Top 50 Gluten-Free Italian Havens to Explore in New South Wales

Ana Babb

Such an amazing place!!! My daughter has coeliac disease and hasn’t been able to eat out at Italian restaurants since she was diagnosed (we live in Brissy and haven’t found any coeliac GF restaurants) so when we found 317 while visiting Sydney we had to give it a try!! And we were definitely not disappointed!!! The GF pasta was AMAZING but so was all of the other GF menu items we ordered (salad, skewers, halloumi entree…..we even ordered a takeaway pizza for later 😂). It is such a delight to see accredited gluten free restaurants and it makes dining out so enjoyable!! The service was also second to none, so we will definitely be recommending 317 to all our friends who are visiting Sydney and we will certainly be dining here again on our next visit!!!! Thank you for being Amazing 🤩

Great gluten free pizza option. Customer service was great. Very busy so a bit noisy but all in all great experience

Was a bit nervous with this one given the mixed reviews regarding coeliac safety but I was fine (very sensitive coeliac here). The GF pizza isn’t safe for coeliacs but the pastas are, just go careful with which sauce as some are a may contain. I had the bolognese with no trouble. Huge portions and quite average service, FYI.

The best gluten free pizzas I’ve had so far (and I’ve tried a lot). Delicious food and friendly service. Feels like a family run business, outdoor dining is nice and cool, indoor dining a bit warmer but you get to watch the pizza oven. Looking forward to going back.

The food was genuinely delicious - full of flavour and really comforting. We had the lasagne, which was rich and hearty, and I had a gluten-free pizza that was surprisingly good!! Service was excellent. Big thanks to Alexandro for taking such good care of us - friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. We also got coffees which were strong and authentic - we really enjoyed our time here 😌 The only small downside was the music being a bit loud for me, but just personal preference; everyone else seemed fine with it.

Absolutely delicious and excellent service. We had the caprese salad, eggplant parmigana and a proper wood fired pizza. All dishes were some of the best Italian food we've had outside of Italy. Amazing. And perfectly topped off with great wine and a limoncello! Sad they were sold out of gluten free pizza but will definitely be back to try it when next in the area. Thank you for a great night and 100% recommend.

Best gluten free pizza! And just amazing food! I came here with some friends, being gf and vegan it's hard to go out with a group of friends who don't have dietary requirements and this place was just perfect! I was able to eat the same foods as my friends without feeling left out. I can't wait to come back .

Alex

Best gluten free pizza I have ever had!!! If you are GF you have to try it!

It has been quite awhile since eating here, but so glad we did. We came for lunch as they did have Gluten Free options on the menu as my son is a ceoliac and it is so hard to find a place to take him. This place is outstanding, they are Ceoliac friendly . They told us that they do gf meals separately to non gf which made us feel really safe. The staff were right on top of this, with 2 staff members serving our table and always making sure my son was given the right meal. He had the Pork chop in GF crumb and said he has never been able to get anything like that in a restaurant and it was amazing. 5 stars for there knowledge and kindness as nothing was too hard. I wish that more restaurants took being a ceoliac seriously like Kneading Rubys. Thank you, and the food and service was outstanding.

Friendly and professional service, and delicious food. I recommend the mushroom risotto (good Gluten Free option). The gnocchi and pastas looked great too. My husband had the Pork belly main and he loved it.

Anthony Harris

Sensational pizza (gluten free to accommodate m’lady) with delicious ingredients. Service was so friendly and accommodating. And how can you beat corkage free booze from the wine shop next door. Thanks for great experience Hamish and Alex.

