First time visiting Il Buco this week and we were there at lunch time. The lunch menu had a set 3 course meal from which you could pick soup or salad, an entree, and a dessert of ice cream or tiramisu (extra $3), or you could order from the a la carte menu. We chose the set meal, and also had a glass of wine each. I need gluten free so I ordered a goat cheese salad which was delicious, and the pork scallopini, with no breading on the pork, and gluten free pasta. The entree was really good, but I did find the portion a little small. My husband had soup of the day, which was cream of mushroom, the same entree as me but with regular pasta, and the tiramisu for dessert which he said was the best he's ever had. Overall it was a really nice lunch and wine, but was quite expensive so we would probably only go again for a special occasion. Service was great and the server was very helpful in explaining what gluten free options I could have. You have to pay to park in the municipal lot behind the restaurant, but you can access the restaurant via a back door, so it's very convenient.

This was a birthday dinner for my seven year old grandson. We are visiting for the March break in the Barrie area and were looking for something specific for him. Called ahead and inquired as to whether or not they had gluten-free pasta. It had to be egg free as he is anaphylactic to eggs. They said it was so we selected this location. We will come back here and we highly recommend it. Our compliments to the chef and to the attentiveness of our waitress.

Best panzoratti, the best I have ever eaten by far. Golden brown and baked to perfection. Soft, and airy dough with a great amount of fresh toppings, and the sauce was fantastic. We had pepperoni, mushrooms & cheese. *I highly recommend* *Gluten-free option available at this location.

We travel a lot in southern Ontario and for quite some time whenever we are near Barrie around dinner time we have been going to this location because it has always been one of the best Pizza Nova restaurants. Today, however, we stopped here to get food with disasterous results. My wife does not choose to eat gluten free but has to because of her allergy to gluten. We have always had a good experience with the gluten free crust here until now. The crusts are pre-made so there should be no chance of major contamination but, for some reason, today the bottom of the pizza was covered with flour. Since these are pre-made our suspicion is that this is wheat flour. My wife didn't notice at first and started eating the pizza but then commented on the flour. Since we got home this evening my wife has been sick beyond belief. Based on past experience this is gluten poisoning without a doubt. Now it will be around 3 days of her struggling to even get out of bed, except to rush to the bathroom. I'm not sure if this has happened because the restaurant was really busy when we went there but people serving specialty items, like gluten free crust, have to be more aware of the ramifications of contamination. There are people with even more severe allergies to gluten that could end up in the hospital over something like this happening to them. I am hoping this doesn't happen to anyone else. I assume, that like me, others spend a lot of time and effort making sure that family members with gluten issues aren't exposed to it in any shape or form. Every grocery item is checked and any food eaten out of the home is researched prior to purchasing to make sure our family member is safe. It can be a challenge every day but even moreso when dining out. Generally, when we find something acceptable, like the Pizza Nova gluten-free crust, that also tastes good, we don't stray too far when dining out. When we have an experience like today it really discourages eating anything away from home because it seems that others don't understand the importance of the necessity of minimizing the gluten contamination in their food preparation. As with most places, we understand that their food is considered more gluten-wise rather than gluten-free but we're generally okay with that. The issue today was definitely major contamination way beyond gluten-wise. Caveat emptor to anyone with gluten issues and are thinking about dining out.
