Day 1
Dinner + Drinks: Pizzería Chicco di Grano
“This was the first restaurant we went to in Italy, so I was naturally skeptical at first. I was so pleased when all the staff spoke English. Everywhere in Italy does a great job labeling their menus for allergens which made me feel so much better. Just got a Margherita pizza here to start. And was safe!”
Dessert: Limon’è
“Nut-free gelato shop in Rome. They only have lemon flavors and they assured me everything would be safe for my allergies. No risk of cross-contamination. And the shop was adorable!”

Day 9
Lunch: La Tonnarella
“This restaurant looked delicious, however I didn’t feel safe to eat here. We were doing a private boat tour, and our captain made a stop here. My husband ate, but the only way to access this restaurant was by boat and so I didn’t feel safe in case of a reaction. Also, being at the Amalfi coast as opposed to a very touristy area like Rome, the English was much more limited.”
Dinner: Bar Antares
“Really enjoyed this place! I was always a bit more cautious on the Amalfi coast because less people spoke English. I definitely made sure I felt safe before I ate. But this place was great. Beautiful location and delicious food. Menu was written in both Italian and English and there were many safe options for me.”
Sightseeing: Swam in Mediterranean
