Even if it’s not nessesarily their nitch, These folks get G-Free & Celiac! And rarely are you going to find such care & consideration at such a classy atmosphere Restaraunt as this!
Dress up or casual… we saw the whole spectrum of customers here. Although, dressing up will really make a special night out here. Wonderful old time dinner music hits from the likes of Sinatra filled the low light pleasant & romantic venue.
Once advised of our issues, our waitress Sheena (who, by the way, is a 5-Star Rock Star of a Server!) had the Chef at our table side in minutes, advising us on their abilities & limitations. Way more selection than one might anticipate, although less than we had seen at their Orlando location last year.
The gluten free Panne as Alfredo w/Chicken breast added was exquisite in appearance and taste….even as a next day leftover!!!

Most pasta dishes can be made with gluten free penne noodles. I talked with the manager and he was very helpful in telling me they take celiac very seriously. Overall, the food was delicious and no reactions.

They have removed most of their gluten free items from the menu. Now the need to do special modifications to be gluten free.

This is the second time I have been there. The first time was after the restaurant had a display at a Gluten free expo. They had the chef come over to your table and go over all of the gf options. The food was delicious and we were delighted to be treated with such care.

Very accommodating. Chef comes out to take your order and make it special for you. I did take away a star because in my take home pasta I found a bunch of different noodles when the only GF noodles are Penne. This has me a little nervous

Chef comes out to speak with you. I have eaten here many times and have never gotten sick. Just wish they would add another gf dessert besides crem brule

I like Magginao's because it is a great option for gluten free pasta, which is penne. I do like that Maggiano's has one of its chefs come out to the table to take your order and discuss the menu with you if it is needed. This is done with any food allergies. Just make sure you make your server aware.
The amount of food, especially pasta, is enough for two meals, thus left overs might normally accompany you home. One of my go to dishes is the Chef KB's Lobster Carbonara. You do get a lot of lobster with this dish. Is it the best lobster that you can every have, no, but it accompanies the pasta well. While it isn't the best GF pasta, it isn't by far the worst I've ever had.
Chef came right out and told us how he would prepare our food. There is no gf menu. They tailor pretty much any meal to match your needs. This goes for any allergy. Wasn't a huge fan of the gf pasta though. This won't stop us from returning though. I will just try something without pasta.
Yes
Great attention to my needs as GF. Two different chefs came out to talk to me and made sure I got what I needed. Impressed with made-from-scratch food and service. Unfortunately, the GF garlic rolls are no longer offered.

They always make me feel like a queen, with special attention from the chef. Such great food, and they will work with you to make just about anything GF. Good kitchen practices to minimize cross contamination. Have heard they are also very accommodating about dairy free too.
Yes
Wonderful experience! The only pasta they have is penne, so if you aren't a fan of penne, don't get too excited. However, they have some other really great options! We ordered the GF garlic rolls and I had the veal parm. It was actually breaded with GF bread crumbs! Overall we were very pleased. The staff was knowledgable and helpful. We love to go to restaurants that know what they are doing!
The chef was very accommodating snd tbe pasta is wonderful!
Beautiful Italian restaurant. My server was very kind and knowledgeable about the Gluten Free options. They don’t have a separate menu or any indications of any dishes being GF on the menu so you rely on your server. She suggested I get the GF Taylor Street Baked Ziti and it was delicious! Definitely coming back here when I get the chance.

This restaurant is amazing and the servers are very professional. I had a work meeting here, and my boss asked for the gluten-free menu( I have Celiac) . They had a separate menu, and they cooked everything separate , with no cross contamination. The manager came and talked to me and read the gluten-free menu.. She was very smart and careful. The food was wonderful, and the cream brulee was so yummy. I didn't get sick at all. 🤩

While I have never gotten sick at Maggianos in the past my pasta has been undercooked, and they do not offer many gluten free options.

We love Maggianos! We eat there for all of our special occasions. The have penne pasta they can mix with almost any sauce. The Creme Brule is very good too. If you tell them you are gluten free the chef will also come out to the table and explain their safety precautions and answer any questions you might have. Definitely recommend.
