The gf food was cooked separately, so no worries about cross contamination. Though be aware that they charge an additional $6-8 for just the gluten free pasta. (Hard to say with taxes what it was exactly) It wasn't mentioned to me by the waitress and as they don't have a physical gf menu there was no written warning. I was surprised when my bill was $10 more than what I expected. Felt a little deceptive.

I ordered the gf pesto Alfredo Gf pasta. My server confirmed with the chef that they cook the gf pasta in separate water to avoid cross contact. He answered all of my questions no problem!

Ordered a gluten free pizza to go. When I said I was celiac, the manager told me they take it very seriously, and they won’t even cut the pizza because it’s so hard to get those circle cutters completely clean in the middle of a dinner rush.
