Top 50 Gluten-Free Italian Spots to Relish in Houston

Sarah Alderman

My Gluten free people!!! Run, dont walk. rC's has absolutely blown me away with their GF options. I've always enjoyed their GF pizza, and often buy dough from them for our pizza oven- always amazing. They now have a thick crust Sicilian style that is everything you could ask for. Crispy, fluffy, crispy cheesy side - think pan pizza or deep dish. It AMAZING. They use the same base for bread sticks, cheesy garlic bread, and their spinach artichoke dip. All GF. They have an entire menu for it!!! Even Pasta! If you haven't been in a while, or have never tried RC's, they need to be on your GF safe list. Go treat yourself!!

Tonight we had our church volunteer appreciation dinner at Carrabba’s. What an awesome night! The restaurant looks stunning, even more so than usual with all the holiday decorations. I have been coming here for many years, and it is always beautiful and an amazing experience. Tonight Ishmael and Darwin and the support staff were wonderful. I never had to ask for my glass to be refilled, or my plate to be taken. No small task with 25 people in the room for dinner. Being a former server it always is a breath of fresh air to receive excellent service, especially in this day and age of lackluster experiences at most restaurants after 2020. Every modification I asked for was kindly given to me, which I really appreciated because of being gluten free but still wanting the chicken Marsala. They had a smile on their face after any request that was made by anyone at the table, and I felt like family as I sat there. It was absolutely delicious! The chicken Marsala here is probably the best I’ve ever had. I ate the chicken Marsala at one of the franchises of Carraba’s at the airport in Atlanta in October and it was not even close. It didn’t even compare to how delicious the food is here st the Original. The servers even knew exactly when to close the doors so that we could have some quiet while we ate, visited, played a game, and went around the room to talk about the past year and our grateful hearts for our church family and our pastors. Although I do my best to give compliments instead of complaints, I don’t always succeed in remembering to do it. However, I had to post a review now while I was thinking about it so you would know how happy the whole group was with the meal and the service. Thanks for always being consistently great, guys!

Excellent- Gluten Free Options were outstanding. The GF Bread was the best I have had. I am Celiac and would Definetely Recommend.

This place has the best pizza in houston hands down. I come here often and they’re always consistent. The dough is ON POINT! Been to the best pizzeria in the world in Naples, Italy and I can confidently say that Pizaro’s is up there with them. Even the gluten free option is fantastic. Very easy menu to follow and the customer service is unmatched. 10/10 recommend. My only suggestion is that they change their open hours to be 24/7. Haha

Best gluten free pizza in Houston! Highly recommend the margarita pizza with the gluten free crust and bomba style.

Kevin Blasco

Gluten-free Italian sausage pizza is by far the best in Houston.

Delicious gluten free options! Some of the best pizza I’ve had in years!

Heather Hull

Go eat here! Tonight we dined at Parry’s and the food was excellent and so was the service! David took great care of us and we had a lovely evening! The fried pickles were a favorite! I have an allergy and must eat gluten free pizza! This gluten free pizza has s the best I have ever tasted! Well done Terry, David and the rest at Parry’s Pizza and Taphouse!

Crisp is super yummmmy !! I really enjoy their gluten free pizzas and I’m gluten free . Love the drinks as well. Parking isn’t bad which is good, solid three stalls in the bathroom . The music isn’t super loud , The outside is nice on a good weather day. Happy hour is the way to go as the GF crust is an extra $6 which is steep tbh.

La mejor pizza 🍕 Gluten-free.. esta aquí Las ensaladas. Y sopas fresca echa al momento 100% naturales. Deliciosas Siempre regresamos Gracias a Jasmine por atendernos tan bien

Teresa Koen

Was able to get yummy gluten free food. Took my celiac disease seriously. Could not stop eating the food. Risotto was to die for.

Elizabeth Fagen

Love the pollo Rosa Maria!! The food is excellent and Molly is a great waitress. There was no wait - how refreshing! The pasta with Alfredo sauce was great too and the gluten free pasta is such a great option.

I've been coming here for several years now, and I've always been impressed with all of their dishes. Their waitstaff, especially Carlos, has always been on-point and professional. The biggest draw for my family and I is the Gluten-Free crust options. My wife has Celiac's, has never had a problem, and this has consistently been some of the best GF pizza we've found in Houston.

Megan Reimann

Postino is such a great place to have happy hour with friends. Their patio is outfitted for the Houston weather, so you can enjoy the ambiance of The Heights year-round. Their wine selection is massive, and the servers always have great suggestions on which ones to get. They also have delicious charcuterie boards and appetizers. The bruschetta is a must, and there are gluten-free bread options for those of us with intolerances! Five stars!

