My sister and I, who both are celiac, had a great experience here. They have plenty of gluten free options (pasta and pizza), and were very understanding when we asked about food preparation. Great food! I got the pesto pasta and my sister got the prawns scampi which we both enjoyed.

I have eaten here a couple of times. Staff is not always knowledgable. I have eaten there and been fine, but the last two times left me not feeling well, so I will not be returning.

I just wanted gluten free pasta, which they advertise. Waiter said they didn't have it, and could only substitute rice. No! They have items labeled gluten free on the menu. I chose one and he said oh that's not gluten free actually, it's labeled wrong. Come on! Won't be going back. My friend however enjoyed her gluten full fried calamari.

Minestrone soup was good, disappointed by the Alfredo. Might have been contaminated, I left sick after

At best, you're paying for the decor. Service is friendly, but cross contamination was likely an issue, as my wife isn't feeling well after eating there (celiac). Really can't recommend the joint to others.

Very accommodating staff! I was starving and had limited options with the food carts nearby on a Sunday evening. Staff were very informative about separating gluten free menu items from regular items. I had the pesto pine nut pasta with sausage. It was so good I had to ask and make sure they didn't make a mistake and give me the wrong pasta. No reaction at all and I will definitely go back!!

Fantastic food with great GF menu. Staff was very pleasant but would recommend calling ahead for a reservation especially on weekends. Recommend the pesto and add sausage (the sausage is GF!)
