Follow @bredgyeats for more food pics! You can sprout a new love for gluten-free eats at this local cafe, and you'll hardly miss the gluten. The sandwich is as satisfying as it looks, with ingredients that come together to deliver a delicious bite where basil is the star. They also have a mini side salad, but I opted for an orange almond cake too, and the citrusy addition pairs nicely with the sweet, nutty almond base.

The quality has declined in recent years. However, they do make gluten-free options that are safe for celiacs. Book in advance.

As someone with celiac, I must say eating here was amazing. The owner and wait staff assured me my food would be safe. Owners daughter has celiac. Only 3 items on the menu could not be modified to be gluten free. I even got a gluten free bun to start. (I usually just watch my husband eat the bread everywhere we go). There was 3 options safe for me for dessert as well. The Nutella Gelato was amazing. This was a wonderful experience during our stay in Old Montreal. Would highly recommend.

Food was absolutely phenomenal, as was the service, I would highly highly highly recommend. On top of that, they have an allergen free menu including gluten free with separate dishes to avoid cross contamination.

it was a great meal. 5 of us with different allergies, and ever one was happy. thanks

Best gluten free pizza I've ever had!

Regular crust pizza is okay but not remarkable. Gluten-friendly crust pizza leaves to be desired. Home artisan potatoes are soft and don’t taste freshly made at all. Customer service is great; very thorough with modifications. We enjoyed their home made lemonade.

I’m so disappointed to write this, but as a artisanal pizza/flatbread chaser - this flatbread truly disappointed me. Especially for the price. The fig & bison barely had any cheese on it, with two small slices missing the toppings. $60 with the gluten free cost added, did not feed two of us. We’re small people, with not very big appetites, but when you take away an inch of the crust from being almost burnt, the “medium” flatbread is now a small. Mediocre taste at best, but maybe if there were more toppings on it… upsetting for a first impression.

Excellent attention to detail. Excellent good. Very good variety of gluten free appetisers, mains and desserts. Gluten free pitas, pizzas, pasta. Highly recommend!

Erin Manor

Amazing food. Great service. Very knowledgeable and courteous re celiac. Highly recommend.

We had a fantastic dinner experience at ZOLAS last night with our family of four, including one gluten-free diner. The menu offered plenty of options, and our server was super attentive and provided great recommendations. The food arrived quickly and was piping hot and delicious! We took advantage of the $75 Wednesday night deal, where you get an appetizer to share, individual mains, and a dessert to share for every two people. What a great value! The food was absolutely delicious, and we highly recommend ZOLAS to anyone looking for a great dining experience. Can't wait to go back!

Had a lovely lunch with a gf pizza and a gf spaghetti Napoletana. We also enjoyed the chocolate cake but had to send it back as we questioned the ‘crumb’ sprinkle and turned out to be a garnish which wasn’t gf. Overall aware.

Food was… overall very salty. Not sure if this is how it is suppose to be but from antipasti to pastas, they were all honestly quite salty. Ingredients may be fresh which we would like to appreciate but they are just too salty to be enjoyed. On the other hand, the service was great with solid gluten free options.

Mitul Shah

Gluten free crust is amazing! Loved the place

Bradley Klaver

Amazing pizza every time! Consistent, always fresh, and not shy with toppings. Plus they have delicious gluten free crust available and lactose free cheese for people with dietary restrictions! The servers are also very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend!

Let me start with “I don’t leave a review very often”. We ate at Sopra Sotto two nights in a row it was that good. The first night we took a seat at the bar rather than wait for a table and the second night we asked to sit at the bar because of the wonderful service and interactions we had with Ruairi. Ruairi not only entertained us while we watched him making multiple cocktails but he also made great menu recommendations. The Gnocchi with Braised Beef, Rigatoni Fume Pasta and Lava Chocolate dessert were amazing. This is the best restaurant we have been to in seven weeks of travelling. The name of the restaurant is misleading because whilst the pizzas looked amazing it has quite an extensive variety of pasta, antipasti and desserts with a great wine list and cocktails. I ordered gluten free pasta and desert to share with my husband and he couldn’t tell the difference….their gluten free options are that good.

