GF pasta was good. I had it with tomato and basil sauce; it was simple but good. The gelato was great. The staff were attentive and kind. My only complaint is that it was pretty expensive for what it was.

This was SO GOOD!!! We got the fettuccini Alfredo with the sausage and cream sauce and the Baratta salad minus the bread. The gluten-free pasta tasted so amazing. And the Baratta salad was a slam dunk. We got the gelato. Almost every single flavor of their gelato was gluten free. The staff was so helpful and friendly. I felt like I was sitting in Italy having it all. The most amazing gluten free meal I’ve had in a long time.

Had delivered by doordash. Everything was Luke warm and the pizza crushed. And the bread was not labeled. I only ate their fettuccini Alfredo and got so sick about 13 hours later. Had to be food poisoning and have never been so sick. I think eating at the restaurant would be a safer and overall better experience… I so wanted to love it!

Excellent GF fettuccine noodle option and several GF sauces. We had GF sausage with mushrooms in a cream sauce and shrimp in vodka tomato sauce. Tasty, and waitress was knowledgeable and willing to double check which could be done GF.

Nice outdoor seating options. Service a little slow (understaffed?) but friendly.

Vitaly has many gluten free options for me and my family. The waitstaff is knowledgeable and they are helpful when we are ordering gluten free. We eat there all time and don’t get sick even though my daughter and I have celiac disease and are very sensitive. Try the Antioxidant soup and the gluten-free pasta bolognese! They have gluten free flat bread to make a pizza as well

Love the atmosphere here, cute surrounding shops. Excellent food with a taste of authentic Italy as the owner hails from there and many staff as well. They have a dairy free chocolate to die for. Gluten free pasta, and are careful. Love this place!

My daughters glutenfree pasta was definitely NOT glutenfree. One hour after we returned in our hotel she began throwing up. Glutenfree must be taken serious when you are Celiac!

Can be expensive depending on what you get. Got the "sandwiches" mine was really good! My husband got one that he thought would be like a pizza sandwich but it was an actual pizza. My father-in-law got a non-gluten free sandwich he thought was really good. Really good gelato too!

Tried this place on my way home from the fairgrounds. Parking is limited but not impossible - free valet avail. Ordered 2 GF flatbread sandwiches (1 custom turkey/salame/buffalo mozzarella & 1 San Marino), a kids pasta, and 3 lemonades. I really liked my custom sandwich but my husband didn't like the San Marino too much. He said the shaved Parmesan made it too dry. My little girl didn't complain about pasta but said she liked my flatbread better. Total bill $54. Minus 1 star for price and other little things.

This place is super cute and in a perfectly laid back OC setting. I wish I still lived in S CA so I could go often. The food is very good - especially the GF piadina! I had the GF version (I 'made my own') with sliced roasted turkey and fresh mozzarella...it was heavenly!! I liked it so much I ordered it again the next day to take on my way to a non-gluten free wedding.

I also had their mint + chocolate and the salted caramel gelato. (The salted caramel was OK, it tasted a bit burnt but the mint was very good.) They knew I was staying in a hotel so she packed it in a box with ice packs so it wouldn't melt...without me having to ask.

The employes on both visits were very friendly and helpful - especially regarding GF options and questions. Truly a great place and the next time I'm in S CA, I'll be back! Can't wait!

I enjoyed the gluten free pasta bolognese. The staff seemed quite knowledgeable, even asking gelato customers if they were gf. The pasta was above expectations and the sauce was tasty. The portion was just right, not to be overstuffed, especially if you want dessert! Next time I might try gelato. Will definitely be back.
