Il Carrettino
About
Il Carrettino is a charming Sicilian‑inspired restaurant located in the historic heart of Grosseto, just a stone‑throw from the city centre. Head chef Andrea Greco brings together fresh, locally sourced ingredients with a bold commitment to gluten‑free cooking, ensuring every guest – whether they are celiac or simply choosing a cleaner diet – can indulge in hearty pizzas, classic Sicilian seafood dishes, and inventive vegetarian or vegan options. The menu highlights seasonal produce, from pepperoni and calabrian sausage to artisanal breads made with alternative flours such as teff, quinoa and buckwheat. In addition to the dine‑in experience, Il Carrettino offers a small pastry bar with freshly baked croissants, sweets and a curated selection of local bottarga and cured meats. Guests can also participate in cooking lessons with Chef Andrea, delivered through video or in‑person classes, allowing them to recreate gluten‑free dishes at home. The establishment prides itself on warm, friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere that makes families, couples and solo travellers feel at home. With a strong focus on sustainability – the restaurant is a member of the LAV (Legge Anti Vivisezione) and the VEG+ association – and a growing reputation as a vegan‑friendly bistro, Il Carrettino is a must‑visit for anyone exploring gluten‑free cuisine in Tuscany.