MID Overall, we had a mixed experience – some dishes were delicious, but several service and food issues kept the evening from being truly special. • Tasty mains: The lamb (with potatoes) was absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly. • Great gluten-free dessert: The gluten-free rhubarb dessert was a wonderful end to the meal – creative and flavorful. Areas for Improvement • Slow service for basics: Water service was slow, and one of our cocktails was forgotten until we reminded the staff. • Service slip-ups: A waiter dropped cutlery near our table, and we were almost served a drink in a chipped glass (caught just in time). • Table clutter: Unused wine glasses stayed on our table all night, which felt cluttered and unnecessary. • No dish explanations: Each dish was delivered with no description or introduction, leaving us guessing what we were eating. • Food quality issues: Some ingredients not fresh – the cauliflower salad had pomegranate seeds that tasted old, and a gluten-free zucchini flower appetizer had an off (fishy) taste. • Burnt dessert: Unfortunately, the churros we ordered came out burnt, which was disappointing, especially for a special occasion.

Fantastic service tonight! Our waitress was very friendly and knowledgable. Gluten free gnocchi available and if you fancy dessert, you can have (gluten free) Panna Cotta too!

I tried the gluten free capricciosa pizza. Well-made dough, just the right amount of crunch. Very tasty and abundant ingredients. Definitely a quality Italian product here in Sydney. Silvio, the owner, very kind and friendly. The wine was also excellent! 🤙🏻 Very welcoming place. Recommended.

Had a great dinner here with my family for a birthday this evening and it was my first time visiting this restaurant. The menu has great authentic Italian dishes and the food was all great! I’m coeliac and the gluten free pizza base was the best I’ve ever had. However, my family agreed that we had an unpleasant experience with one of the staff members which is a shame because the rest of them were great expect for the rude girl with the fake lashes. We didn’t appreciate the rudeness of her service, the atmosphere of the restaurant is decent with inside and limited outside seating and parking was easy as there is free 2 hr public parking 1min walk away from the restaurant. 4/5

If you love home style Italian cooking, this is the place to come. Honest Italian food at honest prices. Family owned and run. Basic but unpretentious decor. Great gluten free menu too.

Cloe Palleson

Amazing atmosphere, food and service. The gluten free pizza bases are absolutely delicious, the best I have found in Sydney. Our go-to restaurant! Highly recommend!

Greg Pearce

Had an amazing pasta here, really loved it. My wife is Coeliac and they were very accommodating!

Romy M

We had a great Sunday lunch at Favola. The gluten free pasta is delicious. I had it with the ragu sauce which was yummy but had a couple of bites that tasted a bit fishy as though it had got some of the other sauce in it/been cooked in the same pan. The atmosphere is nice, although a bit hot on a warm day. The server was very friendly. It was very quiet when we dined in which was a shame because the food is good, but perhaps the prices steered people away - it is a bit expensive for pasta when the Italian bowl is down the road but I would say the serves are a big size and the food was fresh and yummy. If it wasn’t so expensive I’d definitely rush back, but for us it’s a special occasion treat.

Samantha Hewitson

Absolutely fantastic. I am coeliac and Pasta Bouy offer gluten free pasta with all of their gluten free by ingredient sauces! We’ve been coming here for 2 years over the Easter break and this year we’ve been here 4 nights out of our 5 night stay. The staff are so friendly and the atmosphere is great. Their happy hour and Saturday drink specials are awesome. 10/10. Sam and Zack :)

Kira Arkhipova

We went during vivid and I am a celiac and I had the gluten free margherita with no reaction! The dough was amazing and their sunset passion fruit mocktail was amazing! I would highly suggest this place, my mom and stepdad also got salmon and the cut of the week and they also enjoyed it a lot, I didn’t even have time to take a photo of the food as I was too busy eating it, 10/10 all of the people were nice and I highly suggest

Paula Bastos

Best gluten free pasta I ever had! highly recommend. Thank you so much ladies for this amazing experience

Darren Hawkins

We went to Don Fred after a long day of work, and we couldn't have wanted a better place to go to than Don Fred. Vegan, gluten free dining with a sumptuous Italian style and flavour. The service was impeccable. The food devine. We could taste the love of food in EVERY bite. If you're in Sydney, and even if you're travelling from interstate or overseas, this wonderful, intimate, plant based dining experience is a MUST for everyone . Once dined, you'll be thinking of the next time you'll be back

Best pizza base in NSW. Best Gluten Free pizza base in the southern hemisphere. Always great pizza with lovely atmosphere.

