Delicious. They just got new GF pasta that is amazing. Such a yummy meal! Server very conscientious and detailed about good dishes for Celiac. GF dishes prepared separately. Will go back to this restaurant.

An amazing experience. Very knowledgeable staff, confirmed they could cater to celiac when we arrived. My son ordered the bolognese as gluten free and the waiter noted allergy saying that would make sure there was no cross contamination. Ordered the sorbet for dessert and the waiter again added allergy without being asked.

I don’t know about the rest of the menu but the hazelnut torte desert was awesome! We stopped here for desert after a more disappointing set of tacos around the corner.

I feel safe eating here and do not get sick. They can make most of the menu GF, but you’ll have to do some mods to eat most/any of the apps or salads. A lot have breadcrumbs etc

The staff was very knowledgeable about Celiac and very careful about the chicken I added to the salad. The waiter was incredibly helpful. They offer gluten free pasta and pizza but I’d suggest asking more questions about how they prepare those.

I go to this restaurant often with my job and family and order the same safe meal. I always tell the waitress about my allergies. But this time I was glutened. Hoping this is an isolated incident because it’s one of my favorite places to eat. But also afraid to try it again because the pain isn’t worth it.

I had one of the best meals I’ve experienced since having to go GF! They have GF pasta and I honestly couldn’t tell the difference. Would recommend and would go again for sure.

Had options for GF pasta and pizza. There was 3 of us all that were gluten free with different sensitivities. By half way through I could tell it wasn’t gluten free and had issues. And by the time the other two got home they also had issues

Ordered a salad without bread as the GF options were only penne pasta and premade cauliflower crust pizza. Kale salad was good with salmon atop. Server was good to point out where cross contamination might be possibe.
