Celiac friendly

Mary Fridley

Ordered gluten free food here for the first time recently (as a newly diagnosed celiac). The gluten free pasta was alright, but I wouldn't come back for it. Our server seemed a little like we were an inconvenience just for being there. I almost asked him if he was having a bad day or something, but he was pretty short with any communication and looked at us with blank expressions. The atmosphere on the patio was nice with plants though. Our hostess forgot to bring me a gluten free menu after I asked about it while being seated, but she was apologetic when I went back to the front stand to get one. I've been here before, several years ago, back when I could still eat gluten. From vague memory, that experience was a bit better.

Food is always great and service is fantastic. We had vegan, vegetarian, gluten free and dairy free people in our group and the waitress knew all of the dishes and ingredients and was able to create plates that worked for everyone.

We had a reservation for six; My parents, my wife, my cousin and his husband. It was sort of a "welcome to Minnesota" dinner, as the two of them just moved here from out of state. We consider Andiamo the best Italian restaurant in the South Metro . My cousin and his husband have Coeliac's. So the universal availability of gluten free options was much appreciated. A good experience overall, as we have come to expect.

This is now our second visit to Victoria's and it was just as fantastic as we remembered. This is one of those rare gluten-free finds where someone who is gluten-free can enjoy delicacies such as fresh dinner rolls and pasta. We were in shock when they delivered gluten-free rolls for us, fresh and hot, and they tasted delicious. Both times we have gotten different gluten-free pastas and I'll honestly say my gluten free lasagna was good the first time, but better the second time. We were even able to get gluten-free cheesecake. This time around service was good however there were large parties in front of us and our food came out at different times. We were a party of four and the last dish came out after the other three of us were done eating. But our server was apologetic and explained what was happening. If you are gluten-free and craving some Italian food I definitely recommend Victoria's.

This is the best gluten free Italian restaurant EVER!!!! NEVER had a bad meal, service or experience here ever!!! All of the servers are amazing as well!!! Huge shout out to Jesse as we've had him a handful of times and he is just a 10+ star server!!!! Kudos to the owners for running such an amazing establishment in every way!!!

I can see why this is rated the number one restaurant by Trip Advisor in Duluth. Absolutely a gem of a place in Duluth. I would highly encourage getting a reservation. You might end up waiting quite a bit to get a table without one. The view of Superior is spectacular if you can score outdoor seating. The food....what can I say? Absolutely delicious. My wife is gluten intolerant and they can make most of their dishes gluten free. They even have gluten free pastas and all their sauces are already gluten free. The staff is wonderful. Overall 5/5.

What an absolutely amazing experience dining here! I’m a very sensitive celiac, and loved that they were so knowledgeable and dedicated to giving me a safe, delicious meal! Lexi went above and beyond, we loved interacting with her, and she was very aware of the find me gluten free app! The food was positively outstanding! As gluten free folks know, our pizzas are never crisp, always very pale and ‘lumpy’’…not here! I asked Lexi if it was possible to have the garlic cheese sticks be gluten free, she answered yes immediately! Those were crisp, and heavenly as well! She informed the kitchen of the severity of my allergy and we could hear the staff responding very openly discussing protocols. Even though I had stuffed myself to the gills with the best pizza and cheese sticks I’ve been able to have in 14 years of being celiac…you don’t pass up gluten free salted caramel cheesecake! Everything was exquisite, safe and a must have! It’s a safe haven for gluten free peeps, and there’s plenty for gluten people too! Don’t sleep on this divine small lovely eatery!

The gluten free bread was soooo good, I was soooo excited I forgot to take a picture of it!!! So yummy!!! The roasted veggies are totally amazing and the chicken was perfect!!! Our server was beyond Excellent!!! Thank you for making my Birthday dinner Fantastic!!!!!

Matt Moscho

Great gluten free options! And the espresso martini is lovely

Julie Whelan Capell

Excellent Gluten Free pasta available here. I've been here many times and never had a bad reaction. One of my favorite places in the Twin Cities. I particularly like the seafood pasta w lobster.

Jennifer Martinson

A nice option for fancy dining or a celebration. I love the white tablecloth dining room for your typical Italian dinner, and there is a more casual dining experience around the bar as well. A highlight is that the menu is very friendly to different dietary needs, including gluten free.

