Coppa’s monthly gluten-free night is a breath of fresh air for anyone who’s tired of second-guessing every bite. On these special evenings, the entire kitchen gets a deep clean and the menu goes 100% gluten-free, with classics like arancini, garlic knots, and even tiramisu—all safe for celiacs. There’s real peace of mind knowing one of the chefs has a daughter with celiac disease, so they get what’s at stake here. Sure, there have been rare hiccups with food quality or timing, but the dedication to safety is clear—and honestly, the feeling of finally eating out without worry? Priceless.
