Cafe Piccolo is a sweet little Italian restaurant, nestled in a residential area of Seattle called Maple Leaf serving gourmet comfort Italian food and a new favorite of this Seattle gluten free blog!

When we first moved to the area (This gluten free girl is lucky enough to live just around the corner and work right next door) last year and tried out Cafe Piccolo they had a few Seattle gluten free options like bread, fettucine, and all the meat dishes could be made gluten free. I was still happy for they were catering to the Seattle gluten free community, but always hoped they’d bring in more.

Now they have, courtesy of a local gluten free Seattle pasta maker. Cafe Piccolo is now serving gluten free lasagna, spaghetti, ravioli, fettucines, bread, and various other gluten free meat dishes.

Randomly the night before last I was in for a meal and asked if they had made any changes to their gluten free menu (you have to ask) and they replied with enthusiasm that they have heavily upgraded it. I couldn’t believe my luck when they told me what they now offer!

The only other place in Seattle where you can get gluten free lasagna and ravioli is at Razzi’s in Greenwood. Razzi’s is a typical family style Italian restaurant (also very good), whereas Cafe Piccolo is on the gourmet side, with gourmet prices. Well worth it if you ask me. They do gluten free so well, you’d never know it was gluten free! I was supremely full by the time I left and even as I write this I’m excited to visit them again and taste their delicious food.

Thanks Cafe Piccolo for becoming one of the top gluten free Seattle restaurants!
