A restaurant with excellent food and many gluten-free options. The family atmosphere is very pleasant. We ordered Pasta alla Norma and gluten-free Tortellini.
A superb experience at this restaurant, which offers gluten-free options with Sicilian specialties, from starters to desserts.
Very good, friendly staff, and very reasonable prices.
I recommend it.
Even though we have been customers for a long time, last night apart from the appetizers, I ate a horrible gluten-free pizza, the edge was very high, about 4 cm, the raw food was inedible and the pizza inside was also raw and tiny in size. I complained about everything, and the answer was we will tell the pizza chef to lower the edge. In addition, for each course they put a supplement of 2 euros for gluten-free, not only for the pizza which I can understand, but for each appetizer including the sorbet a celiac pays 2 euros more per course, shameful.
My friend and I ate here. Mine was gluten free, Incredible! I couldn’t tell and I also couldn’t finish it. I’ve never not been able to finish my pizza. So tasty! Would recommend
Always a great experience. I always find competence and efficiency, they are very kind and put you at ease. Then the pizzas are spectacular, I also eat gluten free and for me one of the best pizzas in Palermo. Good guys keep it up 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
One of the best gluten-free pizzas we've ever eaten. Highly recommended for people with celiac disease. There's no extra charge for the gluten-free pizza. They use a separate oven. The owner was also very nice. Highly recommended. We'd be happy to come back.
Delicious food and excellent variety of food. Including desserts.
But the staff isn’t trained!! The waiter brought my gluten free pizza in the same hand with gluten pizza directly touching it!!

Great attention to gluten-free, freshly cooked food. We ate on site at the tables on the main street, a pleasant and relaxed environment. Highly recommended. The potatoes are delicious.
The staff, the atmosphere, and the food were excellent.
There were nine of us and only my daughter has Celiac. They took exceptional care of her. Everything she had was delicious and carefully prepared. They even provided her with information on near by bakeries that were 100% gluten free. Our waiter said his wife is celiac also, so he was incredibly knowledgeable.
I'm sorry but we didn't like the pizza. We came for a person who is celiac, but basically, it seemed to us that all the pizzas were made for celiacs. The dough is biscuity. There are people who like pizza like that but we don't. The environment is small... normal prices.
Gluten-free, no problem!
I had spaghetti with lobster from the daily special. It was super delicious and very plentiful. There was a whole lobster on the plate, with plenty of boned pieces in the creamy sauce. Luckily, I didn't have an appetizer, so it's a shame I missed the desserts. A sommelier comes to the table and annoys me with the wine selection. For this quality, the price is more than justified. Highly recommended; please make a reservation in advance.

