Top 50 Gluten-Free Spots with Outdoor Seating to Enjoy in Liguria

Celiac .. I find anything cooked specifically Gf ... excellent value for money

Valerie Roy

The food was good and they were very gluten-free friendly. The servers were all very well versed in regard to allergies. My gluten-free gnocchi and gluten-free tiramisu were wonderful.

So I booked a table and I arrived and I didn't wait. At least one thing. We took 2 spaghetti allo scoglio, one gluten-free, pasta a bit soft, muscles and mussels not of quality and not very fresh. I eat them often and if I say so, trust me. There wasn't even a shrimp or a lobster but only clams all closed among other things. Then muscles, squid and calamari that I don't even like. A very small 250 ml bottle of wine just 1 and a half glasses per person, I'm not exaggerating, a bottle of sparkling water, a gluten-free cheesecake + 1 coffee and nothing else. Total €58 seems a bit excessive to me. Around 10:45 pm I asked if it was possible to have mussels alla marinara as a second course and they told me that the kitchen didn't make them anymore because they had to close and among other things they didn't even give me a receipt. Thinking back I would have asked but I paid and wanted to go to the bathroom right away. What can I say, there are definitely better places and also as for the staff, I found a nice young guy but the others gave the impression of not being very friendly once I tried to chat with them inside. I went looking for a good quality/price ratio since they did gluten-free food. Now that I know what it's like, I would never go there again. €60 and we didn't even take any second courses but only two first courses, water, 1 wine, a dessert, not 2! A coffee and total €60.

We can assure you without any doubt that this is the place in question. One of the members of our group is celiac, which is why we chose where to go with extreme care; we would never dream of writing such a serious review without carefully checking that it was read by those directly involved. Terrible place and absolutely not recommended, both for the quality of the service and for the total lack of friendliness. We firmly reiterate that we have been addressed with racist and discriminatory comments that are completely unacceptable: we have been called "sinti" in a derogatory tone. And if you don't remember us, we invite you to consult the recordings of the cameras, given the threat against us after a complaint regarding the mixed fried food 😂😂😂😂

Great gluten free pizza

A.J. Blijleven

Very good restaurant with almost everything we would eat they could make it gluten-free, from starters, main menu, and desserts. Friendly atmosphere and staff, although they speak not really good English, but they can explain a lot about the food.

zoe recalde

gluten free farinata very good. super nice waitresses and a nice atmosphere!

Tino Puricelli

Specializing in gluten free, excellent, courteous service. I had a great time.

Mayte Tolosa

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 😊

Nadine Zollner

June 2025 Cute little restaurant with very friendly service. Both men were super friendly. My husband and I tried a savory and a sweet crepe. Gluten-free, of course, because we'd read they were delicious. We can only confirm that; the crepes taste fluffy and heavenly. It's worth a visit; if we ever come back to Genoa, we'll definitely eat another crepe there. ❤️ Simply a dream for those with celiac disease.

Mum Rez

Great gluten free crust, cooked in foil tray, therefore not contacting oven base. Given separate pizza cutter. My daughter said ‘it’s so good to eat’, after missing multiple meals the last couple of weeks. 😭

Antonella Ceretti

Excellent pizza, wide selection even gluten free. Don't miss the farinata!

Mum Rez

My daughter had a GF pasta w bolognaise, loved it. Smaller sized serve. But glad to find something she liked.

Paul Alex E.

A beautiful restaurant with a magnificent design. Definitely the best gluten-free pizza I've ever eaten. The dough is absolutely perfect. The quality of the ingredients is truly impressive; it's truly gourmet pizza. Garden produce, slow food, respect for the environment... Bonci from Liguria! (Neapolitan version). Service a little slow, but there were plenty of people, very professional and friendly waiters. The most beautiful women in Sanremo come here; it's paradise. Bravo, chef! 🧑‍🍳 (We're waiting for one of your restaurants to open in Nice; we have so much to learn in France about slow food and gluten-free...) 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

marco gargiulo

Had lunch to celebrate my daughter's communion, 16 of us. High quality food, excellent preparation and presentation, both for the 'sea' and the 'land'. Quiet, well-set-up and "scenographic" environment. Excellent service, great attention to customer needs (celiac person above all). Exquisite owners, friendliness, availability and welcome well above the Ligurian average 😆 Adequate price and respectful of what has just been written: experience, professionalism and quality are certainly not free and you can't expect them to be. We will definitely return and recommend it to everyone.

Excellent with gluten-free cooking

Michela R.

Local in the Porto Antico of Genoa with homemade pasta, also in the gluten-free version. The restaurant has some seats both in the internal rooms and at the tables outside. However, booking is recommended. I ate some excellent Trofie with octopus with Taggiasca olives and cherry tomatoes and a very good SG mixed fried food

Valentina Esposito

Professionalism and courtesy TOP gluten-free food

Alessandro Vannozzi

Environment without character but the food is very good, ok for food intolerances, gluten free both pasta and pizza. Generous servings. I advise the pizza chef to wear a clean t-shirt!!!!!!

Genevieve Libke

AMAZING! We had such a great experience at this sandwich shop and truly the best sandwich I’ve ever had. The owner was lovely and very helpful, she spoke perfect English and was able to make such good recommendations. We are gluten free and vegetarian and they had lots and lots of options. Such a great little spot!! Highly recommend.

M

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 😍

Christian Kutscher

A beautiful little pizzeria in the mountains of Imperia city. Extremely accommodating, and the pizzas were simply amazing. The price/performance ratio was great. Even though I hadn't pre-reserved a gluten-free option, they made one ready. I'd be happy to come back! English is spoken by the owner's (presumably) son. Otherwise, only Italian.

