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 š
GF pizza was SO good, you have the choice of any of their regular pizzas (thereās like 50 to choose from). My partner enjoyed the regular crust :) and the staff were really nice!
Delicious gf bases! Was super yummy and my gf had a great normal pizza as well. They knew about gf but might have some cross contamination but unsure. Overall one of the better gf pizzas Iāve had!!
Two evenings in a row. No problem with a baby. Gluten-free was no problem. The servers were very nice and friendly even though the place was completely packed. World-class pizza š
Arrived in Sarzana for a gluten free demonstration I stopped for lunch at this tavern
I can only compliment the dishes consumed with praise for the desserts
Superlative gluten free š

Free Gluten
For celiacs, once informed by the restaurant staff, you will be guided, we recommend the homemade pasta made by the chef, everything was delicious, continue like this and develop your offer with Freeglutine by indicating it on the menu, the dishes with the small Freeglutine symbols , as found throughout Europe! Friendly and family atmosphere but a little noisy; long waiting times to eat when the restaurant is full, if you get a starter, count 2 hours for a meal.
Great gluten free spot if you are willing to wait. I had the gnocchi and chocolate cake. There is no place to really sit but there is a picnic area at the top of the hill with a great view to enjoy your meal.
Informal place with friendly and welcoming staff. The pizzas have a crunchy and very thin crust so the judgment is up to personal taste. I had a calzone and it was very good. Much attention to dietary issues with ingredients also without lactose or gluten. Prices appropriate to the type of venue.
Very tasty food. We ordered gluten-free pasta and were immediately delivered gluten-free bread (the waiter thinks along with it š). For the lamb dish, sauce was added at the place. Extra small bowl for the olive oil with the bread. Very stylish, but also correspondingly expensive. But it was worth it!
Dear Valentina, after months glued to the phone screen with my mouth watering looking at the photos of your delicacies, I have decided to give myself a gift and take a train from Pontedera to come and taste something from your bakery in Sarzana.
And so here I am early in the morning inside your special place; obviously there was the counter full of wonders and your lively and very pleasant presence. I admit that I didn't say much because I was excited, but I bought many things to try: a slice of savory cake, some scones, a piece of vanilla and berry cake and a lemon and blueberry muffin.
Everything was exceptional!
The scones almost moved me, the flavor was almost identical to the ones I bought in an old bakery in my town when I was little, I ate them with a dear friend of mine outside of school and it really felt like I was going back there.
Never eaten so good in eleven years of celiac disease!
Not to mention the desserts: tasty, soft, abundant. No disappointments.
The prices are absolutely honest and consistent with the quality of the food, I really hope to be able to return soon.
Amazing pizza! Perfect dough, high quality ingredients and a beautiful location.
Additionally, they offer gluten free pizza, which was outstanding. Almost as fluffy as the normal dough.
Highly recommended!
Small spot with good gluten free pasta. Loved their fantasia al mare- perfect for two people to share. They had a packaged sliced bread option which was nice to dip in the oil.
I went to this Focacceria with some friends and we left really satisfied. Very beautiful and refined location. Very welcoming and pleasant environment and staff. Varied and satisfying fixed menus. Honest prices for the quality and quantity. Very attentive to gluten-free (possibility of eating a delicious focaccia made by them and amazing desserts). What can I say, a place to which we will certainly more than willingly return.
Nice, characteristic restaurant right on the gulf. You can enjoy a beautiful view. The environment is elegant and refined. Excellent wine cellar. The fish dishes are excellent to the palate and well cared for (personally I did not like the presence of the intestine in the grilled prawns). The desserts are very pleasant and original. The prices are in line with the location and the product offered. On request it is possible to have gluten-free dishes and focaccia.
We arrived without a reservation during the Champions League final, which was broadcast, and they found us a table without any problems. They also have a gluten-free sandwich, which was really big and very good. When the fries, which were an extra, didn't arrive, I pointed it out and in addition to removing them from the order, they offered me a Coke to make up for it.
Really nice and kind staff. Recommended!
In the center of Sarzana there is this excellent pizzeria which offers the possibility of a gluten free menu. Having tasted both the gluten-free and traditional pizzas, I can say that everything was of a high standard in terms of abundance and flavours.
The environment is informal, the staff are courteous, attentive and quick and know how to recommend the various proposals to satisfy the customer.
Price in line with the gluten free proposals but general value a step above.
Last night I had the pleasure of dining in this restaurant and I must say that the experience was truly excellent! I tasted two pizzas and a pasta dish, all strictly gluten-free, and I was surprised by the quality and flavor. The pizza dough was perfect, well-leavened and fragrant, while the dough had an excellent consistency, just like a traditional version.
The bill was absolutely in line with the market and with the rest of Italy, without excessive surprises. A truly excellent value for money.
Super recommended for those looking for a place with gluten-free options without sacrificing taste. I will definitely be back as soon as possible! ššš
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.
Nice atmosphere in what seems to be an old cellar, good food but..... it ends here......oh yes. Because even the so-called modus operandi is fundamental.....here the fundamental thing was the rudeness....my wife is celiac and vegetarian and already when we booked at lunch time for dinner we were not even asked for a name for our reservation.....anyway so far everything was fine. We arrived at 7:30 pm, they made us sit down, brought us the menu and I could already see the waiters quite agitated, all kind except ours, who despite seeming nice and kind, ruined everything. Let's leave aside the fact that some dishes on the menu were not available but there were others, as I said they were good (cod instead of grilled tuna, with some bones but whatever), good pici cacio e pepe....but!!!
For my wife, the kind waiter had decided his dinner himself (a selection of cheeses and a baked vegetable ratatouille) without the possibility of 3 clear seconds to choose and at my wife's first question about the possibility of being able to have a smoked scamorza, HE HUNTED IMPATIENTLY IN FRONT OF US, unfortunately we were not very helpful, given that we allowed ourselves to ask a question in 10 seconds of ordering (because yes, she was clearly in a hurry).
Result: it was supposed to be a relaxing evening, I ate nervously and my wife uncomfortable (celiac disease is a disease, not a pain in the ass for the restaurateur who is not used to stress), if I could I would have left before eating but I had already ordered, my fault for not being ready.
Oh, last but not least, the ratatouille never even arrived, they forgot about it so we told them to forget it and left.
Conclusion, good food and nice environment, but the service of that gentleman there cancelled everything and with interest.
49 EUROS TO HEAR HIM PUFFING AND TO MAKE MY WIFE EAT 5 CHEESES AND LEAVE HUNGRY.
RUDENESS HAS NO CURE AND SHOULD NOT BE TOLERATED.
PS.: it's fine if you are happy for them to decide the dishes for you and if you don't have any intolerances.
The view was nice. Service was bad, we had to ask multiple times for a few things we ordered. Our food was not great, our least favorite meal while in Italy. They do offer gluten free pasta.
The restaurant is set in a steep hillside and is not recommended for guests with limited mobility.
Went here for breakfast everyday on my trip to Corniglia. Fantastic gluten free options (personal favourite being the stuffed focaccia with pesto and vegetables). My friend (not gluten free) enjoyed the bruschetta. Staff were lovely and service overall was fantastic. Would highly recommend!