It was delicious, and we had a fantastic gluten-free pizza...I thought the small surcharge for gluten-free was a shame; we weren't aware of that. Since we have to follow a gluten-free diet, we're glad we had such a great selection here, but it would have been nice not to have to pay extra because we have a medical condition ;)
The staff was very friendly, and the service was super quick. We highly recommend this restaurant for people with celiac disease!
An experience that goes beyond a simple meal, each dish tells a story with authentic flavors and attention to detail that conquers from the first taste, everything is really excellent, high quality food, the welcome was amazing, very attentive to our needs, the gluten-free pizza is crumbly and delicious, never eaten like this, everything is truly wonderful, I recommend it to everyone to try it
Small but nice place, welcoming atmosphere, we took 1 gluten-free appetizer, 1 gluten-free pizza with tomato, buffalo mozzarella, bacon and parmesan flakes, and 2 with gluten, 1 Zarina and 1 Margherita. As far as I'm concerned it was the best gluten-free pizza I've ever tasted before... absolutely satisfied
Very nice place with outdoor tables and indoor area, we were there for a pizza to celebrate a colleague's retirement. I found a good choice in the proposals also original, various types of dough also for celiacs. The service was impeccable, little waiting good coordination in the release of the dishes. The place is very nice and the food is good, I recommend it
I got a gluten-free and dairy-free cake due to an intolerance not only to gluten but also to casein. A pleasant, tasty and wonderful experience because I would have challenged anyone to notice the difference from a normal cake. Taste experience far beyond the wildest expectations. A balance of flavors and goodness appreciated by all. My compliments to the creator of this wonderful dessert. Fabio Leo
Excellent quality pizza with various types of dough, including gluten free. Availability of seats both indoors and in the dehor in front of the restaurant, capable of accommodating large groups (we were 22..!). To try again to taste another dough among all those available 👍
An experience to remember – thank you “La Dolce Vita in Giardino”!
We had dinner at this wonderful restaurant and we can only express our gratitude for the care and love with which we were welcomed. We were a “beautifully complicated” table, composed of 12 people, including one with gluten intolerance — but our every need was listened to, understood and satisfied with extraordinary kindness and professionalism.
The staff literally pampered us from start to finish, going beyond all expectations. Always smiling, proactive, available, very prepared. The service was punctual, impeccable, with a genuine friendliness that made us feel truly at home.
The food? Excellent, both in quality and presentation. The location is splendid, with attention to detail, and you can breathe an atmosphere of passion and dedication everywhere. The owner was also present, precise, attentive: a clear sign of a management that deeply loves what it does.
“La Dolce Vita in Giardino” is much more than a restaurant: it is a place where you are welcomed with the heart. We will definitely be back. Congratulations to all the staff!
Very atmospheric and pleasant place, in the very center. The choice fell on it, because of the presence of a choice of allergens (decaf coffee, gluten-free, etc.). Everything was very tasty, clean and pleasant service. The place is not cheap, breakfast for two was offended by 73 euros (rather it is our fault, since we wanted to try everything, tomorrow we will definitely come back and I think we will cut the bill in half, since we will already clearly know what we want). I highly recommend
Disappointing experience overall
We walked around 40 minutes to get to the restaurant, so we were really looking forward to it – but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. The staff were quite rude, and when we sat under a fan (it was hot), we were asked to move.
The food was just okay. The carbonara was extremely salty, and the pistachio pasta with burrata came with a tiny burrata – not what you'd expect for the price. Also worth noting: there’s an extra €2 charge per dish for gluten-free options, and they don’t serve café americanos.
Wouldn’t go out of my way for it again.
We remembered the really good gluten-free and traditional pizzas, but tonight's disappointment was truly unique. We waited more than 40 minutes to take away pizzas with rubbery dough and poor seasoning both in quantitative and qualitative terms. See photo
What a huge disappointment.
The two of us got two pizzas.
A gluten-free Romana and a margherita with mushrooms whose cooking is rather doubtful as they looked like they were defecated by a seagull.
In any case, we go beyond sight and eat them, terrible, very poor quality of both the dough and the ingredients (as simple as they were).
But that's not all, we also had considerable difficulty digesting the pizzas, which literally remained on our stomachs.
Final gem, two pizzas (one Roman and one Margherita with mushrooms) two cokes and a bottle of water €43.50, a robbery!!!
If they had been good I wouldn't have said anything, but two crazy things and excessive prices for the poor quality (saying quality is a compliment)!
Huge disappointment!!
Never never again
There was (prepackaged) but delicious gluten-free bread. I was also offered other options with gluten-free pasta.
Service was fast, and the food was delicious. Even though it was certainly a tourist magnet, I still enjoyed it.
Verdechiaro is a true gem! Every visit is met with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a sense of care that makes dining here a pleasure. The chef’s creativity shines through in every dish beautifully presented, full of flavor, and thoughtfully prepared.
We especially appreciate the wide range of gluten-free and vegan options, all part of their commitment to healthy, nourishing cuisine. It’s clear that quality and inclusivity are at the heart of everything they do, including beautifully designed spaces featuring light green (verde chiaro) items.
Thank you to the whole team at Verdechiaro for consistently delivering such a delightful experience!

It's not just that the food is really good. And not even attention to dietary needs (gluten-free, contamination-free, lactose-free, etc.). Let's not even talk about the speed. Let's also talk about the staff who are friendly and knowledgeable. We will definitely return also because our celiac princess of almost 4 years really enjoyed it.
The terrace is a fantastic place. The staff was immediately friendly and accommodating. The food at this restaurant is enhanced in preparation and presentation, with special attention to gluten free. We will be returning Sunday evening for our last night here in Sicily and to enjoy their fantastic sushi.

Highly recommended for those with celiac disease. They cook everything gluten-free. The food is delicious and the welcome excellent. They are also very quick in service.
Friendly atmosphere, partially open kitchen. An excellent place for breakfast/snacks and lunches also for veg and celiacs. Very important is that the raw materials are fresh. I will return
Excellent gluten-free food with a wide choice, the tuna meatball and the artichoke caponata are fantastic but also everything else. Friendly and welcoming service. Highly recommended.
Amazing food, fair prices, cute interior, and they had gluten free options for every food! Looks like the locals come here too, it is always a good sign 😊
YUMMY GLUTEN-FREE SANDWICH!!!
I only discovered celiac disease a few years ago, and I always cry because I never find anything as good as street food UNTIL THIS. the menu is literally the entire menu which can also be gluten free!!! dream. huge and delicious burger!! great price for this goodness. only 7.50 sandwich + chips 😍😍😍😭😭😭 a dream. plus I can't digest certain types of heavier foods well like these hamburger sandwiches but I had a great time!!! I went there to get takeout because the place was noisy for me; but the inside is too beautiful, all full of the world of comics, games and anime. and the owner was very kind and good with the gluten thing, he was not unprepared and understood very well. I really recommend this place both to eat there and to take away!! really wow for the prices and the quantity of things to eat I repeat again also for us celiacs!!
lots of sandwiches with really many things to add because you create the sandwich, so put what you want and it's just everything and extra, so also for the price really WOW.
absolutely 5/5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The kingdom of toast!
A modern and informal place, perfect for a quick but tasty break. Wide selection of stuffed toasts, also with vegetarian and gluten-free options. Fresh ingredients and original combinations. Quick service and honest prices.
Very good gluten-free fried fish, well made. In general good food, honest prices, very courteous waiters, nice place. Very recommended for those with celiac disease (and not only) who want to eat well!
