Top 50 Lunch locations in Palermo

I am a celiac since 2009. I must say I had the best food since ever. They can make everything, except one meal, on the menu glutenfree with 100% sure, without the risk of cross contaminations. Would recommend this restaurant to everyone! Nice ambiente, good service and delicious food.

Even though we have been customers for a long time, last night apart from the appetizers, I ate a horrible gluten-free pizza, the edge was very high, about 4 cm, the raw food was inedible and the pizza inside was also raw and tiny in size. I complained about everything, and the answer was we will tell the pizza chef to lower the edge. In addition, for each course they put a supplement of 2 euros for gluten-free, not only for the pizza which I can understand, but for each appetizer including the sorbet a celiac pays 2 euros more per course, shameful.

Alberto del Arco

A restaurant with excellent food and many gluten-free options. The family atmosphere is very pleasant. We ordered Pasta alla Norma and gluten-free Tortellini.

Jessica Jeal

My friend and I ate here. Mine was gluten free, Incredible! I couldn’t tell and I also couldn’t finish it. I’ve never not been able to finish my pizza. So tasty! Would recommend

GIUSY LEVANTINO

Always a great experience. I always find competence and efficiency, they are very kind and put you at ease. Then the pizzas are spectacular, I also eat gluten free and for me one of the best pizzas in Palermo. Good guys keep it up 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Enza

Everything was delicious, you can choose anything gluten-free, and I had a great time... Super friendly staff

Antonio Tina

One of the best gluten-free pizzas we've ever eaten. Highly recommended for people with celiac disease. There's no extra charge for the gluten-free pizza. They use a separate oven. The owner was also very nice. Highly recommended. We'd be happy to come back.

marco farina

Everything was excellent, from the appetizer to the pizza. As a celiac, I had a great time!

Jessica Jeal

Incredible! Gluten free available on all sandwiches

Maja Bk

Delicious food and excellent variety of food. Including desserts. But the staff isn’t trained!! The waiter brought my gluten free pizza in the same hand with gluten pizza directly touching it!! Plate with gluten pizza was on my plate with gluten free pizza

Lisa S

The staff, the atmosphere, and the food were excellent. There were nine of us and only my daughter has Celiac. They took exceptional care of her. Everything she had was delicious and carefully prepared. They even provided her with information on near by bakeries that were 100% gluten free. Our waiter said his wife is celiac also, so he was incredibly knowledgeable.

Ry Salla

I'm sorry but we didn't like the pizza. We came for a person who is celiac, but basically, it seemed to us that all the pizzas were made for celiacs. The dough is biscuity. There are people who like pizza like that but we don't. The environment is small... normal prices.

Ilaria Barbera

Not recommended! Nine euros for a gluten-free "parmigiana". A joke

Chiara Cavallini

Excellent experience and attention for celiacs. The service was very kind.

Letizia AD

Great attention to gluten-free, freshly cooked food. We ate on site at the tables on the main street, a pleasant and relaxed environment. Highly recommended. The potatoes are delicious.

Giuseppina Pecoraro

Small but nice place, welcoming atmosphere, we took 1 gluten-free appetizer, 1 gluten-free pizza with tomato, buffalo mozzarella, bacon and parmesan flakes, and 2 with gluten, 1 Zarina and 1 Margherita. As far as I'm concerned it was the best gluten-free pizza I've ever tasted before... absolutely satisfied

Friederike Hattingen

It was delicious, and we had a fantastic gluten-free pizza...I thought the small surcharge for gluten-free was a shame; we weren't aware of that. Since we have to follow a gluten-free diet, we're glad we had such a great selection here, but it would have been nice not to have to pay extra because we have a medical condition ;) The staff was very friendly, and the service was super quick. We highly recommend this restaurant for people with celiac disease!

Loredana

Very nice place with outdoor tables and indoor area, we were there for a pizza to celebrate a colleague's retirement. I found a good choice in the proposals also original, various types of dough also for celiacs. The service was impeccable, little waiting good coordination in the release of the dishes. The place is very nice and the food is good, I recommend it

Santo

Excellent quality pizza with various types of dough, including gluten free. Availability of seats both indoors and in the dehor in front of the restaurant, capable of accommodating large groups (we were 22..!). To try again to taste another dough among all those available 👍

Fabio Leo

I got a gluten-free and dairy-free cake due to an intolerance not only to gluten but also to casein. A pleasant, tasty and wonderful experience because I would have challenged anyone to notice the difference from a normal cake. Taste experience far beyond the wildest expectations. A balance of flavors and goodness appreciated by all. My compliments to the creator of this wonderful dessert. Fabio Leo

donatella galleri

Friendly and helpful staff. Perfect for celiacs and lactose intolerants, wide selection of pizzas and sandwiches.

