Disappointing dinner
We went to this restaurant for a family dinner (4 people) during a 3-day vacation, attracted by the fact that it was listed as a member of the AIC circuit. Unfortunately, the experience was well below expectations.
The appetizer arrived immediately, but the gluten-free bread to accompany it was served after an hour. When asked for clarification, the answer was "be patient", because there was a table for 70 people who also arrived after us.
The waiting staff was clearly in a hurry because in addition to the large table there were just as many covers at small tables. And unfortunately, when the first courses arrived, the situation did not improve: overcooked risotto at canteen level, cutlet as hard as a sole, agnolotti with and without gluten brought by the same waiter (a very critical aspect for those with celiac disease).
From a place that presents itself as attentive to gluten-free I expected much more attention and professionalism.
I hope they can reflect on management and, above all, on how many people a restaurant can accommodate based on the available staff. Serving a few well is better than serving everyone badly.
We resolved the evening for the better by stopping in a supermarket.
Definitely an excellent pizza restaurant for those with celiac disease
Prices a little higher than average but quality ingredients and good pizza that is crispy to the right point
Under the air conditioning you need to have an extra garment
Gluten-free dinner!
I was finally able to eat excellent quality gluten-free dishes!
The menu offers revisited traditional dishes and more exotic dishes, all delicious.
The service was excellent, the guy who served us was very nice and very knowledgeable about celiac disease 👏🏼

Very helpful and kind, excellent for those who cannot eat gluten as 99% of the menu is also offered gluten-free.
Not the usual dishes but delicious proposals prepared excellently
Spectacular
Didn’t know where to go because most places close at 2:30/3:00pm
We found this Italian restaurant and honestly it’s the highlight of the day
They can also make the pizzas gluten free
Beautiful experience.. highly recommended place for gluten-free and not only.. courteous, attentive and helpful staff.. excellent value for money.. without a doubt to try again.
Great quick lunch, taste and tradition
We went to this place with some friends for a quick lunch and we were pleasantly surprised. We chose a full menu with sandwich, potatoes and beer: everything was very good!
I had the "FRESC TONNÈ" sandwich (€9.90) with Piedmontese raw meat, tuna sauce, rocket and cherry tomatoes: really tasty and gluten-free, great news for those with intolerances!
The service was quite fast, the style is that of a fast food, but with a touch of Piedmontese tradition that makes the difference.
I recommend it for those looking for a quick but quality lunch, with attention also to dietary needs.
I have been celiac since I was a child and for years I have frequented this restaurant with confidence, because it was one of the few to offer gluten-free options. Unfortunately, today I can no longer say the same.
It is already the second time that, after eating a pizza declared gluten free, I feel sick for hours.
I am sorry to say it, but evidently the attention to contamination is no longer what it once was. For those who are celiac, this is not a detail: it is a question of health.
I hope that the restaurant will truly guarantee the safety it promises again. For now, I do not feel like recommending it to those with special dietary needs.
Great place to have a nice lunch at the foot of the Mole Antonelliana, a very welcoming place full of colors.
We took a "SPICY" Toast and a "CUBAN GLUTEN FREE" with the addition of a portion of chips and 2 cans of water.
Both toasts were really excellent, especially the gluten free one!!
Really good chips, they are not the classic ones you find around in fact I really recommend a portion... Very tasty.
For a total of €21 for 2 people, sitting down for lunch.
The offer of different doughs gives the place a very high rating as, in addition to the classics, there is also gluten-free dough, both in pan and shovel format.
I give my choice, wholemeal focaccia with lard, a solid 10!
The base is excellent, covered with very soft lard.
I will definitely be back!
Going to Past a Porter is like going home. Many selections of traditional Italian pastas and condiments. Also suitable for many intolerances and diets: if you have celiac, vegan and lactose intolerant friends, it will be the place that makes everyone happy! The staff is always very welcoming and smiling :)
Really excellent potatoes and good attention to gluten-free. Too bad about the waiting time and the really basic service. Price in line with the proposal
A neat, fresh and cute place. They also have a gluten-free menu, but in the first course section there is only one type; well, they could also offer stuffed pasta to fully enjoy all the goodness of the region. For the rest, I liked everything!

