There is a dedicated GF menu however it has 3 things on it ; salmon, gf rotini and salad minus croutons. I got the rotini with meat sauce and the salad. It was not a horrible dinner. I was glad they had the rotini because it's nice to be able to eat pasta when at an Italian restaurant!

The GF pasta was atrocious! It was over-cooked, gummy, pasty, yuck. When I told the waiter how bad it was, he said that is what the GF pasta is like!!! I've been celiac for 12 yrs now and have never had such bad pasta!!! The one saving grace is that the salad was decent.

I asked for a waiter that was knowledgeable about gluten free. no luck, he could not answer any of my questions. so I ended up ordering a salad, no dressing. Not a good experience. Will not be going back.

Very small gluten-free menu so if given a choice, eat somewhere else. Staff is not understanding of being gluten-free.

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.