Paola Bruno

Went with friends, I have celiac disease and asked for a focaccia with lard, they tell me there is no lard, so I take focaccia with gorgonzola, cherry tomatoes and raw ham which couldn't be saltier than that, the focaccia was quite burnt so I left most of the focaccia it is not No one came to the table again to ask if we wanted anything more or coffee. When we went to the cashier the bill was already ready. See you never again! Paola

A.J. Blijleven

Italian restaurant with gluten-free options

Hanne Helgesen

Amazing gluten free pizza!

Luca Dazzi

Great attention to gluten free food! Lots of choice. Great food and friendly service. We will be back!

Rita

A bit chaotic but good pizza with excellent ingredients Possibility of pizzas, beers and desserts for celiacs

Katie Barthelson

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.

Lorenzo Guidi

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 👏

Michael “Michacar” Carli

Very nice restaurant with outside tables overlooking a small square or the quieter inside area. AIC certified. Friendly staff. We had a gluten-free pizza and an octopus. The pizza wasn't bad, in fact the only thing was that the base was a bit disconnected from the topping, probably because being a frozen product it is first cooked in the oven and then filled (and then maybe put back in the oven for a moment) and therefore it gives more the idea of ​​a topped focaccia, but overall it wasn't bad. The octopus was a bit overcooked and therefore was a bit rubbery, but the flavor was very good. For dessert we had a panna cotta and it was very good. Good coffee. In conclusion I would happily return.

Chiara Padovano

We ate excellent typical Genoese food with many valid gluten-free options. Very nice place and kind and attentive staff.

Christian R.

large place with a small veranda on the edge of the Finale promenade, pizza by the slice, fish and a rather tasty menu that goes well beyond the simple pizzeria.. pizza and menu with ample possibilities to have gluten-free for celiacs.. prices appropriate to the product

Viviana Forte

We ate fish and pizza, all good. It offers gluten-free dishes. The waiters are very kind, youthful and welcoming atmosphere. Located in the port square, perfect location.

Daniela Fiore

The best gluten-free pizza I've ever eaten! Soft and well-leavened dough, homemade. We are now regular customers. Very kind and welcoming staff. Highly recommended.

simona santi

Super as always, excellent Neapolitan-style pizza and top service, a guarantee in Chiavari! Quality ingredients, variety of desserts and drinks. They have gluten free and lactose free. Advised

Maddy McGarrah

Would absolutely recommend the pesto making class at Nessun Dorma!! This was a highlight of my recent trip to Cinque Terre. My husband and I had a wonderful time learning to make delicious pesto in such a fun, welcoming, and truly stunning environment. At the end of the experience, we were served an amazing spread of snacks and bottle of wine to take in the views and enjoy the pesto that we made. I am vegetarian and gluten free, and the staff accommodated all of my restrictions with truly delicious food. Nessun Dorma is a wonderful asset to Manarola and the community - it really highlights the beauty and culture of the town.

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.

Josh Tlow

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 I’ve had!!

Cathy P

Great gf pizza and pasta. The staff seemed very knowledgeable and friendly! A great spot!

Jörn Müller

Very tasty food. We ordered gluten-free pasta and were immediately delivered gluten-free bread (the waiter thinks along with it 😀). 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!

Gregg Kennedy

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.

Silvia Venturino

The very kind and helpful managers, the pizza with quality raw materials. Positive note: presence of gluten-free dough, the pizza was delicious.

Serena L

Very good and well-seasoned pizza. The gluten-free pizza is excellent, it is not a ready-made base, but kneaded by them. Try the farinata. Fresh and friendly service. Very pleasant to eat in the outdoor square, but the spaces between the tables are a bit narrow. Booking directly from Google Maps is fast and functional.

Dario Milanese

Pizzeria restaurant that prepares pizzas, first courses, second courses and desserts. There are numerous alternatives among the white pizzas and you can ask for gluten-free dough. The drinks cost only 50 cents more than water. There are some tables inside, set up in a bright and modern environment. Other tables are set up under the gazebos in the parking lots in front of the restaurant, close to the roadway. The waiters are not very coordinated with each other: the first person who assigned the table did not tell his colleague to clean up and set the table; at the end of the meal, no one came to ask if we wanted a dessert, a coffee or a liqueur.

Manuela Contaldo

Great attention also in case of celiac disease. Excellent cuisine, very well prepared.

Christian R.

In the charming little square of Finalborgo there is this little place, small but with many outdoor seats, you choose the type of pasta and then the sauce, the prices vary... but the constant is that the dish is always abundant! There is the possibility of having gluten-free pasta for celiacs.

Francesca Furfari

Let me start by saying that I know them very well. But finding a place that always welcomes you with a smile, always kind, is not always a given. And then you ask for lactose-free milk and they have it... ask for soy milk... oat milk... well what can I say they have to do with that. Gluten-free products. Well try it and you'll tell me I recommend it 😊

Angela Bostan

Unfortunately disappointing experience in this tavern. Young waiters, okay, but inexperienced; they brought the first courses before the appetizers, the wine arrived a quarter of an hour after the glasses, with the meal almost over. The gluten free option is appreciated, however there is a lack of vegan options (as a lactose intolerant I found milk and derivatives in almost all the fish-based dishes). Pleasant environment, in a basement room inside a historic building, dominated by an imposing vault. Average prices, but decidedly high considering the service. Poor wine list, with a poor choice of Ligurian wines, of which only one red can be ordered by the glass and this was absolutely not worth the price.

Roland Promber

There are also very delicious dishes, gluten-free and lactose-free pizzas and pastas. Simply fabulous flavors and very nice staff. Everything was fine, the best place and right on the beach. One of our favorite places, we will definitely be back.

Daniel

Very good experience - delicious food and welcoming staff. A big plus is the dedicated gluten free Menue. Would recommend without hesitation.
