Vegetarian

confidence 65% ·

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

Pescatarian

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

The seafood menu is extensive: Gamberoni Al Forno, Calamari Alla Griglia, Fritto Misto, Insalata Di Polpo, Spaghetti Pescatora, Spaghetti Alla Marinara, Pescatore Pizza, and Primave Pizza. Vegetarian sides and salads are also available. Staff are described as accommodating, and the kitchen can prepare seafood dishes without meat. An excellent choice for pescatarians.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 65% ·

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

GF pizza base ($5 surcharge) and GF pasta ($4 surcharge) are available, with GF items marked on the menu. Staff are described by some diners as 'extremely knowledgeable', and the kitchen makes its own GF pasta from scratch. However, the kitchen is shared (no dedicated kitchen), GF pizzas are cooked in the same oven as regular pizzas without a separate paddle, and there is no dedicated fryer. Multiple coeliac diners report positive experiences, but one documented a cross-contamination concern. A safe choice for gluten-sensitive diners who confirm procedures with staff; coeliac diners should weigh the shared-oven risk carefully.

Vegan

confidence 55% ·

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

The Uber Eats menu lists a Vegana pizza explicitly marked '(vegan)' with no cheese, San Marzano tomato, rocket, cherry tomatoes, walnuts, and zucchini. A Garlic Pizza is marked '(V)(VG)'. Staff are noted to be accommodating with other allergies. No dedicated vegan kitchen or equipment is mentioned, and cross-contamination is possible in a shared Italian kitchen that uses dairy, meat, and eggs extensively. Vegan diners should order the explicitly marked items and confirm with staff.

marked menu

Nut-free

confidence 35% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The menu contains several nut-containing items: Nutella Bomba (hazelnut), Pistachio Semifreddo, Gnocchi Quattro (walnuts), Cannoli (hazelnut sauce), Mamma's Insalata (crushed walnuts), and Calamari Alla Griglia (roasted walnut salad). No nut-free menu, dedicated equipment, or staff training specifically for nut allergies is mentioned. A shared kitchen likely has nut cross-contamination. Diners with nut allergies should call ahead to discuss risks.

Dairy-free

confidence 40% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The menu is heavily dairy-focused (buffalo mozzarella, fior di latte, burrata, parmesan, gorgonzola, taleggio, cream-based sauces). A few dairy-free options exist—the Vegana pizza (no cheese), Marinara pizza (no cheese, tomato-garlic-oregano base), and Pescatore pizza (no cheese, seafood) are explicit dairy-free items. Garlic Pizza is marked '(VG)' suggesting it may also be dairy-free. A shared kitchen with extensive dairy use means cross-contamination risk is high. Best fit for dairy-intolerant diners who can manage trace exposure; those with anaphylaxis should call ahead.

marked menu

Egg-free

confidence 30% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

Several menu items contain egg (Spaghetti Alla Carbonara explicitly uses egg yolk, tiramisu uses Savoiardi biscotti which typically contain egg, and pasta doughs may use egg). No egg-free menu, dedicated equipment, or staff training is mentioned. Diners with egg allergies should call ahead.

Soy-free

confidence 25% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

Shellfish-free

confidence 40% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The menu features multiple shellfish dishes: Gamberoni Al Forno (king prawns), Fritto Misto (prawns, calamari), Spaghetti Pescatora (prawns, spanner crab), Spaghetti Alla Marinara (prawns, calamari, clams, mussels), Calamari Alla Griglia, Insalata Di Polpo (octopus), Primave Pizza (prawns), and Pescatore Pizza (prawns, calamari). No shellfish-free menu or dedicated kitchen is mentioned. A shared kitchen with extensive shellfish handling means high cross-contamination risk.

Halal

confidence 20% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The menu features pork-based items (prosciutto, leg ham, salami, 'nduja, guanciale), pork and fennel sausages, and alcohol (wine-based cocktails, prosecco). No halal certification or halal menu is mentioned. Diners seeking halal options should contact the venue directly.

Low-FODMAP

confidence 15% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

No low-FODMAP information is available from the sources. The menu features garlic, onion, wheat-based pasta and pizza dough, and high-FODMAP ingredients throughout. Diners should contact the venue directly to discuss individual tolerances.

Sugar-free

confidence 20% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

Keto

confidence 20% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The menu is pasta- and pizza-focused, all high in carbohydrates. No keto-specific options, low-carb substitutions, or nutritional information is available. Diners following a ketogenic diet would find very few suitable options without significant modifications.
