Top 19 Gluten-Free Pasta Havens to Explore in Liguria

Scarlet Fulton

La Grotta is an exceptional restaurant. My boyfriend is coeliac and they were more than accommodating. We had a fabulous charcuterie board to start which was out of this world. My pesto cream pasta for main was genuinely one of the nicest pasta dishes I’ve ever had. Aperols were flowing, service was top tier. Thank you

Gluten-free pizza excellent for us celiacs, I have been frequenting this pizzeria for years. I don't feel like giving the maximum stars because yesterday I had a bad experience with one of the owners who, to convince me of the safety of his pizza (given the writing that they did not guarantee the lack of contamination on the menu) told me that his daughter has celiac disease and goes into anaphylactic shock. Celiac disease does not lead to anaphylactic shock and since I am also allergic to crustaceans and molluscs, I no longer felt so comfortable entrusting him with my true allergy after having understood from his sentence that he does not know the difference between allergies and celiac disease. Having said that, the pizza is excellent, but the topic should be studied when serving food.

Of all the places with gluten-free cuisine, it remains my favorite where I can eat with the total absence of contamination. The managers are very prepared, welcoming and the cuisine is tasty even for those who are not celiac. Well done, keep working well like this 🙏❤️

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

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.

Let me start by saying that my boyfriend and I didn't even taste the focaccia because we decided to leave after an extremely rude response from the owner. The gluten-free window had little on offer, so I asked the owner if anything else would be coming out in the next few minutes or not. In response, the owner, pointing to the ALMOST EMPTY window as if to demonstrate that I had all the choice in the world, in a sarcastic and annoyed tone, said to me "sorry, what did you expect to come out?" and he left without giving me the opportunity to order. Bad experience, I am consoled by the fact that, reading the other reviews, I seem to understand that this gentleman has given this kind treatment to several people.

Let me start by saying that I know them very well. But finding a place that always welcomes you with a smile, always kind, is not always a given. And then you ask for lactose-free milk and they have it... ask for soy milk... oat milk... well what can I say they have to do with that. Gluten-free products. Well try it and you'll tell me I recommend it 😊

Dear Valentina, after months glued to the phone screen with my mouth watering looking at the photos of your delicacies, I have decided to give myself a gift and take a train from Pontedera to come and taste something from your bakery in Sarzana. And so here I am early in the morning inside your special place; obviously there was the counter full of wonders and your lively and very pleasant presence. I admit that I didn't say much because I was excited, but I bought many things to try: a slice of savory cake, some scones, a piece of vanilla and berry cake and a lemon and blueberry muffin. Everything was exceptional! The scones almost moved me, the flavor was almost identical to the ones I bought in an old bakery in my town when I was little, I ate them with a dear friend of mine outside of school and it really felt like I was going back there. Never eaten so good in eleven years of celiac disease! Not to mention the desserts: tasty, soft, abundant. No disappointments. The prices are absolutely honest and consistent with the quality of the food, I really hope to be able to return soon.

Small spot with good gluten free pasta. Loved their fantasia al mare- perfect for two people to share. They had a packaged sliced bread option which was nice to dip in the oil.

Eniko Balogh

Very good fresh gluten free products they prepare on order.

Paola Paruscio

Emily Westra

We had a great experience here after looking for a long time for gluten free food. The gluten free pasta was delicious and they even brought out gluten free bread before the main dishes. A little overpriced for the portions but was worth it to finally find some gluten free pasta.

Amazing experience! Great variety of delicious vegan and gluten-free options. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I’ll definitely be back!

Fabio Spagnolini

Found by chance while looking for a gluten free option, it turned out to be an unexpected and extraordinary discovery just outside the center of Alassio. The staff was welcoming, present and attentive without ever being intrusive. Every request was handled with a smile and great professionalism. The fresh fish is excellent, the service fast and with attention to the smallest details. The AIC certified gluten free is perfect in every respect: quality of the dishes, safety and attention from the staff. We ordered 2 appetizers, 2 first courses, a half second course (fried fish with vegetables and sweet and sour sauce), dessert and 2 waters, spending around €50 per person. Special mention to the fried food, the best and lightest I've ever eaten: a real PLEASURE for the palate! I would have eaten ten more! Heartfelt thanks to Sean for his hospitality and professionalism. We will definitely be back and will always recommend it!

Before sitting down to eat I asked the service if it was possible that they had GLUTEN FREE food, they replied that they did have 2 types of tagliolini or spaghetti pasta available, we sat down we ordered the drink, and THEY DID NOT HAVE gluten free beer, then I order tagliolini and THEY DID NOT They had it, to finish I ask for bread AND THEY DID NOT have it either. If you are allergic or intolerant to gluten you will go hungry here....

Lucio Blasco