Maria Chiara

An experience to remember – thank you “La Dolce Vita in Giardino”! We had dinner at this wonderful restaurant and we can only express our gratitude for the care and love with which we were welcomed. We were a “beautifully complicated” table, composed of 12 people, including one with gluten intolerance — but our every need was listened to, understood and satisfied with extraordinary kindness and professionalism. The staff literally pampered us from start to finish, going beyond all expectations. Always smiling, proactive, available, very prepared. The service was punctual, impeccable, with a genuine friendliness that made us feel truly at home. The food? Excellent, both in quality and presentation. The location is splendid, with attention to detail, and you can breathe an atmosphere of passion and dedication everywhere. The owner was also present, precise, attentive: a clear sign of a management that deeply loves what it does. “La Dolce Vita in Giardino” is much more than a restaurant: it is a place where you are welcomed with the heart. We will definitely be back. Congratulations to all the staff!

Sarah Poupart

Very good gluten-free pizza 😋

Fulvio Cannone

We remembered the really good gluten-free and traditional pizzas, but tonight's disappointment was truly unique. We waited more than 40 minutes to take away pizzas with rubbery dough and poor seasoning both in quantitative and qualitative terms. See photo

Ilk G

Disappointing experience overall We walked around 40 minutes to get to the restaurant, so we were really looking forward to it – but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. The staff were quite rude, and when we sat under a fan (it was hot), we were asked to move. The food was just okay. The carbonara was extremely salty, and the pistachio pasta with burrata came with a tiny burrata – not what you'd expect for the price. Also worth noting: there’s an extra €2 charge per dish for gluten-free options, and they don’t serve café americanos. Wouldn’t go out of my way for it again.

Gab G.

What a huge disappointment. The two of us got two pizzas. A gluten-free Romana and a margherita with mushrooms whose cooking is rather doubtful as they looked like they were defecated by a seagull. In any case, we go beyond sight and eat them, terrible, very poor quality of both the dough and the ingredients (as simple as they were). But that's not all, we also had considerable difficulty digesting the pizzas, which literally remained on our stomachs. Final gem, two pizzas (one Roman and one Margherita with mushrooms) two cokes and a bottle of water €43.50, a robbery!!! If they had been good I wouldn't have said anything, but two crazy things and excessive prices for the poor quality (saying quality is a compliment)! Huge disappointment!! Never never again

Francesca Lo porto

welcoming place, friendly and helpful staff, the food is excellent and you can also eat gluten-free as long as you remind the staff when you arrive

Christina Kamleitner

Amazing breakfast! Super nice people. And the vegan and gluten free options a Dreamteam!!

Paolo Oddo

An experience that goes beyond a simple meal, each dish tells a story with authentic flavors and attention to detail that conquers from the first taste, everything is really excellent, high quality food, the welcome was amazing, very attentive to our needs, the gluten-free pizza is crumbly and delicious, never eaten like this, everything is truly wonderful, I recommend it to everyone to try it

Alessandro Raffa

It's not just that the food is really good. And not even attention to dietary needs (gluten-free, contamination-free, lactose-free, etc.). Let's not even talk about the speed. Let's also talk about the staff who are friendly and knowledgeable. We will definitely return also because our celiac princess of almost 4 years really enjoyed it.

Letizia Mormone

The terrace is a fantastic place. The staff was immediately friendly and accommodating. The food at this restaurant is enhanced in preparation and presentation, with special attention to gluten free. We will be returning Sunday evening for our last night here in Sicily and to enjoy their fantastic sushi.

daniela ferrari

Highly recommended for those with celiac disease. They cook everything gluten-free. The food is delicious and the welcome excellent. They are also very quick in service.

Ilaria Valletta

Kind and attentive staff, delicious gluten-free tempura and fried foods!!!

Valeria “Travel86” Mattina

The kingdom of toast! A modern and informal place, perfect for a quick but tasty break. Wide selection of stuffed toasts, also with vegetarian and gluten-free options. Fresh ingredients and original combinations. Quick service and honest prices.

Francesca Pistolini

Very good gluten-free fried fish, well made. In general good food, honest prices, very courteous waiters, nice place. Very recommended for those with celiac disease (and not only) who want to eat well!

Roberta Salvo

Excellent gluten-free food with a wide choice, the tuna meatball and the artichoke caponata are fantastic but also everything else. Friendly and welcoming service. Highly recommended.

Johny Raid

Very atmospheric and pleasant place, in the very center. The choice fell on it, because of the presence of a choice of allergens (decaf coffee, gluten-free, etc.). Everything was very tasty, clean and pleasant service. The place is not cheap, breakfast for two was offended by 73 euros (rather it is our fault, since we wanted to try everything, tomorrow we will definitely come back and I think we will cut the bill in half, since we will already clearly know what we want). I highly recommend

Quentin

Excellent meal in an atypical place in Palermo. There are gluten-free solutions.

