"If you are looking for gluten free pizza, look no further. The pizzas are very tasty, they even have gluten free beer! The staff was also very friendly and spoke good English. Even if it is some minutes outside the main city center, and located nearer to the port, we would recommend doing a detour if you are looking for gluten free pizzas."

"Adorable family owned restaurant in Cagliari. The food and hospitality are both incredible! We had the spaghetti allo scoglio and the trofie in pasta. Both were quite delicious and prepared with fresh seafood. We also tried one of their wide pizza menu selection ( gorgonzola e noci). Was also delicious! For dessert we had sebadas ( the local delicacy) as well as a traditional tiramisu and creme Catalan. The desserts were quite well prepared. And all food portions were generous and served up pretty quick despite being a busy evening. Highly recommend this restaurant for a great Sardinian dining experience"

"The best gluten-free (and overall) pizza I have ever had in a very traditional setting! We discovered this little gem via Google, as 2 of us are gluten intolerant, and it far exceeded our expectations; pizza menu includes specialty options, such as zucchini flowers-amazing taste, and more classical ones. The base is super-thin and super-tasty, the service superb, the price super-modest. If in Cagliari, definitely visit the place, coeliac or not, you are in for a treat!"

"We had the mixed fried fish (calamari, prawns, small fish) and a gluten free aubergine and ham pizza. It was the best pizzeria food we’ve had in Sardinia after being here for a week and travelling all over the island. The staff are super friendly and the room is lovely. Highly recommend and would come back again."

"Great place with friendly staff! You can get real gluten-free (GF) options from start to finish; the GF pizza dough is made inhouse; no frozen Schär pizza base in sight! There are also GF desserts too."

"Amazing gluten-free pizza, fantastic dough, and delicious dairy/gluten-free tiramisu. Lovely atmosphere and friendly and attentive service. Large pizza option for larger appetites. Very nice limoncello too! We loved it for being away from the tourist locations - a gem."
