This place did not give me great confidence in ensuring I got a GF meal. The main menu has GF pasta listed as an option, making me think it's something that is ordered often. Our waitress came up and asked if we wanted to start with any appetizers. I asked if any of them were gluten free. She said the clams in garlic sauce were so we order that. It came to the table with two pieces of garlic bread on it. I said I couldn't eat it. She said I didn't have to eat the bread. She was very nice and polite just uneducated about GF. The chef kindly remade the appetizer. When ordering the main dish I wanted to know if there were any dishes I couldn't eat. The waitress asked "gluten is just wheat right?" then confirmed any of the pastas could be made GF (which I don't think was true). I ordered safe and got fettuccine with broccoli. They brought it out and confirmed multiple times that the pasta was boiled in separate water and is gluten free. The meal was delicious. I wouldn't recommend this place only because there was too much room for error with waiters/waitresses uneducated about GF.
