Olive Garden

I stick to the one gluten free soup. It really tasty and since it’s bottomless I do feel full. I have celiac and I’m the soup and salad with no croutons didn’t make me sick. Very limited options but when you know that going in it’s not too bad. Stay away from the gf pasta.

The experience here was horrible! We ordered the gluten-free chicken Parmesan, they brought us fried chicken with gluten-free noodles first big mistake. We re-ordered the food only to receive gluten-free noodles that were mixed with regular noodles so obviously they use the same pot and utensils and boiling water. We then called the manager to the table I told her how dangerous their practices were and they shouldn’t have a gluten-free menu if they’re not gonna take it seriously. She gave me my meal for free which wasn’t when I was trying to accomplish. I was with a group of 25 people and all of them saw the waiter roll her eyes at me when I brought this to her attention. This is my third terrible experience with Olive Garden and I won’t be returning ever again.

Never again!

I explained to the waitress I was gluten intolerant and please no croutons in the salad. Salad came out with a few croutons at the bottom. So I asked for a new bowl with no croutons.

Celiac friendly?

No

I had the pasta with red sauce. I have celiac and didn't get sick but did take Glutenease digestive supplement in case of cross contamination. I like La Villa better. More choices.

Celiac friendly?

No

Extremely limited options.

Very limited menu - 1 type of pasta with 1 type of sauce. Pasta was underdone. The server was wonderful

My experience tonight at Olive Garden was excellent. The waitress was knowledgeable about my options. Then the manager came over and acknowledged that I had requested for gluten-free options and insured me that they would change gloves to maximize safety. Then a third person came over to serve food and he pointed out that it was gluten-free and that they changed their gloves when making my food. I don't have allergies, but I am sensitive to gluten. I don't know if it would be safe for celiac, but it was safe for me.

I just went to Olive Garden, stated my allergy, and then ordered Gluten Free pasta option they have, if I dont remember wrong it was Gluten Free Rotini with meat sauce. I didn’t get any reaction, (I usually get respiratory and skin reaction to gluten) and it was absolutely delicious!!!

I have eaten here twice and both times it was great! The servers are knowledgeable and their menu has everything labeled well so you can see what you have to choose from! They also instantly knew and aknowledged no croutons on the salad as soon as I mentioned a gluten allergy. I do wish they had more sauce options than what was listed.