Kristen Bongard

I love this place! Love coming here to celebrate life events with family and friends! The service is phenomenal, and the food is amazing! I love that they have their own gluten-free menu and even have gluten-free options as specials!! This is one of my favorite restaurants! There's something for everyone here, and you can't go wrong eating at Chianti Grill! ♡

Mahesh

This is one of the best and most authentic pizza places I have been to. I loved the amount of variety they had for vegetarians and on top of that for vegan and gluten free options. Every single item on the pizza tasted very fresh and melted in the mouth. The server recommended us a local beer and it was amazing as well. Overall a great dining experience after our visit to the nearby Minnehaha Falls. Will surely visit again and wish they had more outlets outside MIneapolis.

C P

Outside dining with great, fresh Italian pizza. Olive oil and balsamic, good salads to start, pizza with gluten free options, as well.

Mike Sylvan

My new favorite restaurant in town! Amazing, fresh and tasty dinner made to perfection. The chef was very understanding of my allergies and made an exception salmon and veggies with amazing gluten free rolls. Also some of the best coffee I’ve had in a while. Really amazing atmosphere and vibe with a great staff. I love this place!

Alexandria Pearson

The server was very busy but they were still able to check on me regularly and made sure I got everything I needed! I had a mushroom thin crust pizza with cashew cheese and it was great! You wouldn't have been able to tell it was dairy free if you hadn't known. Would highly recommend if you are dairy free and still want the pizza experience! They also offer gluten free options if you need it!

S Hamill

Bittersweet dinner at ie as it is closing! 😭 Tremendous food, great gluten free options, and super service. Hope the owner changes his mind... We will miss ie!

Bri Johnson

Great food and fair prices! Loved the number of gluten free options. Piano player was such a beautiful touch.

Kyle Stendel

Great place! I am leery of places that service different types of cuisine because they tend to skimp out on one thing but excel in another, not this place! I would say this place is American to Mexican. I have to say they have some really good food here! They were very accommodating for my gluten restricted diet which is a huge plus. I ordered chicken fajitas w/ white corn tortillas. It was really good! I also loved the specialty cocktails they have. My partners burger looked amazing too. Service was fast and the chips and salsa were fresh and somewhat addicting. Overall, this is my new go to in the downtown strip of Hastings. Try this place!

Mona Edmonds

Amazing selection of gluten free items. Julie spoiled us with a sample of their 5 different gf soup selections. I loved the cauliflower crust pizza. It was the most pizza tasting and texture pizza I've enjoyed for quite awhile. All of the staff was friendly. The food fantastic! Our gluten person agreed that everything was tasty. But if you're gluten free and haven't been there- you should!

Sara Hadley

Great pizza and service! Their cauliflower gluten free pizza was soooo good! They had a gluten allergy protocol as well.

Deborah Nyakaru

I had an amazing time here. The food and drinks were great, the servers were kind, and the restaurant is allergen friendly (gluten-free). The gluten-free noodles are egg noodles so they are quite dense but generally really good.

Christiana Garrett

Amazing Gluten free pizza and amazing atmosphere absolutely loved the fire pit table and the local historic photos.

Le MAC

Higy recommend this place. The staff are welcoming. I enjoyed the gluten-free crust and the pizza is amazing!

Benjamin Siffring

This place is fantastic! Chicken Alfredo is my favorite dish that I have had for special events for over 20 years. I was absolutely dumbfounded when I took the first bite here. This was the best chicken Alfredo I have ever had it honestly made me a bit emotional. The sauce was perfectly balanced and chicken was cooked to perfection. My only regret is not trying this restaurant sooner. Additionally, my wife has gluten ataxia, which is a autoimmune response to gluten and basically an upgraded form of Celiac's. Valentini's had so many great gluten free options, the gf bread and pasta was great according to wifey. Atmosphere and service were top notch. If you haven't been here before and want the best Italian food, stop wasting your time and get a reservation!! (Or just head on in, worked for us but I hear it can be very busy )

Charles Logan

Cozy little pizza place! They offer delivery within a radius. Stopped in because last time I was there it smelled so good, but I didn't have time to stop. My kids demolished the cheese pizza. Wife and I got the spicy chicken pizza. It was excellent! The chicken was cut to a good size. There was a good ratio to dough, cheese and chicken. I love that the crust was thin and had some snap to it without being crispy or burned. First time here. But I will for sure be back. Parkway is easily in my top 5 pizzas! They also offer select gluten free and vegan friendly options.

Joel Maunula

A positive and reliably enjoyable experience. We often order the same combo, and the food and staff are consistently excellent, and as a Gluten Free eater, they have a delicious pizza crust, and clearly mark GF options on the menu, and on the table. I highly recommend their Circle Inn pizza.

Lior Seidel

The wines, ciders and food here are 100% GF.

