This weekend we had a small reunion with friends, all vegans, one of whom was celiac. The staff was very knowledgeable and kind, their pizza with cheese and vegan pesto... spectacular!!! Also very good risotto with artichokes and veg cheese. We also had the choice of dessert: either a strawberry pudding or an orange cake, I gave in to the cake! Very good and fresh, nothing to envy of the "normal" ones. I don't think these sweets are on the menu, it's always better to call first to let them know what you need and ask. Congratulations, super recommended place.

Excellent with gluten-free cooking

Francesca Ginestroni

We had dinner in this nice restaurant with friends, we were all very satisfied, really excellent cheese focaccia, even the gluten-free foods are really delicious, both the fresh pasta and the cheese focaccia. We will certainly return.

ANDREA MONTI

The place is very well kept, quite elegant and the waiters are friendly. They offer a complete gluten-free mune for celiac.

Mara Fossati

Just had lunch at Zena Zuena with friends. Very kind staff, varied menu, various vegetarian and gluten-free options. We'll be back! Thanks to all the staff for their hospitality and professionalism

Excellent restaurant, near the old port, with traditional dishes and more. Many gluten-free options (and I'm not talking about the usual salad or steak, which are already gluten-free, I'm talking about pizzas, traditional first courses including trofie with pesto, or casonsei with walnut sauce, pizzas, second courses and desserts). I highly recommend the trofie with octopus and taggiasca olives, which I really liked.

Daniele Molinari

Small pizzeria but with truly exceptional pizzas. Long leavening, very good dough, both normal and wholemeal or cereals, excellent seasonings. The service is fast and efficient. It also makes gluten-free pizzas. Spaces a little small

Paola Bernasconi

A huge thank you, and super compliments to the chef.. for the care and attention to the preparation for us celiacs, with contamination... May GOD bless you. Thank you so much for your heartfelt work, and your awareness of our intolerance.

francesca bergagna

What more could you want, a typical Genoese trattoria, on the sea, plentiful dishes, cheap price, and delicious food. They also do gluten-free. Friendly and kind staff.. everything was excellent.. from the starter to the dessert. A fantastic day.. we left there full and happy with the excellent food.. we will definitely be back..

If you don't want to feel bad, go somewhere else. Mediocre "normal" pizzas, tasteless cereal pizza and gluten-free pizza that literally made you want to throw up, burnt underneath but raw, tasted like wet bread. I ate the first two slices because I'm against food waste but halfway through the second slice I had to leave it on the plate, it was eaten by others precisely so as not to throw it away. After about twenty minutes I had to go to the bathroom to throw up (and I went several times), the old waiter approached the table to eavesdrop on what we were saying about it, in all of this he had an arrogant and rude behavior for the whole evening, even before feeling bad. They went to ask to make me a tea because I felt bad from the pizza and I couldn't stand up and they even made me pay for it. Terrible experience, I'm surprised they're still open because all the celiac people I know have felt bad after eating there. There are plenty of other good places that don't try to poison you, do yourself a favor and avoid.

Marco Bisconti

Really satisfied, we arrived in Genoa and we didn't know where to go, we found a nice place, the place isn't the best but it's fine, very kind staff but the pizza really good, highly recommended for gluten-free, the only thing my wife told me good but a little low, but that's okay😉

Giovanni Crespi

Splendid panorama from the veranda, excellent food with excellent gluten-free pizza, we would also like the gluten-free focaccia type recco! Attentive, quick and efficient service.

Immanuel Zürcher

Fine food, good gluten-free pizza

Merit Haury

Beautiful restaurant! Super nice service, incredibly delicious food and also gluten-free pizza alternatives. We are very happy!! :)

Gabriella Luchini

I ordered a gluten-free pizza the other night via deliveroo. The pizza was very good, the ingredients (eggplant and cacioricotta if I'm not mistaken) very good, of excellent quality. It was really worth it, it didn't feel like glutenfeee. I would also like to point out the very kind and nice staff: I ordered through deliveroo 1) in addition to the gluten-free pizza, I had requested french fries. They had the foresight to call me to warn me that there could be contamination since it was French fries and they wanted to make sure that it was okay for me. Much appreciated this, they could have not called me 2) I had politely asked them to let me know when they were about to deliver (so I could leave the hotel for collection) and they called me shortly before Very positive experience, I will definitely order again in the next few days🤪 Ps I didn't have time to take a photo because the pizza was delicious. Pps pizza delivered super hot!

We have known the Donne del Vino association for a few years and given the positive experience of the previous time we decided to repeat the evening in Recco. The reference winery of the evening was Tenuta Carretta of the Miroglio family. We ate two starters: a very good sea bass tartare and the excellent focaccia from Recco, all paired with Alta Langa. First, pansotti with walnut sauce, while second, "Ciupin" (typical Ligurian fish soup) with Canorei. To finish we tasted an excellent dark chocolate dessert combined with Carretta's Moscato d'Asti. Super organized for gluten. Very good and kind Paola (and obviously all her staff!)

