Safety Overview

Celiac safety assessment and key features

75%
Good

Pelato is a real treat for celiac diners craving classic Italian comfort—think house-made gluten-free pasta that rivals any wheat version, all clearly marked on the menu. While it's not a dedicated gluten-free kitchen, staff show strong awareness: GF pasta is cooked in separate water, and they're upfront about shared fryers and cross-contact risks. It's refreshing when servers take time to explain what’s truly safe versus what just sounds safe—especially in a place where family members reportedly live gluten free themselves. If you steer clear of fried items and double-check with your server (always a good move), you’ll find a vibrant, satisfying meal that feels thoughtfully prepared for our community.
