fabulous, both sweet and savory, honest prices proportional to the quality, very kind staff.

I am sorry for writing the review only now, but I downloaded the app recently... In fact, I bought from this place last year while passing by to go to Etnaland and mentioned that I needed something for both lunch and dinner. I was told that it would take 10 more minutes for the things to come out of the oven... However, in the meantime, I was told: wait, let me see if there's something ready, and I was offered a tray with various pieces (I stupidly trusted). I did notice that the pieces were scattered, but I couldn’t imagine they were giving me leftover things from the day before!! Gluten-free items tend to be dry... In short, I had to throw everything away and remained hungry for lunch, then had to rely on frozen items from Etnaland for dinner... This left me quite angry... especially since I had specified that I would be going to a place where I couldn't find anything... I contacted them the next day via Facebook, and of course, they responded that usually, such things don’t happen... oh well... I often pass by Messina but I won’t go there again...

Little oven, unfortunately I passed by there on my way back before taking the ferry in the hope of finding something for dinner. There was very little choice and especially nothing that didn't have lactose! I left empty-handed.

Personale gentile e sorridente, ambiente pulito e ampia scelta. Il pane che producono è buonissimo poiché è leggero e salato al punto giusto e poi, appena sfornato ha una crosta esterna croccante e deliziosa. I biscotti sono altrettanto buoni così come la piccola pasticceria e i rustici. Trovo che in prezzi siamo giusti con un ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo. Voto 9 🙂

In poche parole... semplicemente meraviglioso!!! Proprietario e personale gentilissimi, consiglio a tutti coloro che vogliono assaporare il gluten free, prodotti di altissa qualità lavorati con cura e con amore, praticamente uguale se non migliore dei prodotti normali... nuove clienti senza alcun dubbio! 1 ora di strada la facciamo volentieri ❤️

Bellissimo locale, accoglienza e servizio eccellente. Cibo buonissimo soprattutto i pidoni con speck e patate. Dolci da provare. Tornerò sicuramente

Focaccia ordinata per la sera di capodanno, margherita e cipolla, buonissima! Non mangiavo una focaccia così buona da anni. Presi anche dei bignè al pistacchio e al cioccolato, deliziosi!

I went in to get something to eat at noon and the counter was empty; only one arancino and a couple of pastries; when I asked if that was all or if something else was going to come out, I was answered in a rather presumptuous way, as if I were expecting something outrageous. Honestly, I had high expectations... What a pity.

It is certainly an excellent service for those with gluten and lactose issues. However, the lack of courtesy, hospitality, and friendliness from the sales assistant makes the service mediocre and does not reflect the sunny and welcoming nature of Sicilians.

I tried focaccia, pitone, and arancino: all really delicious. The taste is authentic; they almost seem like "normal" products, you can't feel the difference. The prices are a bit high, but it's known that gluten-free costs more. However, the quality is very high, and it's worth it. Finally, a place where I can eat well without risks. I will definitely go back.

I give one star because they should be ashamed, I bought 3 small round sandwiches and they charged me 6 euros... I was speechless... 6 euros, can you believe it??? I can't comment on the quality because they're for my daughter, but it's not fair! It's an exaggeration... Never again!

Finally! Anyone in the house with a celiac knows the pain of seeing their sad eyes in front of gluten-rich delights... and finally there is a place that offers you the specialties you are used to in a gluten-free version (and also lactose-free if you want). In fact, some products (like the sweets, for example) are just as good, if not better. And then there's the very kind lady who takes care of you and entices you. The prices are higher (as we know) but not exaggerated and honest.

Very kind staff, discreet selection of products, and the ones made by them are very good. The only downside is the home delivery service.

We tried more things from this oven, there are things I would buy again and others I would avoid because they lack flavor. The pizza, for example, I will not buy again. The arancini and desserts are good.

Dear Sir/Madam, very well prepared with a list of ingredients for every product. Fresh or vacuum-packed baked goods.

I finally found a store where I can buy gluten-free and lactose-free products, managed by knowledgeable people.

Fantastic staff and exceptional products. A paradise for us celiacs.

So far, I have only tried the bread; a loaf weighing 77g cost me €2.50, and I find the price exaggerated 😅. I would like to try other things, but considering the price of bread, I assume that other items like focaccia, pizza, savory snacks, and especially sweets must be much, much more expensive. What a shame. I appreciate the effort and hope they lower the prices. Unfortunately, in Messina, being celiac or having certain intolerances is still considered a luxury compared to other cities.
