I have been here twice where the food was good and no reaction. Not so this last time. Brought the family, none of which liked their meal. Too much cheese and very heavy. This time I got sick. Even though they have gluten free options on the menu, I can now not recommend to anyone.

Well the regular food was decent but quite heavy. We waited a long time. Our celiac party liked their food but sadly went home and got sick. So I cannot recommend.

Very knowledgeable staff and they have many gluten free options including appetizers, entrees, paninis, salads, pizzas and pastas! The shrimp cocktail and fried calamari are really good. Also the pizza, meat sauce spaghetti were very tasty. My kids enjoyed their dishes.

Got the gluten free chicken parm. I had to ask if it was gf because it tasted like real homemade chicken parm. It was cut thin and you didn't even need a knife to cut it. There home made sauce is delicious. I will definitely be going back.

Food was delicious! Ordered gf chicken parm with gf pasta and gf pizza. They make gf food in separate area and use fresh pot of water for pasta but make sure to tell them you need this level of care.

When we sat down I asked for a gluten free menu and the server told me anything on the regular menu could be made gluten free. I didn't even know what to do with so many options! I ordered the chicken Parmesan and it was very good. It came with spaghetti that was average for gluten free pasta.

VERY good GF pizza by Still Riding. Large GF menu and owner seemed very knowledgeable and eager to please. He sent a worker to buy ice cream to sing Happy Birthday to my daughter. That's great service especially on a busy Saturday night.

I rarely review a restaurant on here BUT this has to be one of the best gluten free friendly restaurants I've been to. The staff is amazing and people are very aware of contamination.

I was glad they had gluten free pizza, cost is the same as everywhere else but I didnt enjoy the taste. They need to improve the crust; it was horrible.

This place is awesome! I have severe gluten allergies and this is one of the few places I can go eat and not get sick. The staff is knowledgable and very attentive. They have a wide variety of gluten free foods (rigatoni alla vodka is my favorite) and to date everything has been delicious. They even carry GF alcohol & desserts.

Decent gf pizza but a bit pricey. They assured me they make the pizza in the back so it seems that they are aware of cross contamination issues. They also have gf paninis and pasta dishes according to the menu but they don't specify which ones. I'd probably come back again to try the other menu items

Celiac review as I sit here: Chicken parm panini and meatballs were great! Pizza has a cauliflower crust and looked delicious. Staff was knowledgeable and explained all precautions. I would have been feeling it by now had there been cross contamination. Well done!

I ordered the gluten-free chicken and broccoli rabe panini without mozzarella (since I'm also lactose intolerant). I've had this twice at Frantoni's and did not get sick.

Great choice for celiac. Has a dedicated oven and kitchen space for prepping gf food. Has a great gf pizza and many options on their GF menu. My wife loves their Gf grilled chicken panini. It’s not often you can find a place willing to carry GF panini style bread
