I specifically said to the waiter several times that I could not have gluten; even discussed the possibility of gluten in certain sauces. He said he wasn't very knowledge about the sauces, so I decided to stick with a gluten free pizza. It wasn't. The reaction was so bad I almost went to the hospital. I probably should have but didn't want to ruin my friends trip.

They are trained and have some nice options. Wish they would make a GF bread when everyone else is dipping....

The pasta was great... The only thing I was not happy about was the $2.75 up charge because of gluten free pasta. On a lunch special with barely half a cup of pasta.

Not too happy about that! But hey, the pasta was good. The fact that I just paid $11.75 for a lunch special because I have an intolerance really isn't cool.

I took the last reviewers advice and tried the spicy 3 cheese mac and cheese and it was fantastic! it was brought to my table with croutons on top, but they immediately fixed it and the manager came over to apologize and check if everything was okay once I had eaten. I was happy with a meal and very happy with service!

Ordered takeout. I like to order pastas that are distinctly different from the gluten free version to test the restaurants. In this case, I ordered a pasta that normally comes with fusilli and subbed gluten free penne. Cross contamination occurred because I found fusilli in my dish part way through.

I ordered a house salad and garlic shrimp on zucchini noodles. I Nima tested both dishes, and gluten was found in both. Fortunately, the waiter didn’t charge me for the meal.