Angela Bostan

Unfortunately disappointing experience in this tavern. Young waiters, okay, but inexperienced; they brought the first courses before the appetizers, the wine arrived a quarter of an hour after the glasses, with the meal almost over. The gluten free option is appreciated, however there is a lack of vegan options (as a lactose intolerant I found milk and derivatives in almost all the fish-based dishes). Pleasant environment, in a basement room inside a historic building, dominated by an imposing vault. Average prices, but decidedly high considering the service. Poor wine list, with a poor choice of Ligurian wines, of which only one red can be ordered by the glass and this was absolutely not worth the price.

Sergio Alessi Anghini

I had a great time. Menu only for celiacs. Well done. The problem transformed into an opportunity. Compliments. Excellent food. I'll be back as soon as possible.

Bruno Bruzzo

Dishes and pizzas for celiacs

Chiara Cerveri

Rich and delicious gluten-free menu!

Michelle

Very nice and welcoming restaurant, the area is very convenient and accessible precisely because it is in front of the San Giorgio metro stop. The staff is very friendly and kind. The meatballs were delicious and plated very well. There are also many lactose-free and gluten-free variants. Advise!!

Bianca Guareschi

Excellent veggy choice even for celiacs!!!! Delicious potato gnocchi with confit garlic and basil on a bed of roasted pepper puree, delicious veggy bun with chips, crazy raw veggy cheese cake and delicious veggy meringue with mango foam 💥💥💥

Marco Slavazza

The Le Gardenie restaurant in Riva Trigoso is truly exceptional. Value for money of the highest level, they have a very wide choice of dishes (not to mention the wine list and the Cantine Lunae Black Label... if you find a restaurant that has it on the menu, you should NEVER miss it) almost all also available for celiacs - despite not being a distinctly Gluten Free restaurant - as well as the pizza which they also do to take away. The staff is attentive to every need, so much so that they created special dishes for me and also brought me, instead of the usual pre-packaged bread, a gluten-free flatbread made sensationally good on the spot. The only flaw: it is almost always full and you have to book well in advance. PS: dispassionate advice, the chocolate nuggets of dessert are so delicious that they alone are worth the dinner

Giulio Giorgieri

Excellent lunch, good choice of gluten-free dishes. We didn't try desserts, because we were already full from the main courses. We also admired the magnificent panoramic view of the gulf, from Portofino to Sestri Levante, visible from the large window of the room.

Alida Nygaard

Amazing food! The freshly made pasta was wonderful, and they have great gluten-free options as well! Went with a friend and we absolutely loved the atmosphere. Everyone in the staff was so sweet and patient with our terrible italian 😅 Would love to come back again if I'm ever in Genova, highly recommend!

Agustin Taub

100% recommendable. The pasta is very good. The service is very attentive and friendly. The place is very well decorated. My wife is gluten free and there is a good variety of pasta of very good quality and very tasty. I would come back here many more times.

Tiziano Fistolera

The best Recco focaccia in the world! Also excellent for celiacs!

Livia Mancuso

Delicious sealed gluten-free focaccia from Recco!

Ririan Pelegrini

This is my favorite restaurant in Sestri! The food is amazing, especially if you’re gluten-free or dairy-free like me. The Fritto di Pesce senza glutine is the best I’ve ever had! I came back twice for lunch. You need to be patient with the lady serving; she means well and she is really nice.

Nicole Bartolini

An excellent restaurant, with both meat and fish options, with a spectacular terrace overlooking the sea! The strong point of the place is certainly the terrace which overlooks the sea, giving lunches and dinners a suggestive atmosphere! Offered the possibility of adapting starters, side dishes and main courses to make them gluten-free, gluten-free crackers also available!

Alberto Gentile

Extremely positive experience. Welcoming and kind staff, as well as attentive to the customer. very interesting menu with very carefully prepared dishes. Right portions. Also recommended for celiacs. I will definitely come back

Manuela B.

Very high quality food, trained and kind staff, we recommend trying the buttons with pesto and the shrimp, truffle and burrata gnocchi. Very prepared and attentive to gluten-free cooking.

Cristina Ghiorzi

The absolute top... pampered by a very kind and knowledgeable owner and his collaborators. Also ideal for ceremonies. Super honest prices and excellent quality. They also make gluten free pastries and bread...I made myself hungry talking about it!!!

Der Hammer

Glutenfree Pizza was the best I had in 2,5 weeks of road trip through Italy. I'm still jellouse about that recipe and hope to cook it like them one day. Very authentic and Italian atmosphere from what we experienced.

