Amazing small restaurant. Whole menu was Gluten-free. Food was so delicious. They have self ordering machine which made it easy to read in different languages and staff was very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommended for take away or eating in. Food was so big and filling.

Prices are a bit high, but the food is really delicious! The place is very small and there's not even a bathroom, but for a fast food it can be acceptable. The food, however, is really excellent and everything is completely gluten-free! Great place for anyone who is celiac like me. The owner is very kind and helpful. The only thing that makes me a bit perplexed are the prices, which are quite high for a fast food, although I must say that the portions are quite generous. Recommended!

Extremely kind staff and thorough explanation of the dishes and foods. Everything is corn-based and gluten-free! Fabulous arepas and empanadas. Definitely the best in Rome!

delicious food and without contamination risk (the entire menu is gluten-free as they only use corn flour). The staff is super kind and helpful; I always ask 300 questions when I eat out for fear of feeling unwell, and they patiently and accurately answered everything, making me 100% comfortable. At first, the prices seemed a bit high, but the portions are abundant and rich in meat (which is very filling), and with 10/15€ each, we were almost exploding. Highly recommended, I will definitely return.

Small but nice place. You have to wait a bit for a table to become available. Nice and competent staff! It's worth waiting a bit for the high-quality food, and it's good! Compliments to the CHEF!💪🏾 Excellent quality to price ratio! I recommend going there to try typical Venezuelan dishes. Easy to reach location in the city center between Metro Cipro and Metro Ottaviano. We will return to try other specialties from the menu. GLUTEN FREE!

An experience to try to discover the flavors of other cultures! Everything gluten-free, everything fresh, everything delicious! The staff is very kind, passionate about their work and their tradition.

Fantastic experience! There was a monitor to order various products, and for any information, we could ask the owner, who was super kind and available 💯 We shared an empanada and then had an arepa each, and we were full and satisfied... really super good 😋 And for those with lactose intolerance, just ask the owner for confirmation, who explained that there isn't any in the dough and that it’s enough to take a dish without cheese (of course) and that it could also be removed from the dishes that contained it (upon request). I recommend stopping by if you visit Rome 🏟️

Definitely new flavors, I really enjoyed trying something unfamiliar. Often, those who are celiac are limited to the same tasting experiences. El Maìz is a valid alternative. The food is good and the staff is attentive and kind. The place is small but friendly. A line can easily form, I recommend going a little earlier.

F-A-V-O-L-O-S-O I really don’t know how to define it. Amazing food, fantastic owners, I don’t know... just add 2/3 tables outside and you’ll win hands down. Try it, both gluten-free and not! You won't regret it. Go right away and no reservation is needed. It’s not a restaurant but street food. Just to give you an idea of how it works. Well done guys, really well done and I truly hope things go wonderfully for you.

super great!!!! highly recommended

Very kind staff and good food. It's a shame that the place is small and there is no bathroom. As for the food, there are enough options to choose from, and I recommend it to those who cannot eat GLUTEN, as everything is made of corn.
5
Everything is good. Very convenient, just a few steps from St. Peter's Square. An amazing gluten-free option!
5
One single word: FANTASTIC!! Everything, from the food to the owners, everything!! Absolutely not to be missed.

Fantastic! I am celiac and I fell in love with this place because it's a gluten-free paradise! All the flour used is corn-based, the products are excellent, fresh, and uniquely delicious. Super kind owners! A must-visit if you're in Rome.

Simply FABULOUS! Entirely gluten-free menu, delicious and high-quality food, very kind staff, and reasonable prices. What more could you ask for? We will definitely return!

We went to this place in search of something gluten-free and... surprise! The entire menu is gluten-free, featuring Venezuelan dishes that I had never tried, based on a bread made from gluten-free corn flour, meat (chicken or beef), cheese, and various toppings. Everything was delicious, especially the fried ripe plantain with cheese, a type of very sweet and soft potato. The place is informal, has a few seats inside at the counter, and also operates as take away. Definitely worth trying!
