Came here on a Saturday for dinner. Beautiful outdoor patio for dining. There were no available tables outside so we opted to sit inside. Also the inside was beautifully decorated. We chose this restaurant as they have gf pizza. We ordered the caesar salad with gf croutons to start. Absolutely delicious. My daughter ordered chicken parmigiana and a side pf pasta. No lie, the entire plate was full. Gigantic portion. I ordered the salad and grilled shrimp. Very good. My granddaughter ordered the gluten free pizza and it was delicious! All the waiters and waitresses were very warm and welcoming too! read more

We arrived without a reservation and were still treated wonderfully. Max gave us a warm welcome and seated us quickly. The service from Braian and Heyli was excellent -- attentive, friendly, and always paying attention to every detail. This restaurant is an excellent choice for anyone looking for gluten-free dishes, with a great variety ranging from pasta to delicious desserts. They also have a dedicated gluten-free station, which provides even more peace of mind and plenty of options to enjoy without worries. The quality of the food and the service make us want to come back again and again. I highly recommend it, especially if you're looking for an Italian restaurant with great gluten-free options. Llegamos sin reserva y, aun así, nos atendieron de maravilla. Max nos dio una cálida bienvenida y nos sentaron rápidamente. El servicio de Braian y Heyli fue excelente: atentos, amables y siempre pendientes de cada detalle. Este restaurante es una excelente opción para quienes buscan platos gluten free, con una gran variedad que va desde pastas hasta deliciosos postres. Además, cuentan con una estación dedicada exclusivamente a gluten free, lo que brinda aún más tranquilidad y opciones para disfrutar sin preocupaciones. La calidad de la comida y el servicio nos hacen querer regresar una y otra vez. Lo recomiendo totalmente, especialmente si estás buscando un restaurante italiano con muy buenas opciones sin gluten.. read more

Amazing service and great ambiance!! Our food was really good except the anchovy pizza was too salty but they switched it out for us.

I read the outstanding reviews for Gioia Italy, saw the extensive gluten-free menu, and was very happy to see the dedicated gluten-free kitchen space within the restaurant to ensure the food isn't cross-contaminated, so we decided to take a car ride to Hallandale Beach during our trip to Fort Lauderdale to give them a try! The staff were very friendly and attentive, and the patio was really beautiful to sit outside for a relaxing lunch. The pizza was good, but the crust was not exactly what I hoped for - it was crispy on the bottom and chewy instead of a soft dough like you'd expect in a Neapolitan pizza. The margherita also had a bit too much cheese and not quite enough sauce (some was absorbed by the crust) for my preference. Is this restaurant an amazing option for those with celiac or gluten allergies? Yes! Is this the best gluten-free pizza I've ever had? No. read more

Traditional Italian restaurant specializing in hand tossed pizza with a great Hallandale location. Full liquor bar and of course an espresso machine ready to grind up some Italiano coffee for me. The barista was not overly exciting but professional. Took my $3.50 "shot" next door to Crema to compliment my sandwich. It was a tiny offering at the bottom of the cup but very tasty and strong. Will return to eat a pizza. read more

My friend who is Gluten Free could not stop raving about this place so one day we decided to go. When I told them I wasn't GF but she was they brought out two bread baskets one for me and on GF for her. I have the impression that everything can be made or is GF which is really nice as there isn't a lot of restaurants that cater to it. Now I have traveled all over the world and had Pizza so not to toot my own horn but I know a good pizza. We ordered a GF (which I was sceptical about) pizza the one with fig jam, bacon, arugula and cheese as the name has slipped my mind. It was one of the best pizzas I have had in a long time and probably one of the best ones down here in Florida. So if you do find yourself ordering a pizza you might not want to share because it is so good and you will want to take the rest home for a midnight snack. The staff was super friendly and attentive. Making sure we had everything we wanted and had placed our orders. The restaurant was also very clean and had a very welcoming modern flair. read more

Food is very good and service is attentive. Second visit and equally pleased with pur pizzas and pastas

Food was spectacular. We had the bruschetta, tagliatelle bolognese, Caesar salad, Nutella pizza, Margherita pizza. Everything was superb. Felt like I was in Italy. Tomato sauce and everything tasted authentic and home made style Italian. Service was great too! My daughter shook the table and spilled our cappuccinos by accident and they replaced them super quick without hesitation. read more

