Best gluten-free restaurants in Chișinău

Trattoria Della Nonna

Chișinău · Italian

The owner's wife has coeliac disease, which keeps the team highly aware of cross-contamination. Reviewers describe a dedicated gluten-free kitchen space and a separate oven for pizza, along with dedicated equipment such as a container for uncontaminated spicy oil. The kitchen uses separate water for gluten-free pasta and has shown diners the labelled 'Senza Glutine' box. The venue is not a 100% gluten-free facility, so some cross-contact risk remains. Multiple community reports rate staff knowledge as excellent.
