28 places tracked · 9 dedicated gluten-free · evidence dated, never guaranteed

Italy is the country that takes coeliac disease seriously by default — and it shows. Mama Eat runs two kitchens, two ovens and two teams in every branch; Risotteria Melotti built an entire restaurant around naturally gluten-free rice from the family farm; Rome and Milan have dedicated bakeries worth a detour. If you only learn to trust one country’s GF infrastructure, make it this one — and still ask your questions.

Before you go

Kitchens change — menus, owners, fryers, staff. Evidence dates tell you when we last saw proof, not what is true today. Always confirm directly with the venue at the time of your visit, say explicitly that it's coeliac disease, and trust your own questions over any listing — including ours.
