Ordered the gluten free pasta and got sick. The restaurant was understaffed and we waited over an hour for the food. The food came out mixed up which is a problem because only certain items were ordered gluten free.

They do not have a gluten free menu. Only have a pasta noodle. Everything that is on the pasta will have gluten.

sadly this place no longer has a gluten free menu. it used to have pretty extensive one. They have gluten free noodles and can make gluten free Alfredo and red sauce according to the staff members. as of right now I'm still waiting to make sure I don't have a reaction.

Lack of server training and communication with kitchen manager and servers caused them to give me meatballs on gf pasta. Two servers assured me the kitchen manager said the meatballs were gf. After I had a bite, my Aunt questioned how they keep them together without bread crumbs. There are gf bread crumbs, but I decided to double check. The server insisted the kitchen manager said they are gf. I asked him to find out how they were made. The manager came over apologized like crazy for the staff error. While the Penne was gf the meatballs were not! Needles to say I am having a Gluten attack! So mad! And I have to travel tomorrow! Not hard to get it right! TRAINING and Gf menu would help!

I went yesterday and asked about their gluten-free menu. The server told me they no longer have one, as they are making modifications. She also told me they no longer have gluten-free pizza crust. The only thing she knew was that they offer gluten-free penne.

Our server was attentive and provided great service! She assured me that items from the gluten free menu are prepared separately to avoid cross contamination. I ate the gluten free Chicken Alfredo Penne. It was delicious and I did NOT get sick!! :)

So many options and the food was delicious. I told them I was gluten-free and asked if I had an allergy. My plate was a different color than the others in my party, so I assume that was to signal to the kitchen to be careful. No complaints!

Server brought a gluten free menu with about 15 options. I ordered the rosemary lemon chicken. Our food came out very quickly. It was the best gluten free Italian meal I’ve eaten out to date. Prices were reasonable. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Hands down one of the best gluten free experiences I've had. The portions were HUGE. Our waitress seemed very knowledgeable about everything. There's a whole menu of just gluten free stuff. Plenty of options. Did I say the portions were huge? I swear my husband's leftovers weighed 40 pounds. Prices weren't bad either. Prices aren't on the menu but our meals were around $18. Highly recommend!!
