Food tasted good and came with a wooden tag for allergens. Lots of GF options however I don’t think any of them are safe. Questioned whether the food I got was GF.. and I should have trusted my gut - felt sick afterwards and all morning the next day, haven’t felt that sick in a LONG time. Definitely not celiac safe, go somewhere else more allergen friendly! Leftovers are all in the trash!

We went for a birthday dinner last week. I called the restaurant before to discuss protocol. I went in and immediately told them my son had celiac disease. My son ate gluten free breaded chicken and French fries. I was told that they were safe, and that they had a separate fryer for fried gluten free items. The plate was delivered separate from the group and labeled gluten free. About an hour after eating my son was violently vomiting in the car. When I called the restaurant to ask about our experience, they told me it couldn’t have been them. They told me that they would call back to check on my son in the morning to see if it was possibly a stomach bug. They never called and it wasn’t a stomach bug. I don’t recommend going here. I don’t believe that they were concerned about my sons healthy and safety.

I came here after a recent celiac diagnosis after seeing their dedicated gf menu online and had a fantastic experience. Service was considerate and very accommodating, separate bread was brought out and all appetizers and dishes were clearly marked as gluten free. I had gf carbonara and it was delicious, I’ll definitely be back.

Large gluten free menu. Server was friendly and accommodating. Even brought out some gluten free bread. All gluten free items came out tagged with an allergy flag, so that provided additional peace of mind. Gluten free pasta was delicious.

Was always a safe place and ate here for years with complete confidence. Something has changed and it appears the staff both front of house to back are not trained properly or just don’t care. When meal arrived, I questioned that it was gluten free. Confirmed by 2 employees that it was- it was not. Spent the overnight violently ill. Contacted the manager next day who was lovely and said there was a “mix up” and someone would get back to me regarding my experience- that never happened. Didn’t want the gift certificate that was offered for “my inconvenience”, but rather a resolution on how this was being addressed so it didn’t happen to someone else. A week later I placed a second call to the same manager who was surprised that no one had responded to me and assured me senior management would be contacting me- 2 weeks later, it has never happened…. Can only assume that gluten free/ celiac diners are not a priority… truly sad how this was handled.

Large gluten free menu. Seemed as though waitress was not very knowledgeable on protocols. My body tells me this lead to cross contamination.

I did not eat pasta, but the GF menu is extensive and includes many pasta options. The gf rolls they brought out for me were flaky and warm and delicious. I had three side plates that were all excellent and I was happy to see three gf dessert options (the chocolate cake with vanilla gelato was amazing!) Can’t wait to go back!

This restaurant was one of the most celiac-friendly places I have eaten at ever! We made a reservation with a note saying I would need gluten free food and they were completely prepared. The food was amazing. I was especially impressed when the waitress asked the table next to us if their request for no cheese on was a preference or allergy since other parts of the dish had dairy it in. This really showed me that they were very conscious about intolerances/allergies, going above and beyond.