Bryson Greene

So, me and my family went to this restaurant called Ciro's and I'm gluten friendly. So, I was very impressed because most places I go to don't have gluten free bread. and most Italian places don't have very good gluten free pasta. and Ciro's gluten free bread and pasta was very good. like it was the best gluten free pasta and gluten free bread. I would recommend going to Ciro's in the Katy area.

We went to the Olive Garden with my family to celebrate my mother's birthday. The staff was very helpful and friendly, I needed gluten free options and they pointed out my options, they gave us candles for the cake we bought and the staff joined us in singing happy birthday.

Lesia Ambrose

Veggie pizza was the best I’ve ever had. Gluten free option as well! I’ll b back! (In my Arnold S. Voice)

Andrea Humphries

I have been here many times for many occasions- casual dinner with friends, work dinners, birthday celebrations- and it’s always a good time. They are very receptive to my gluten intolerance and can make adjustments when needed.

M&D McGoo

Not my favorite but it was good. What I like is the one slice order and even if there is not a type you want they will make you what ever you want. They even made one of the guys a gluten free pizza.

Ryan Chavez

This is what millennials are calling a “red sauce Italian joint.” It’s not rustic, it’s not authentic, and everything about it is perfectly executed. The house salad has a perfect amount of nearly too sweet red wine vinegar. The garlic bread can be served with a garlic infused oil that sounds too garlicky, but is actually what you wish every garlic bread ever tasted like. The bread MUST be house made. It’s incredibly crusty and porous but dense enough to be an Italian loaf. Unexpected. Antipasto plate was a nice little sample of two meats and slice of fresh mozzarella. The star of the plate were the charred and marinated eggplant. The half carafe of house Chianti was less than $20 and tasted much more expensive than the price suggested. Mrs had gluten free penne carbonara. I had the cannelloni. Both dishes were as good or better than any I’ve had in little Italy. Make no mistake… the sauces here are perfectly made. The creams were smooth and delicate, the meat and tomato sauces were flavorful and not overly acidic. Everything was PERFECTLY salted. I’ve been going here off and on over the last twent——cough years, and halfway expected this to be my last time in just to enjoy the nostalgia and a mediocre red sauce Italian meal. Whoops. This place is still legit as all heck, and I’ll be making it a point to return often. Come get seated by an adorable old Italian man and visit an institution that isn’t just resting on the photos on the wall.

Jessica was awesome. I have celiac’s disease and she took great care to make sure my dining experience was seamless despite my dietary restrictions. Great food, amazing service, thanks Jessica!

I enjoy the food in this restaurant and I come frequently because of the gluten-free pasta but I don't know why the service has decreased. I usually order the shrimp cacio e Pepe without pepper or chili flakes because I am allergic and it wasn't a problem and now it's.

Harsh Surana

Amazing food, amazing service. The owner and chef is so nice. Felt so welcomed. I ate the vegetarian pizza (sub'd the base for regular dough instead of gluten free) and loved it. So fresh and authentic.

Marisol Vecchini

Beautiful place, great customer service, and the food was delicious! The reason I give a 4 star was because the noodles for my pasta weren't 100% done. They were gluten-free and needed more time to cook. But the sauce was delicious, and the manager was very attentive.

Amina Diagne

I ordered cauliflower crust because I don't consume gluten, they gave me a regular crust, when I told them they remade the pizza right away and it was delicious. Just watch out for the crust and make sure it is the right crust especially if you have allergies.

Jon Berry

Fantastic every time! Also have gluten free options.

Claire Campbell

Great place. Staff is fabulous. My daughter loves the pepperoni pizza and I did like the gluten free crust margarita pizza although it definitely could have used more cheese. We have a service dog and they are always super accommodating. Very lively place. Has a very good energy and there are always several larger groups there even on weekdays.

Dr Pamela Hernandez

The Gluten Free pizza is so yummy! And drinks are so creative and fun. A cool spot to go for happy hour or to just chill.

Gary Radulski

Great food and they have gluten free pizza!

Scott Holleman

Great service and food with gluten-free options! Don't skip on dessert!

Sheli Mauck

Fantastic restaurant. Great gluten free options. The gluten free bread was amazing! Excellent service.