Mary Manley

We needed a last minute option to feed 100+ people after our food truck canceled and Doge Pizza stepped up! The pizza was delicious and there were so many options including vegan and gluten free. The staff was very helpful in making sure that I got the pizza by the time I needed even though the expected time was almost 45 minutes past when I needed it. Great location, highly recommend

Aaron Cerny

The service is amazing & the food is crazyyyy good!! Love a gluten free crust & the overall vibe is so, so good. The employees are super kind & helpful which is extra appreciated and it’s just a 10/10 overall! Can’t wait to go back ☺️🍕

Rachel R

Highly recommend the gluten-free cauliflower crust pizza!

Elyse Jokinen

It’s about time I leave a review for Sammy’s. Tonight my family and I went there as a large group for the 3rd time… I always call a week ahead and ask for the back room. It’s set up, we have great service, it keeps the kids contained and I can visit with my family. I can tell how much it means to my grandparents to get all of us together like that and tonight after we finished eating my grandpa asked me to plan his birthday there… I most certainly will. Thank you Sammy’s for helping our family get together! Great service, great food and great atmosphere. (Also, I have to be gluten free and having a delicious gluten free pizza makes me the most grateful!)

Megan Stavenes

Love this place! Super friendly service every time I've been there, and love the gluten free option!

Ken Mould

Had a gluten-friendly pizza, best one yet! Staff was super as well!

Derrick Haase

Boneless chicken wings or way too expensive for what you got one piece was smaller than the size of a quarter. Great pizza though gluten free chicken with tomatoes.

Christopher Campbell

Best place to get pizza in the South Metro. Incredibly tasty gluten free pizza as well!

Dylan Rybak

This place offers true Italian food. I grew up with my Nonna right off the boat from Italy so I’m normally pretty picky with pasta 🤣 but this place nails it. But the thing that keeps me hooked on this place is the HOUSE MADE ITALIAN SALAD DRESSING. it is absolute crack. I wish they sold it in bottles. I would buy it wholesale 🤣 I love their chicken parm & gluten free penne, it’s my go to. Meatballs are soft and dense like they should be. My kids love the games. And wanted to shout out server Carter - he is a gem - crazy fast service and so friendly. He will go far. Thanks again.

Ben

Solid local pizza joint. Pricey for decent pizza, would recommend trying the sausage on your pizza! I also tried the Alfredo pizza on half and was surprised how much I liked it. Also went with the square cut for this spot, would recommend. Wish they had some TVs so I could walk there with friends for happy hour drinks and slices. Also Gluten Free safety for an allergy would reach a wider audience and we would personally go more if so

Samantha Castillo

My parents came to town and I wanted to take them somewhere upscale and cool. Josefina was just the right place! The pizzas are so good and they do have a gluten free crust option for both the pizza and pasta so big bonus for that too. Great experience overall.

Mali Queensland

We have gone to Broadway Pizza for years because of their gluten free cheese bread and pizza. I’ve also recommended others go there. Unfortunately, the food has changed. The gf cheese bread is now on a thin slice of gf bread and is horrible, gf pizza just ok. Service was wonderful and have always loved the atmosphere. I feel sad that it is no longer a place we will frequent.

Chris Smith

Punch is always great. One tip, check online or call ahead to see if they have gluten free crust.

Jennie Stewart

The gluten free pizza sticks are phenomenal! Has daily specials too.

Nora Snelling

Great Gluten Free Pizza

Alicia Bolstad

Punch HAD the best gluten free pizza crust and Pizza in the metro area but then they switched crusts to a pre-made frozen pizza crust. The new crust is bland and requires a significant amount of salt to give it some flavor. The new crust doesn’t take on the wood fire taste like their previous crust. They said they had trouble keeping the GF pizza crust in supply and that’s because they were actually good! Good gluten free food can be difficult to find so when you find one they take it away or switch it up it can be devastating. My husband and I ate at Punch Pizza all the time and loved it, and now it looks like we need to find a new pizza joint. No changes to their delicious regular crust pizzas, which deserve 5 stars.

Katie Fuery

I love this quaint, lakeside restaurant. I am Celiac and most items can be made gluten-free. Don't come in a hurry these items are made by chefs. Enjoy your time and the pleasant atmosphere. I should have took a picture of the desert. It was so good we couldn't wait -

Kateryna

One of the best restaurants I have ever been to. Food is delicious, service is top notch, atmosphere is also great. Love the gluten free menu. Portions are big for main dishes. We took leftovers home and on the next day it tasted as good.

Cindy S

Best pizza around in my opinion! Easy to order, great deals and a decent gluten free crust. If you are thinking about frozen pizza these are way better and if your thinking about going out for pizza these are still more delicious and affordable!!