Back once more for a little bit of a snack and dessert. Just love this place. The waiter Ivan is always on point. The owner is always friendly and acknowledges when people come in and leave. No place should be like this. read more

Another Gem we found up in Hallandale beach. Food was amazing texture of the pizzas and flavors were blend into perfection. The clam pasta was good but not as special as the pizzas. And the molten lava cake was so good I forgot to take a picture service was really good and the ambiance with music and live entertainment was simply perfect read more

Oh my God! What a find! I was driving around Miami searching for a truly authentic Italian restaurant that also offers gluten-free options--and we hit the jackpot. This place is absolutely incredible! Honestly, it was one of the best meals I've had, whether you're gluten-free or not. The flavors were spot-on, the textures were perfect, and everything from the appetizers to dessert was made with love and precision. If you have any kind of gluten sensitivity and you're in Miami, you HAVE to try this spot. The vibe? Totally on point. The service? Top-notch. The ambience? Like being transported to an upscale restaurant in Italy. And the owner? A class act he personally visits every table, making sure every guest feels welcomed and appreciated. You can tell the whole team reflects his passion and warmth. 10/10 -- This place is a gem read more

What an incredible, delicious meal! I found the restaurant on Find Me Gluten Free and was excited about the plethora of GF options on the menu, especially different pasta varieties. We visited during the early evening and were the only people in the restaurant so got quick service, and our server was attentive. They have a totally separate GF prep area which is amazing! Both meals (gluten free and gluten filled) were tasty and the serving sizes allowed for leftovers, too. The warm gluten free bread was such a nice touch! read more

Terrible restaurant. On my first visit, despite my dissatisfaction they charge me the full price and said I should give the place a 2nd try and they'll "take care of me" Last night I was craving pizza. Me and my partner are "Piola" pizza fans and wanted to try something else. I ordered 2 personal pizza and one glass of white wine. Paid $7 extra for Burrata which was SPOILED tasted sour and fermented and we tossed it. The pizza was super average. Every time we picked a slice; the entire toppings slide right off. Then the bill came. It's was $87 dollars. I couldn't believe my eyes. We order the same size pizza twice a week for $40 for both. Left 18% to the server who was very sweet and kind, and paid over $100 in total for just wanting some pizza. What a rip off how do they have the guts to charge that. read more

Went here to celebrate a birthday. The place has a sleek, minimalistic look to it with both indoor and outdoor dining areas. The staff is very friendly and the place seems to be a very authentic Italian restaurant. We ordered some appetizers that were very tasty with high quality greens and cheese. The restaurant also has many gluten free options including bread and pizza. It's a great place to go for gluten free food. The gluten free bread was very good. I ordered a risotto dish which had both pork and mushrooms. I had to send it back because it was too salty, but the server assured me that they can fix it by adding more water. I couldn't fully understand him with his Italian accent. However, when he brought it back, it was a lot better, but something I wouldn't order again. So, all in all a high quality authentic Italian restaurant with a huge gluten free menu, but also non gluten free dishes. I would go here again and probably try one of their many pizza options. read more

I served in Iraq and Afghanistan with Italian forces and really grew to love them and their culture. I enjoyed being back around their hospitality and passion. This place probably didn't import their great ingredients but they did import their staff direct from Italy. Lucas was out waiter and he was so helpful and fun. The food was amazing and service was very attentive. HIGHLY recommend the pizza!!! Best gluten free pizza you'll find anywhere!!! read more