I have previously had coffee and the impossible cake from Bottega Coco. The coffee is excellent The impossible cake is meant to be gluten and lactose free but there is something in the cake that I still react too. This time I went with a friend and this my review: Order Gluten & lactose free GNOCCHI AI PORCINI (VG)(V)(GFO), caprese salad, bruschetta, lemon lime bitters, pineapple juice. Pros Excellent service They catered for my gluten free and lactose free dietary requirements. The food was really good. The ambience of the place was also great. The lemon lime bitters was excellent." Cons I didn’t take any pics of the food.

Last night, my husband and I had dinner at Lennox Pizza and ordered a gluten free Surf n Turf pizza. The staff were wonderful, very polite and attentive to our questions and order. The pizza tasted so good that we ordered the same again and ate the lot. These pizzas would be two of the very best Pizzas we have ever had. We will be back. Thank you.

Bella Rose Music

I absolutely loved this restaurant. They have great options for gluten free clients and the staff are amazing. Definitely recommend 🤩

Margaret Harper

Our new family celebration venue. Highly recommended for coeliacs. Fabulous spot, friendly and attentive staff (particularly with coelic requests) and best of all happy tummies :)

Cedar Maycock

Stoked with everything we ordered. The gluten free pizza base was great, comes in one size that’s roughly a medium-large. Can’t recommend enough.

This place had excellent food and great service. They were also very accommodating for my daughter who has to be Gluten-free.

CASA is located in a beautiful and charming spot, especially during Vivid — the ambiance is lovely, and the staff were very attentive and friendly. However, a few things during our visit left us disappointed. Even with the heaters on, the place was still quite cold, which made our food cool down very quickly. The fries were overcooked, had a burnt taste, and were completely unseasoned — not even a pinch of salt. I was told there was a gluten-free bruschetta option, but no one mentioned they would replace the bread with pizza dough. That really changed the texture and flavor, and unfortunately, it wasn’t very enjoyable. The BBQ chicken pizza was another letdown. The BBQ sauce was extremely strong and tasted like a generic, store-bought version — overpowering everything else. On a positive note, the pulled pork with potatoes was absolutely delicious — definitely the highlight of the meal. I’ve been to CASA before and had a great pizza, so I know they can do better. I’m sharing this feedback hoping it helps improve the overall experience for future guests.

Karen Pullar

The absolute best. We had breakfast here two days in a row and the service and food was impeccable. Also had gluten free options for our coeliac daughter. 👌👌

Service and delivery was very good. The wife had a Gluten Free Pizza and she said it was the best she had eaten

Jordan Perkins

Superb food. Prompt & great customer service. Great atmosphere. Gluten free options are delicious.

Bec M

Pizza not safe for celiac despite the reviews on here as there is major cross contamination. Speak to staff as they are knowledgeable and were able to offer an alternative which was delicious !

Jessica Ting

Great gluten free pasta! They were knowledgeable about coeliac disease and gluten - and advised none of their pizzas, which are all pre-made in like slabs, are gluten free however they did do gluten free pasta dishes. Had the pasta, it was delicious, and then had an affogato afterwards - yum, excellent, would go ahead!

Linda Chee

Good for Coeliacs👍

Thaís

The place is always busy and sometimes you need to line up for few minutes or even wait for a table, but the food is really good and really good portions. Sadly they don’t have much options for gluten free or dairy free. The price is ok

Sharkie Kos

Amazing and fresh food, full of flavours, tried all of pastas and pizzas, also gluten free options in both, deserts topped it off, just amazing, will bring the fam next time for sure

Mez007

Celiac was amazing, very friendly always with a smile

Asher Fawcus

Quality pizza, if you need gluten free the bases are great.

Sheen He

Love that they have gluten free vegan cheese pizza option. Our Hawaiian pizza came a little under cooked. Great gluten free spaghetti bolognese. The spaghetti all a pescadora (gluten free) was the bomb!
