San Gennaro Trattoria Restaurant Bar
8.3
San Gennaro Trattoria Restaurant Bar is a cozy Arthur Avenue Italian spot that goes unusually deep on gluten-free, with a dedicated celiac-safe menu covering pizza, pasta, and classic mains. Regulars come specifically for the gluten-free options, which are cooked separately and feel more like a full parallel menu than a token accommodation.

San Gennaro Antipasto, Penne Vodka with Shrimp, Pollo San Gennaro