Ducked in to check out the spanking new and larger and swankier location. I loved the first location in downtown Hollywood, on Young Circle. This new spot has only been open a few days. Still has that "new car smell!" Gold Medal Pizza Champion Massimiliano Stamerra has definitely leveled-up with his new location, and re-created the magic! Chef is currently the most decorated (medals-wise) pizza champion on the planet. All of his many medals and accolades and trophies are on display in the spot. Very impressive. Oh, he's also an acrobat. And has an amazing vibe, too. Nice and sincere guy, for sho! Here a few reasons why this place rocks: * Great ambiance. Located in new and trendy Atlantic Village. * More seating (70 seats more) than the previous location! * All new furniture. New everything, including a gorgeous, new Marana Pizza Oven! * Variable seating options. * An abundance of free parking! SCORE! * 48 pizzas on the menu. Including gluten-free options, and Scrochiarella Pizza--crispy exterior with a fluffy, tasty, moist, soft interior. Yasss!! * Excellent seafood and pasta. * Impressive and unique wine selection. * Full. Liquor. Bar!! Andre makes the jam drinks! * Exterior wood-burning pizza stove. SCORE! * Exterior seating on the West, North, and East side. * Excellent service. * Appropriately priced. Love the place. I've known Chef for over 3 years now, and he is a rockstar. He was one of the founding restaurants in my now-famous Hollywood Florida Food Tour. Videos aplenty of Chef and more on my YouTube. Visit NOW, tell him Cabeza sent ya', see you there! Your boy, Steve, OUT! read more

The impressive food as if you were in Italy, the quality, the atmosphere and the spectacular staff I recommend it 100%

We've been fans of this great establishment since its arrival in the 33019 zip code . We were in need of a good Italian restaurant without the heavy American added ingredients. Tonight was family birthday and we were met at the door by our waiter Brian .. who was outstanding in very way. He was so attentive to us and gave us the best service all night . They also left us alone to enjoy each course .. some of us had the scrumptious salads and the rest of us had a mixture of pizzas and the beautiful pastas . We all travel for our work and love to eat well and Gioias is up there with any place in Manhattan or LA in service and style .. Go there if you want a good night and if you're lucky you'll get Brian or one of the other fabulous staff to look after you ! read more

Went for lunch. Luch prices $15 for pasta seemed reasonable. Ordered rigatoni meat sauce. Very good. Waiter overzealous did not listen to my requests. Music way to loud not befitting restaurant style. When check came i was charged $26. Got it rectified. Again Waiter not attentive. I whas pleased with food. Might go back. read more

Holy cow!!!! This GF menu is soooooo good you definitely won't miss the gluten at ALL. We went with friends who has Celiacs and she was immediately comforted when she saw the SEPARATE KITCHEN for gluten free dishes. We ordered 4 different pizzas, calamari, and house bread all GF! The fig pizza is to this day one of the best pizzas I've ever eaten. I enjoyed the slower pace of service. It was reminiscent of Europe where you are left to really enjoy the company at the table. We definitely weren't neglected by any means and more importantly not rushed. It was clean, well kept, with the Chefs awards on display. This is such a secret gem. If you have Celiacs or someone you love does, TAKE THEM HERE. It was an incredible meal!!! read more

Amazing food, and so great for gluten free! Celiac safe. They have their own dedicated gluten free room to prepare the dough separately! The food is super high quality and the service is great as well. Very nice spot as well read more

It was my first time ever coming here so I didn't know much about their menu. I asked the server which pizza was his best. His suggestion was okay but I was fascinated with their seafood pizza. After taking one bite, the pizza wasn't good. it was soggy and lacked flavor. For the price of $60; including tip. You'd think otherwise. I simply asked if I get another pizza instead. After a bit of discussion. I was told, no. I left the pizza and walked out. As someone who has no issue paying for their food and also tipping for a take out order. I was disappointed with my experience. the least they could've done was given be a cheap pizza but they couldnt even do that. I will NEVER be back. Y'all clearly dont care about customer satisfaction. read more

This was our first time at the new location. We love the convenience of the parking out back. We sat at the bar and had the lovely Alex wait on us. She made me the most delicious espresso martini. We shared a Ceasar salad and I got Bolognese and hubby had the Chicken Parm which was the size of his Head! Both were delicious The space is roomy with outdoor seating and open kitchen concept. Overall a Fantastic experience! Highly recommend trying it! read more

This is the best restaurant. Delicious and high quality gluten free like nowhere else

The waiter Andrei was wonderful and accommodating to start off the atmosphere sitting down here. The food surprisingly amazing even the steak. I asked to have vodka pasta that isn't on the menu but they still made it with some added fees but it was great! The ribeye steak had great flavor. I will definitely come back here if we are in the area because NO aspect of this dining experiment was subpar. There is outside/inside seating. Relaxed environment! This place is a hidden gem. read more
