A lovely Italian restaurant with a calm & cozy ambiance. The food is absolutely delicious - especially the lasagna & the seafood pasta, both rich in flavor & perfectly cooked. They also offer a gluten-free menu & options for kids, which makes it a great spot for everyone to enjoy authentic Italian cuisine.
Sensitive celiac. I love this place. Food is delicious! Gluten-free pizza & pasta that actually taste'real.' My favorite Italian resto that caters to celiac.
Food was absolutely phenomenal, as was the service, I would highly highly highly recommend. On top of that, they have an allergen free menu including gluten free with separate dishes to avoid cross contamination.
Excellent service! As a celiac I felt very safe eating there! They even got me a gluten free bread before my main course. I had the Americana Pizza! It was delicious!

Large menu with huge amount of options for celiac, gluten free & vegan (with their own specific menus). Everything we had was great, service was efficient & the lunch menu is surprisingly affordable. Great choice for lunch, celiac &/or vegan Italian food.
Advantages: -Space specifically for gluten free -Red plates for whoever orders from the gluten free menu & is dining-in -Employees were nice -Just loved the toppings on my pizza Disadvantages: -Restaurant always empty, no customers dining-in -So expensive! I ordered two pizzas, & my bill was approximately $60 -The dough of my two pizzas were overcooked & really dense -For approximately $30, a small-sized pizza with just 4 slices is so ridiculous -Had no idea how much did the pizza cost when I was looking at the menu, so where are the prices? Good opportunity to try, but I'm never going back there again. With a restaurant this empty, I'm waiting till I hear the news that the restaurant is bankrupt or out of business or something. Whoever opened this restaurant does not understand the concept of how to open & operate a restaurant or business properly.
Très bon restaurent pour les coeliaques, y a beaucoup de choix sans gluten & les personnels font très attention à la contamination croisée. Je recommande vivement ce restaurent

We were warmly received & sat at our table. Waiter was excellent & when he was told one of our guests was gluten intolerant, he immediately swapped out the cutlery & made sure she got a gluten free bread roll. Crab cakes were ok, a little mushy & fishy for my taste. The arancini were good but on the small side. Pizzas & pastas were very good. I understand that with BYOB restaurants, that their prices are usually higher but found the pricing too high. $31 for a small gluten free pizza & my Americans was $27 but had to add $3 because I went with the PAN version. A bit too pricey for this category of eats.
La pâte des pizzas sans gluten serais à revoir car le goût n'est pas le bon & je voudrais avoir un restaurant à Vaudreuil car sa serais plus proche pour le reste cet supe

J'ai pris un plat de pâtes Alfredo sans gluten. La sauce était très bonne mais j'ai été déçue de voir qu'il n'y avait aucun légume ni aucune forme de viande, pincettes, bacon ou autre. Pour le prix juste pâtes & sauce, ça me paraît exagéré
Nous y sommes allés à 3 ce soir avec la petite de 2ans & demi & avons été super bien servis. Ils sont bons avec les allergies au gluten & produits laitiers & s'y connaissent. Les recommandations du serveur (George) étaient vraiment à point. Ils ont été super accommodants avec notre fille & elle a même eu droit à une boule de crème glacée! Le restaurant idéal pour des gens qui ont des intolérances & les gens "normaux" haha!
Toujours un plaisir de venir !
Le sans gluten est absolument merveilleux pour notre petite-fille atteinte de la maladie coeliaque. C'est toujours un plaisir pour elle de pouvoir aller à votre restaurant. Vous êtes unique.
Merci
Really nice option for strict Gluten Free people : this place is celiac-friendly with dedicated food, & goes up to identifying GF dishes with red plates or red napkins when bringing it to your table. Loved it !
