Though it says “gluten free menu available” on the menu, I was told there this was not the case, but that GF pasta was available. I though the pasta was overcooked and over priced.

Great gluten free menu and definitely celiac friendly. I ordered a caprese appetizer and they knew to leave off the vinegar. I ordered the gluten free pasta, it was delicious. Will definitely come back.

They have a gluten-free menu with quite a few options, but the waiter made a comment about how the have a special kitchen protocol for people who *actually* have celiac disease, so I wonder how safe the kitchen really is. I didn't get sick, but I also ordered chicken and vegetables, so the risk of contamination was probably low to begin with.

They have a gf menu, and the food tasted okay. It made me sick. Walking out we noticed only one pot for pasta on stove. It's possible they boiled in the same water as regular pasta? Not sure, I'd ask if I ever go back.

Delicious!! Very accommodating for my celiac and many other allergies. Wait staff was knowledgable and offered excellent suggestions. They don't have gluten free bread available so I looked longingly at my husband and he ate his gluten filled bread dipped in oil. I will definitely be going back soon.

Well trained wait staff, GF menu, extremely knowledgeable about celiac disease--NOT what you'd expect to find at an Italian restaurant! If you have celiac disease, you can relax and enjoy a wonderful meal here. We love this place!

The reviews were very mixed but we went here based on the most recent great review. I would advise against going here. My son has celiac and I asked our server about cross contamination and boiling in the same water and all those questions. They delivered the food and said it was gluten free when it arrived and my son definitely got glutened.

First off the wait to even get our server to the table was extremely long. Our server was very rude and dismissive towards celiac and was not understanding. The pasta was SUPER good(a little too good for gluten free) i got the gluten free pasta with bolognese sauce. After not even 10 minutes my stomach started to hurt and now 2 hours later I have a heating pad on my stomach and can’t even walk. Great food but not great for da belly.
