Vegan & gluten free

Vegan and gluten free at Francucci

Italian cooking can be vegan without feeling like a compromise – as long as the vegetables are good. So instead of a stripped-down substitute plate, we serve the dish the family actually eats itself. And if you cannot eat gluten, you do not have to skip the pasta here.

Our pasta comes gluten free

Just say so when you order: we prepare our pasta dishes gluten free on request. That covers the Penne all'Abruzzese, the Spaghetti alla Carbonara, the Spaghettini alla Checca, the Penne alla Vodka and the Spaghetti all'Imperiale. No separate dish, no second menu – the same recipes, a different noodle.

Ribollita di Verdure – vegan and gluten free

Our original big bowl: a steaming bowl of generous vegetable minestrone with chickpeas. Warm, filling, entirely plant-based and free from gluten. €12.00.

With half an Israeli avocado on request (+ €7.00). You can also order it with house-made pasta (+ €3.50) or half a corn-fed chicken breast (+ €7.00) – though it is then no longer gluten free or no longer vegan.

Placeholder: vegan Focaccia Melanzane

The best vegan pizza: Focaccia Melanzane

Order the Focaccia Melanzane without the mozzarella – the spiced aubergine focaccia with extra virgin olive oil and basil works beautifully without cheese. Just say so when you order; it is no trouble for the kitchen.
