Rustico

The lunch menu marks several dishes GF (gluten-free) and the website states gluten-free options are available on request. The kitchen is shared with gluten-containing dishes, but a dedicated gluten-free oven is usually available (though it was out of order on one reported visit). Staff are described as knowledgeable and accommodating, and will clean surfaces and change gloves. Multiple coeliac diners report positive experiences, but the venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. Call ahead to confirm the dedicated oven is working and to discuss cross-contamination protocols.
