Staff very helpful with the menu. The Antipasto and cured meats plates were Gf along with the pasta sauces with 3 varieties of GF pastas.

The Ragu sauce was very good.

Menu would be better if it was clearly marked GF so patrons don't have to ask. The only clearly marked items is the type of GF pasta. Entrees and sauces were not marked so you must ask. When it's busy it's noisy so can be hard to hear..

Best of all though - no reactions. Will definitely go back.

Wait staff very helpful and knowledgeable. Explained contamination risk on some dishes. Great choice of GF pasta options and most of entrees were GF and choice of desserts.

Have eaten here twice as a coeliac and have had no issue. I ordered the gluten free pasta with the basic red sauce, just to be extra safe as the sauces aren’t labelled clearly. Beware that they actually have pasta straws - so you need to make sure you don’t accidentally end up being given one of those to drink your drink from.
