Il Gambero - Italian Restaurant in Carlton

Gluten-free pasta (penne, +$3) and gluten-free pizza base (medium only, +$3) are available on request. The menu uses a 'GL' (gluten low) tag on many mains and starters, and 'GF' on risotto dishes. The venue's FAQ confirms gluten-free options exist and asks guests to notify staff. No dedicated fryer or dedicated kitchen is mentioned; pasta and pizza are prepared in a shared kitchen environment with gluten-containing items. 'Gluten low' labelling (rather than 'gluten free') on most tagged dishes suggests shared prep.
