As a gluten free person Lucianos is a dream with heaps of cabinet and menu items catering to those with a gf diet. Coffee was fantastic. I can see why it’s so busy all the time. Parking was a tad difficult and I could see that people couldn’t find seats hence just 4 stars for atmosphere

In short, I’ve been here twice and I’d choose to dine elsewhere in chch in places I know do a much better experience for this price.
I don’t have pictures from our visit but they wouldn’t justify anything anyway. The truffle fries had no truffle, just pecorino cheese on top to make them look like truffle fries, a common hack/ trick. The gluten free pizza base could do with some work/improvements, we’ve definitely had better.
The kids menu items are $20 which is so expensive for what you get. We ordered the kids macaroni, and for that portion (the size of a bread and butter plate in a small cast iron sizzler) it would cost $3 to make and they’re charging $20, already steep for a kids meal so I expected it to be amaaaazing. It also came out on a sizzling plate, from a kids menu!? Why would you serve a piping hot cast iron plate to children? It makes absolutely no sense. The staff could do with some major training on the drinks list, it’s a small wine list and wouldn’t take very long to teach the staff what is what, they knew nothing about wine whatsoever. The flavour of our pizza was ok, the beef cheek was lovely, they also have a sparking red wine which was new for us and delicious (even if the waitress didn’t know if it was actually sparkling red wine). All in all I’d choose other restaurants over this next time for sure. There just aren’t enough redeeming factors.
We were really surprised at how good the pizza was considering Hell Pizza is a chain restaurant. It was really good - and that was even with gluten free bases! They even did gluten free garlic bread, and the best bit - they sell vegan EatKinda ice-cream - made from cauliflower!! Super creamy and tasty - and saves cauliflowers deemed not perfect enough for sale at supermarkets, from going to landfill. Just brilliant! Must try :-)
Went there for tea after a movie so booked a late meal and they were very accommodating their pizzas are very good and my girlfriend loves their gluten free pasta's,
would recommend going here for a meal
Delicious pizza and great service. They have the best gluten-free base I've ever tasted! My wife tried both a GF pizza and one with the regular base, and said both were delicious. Lots of very good vegetarian options as well. Highly recommended, looking forward to visiting again!

l loved the food, and the service was very helpful and friendly. They managed to accommodate my nephew gluten-free requirement with some excellent choices.
When it comes to takeaway pizza, nothing beats Hell. You pay a premium price for it, but a premium quality pizza is what you get. I love their gluten-free sprouted seed base, even though I'm not one of those gluten intolerant people. The onion rings are pretty darn good, too.

Gluten free pizza which you pay slightly more for but was definitely worth it!
The owner was lovely and I would definitely recommend this Pepperoni pizza.

Love your pizza, but as a coeliac, I require a gluten free base. I am disappointed that we bought 3 pizzas, it cost 74 dollars and my pizza was called a double, but was half the size of the other two and more expensive. Coeliac is NOT a choice. Gluten free is the ONLY way to treat it!
I come here for the grocery products and deli. It is a delight to shop here, they make the atmosphere so soothing. The delightful colours, the Italian music playing, it's a dream. My recommendation is definitely buying yourself some pre-prepared sachets of risotto and pasta spices. The flavour is out of this world delicious, it's a treat!
If you're gluten free, the pasta you buy here is the best I've tasted, so much closer to the 'real thing'. Totally recommend a visit.
The best pizza in Christchurch, I think! Literally still dreaming about it 2 weeks later. Never disappoints, the staff are lovely and the Gluten Free bases are also very very good.
