confidence 60%

Va Penne offers gluten-free pasta and pizza. Multiple community reviews praise the quality. The Atly listing marks the restaurant as 'Accommodating' with trained staff but notes some risk of cross-contamination, as the kitchen is shared with regular pasta and pizza dough. One reviewer mentions an 'Ardor gluten free base' option for pizza, indicating that dedicated gluten-free ingredients are available. No dedicated fryer or kitchen is documented. Accreditation sources are absent. Coeliac diners should confirm protocols directly. Cross-contamination risk exists in a shared Italian kitchen.

Best effort ·what tier C means

HappyCow classifies this as a lacto venue with 'Veg-options', noting it offers vegan pasta and pizza choices and vegan notzarella. No menu source or review confirms specific vegan dish marking or dedicated preparation. The explicit mention of vegan notzarella makes staff awareness plausible, but cross-contamination risk in a shared Italian kitchen that uses cheese and meat remains standard. Vegan diners should call ahead and discuss options.

Reminder

Always confirm with venue staff before ordering. Tiers and accreditations are guides, not guarantees.
