Here’s our dishes which can be made gluten-friendly at Grasso. For those with severe allergies, it’s worth noting that due to the busy nature of our kitchen, we’re can’t completely rule out cross-contamination.

We do, however cook our gluten-free pasta in separate water, and cook the gluten-free pizza bases on a tray (but in the same oven as other pizzas).
