Experience may depend on what server you have. My first time going, I had the grilled chicken marsala and the server made me feel very protected, went through the whole menu with me, and there were no issues. The second time, the server simply pointed to the diamond marks on the menu and said that those were gluten-free. Imagine my surprise then, when we ordered the carpaccio appetizer that had a diamond mark only to have it brought with five pieces of bread on top so I couldn't have any of it. When we pointed it out, the waitress made no effort to remedy the situation except to agree that the bread had gluten and so the appetizer was not safe for me despite the black diamond on the menu, but assured the rest of the non-gf table that they would love it. Therefore, I am deducting a star for employee educational issues. This time I had the chicken limone entree and it was delicious with no gluten issues. Also, the supporting waitstaff who brought it to me verbally confirmed that it was made gluten free. So while there were many items on the menu that could be made gf, my advice about this place is to clearly communicate regarding gluten issues while ordering.
