Alaine's Osteria

Had a bad experience would not go back .. After waiting more than 30-40 min for my gluten free pasta with shrimp manager comes back to say they ran out of the pasta and if I'd like a salad or veggies with the shrimp, I said no I'd rather pasta or white rice with the shrimp she said they don't make rice there. So I said just bring me the shrimp and I'll make rice at the house. 20 min later she comes back with my food n tells me we found the pasta ..🤦‍♀ n they would not charge me for the wine I was drinking do to the inconvenience. So the little bit of pasta they found with 4-6 shrimps cost me $30. That's insane.

They don’t have a gluten free menu bc the majority of the food can be modified to be gluten free. Served warm gluten free Italian bread. We thought the gluten free noodles with the pink sauce was fantastic! They do warn you that some of the sauces may not be as thick because of the elimination of the flour but the food was delicious and very flavorful. I plan on becoming a regular!

After that visit we did become regulars and I’m very pleased with how much knowledge they have shown related to gluten allergies, cross contamination etc.

They are family owned and many of the staff are family members so they do have the knowledge. Due to Covid we have noticed changes in the wait staff so be specific about your allergy, but know that the people preparing the food (family-owners) will keep you safe.