Robert Gullins

Great celiac selections

Leigha Schuster

Food was excellent, there was a bit of a wait but it was worth it. The staff was super helpful and the waitress even took a picture of the ingredients list on the ice cream to help my sister make sure it didn't contain any of her allergens. They have gluten free options for pizza and pasta which is good. It was super busy on a Saturday night but the way it's divided into rooms keeps the noise manageable so you can still have a conversation without shouting

Love it here. It’s so cozy. Lots of their little treats and baked goods are gluten free and I believe they are all vegan. Their brunch menu is good too! Very generous portions. They always play the perfect cozy calm music, you can reserve a table which I would recommend doing on the weekends. I’m the warmer months they have some patio tables out on the sidewalk to watch all the Locke street dogs walking by. The banana bread is 20/10. I also love their matcha oat latte with strawberry syrup.

Stephanie Seebaran

The pizzas and options for them are really great! I'm allergic to wheat and their gluten-free crust was the best I've ever had!

Nicole Gagnon

Attention to all my GF friends and fellow Celiacs - I can’t recommend this Gondola Pizza location enough. I never would’ve imagined the service and assurance that I received from them. I placed an order online and in the notes, put that I was celiac. Within 5 minutes, I received a phone call from the owner explaining that he is also celiac and that he will personally make my food! He also threw in some gf chicken tenders for me to try and I’m so glad that he did, because they were delicious!! Just having the opportunity to feel normal ordering delicious delivery pizza, is like a dream. Thank you for all the options on your GF menu, and more importantly keeping me safe! Appreciate you, Gondola!

Stephany Andrews

This place is amazing!! We ordered the gluten free Paesana Pizza and it was delicious! The service here is top teir and the atmosphere is beautiful. We enjoyed the outdoor seating and it was great!! Definitely recommend this place!

Steven Kelly

Love it here, a great gluten free pizza

Jonathan Martin

This restaurant has a very nice atmosphere with slightly dim lighting, Italian style 🇮🇹. Wood-fired oven to make good pizzas. Delicious. The waitress even took the time to bake a gluten-free roll for our daughter who is celiac. Great initiative. However, while she was taking the order I noticed that she was not taking notes. Obviously experienced waitresses like her usually remember orders by heart. We ordered a pizza with extra green pepper. Finally the pizza arrived WITHOUT chili.... Not the end of the world, but if she had written notes, she might not have forgotten it. A possible suggestion would be to enter the order into a tablet in hand to avoid this kind of small error. Nothing very serious, so 4 stars out of 5 for today given the small error. Otherwise it was 5/5 😃👌 Also today they clearly lacked waitresses on the floor and therefore the overall service was a little slower. That said, the waitress in question, being experienced, still managed to compensate with her efficiency. I still think that Mother's Day weekend would be a good time to staff the place a little more 😜

I was hesitant to try this place because I'm English and my french is terrible at best, however, the waiter spoke English with me. I didn't ask him to but there is no hiding how terrible my french is and I did appreciate it even though I was prepared to power through. I've had some bad experiences in restaurants in Quebec but this guy was kind and didn't make me feel stupid for trying. I was also nervous because I'm a newly diagnosed celiac and hate feeling like I'm being a bother about my food,however, i get so sick if I eat wrong that I truly cant risk it. I have had many bad experiences eating out as a celiac, either with hidden gluten in my food or snotty waiters who clearly think I'm lying. This place was not like that at all. This place was higly rated as celiac friendly and boy are they ever! They have a special section in their main menu for gluten free options. The waiter was very kind and took me seriously. They changed out the cutlery and use different everything for celiacs to avoid cross contamination. I was immediately put at ease. Between myself and my two kids we all had different dishes and we all loved what we had. The gluten free garlic bread was so incredibly good i wish I had more! If I'm ever in the area again this place would be on my must visit list for any meal.

Kaitlynn Hill

Trash. They don’t answer when they are open and they force you to have gluten free unless you specifically ask

Maureen Carter-Whitney

Delicious multi-course lunch with creative and tasty food. Loved the Roma salad, calamari and salmon entree - all perfectly prepared. The gluten-free pizza was excellent - one of the best I’ve tried! Lovely space and warm service.

