Toronto - VILLA Restaurant Giveaway!

Gluten-Free Pizza with Pineapple
Villa Restaurant is one of favourite restaurants.  In the heart of Bloor West Village, Villa offers gluten-free pizza, pasta, multigrain dinner buns, salads and even some desserts.  Since 2004, Villa has been serving the Celiac community - long before most other restaurants even considered offering gluten-free options and two years before I was even diagnosed with Celiac Disease.


Do you know how wonderful it is to go to a restaurant and order gluten-free food right from the menu?


I have been there many times and each time the food is great.  My go-to meals are usually the Alfredo with gluten-free spiral noodles or pizza with various toppings.  If you visit during lunch hours, you also get a side salad with your pizza or pasta order!

  9. I have never been to Villa, but I am looking at the menu drooling right now... At first I thought Linguini Di Mare, but the Wild Mushroom Pizza sounds unreal. So I would get the Linguini, and then make who ever I go with get the pizza so I could eat both! :P

  13. That pineapple pizza sounds great. I'm on a pineapple thing lately. All of their entrees sound incredible, but what caught my eye the most was the chevre scalloped potatoes. I love scalloped potatoes and haven't had a new take on them in ages.

  17. I have to choose just one?! Well, my top pick would probably have to the Avocado Pizza, but the Penne Arrabiate with a dinner sounds pretty darn good too :)

  27. The GF pizza is awfully tempting... and so is the Salmon actually... But I'm thinking some nice creamy Fettucine Alfredo... unless they also do the Ravioli GF, then I might be tempted by that! :)
