Top 5 Gluten-Free Italian Havens to Explore in County Dublin

Jessica

Great gluten-free pizza. But, but, but: I was really unsure about the desserts. I don't drink alcohol on principle and asked which dessert was gluten-free. When I pointed out that the cake they'd recommended to me had layers of gin, they said it was jam. And? It's still alcoholic. Honestly, that shattered my trust in the staff. PS: The espresso was great.

We had 3 people in our party and only one had a good food experience. Unfortunately, the 2.people that ordered gluten free pasta dishes were served extremely boring dishes with no flavor and absolutely no attempt at presentation. The gluten free pasta dishes looked like something from a children's menu - no exaggeration, I promise. My dish, Penne Regine All’Arrabbiata, was tasty and well presented. I enjoyed it! Service was attentive. Atmosphere was ok. Tables were close together, somewhat unnecessarily since there was plenty of space in the restaurant. We will not be returning.

Our waitress Kacey was really nice! I'm coeliac and she was amazing and made sure I knew exactly what I could have. She was also really nice to my little sister and very understanding of my gran.

Andrew Kinsella

There was a strand of pasta in my “gluten-free” risotto.

Alan Del Rio

My wife is a celiac and we are here. I specified in the booking that she was a celiac. She ordered a gluten free pizza and panna cotta. She checked with staff that things were actually gluten free. When we came home she was very ill. Not recommended for celiacs.

Many gluten free options and even vegan ones!

Sebastian Wessel

Incredibly good Italian food Gluten-free is no problem at all

Warren Coakley

Chicken wings and halloumi fries were nice, gluten free pizza base available but needs work. Staff were pleasant.

Mariska

Very tasty pasta. Gluten-free also possible. The portions could be bigger, because it is really tasty.

Went for lunch here with my two daughters who are Coeliac. Could not have had better service. Waitress was brilliant and put my young daughters at ease. Great to get good gluten free food and super service.

Was there yesterday with a friend and her 6 year old daughter who is allergic to wheat and dairy. Properly allergic! I only ordered a starter of brushetta, my friend ordered a pasta dish and for her daughter, a gluten free, dairy free pizza. She was explicit about this. The server seemed aloof and unfriendly, like he hated being there and we were bothering him. The place was not busy, only 3 other tables in use at the time of ordering. After over half an hour, the pasta and pizza came but my food was nowhere to be seen. We had a different server now but it seemed the first guy didn't give my order to the kitchen. When my friend looked at her daughters pizza, it was clear it was not vegan cheese. We called the new server over and he could confirm that it was not vegan cheese so a new pizza was ordered. No apology given. He just took it away. I was still waiting on my food. My food eventually came, 45 mins after ordering. At this stage, my friend had finished her food but her daughter was still waiting for her pizza. Not only shockingly slow, disorganised service, the mess up with the pizza could have had serious health implications for my friends daughter. Even when I went to pay, the original server was at the til and he was rude and dismissive and walked away from me. The second server noticed this and took over and I paid the bill. No tip but they also took nothing off the bill for the serious issue of the pizza. No gesture of good will to take the drinks off or anything. This is my second time here and both occasions service was terrible. Will not be returning. A shame as the food was nice.

My favourite Italian restaurant in Dublin, gluten free menu is exquisite. Tried multiple things on the menu and they were all amazing.

Ciara Lennon

Service was amazing, so attentive and knowledgeable about allergens. I’m coeliac and was able to eat nearly everything on the menu, most of the pastas can be made gluten free and they have a dedicated gf fryer!

Ann D'Arcy

Very safe place to eat as a coeliac. Loads of options. Staff very helpful.

Aidan Lamb

Definitely the best place I've been to for a gluten free meal. My wife is coeliac and said it had some of the best bread rolls etc, she has had. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Dominic Latham

"We'll take good care of you" was the answer we got when we asked if it was celiac safe here. Very knowledgeable and accommodating about dietary needs. Delicious too. A great experience.

Peter Hall

Small but fantastic restaurant. Excellent quality of fresh pasta and a great selection of coeliac friendly dishes

Lily L.

Really cute atmosphere with good food. Staff was quick and friendly. Prices were good. Lots of vegetarian options and some gluten free options. Table of four seated with no wait at lunchtime on a Thursday.

I recently visited an Italian restaurant in Dublin with friends for a catch-up, and had a somewhat mixed experience. While the service was efficient, the staff seemed quite busy and a bit rushed at times. Our food arrived promptly, and although there was a small issue with the bill for one of our party members, it was quickly resolved without much fuss. We were seated right away thanks to our reservation. For my main, I chose the Rigatoni All’Amatriciana with gluten-free pasta. It was fine, though I was expecting a more visually appealing presentation. The standout items for me were the Arancini starter, which was both delicious and well-presented, and the dessert, which was equally satisfying. One thing that caught me by surprise, especially compared to neighbouring Italian restaurants, was that there was no offer of Parmesan as a topping for our dishes, something I would have expected. Overall, I’d consider returning, but I’d likely choose a quieter time and opt for the à la carte menu rather than the set dinner menu.

erica !

The gluten free pizzas were an embarrassment to look at. There was barely any sauce on them, so little in fact that you could see the base underneath! Not to mention the cheese was cold... The place was lovely and the staff were nice but if you're going to serve God awful pizzas you're better off removing them from your menu

Walk ins! Excellent service on a busy day, great staff. We had great wine and Prosecco with our dinner. Excellent pasta and sauces. No drama for gluten free menu, the main menu is easily understood and gluten free pasta available for a small extra. Delicious food and we will eat here again Dessert- I’d recommend the Cannoli (the best ever)

Natália Passos

Amazing staff and delicious food! They have gluten free pasta available.

Erin Dunn

Treated my sister and her husband to a dinner for her first night on her honeymoon. The food was great however after specifically stating her allergy to gluten several times, the waiter offered a stated “gluten free” brownie for their dessert which she later found out was not at all gluten free. She spent the next 3 nights of their honeymoon extremely sick. The food and service was otherwise good but I would not recommend coming here if you have an allergy as they do not seem to take them very seriously

Rachel Ni Fhearghusa

I have always struggled to find somewhere to eat in Dundrum. My meal was made gluten free for me with no hassle at all and it was fantastic. The portions were huge and the service was friendly and faultless
