Gluten free · checked October 29, 2026
Milan is one of the easiest cities in the world to be coeliac: rice country, so risotto is everywhere, plus fully gluten-free bakeries for your morning cornetto and a gluten-free cotoletta alla milanese.

Send them this before their trip. Save the places to your Chef Amazing and he'll remember them for you, with what to order.
How Chef checks: every place here says it on its own site, or a coeliac writer who ate there does, and we link which. We checked on October 29, 2026. Kitchens change, staff change: if it's coeliac disease, say so every time. Photos marked "a photo like it" aren't of that place. No place paid to be here.
Sono celiaco. Non posso mangiare glutine, nemmeno in tracce. Questo piatto è preparato senza contaminazione?
I'm coeliac. I can't eat gluten, not even traces. Is this dish made with no cross-contamination?
Chef Amazing remembers every place you ate, keeps the lists friends send you, and helps you cook it at home.