Mike Castro

Davanti Ristorante is a cozy and authentic Italian restaurant in Houston that offers great cooking and fantastic vibes. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious and fresh. I ordered the Tagliolini Verdure e Gamberi, a thin pasta dish with shrimp and vegetables. It was a satisfying and healthy meal that had the perfect balance of flavors and textures. The shrimp were juicy and flavorful, the pasta was cooked perfectly, and the vegetables added a nice crunch and color to the dish. The basil gave it a fragrant touch that made it even more appetizing. I also had the tiramisu for dessert, and it was amazing. It was creamy, fluffy, and rich, with a hint of coffee and cocoa. It was the perfect way to end my meal. I also enjoyed the wine selection and the gluten-free desserts that they offer. Davanti Ristorante is a gem in the city that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a quality Italian dining experience.

An Barz

I never write reviews, but I don’t want others to think this is an acceptable pizza. I ordered a GF pizza (I have celiacs) with sausage and mushroom. I just moved here and this place had great reviews. I am so disappointed! Barely any toppings. hardly and sauce or cheese, the pie was almost dry, see photo, terrible cheese quality. Bare bones bland non-Italian pizza. It was a $28 - 12” pie! This is a sad excuse for a Pizza, never again!

Chris Fohlin

Great place to go with friends/family to share a bottle of wine, charcuterie board, and appetizers (meatballs!). The paninis are great (including gluten-free) as is the brussels sprouts salad.

Jay Pea

Gluten-free salads, soups, bowls to help you feel healthy!

Sofia Medina

I visited last night and personally ordered the No. 28 pizza (gluten-free), and it was absolutely amazing! The pizza was cooked to perfection, and the combination of prosciutto with truffle cream was simply to die for. The atmosphere of the place was fantastic, and the service was outstanding. I highly recommend everyone to give it a try!

Gloria Charles

The ambiance and service is wonderful. They offer gluten friendly accommodations. There are weekly specials and there website contains more information and specifics on their weekly specials. I believe there is 1/2 Price Bottle of Wine and Specialty Drink Discount nights. Check out their website for more info. Live music via piano was played on the weekend.

Kay Worsham

The best veggie calzon 💜 the gluten free dough and icy. Pepperoni pizza is glorious

Rebecca Whetman

Great little strip mall pizza shop find. Their gluten-free pizza was fantastic and a generous 14”. The big slice was a good deal for my non gluten free son. Glad to find some great gluten free pizza. Medium salad was huge and more than enough for 2 people. Customer service was fantastic. Very helpful and friendly.

Eileen Grupa

They have MANY gluten free item's and the food is delicious 😊

Grace A. Poynter

Had Gluten free rotini and mushroom sauce with grilled chicken and it was so delicious.

Deedra Chavez

I love Carrabba's not only is the staff great especially Cody at the 1960 location but the food is incredibly delicious and flavorful. I can only eat GLUTEN FREE food and Carrabba's has so many options and that's rare to find. I love the Chicken Bryan and the Pollo Rosa Maria. The drinks are tasty and the ambience is nice. HAVE FUN! AND TIP WELL!

Jonathan H.

Went to Sunday lunch after church. We ordered variety of dishes for wife and kids. Our son ate most of the brisket lasagna- absolutely delicious. Girls liked the gluten free pasta with either chicken or shrimp. Overall great experience.

Blanca Richardson

Food tasted delicious & fresh! I ordered the primavera gluten free pasta with shrimp. Enjoyed it thoroughly! I was with a group so our time of waiting isn't the norm, but the servers were on top of refilling drinks and getting bread out. Very friendly staff and I felt welcome. I would definitely come back here for a date night!

Heather Cheung

Delicious! Great gluten free linguine in the frutti di mare. Most gluten free pasta that I’ve had at restaurants taste tacky or just not good, but this tasted like regular pasta. I like how they spoon the red pepper. It’s very generous and tasty!

Kemi Omar

Great food, and they're able to customize dishes to make them gluten free. Customer service was pleasant enough.

Elle

Best pizza in the area. Gluten free options! Delivery is usually fast (unless they’re really busy from lots of orders, which is understandable), and the drivers are always friendly. Once my pizza was totally wrong and they had a new one to my door within half an hour. My friends who are the queen and king of spicy food LOVE their suicide wings.

Rajesh Shah

Good vegetarian options plus gluten free options. Very tasty and timely delivered. Service was outstanding

Tianee Johnson Fox

Best gluten free pasta i have had since i haven't been eating gluten. Honestly delicious. Fresh, great service, I’m so upset i couldn’t order the same meal again before i left town. Amazing !

Liza Yellott

Two different gluten free pizza crusts on the menu and the flavor can’t be beat!!