We had a great experience here after looking for a long time for gluten free food. The gluten free pasta was delicious and they even brought out gluten free bread before the main dishes. A little overpriced for the portions but was worth it to finally find some gluten free pasta.
11/10 recommend! The food is delicious and the staff are extremely kind and incredibly helpful. When I asked about gluten free options they were super accommodating, helped me through the menu, and went out of their way to make sure I could have the pizza I wanted. The location is just a few minutes from the train station, and so much quieter than the other side. Great views, great food, wonderful staff.

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...
The restaurant was very welcoming and friendly, the Christmas lunch was excellent, all fish from the starter to the first and second courses. And there was also lunch for Celiacs and very excellent ššš
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.
A must-visit for gluten-free travelers! Not only are the pizzas top-notch, but the pizza chef is super friendly and the servers go above and beyond to provide top-notch service!
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 ā thank you again for that and for the outstanding pizzas š
Gorgeous terrace overlooking the sea, tasty food w good portions, had lovely gluten free options which made a huge difference for me as a celiac haver lol. Definitely get reservations as they are quite popular and seating fills up fast before diner time.
for my birthday, given the presence of some celiacs, I found this ice cream shop by chance that does everything gluten-free and I wanted to try it, I had an ice cream cake made which received compliments from everyone... today I went there again to try a classic ice cream and once again it was delicious... I also compliment the super friendly and helpful staff... highly recommended to everyone, celiacs or not.
The best ice cream we ate in Levanto. In addition, they are the only ones (that I have seen) who offer gluten-free cones.
A big favorite with a very nice lemon basil and extra divine chocolate scent.
we ordered pizza for delivery and it arrived almost an hour late after being told it would only be 10 minutes late. as a result, our plans for the evening were ruined. also, the gluten free pizza was truly horrible, as the toppings were almost completely out of the pizza and you needed a spoon to eat it.
This review is for gluten free eaters only: be warned a few reviews here mentioned plentiful options a few months back and we checked previously to arriving and were told "yes", but on arrival the waitress informed us there are no pasta or pizza gluten free options. There was essentially one salad and 2x seafood which we donāt eat. We left and went to Trattoria Billy which had GF pasta and was so great. Iām sure this place is good for regular eaters.
