluten free requests. We were overall in a happy mood and tried to have nice light talk with our server and he was just plain obnoxious and had no intent to treat us with any happiness. He had an attitude with us right from the get go and completely ruined our mood for the evening. Throughout the night, our servers changed and there was a lapse in service as a result and they did not even let us know. The restaurant made no effort to cater to our special evening (even after we mentioned and notified the restaurant it was our fathers 60th). They offered us a "birthday platter" at the end which ended up being 4 very hard crackers that were not gluten-free. I advised the server of our dissatisfaction and they told me the manager would follow up with me after I provided my number. I have yet to receive that follow up. The food was nothing to rave about - there are definitely much better Italian restaurants with much better service, taste, and menu accommodation for similar prices around. Not worth the time and price.

We were able to get a table because of a last minute reservation. The service is good and they were helpful with the recommendations. The calamari was crispy and light, not doughy like some other establishments. I do wish they had a dip on the side to complement the flavours. I got the pappardelle as recommended, which was cooked perfectly, but I ultimately switched plates with my partner because the lamb was absolutely delicious, and he liked the pasta more so win-win! It was more on the rare side, which I loved. The potatoes were a nice touch. The only dish that disappointed was the lava cake, but I think that was because it was gluten-free so we expected something more traditional. Nevertheless it was not bad, just not something we would get again. When we were paying the bill, either the manager or the owner came by to say thank you for dining with them which was such a nice gesture! We would love to come back to try the other recommendations (uni pasta!).

Annalee Castillo

Server was very friendly, food was great. There are gluten free pasta options. Just came for the pasta entrees and they were great, good portions.

Great little combos. They have gluten free pasta too! I love the green salad and the shrimp linguini. They never skimp on the ingredients. Great service and always tasty! I also love the carbonara. Great portions and so filling! Update: used to order quite regularly but often ingredients were missing. Spaghetti puttanesca had no anchovies olives or Capers.. Spaghetti and meatballs both stated spicy which we quite enjoyed but was so spicy couldn't eat it and enjoy. Gluten free is no longer on the door dash menu. Last few times have been a miss. Maybe ingredient shortage or staffing! Friendly people on the phone!

Mike Beuvink

Last night in Vancouver, so booked a table at this small Italian restaurant and loved it. Food, wine and service were amazing. Loved the meatballs to start, my wife’s gluten free Alfredo was excellent and the tiramisu was to die for. We will definitely be next time we visit Vancouver

Steven Kang

We took couple of pizzas on our way home. The flavor was awesome and easily one of the best in town. Noticed that the crust was thin but remained crispy/chewy in a good way compared to typical Neapolitan pizza dough. Wondering if the dough has more gluten content?

We are in town due to medical appointments and stopped at C Prime for some appetizers and drinks. Based on recommendations from our incredible server Brody, we ordered oysters, ahi tuna tartar and a 8oz charred tenderloin and all of it was delicious. They also accommodated my gluten allergy very well. The food and drinks were top notch and our server made our experience even better with his friendly personality and great recommendations.

Kate Francois

Visited for a group dinner - we booked the private dining room and enjoyed the 5 course menu. Everything was incredible! Service was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable, space was perfect for our needs and the meal was delicious. They were also able to accommodate with a celiac friendly menu for me. Will definitely be back.
