Fresco Pizza and Pasta
The menu marks items with (GF) for gluten-free, and a local review mentions gluten-free options are available if you ask. However, the kitchen is shared with wheat-based pizzas and pastas, and there is no mention of dedicated equipment or separate prep areas. Coeliac diners should confirm cross-contamination protocols with staff before ordering.

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 does not mark vegan items, and no source discusses vegan options. Some vegetarian dishes (e.g. Roasted Vegetable Pizza, Napoletana pasta) may be adaptable, but there is no dedicated vegan menu or staff training mentioned. Vegans should call ahead to discuss options.