Silvia Manipura (Silvia.78)

Always a surprise. I have been coming to this place for years, the food is always fresh and well prepared. Everything excellent and gluten free available.

Barbara

We went to this restaurant for a family lunch. We had a good time, good quality food and friendly staff. Average prices Availability of gluten free products The view is very beautiful both inside the restaurant and on the square outside. I definitely recommend it

Zeynep M

Very attentive staff and delicious food. So many gluten free options!!

Sissa di loreto

Good choice ! Nice story ! When they say: "a name, a guarantee". Here is a clear example. And with this I could also stop here but I continue to strongly recommend everyone, not only "foreigners" but above all Genoese people, to visit this lovely place in the Porto Antico area, right in front of the former fish market. This too is a good choice. "Family" managed but no less professional, "Da licki gli mustache" is a very pleasant experience. Cozy, well furnished, with attention to detail and very clean. It offers "home cooking" with typically Ligurian dishes with a look at more modern recipes for both meat and fish and where even celiacs will be satisfied. The menu tells a beautiful story: that of the cook Vanessa, owner of the restaurant since 2017 together with her husband Andrea, and of her love for cooking and home recipes since she was a child. Dishes prepared with love and attention ranging from a selection of captivating appetizers - special mention to the Fassona Cheesecake and Cappon Magro - to first courses, fish or typically Genoese ones with pesto or walnut sauce. Among the second courses, excellent quality of meat with perfect cooking, Stockfish del Baffo that you would never finish eating and Snails alla Verazzina, an ancient recipe from Borgio Verezzi. The anchovy rolls were also delicious and reminded me of Sicily... the region of origin of Vanessa's family. Every day three or four dishes are off the menu such as a superb Ligurian rabbit, very fresh grilled or Ligurian fish, artichokes when in season are offered fried "in rounds" and not in wedges. Don't joke about desserts either...you will be spoiled for choice. The wine list is not extensive but complete and a house wine is up to the task. The bill? Excellent quality/cost ratio, a pleasant surprise too. Congratulations to Vanessa and thanks to Andrea for his kind welcome and his kind service in the room. Well done, keep it up

piero lunati

Excellent gluten-free pizza. Among the best I've eaten.

diana Chiavari

I rediscovered this pizzeria after years and I must say that it did not disappoint me. Pleasant environment, very kind staff. The pizzas are delicious, light and well garnished. I would add that even the pizzas for gluten intolerants are excellent, tasty and above all well cooked and crunchy. Super paccheri with squid sauce!! I highly recommend this restaurant/pizzeria Congratulations to everyone!!!!

Michele Parodi

Excellent service.. attention also for celiacs

Pietro Marchi

I was recently lucky enough to dine at this seafood restaurant, opting for the five-course tasting menu, and I have to say it was a fantastic experience! Each dish was a delicious surprise, with the freshest ingredients and presentations that were almost too pretty to eat. The service was exceptional: the waiters were incredibly friendly and always ready to help, making the atmosphere welcoming and relaxing. They were able to advise us perfectly and were attentive to every detail, without ever being intrusive. They were especially very attentive towards my wife who, as a celiac, cannot eat anything that contains gluten. Bottom line, everything was just perfect. If you are looking for a place to enjoy amazing seafood and feel pampered from start to finish, this restaurant is a must try. I can't wait to go back!

Martino Vella

We visited this restaurant, but did not eat the pizza sitting at the table (but on the beach, a few minutes walk away). I must admit that, although the pizzeria was full, they served and brought us the pizzas within a few minutes and what's more they were really good, both the classic ones and the GLUTEN-FREE one that my girlfriend got. Soft in the dough, but slightly crunchy underneath, very tasty with refined ingredients and a very extensive menu.

Elvira Teichroeb

Lovely restaurant on a narrow walking street with a few tables outside and more inside. Yummy gluten and dairy free pasta. Unfortunately only crackers for gluten free bread.

Matteo Battiato

Good pizzas, good service, excellent gluten free option. A Neapolitan friend of mine gave her a nice "Ua".

HaannahM

Absolutely charming, if I could have given more than 5/5 I would! Freshly made gluten free ravioli, with pesto and shrimp was incredible. Fresh gluten free bread served at the table with olive oil, delicious starter, desert wonderful, and the host was so kind and friendly. Really made an effort to ensure I’d have a great meal eating as a coeliac - best dinner I had all week

IVANO MARCHI

Excellent price/quality. Large choice of risottos. Highly recommended for celiacs.

Paola Boccardo

We ate very well at this place. Furthermore, there is great attention and sensitivity also for celiac and vegetarian people. Highly recommended.

Haris Baig

Excellent food! Quality and flavours. Really friendly and helpful staff. Pay attention to special dietary needs. Choice for celiacs available (gluten free)