Horrible quality food, and no I'm not exaggerating, my gluten-free piadina was poorly heated and the salmon inside seemed stale, my friend's seafood lasagna was probably frozen and was not heated well before being served, all water and raw prawns inside
I took photos because it was unpresentable
AIC informed place, no problem for celiacs. Good food, honest prices and possibility to sit outside. I had a plate of cheese frankfurters with bacon. The sauce they make is delicious. The only flaw, although not a serious one, is the presence of only one gluten-free beer (Daura), while there are now many others, even better than Daura and artisanal.

welcoming environment, helpful and friendly staff.
for me who am celiac a real SURPRISE, so many proposals all excellent and tasty!! The fried rice with shrimp and vegetables is truly special. highly recommended
Cozy place, varied menu that can also satisfy vegetarians, vegans and gluten intolerants. Attentive and quick service. However, there was a lot of confusion in the room which was noisy. Prices in line with similar restaurants in the area!
REVIEW ONLY RELEVANT TO GLUTEN FREE. Reported as a gluten free place, two miserable desserts on display, only tasted the chocolate brownie, very expensive, very greasy and disgusting.
A place that lends itself very well, both for a pizza for lunch and for a more refined dinner, a family lunch, a business lunch or with friends. The staff were friendly and pleasant without being excessive. Very good food and notable options for celiacs 😍. Price in line with the offer. Well done! Advise!!
A magnificent discovery! Very knowledgeable about gluten-free and vegetarian/vegan. Excellent food. Knowledgeable staff who recommend the best combinations with sauces. I went with 2 other celiac girls and we had a great time. Finally a restaurant in Turin that knows well what contamination and gluten-free mean. Really very good. Very abundant dishes.
Almost the entire menu is available in a gluten-free version. I had the GF pad thai with medium shrimp and tofu. Excellent, I recommend it. I will return soon to try some desserts too. The girl at the cash register was really kind.
Fantastic! They have vegan options for burgers, smashed, mayo, cheddar... amazing that we have them and also delicious! Also gluten-free bread. The quality of the ingredients is evident. Only thing there was not a single fan inside so it was very hot. But for the food they make peace!!
place with many varieties including vegan or gluten-free ones, it is mostly self-service and they prepare some things at the moment and bring them to your table such as soups or pizza. there are also various desserts and herbal teas. the workers are really kind and helpful and the atmosphere is quiet and welcoming, with spaces both inside and outside. the prices are also more than honest. it is a place that satisfies everyone, in tastes, prices and food restrictions or diets. all very good, we liked it a lot!
Delicious typical dishes!!...even for celiacs, lots of attention to detail, good and very nice owners...also very good for the special cocktails. Advised !
Delicious pizza and desserts 🤩
The gluten-free option (in the photo) is also fantastic (it is not certified). I recommend checking availability when booking.
Gluten-free pizza not recommended, small and very thin with an overcooked outer crust, so little dough that it doesn't even feed me and I can never finish a pizza! The seasoning was without praise and without infamy, but the sadness of the portion which penalizes those who are already forced to eat gluten-free is unforgivable. NEVER AGAIN. The outdoor area of the place is decidedly poor. Very welcoming and helpful waiter. The positive note that made me go down the treat.
Spectacular crepes, both sweet and savory. There are options for everyone on the menu: omnivores, vegetarians, vegans, celiacs.
Excellent, fresh, quality ingredients. Probably the best crepes I've ever eaten. There is also a wide selection for wines. Very nice place, welcoming, capable and helpful staff. I really like the place, it's worth it!
I'll post photos of our delicious take-away crepes
We ate here with my family and it was really good, lots of gluten free things on the menu. Everything was nice and the buckwheat canelloni with spinach were really delicious
Small and welcoming place in the heart of San Salvario, on a quiet street, typical Piedmontese cuisine adapted for celiacs if desired. Be careful about gluten-free even though there is no separate kitchen.
Nice place in the center of Turin, where you can buy artisanal pasta and taste excellent first and second courses (I didn't try the desserts because I'm full, but I imagine they were delicious!)
Fast service
Not suitable for celiacs
Adequate in terms of quality/price ratio
We have been twice and it has never disappointed us! Excellent cuisine and young and very kind staff. Also very equipped for gluten-free.
We recommended it to all our Turin friends who didn't know it yet.
Fantastic vegan restaurant/cafe in the heart of historic Turin just a couple of minutes walk from the Cathedral. We had to wait 20 minutes for a table it was very busy especially with it being Christmas time.
Decent gluten free options but maybe a bit limited. I had 2 sides instead of a main course. Russian salad and mushrooms both were delicious. The portions are very light and most come with a small number of roasted potato wedges. The pizza is very thick more like a topped focaccia. The vegan hot dog (not gf) is Beyond meat as is the burger and my son thought it was amazing!
Portions seemed small but we all left very full and managed dessert. They offer a gluten free tiramisu and Pistacchietto which was delicious. Staff very friendly and helpful and double checked our gluten free orders were correct. Cross contamination aware with everything wiped down and gf dishes prepared separately. Coeliac friendly.