Janice Palmer

I had a gluten free pizza from Spiros delivered last night. I have to say it was the best GF crust I have ever had. Thank you!

Katie R

I have celiac disease and they were very accommodating and knew their stuff. Plenty of GF options. One of my best restaurant experiences since being diagnosed. Food was good and service was great.

Lydia Van Thiel

Gluten free crepe. ! Delicious.

Bruce Murray

A really great Italian restusrant in Moncton. Wonderful ambience. I really appreciated the the wide range of gluten free options, especially the wonderful desserts.

Ben Kidd

Excellent gluten-free pasta, possibly the best gluten free pasta in the city.

Stef Spilios

Food was delicious! I’m gluten and dairy free and they were super accommodating! Gluten free pasta with no dairy it was great! Even had an amazing Cesar salad without parm or croutons. Did not expect this for a sit and order spot. Atmosphere makes you feel like you’re actually sitting in a restaurant but it’s so affordable (Pasta $13 + $6 protein pre-tax). Staff are so kind and friendly, food was prepared quickly and without errors. Music is a great vibe and it’s very clean. Definitely coming back!!

Jess S

Great pizza and pasta! Also have awesome gluten free pizza!

Syndia Wysocka

Went in toray with my kids and husband to celebrate my 29th birthday and joe was amazing not only did he make us feel great he accommodated towards my daughters celiac diease and would double check on everything for her

Morgan Jangula

Delicious food. Lots of gluten free options for those with celiac. We had an excellent gluten free crust that was better than most gluten-full crusts I've had. Didn't take a photo of the burrata but it was phenomenal (the missus kept explaining how much she loved the creamy cheese). Our server was friendly and helpful, even offered to take our pizza for a second go in the oven after we thought the crust was underdone. Will definitely be back!

Fiona Clydesdale

Knowledgeable staff and lovely food. Daughters had gf pizza and pasta and enjoyed it all!

Dale Caines

Pasta lacked sauce. Gluten free pasta was very dry. Our waiter was awesome. Smaller portions.

Lynn-Marie Shapcott

We had a Christmas get-together with our bowling group on December 19, 2024. The staff are amazing 👏, they went above and beyond service! The chef expressly made my own plate of gluten-free nachos 😋 THANK YOU! Love Chances R Lynn-Marie Shapcott Kanata

Truckster Aint

Absolutely amazing, the servers knowledge was confident, the pizza base fabulous, the topping great, nice relaxing atmosphere.

Brenna Shilliday

Gluten free pasta is only available for spaghetti and fettuccine, but it was delicious!!! Great food and service, first time here and won’t be the last!

Todd MacKay

We were really disapppointed when we couldn't dine at Sapristi the day before as we didn't realize we needed to make a reservation. We planned ahead the next day and made a reservation and when we arrived we were seated right away at a spot outside. Our server was great and we went all out getting a pitcher of sangria to go with our parmesan fries appetizer and pizzas for our main course. They were very accommodating to my gluten free diet and unfortunately we were too full to try their desserts so I guess we'll need to make another visit one day! Thank you for making our evening memorable with a delicious meal!

Anna “Anna”

Excellent gluten-free menu

Sara Lei

Love the atmosphere and the food. Lot of options for people who are gluten free

Raminder Dhaliwal

Hidden gem, love it. So many gluten free options!!! Thank you for having this. They even have gluten free ravioli and garlic bread

Jeanette McPherson

This was our first time here and we had 2 Celiacs and one gluten free person and we were so impressed with the gf pizza and risotto balls. Crust was one of the best we have had so we ordered another one to go! Service was amazing and server was friendly and informative. Can’t wait to go back.

Amanda Redpath

BEST gluten free bread I’ve ever had! It was a soft, fluffy focaccia and as a celiac, I actually had to double check with the server that it was GF. We stopped here for happy hour before meeting friends for dinner and I am so glad we did! The staff accommodated our large group on the patio with ease, drinks were great and the food was amazing! We will definitely be back!
