Al Porto Ristorante

Superb service, good wine and great food! Excellent Gluten Free (GF) options available!

Passing through Vancouver I decided to try this restaurant driven by the photos and the fact that they make gluten free pizza and pasta, very beautiful environment in a splendid setting, very kind and knowledgeable staff, I chose a gluten-free margherita as a main course, well cooked and abundant, the only small flaw was the very crunchy edge but it's part of the game and quite normal for it to be like that, 2 glasses of barbera in the meantime and sorbet at the end.

Do not come here if you have an allergy. I am not picky when it comes to food but I very clearly stated that I had a gluten allergy and within 5 minutes I was extremely sick. The waiter made it seem like it was my fault and denied any chance of cross contamination, even though I was actively getting sick. I was offered my plate for free afterwards which was kind, and I apologize to much of the wait staff that was friendly, it was a very busy night and I understand it was stressful but this was not an enjoyable dining experience nonetheless.