Jan Thomann

Absolutely perfect...gluten free with no problems...incredibly delicious and great service. Great location

Linda Cottone

Verdechiaro is a true gem! Every visit is met with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a sense of care that makes dining here a pleasure. The chef’s creativity shines through in every dish beautifully presented, full of flavor, and thoughtfully prepared. We especially appreciate the wide range of gluten-free and vegan options, all part of their commitment to healthy, nourishing cuisine. It’s clear that quality and inclusivity are at the heart of everything they do, including beautifully designed spaces featuring light green (verde chiaro) items. Thank you to the whole team at Verdechiaro for consistently delivering such a delightful experience!

Kae Fortuna

We had a great evening here on Monday me and my wife choice the restaurant as it did a lot of gluten free for the wife so she had a great selection to choose from . Service was good could not do enough for you and the food was really good as you can see in one of photos for starters the wife had gluten free bruschetta was really good bread was soft and crispy on the outside , for main I had the fish fry prawns , fish , squid was tasty. We were sat inside chatting to a local man we were for ages having a laugh would highly recommend.

Stefania Pastorini

After inquiring about gluten-free cuisine (my celiac daughter) they made us sit near the kitchen. Looking at how the orders were carried out, and having noticed the passage of bread with gluten in the kitchen, given that any of the staff came and went from a kitchen where they should be at risk of contamination, I took the liberty of asking the waitress for information and she replied in a pedantic and annoyed way and above all with untruthful answers (the staff in the kitchen absolutely don't use gloves, anyone who touches SG dishes after touching bread and dishes with gluten). He didn't pay for his rudeness, as he walked away he called me a "pain in the ass". Having paid the bill, I kindly pointed out what had happened to the owner. Nothing resolved because in the end I also argued with him who also raised his voice. Terrible experience. ,

Martina Cintorino

Everything fantastic, gluten-free excellent!!

Jennifer Melany Fiore

Rosso Pomodoro Pizzeria Review My experience at Rosso Pomodoro was overall positive, but with some room for improvement, especially in terms of handling allergen requests. We arrived at 7:40 PM and, after ordering, I asked for a gluten-free and lactose-free pizza, stressing the need to pay close attention to contamination, given the presence of other allergens. The pizza arrived at 8:30 PM, but unfortunately it contained pieces of artichokes, an ingredient that was neither indicated nor requested and that I could not eat. The staff, it must be said, was extremely kind and professional: they apologized for the mistake and immediately took the pizza back to the kitchen, preparing another correct one. Once served, the pizza was truly excellent, demonstrating the quality of the ingredients and the care in preparation. However, episodes like this highlight the importance of greater attention in managing food allergies, as similar errors can have serious consequences for those with intolerances or allergies. I ate very well and appreciated the friendly service, but I recommend that the pizzeria improve its food safety processes to make the experience perfect for everyone.

Riitta Mikkonen

We had doubts before entering thinking it was a tourist trap. Instead, with 30 euros we ate and drank well. I have celiac disease and they were very attentive. Friendly staff. I would go back.

Mario Cavasio

Title: Never Again I'm sorry but we didn't have dinner with family, we opted for cuisine instead of pizza but it was disappointing, flat and at an unjustifiable cost. Advice for restaurateurs... Rethink the kitchen menu and remove the things you can't handle (fish). Have a policy about what the season offers. Throw the pesto in the jar for goodness sake!!! Positive note: the gluten-free pizza dough is really good! What a pity! I hope that even if negative this review can be appreciated in a constructive way, I gave it 3 and no less because in my opinion the pizza part is good but I don't think I will return to try it. Never say never! Friendly staff open to... Advice!

Donatella Bianco

They prepared a gluten-free first course for me, respecting contamination and informing me about what I could eat or not.

Luisanna Piacente

English: We went to the tavern for dinner, the staff were very kind and super helpful in explaining the dishes. One of us was celiac but had no problem because they have gluten-free pasta, the same for main courses and appetizers. Phenomenal food, pasta full of sauce and really generous portions: a first course was enough for two people, but because of the goodness we literally cleaned the plates (even though in our opinion they were 180/200 grams of pasta). We also had white wine and mixed appetizers with olives, caponata, sweet and sour pumpkin and milk croquettes, all delicious. I highly recommend the place to anyone passing through Palermo also for the characteristic Sicilian atmosphere given by the furniture that I found to be the icing on the cake to the delicious food. For 4 of us we spent about €20 each with a large appetizer, 1 enormous first course each, wine, water and coke, a price that I find very fair for the good food and service offered

rita randazzo

Friendly atmosphere, partially open kitchen. An excellent place for breakfast/snacks and lunches also for veg and celiacs. Very important is that the raw materials are fresh. I will return
