Terrible choices!!!!! Go elsewhere!!!

Very disappointed ... they handed me a crumpled up paper that had their GF menu. For an Italian restaurant they had one GF pasta option, which I did not try based on the reviews Ive read. I stuck to steak and veggies, which was horrible. I can find something almost anywhere I eat, but OG is off my list now ...

Celiac friendly?

No

Server is Amazing but the Gluten Free Pasta was hard and raw and not cooked properly.I found out that it was microwaved and thats how they cook the gluten free pasta. Whatever you do,dont order the gluten free pasta.

Celiac friendly?

No

Meh. Nice of them to add GF pasta option but they really need to lean to cook it properly!! I had to request they re-cook it twice because it honestly wasn't done. We're not talking al dente -- it was still hard! I suggested that the cooks should taste it for themselves and maybe practice making it a little more. I finally gave because I simply couldn't stay all night. Sad, sad excuse for GF. Definitely not at the top of my dining list.

Gluten free menu had to be dug up from the host stand and they weren't sure they had one. And then the salad I ordered was pitiful. Basically iceberg lettuce with parmesan cheese. And it was served when my husband's salad was and I had nothing else to eat while he had dinner. Needless to say I was starving the rest of our date night, but at least I didn't get sick (and I am very sensitive to cc). Not worth the money spent, but nice to know it was an option if family wants to go there. I will just also pack my own food to eat in addition.

rubbery pasta but at least they had an option my husband did not get sick salad was okay to ask for no croutonsthey could do a lot better for gluten free options go to biaggi's much better they really cater to gluten free people best pasta best bread best pizza never had a problem there

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.
