Review of Ombra Cucina Italiana

GLUTENED!! I have Celiac and only decided to give this restaurant a try bc of the glowing reviews. I usually avoid all Italian restaurants for fear of cross contamination. I informed the server immediately of my allergy. I ordered the salmon daily special with lemon butter and crab topping. It came with mashed potatoes which I double checked to make extra sure were GF. I was told I was “golden”. The food was delicious, I must say, but in true glutened fashion, I was extremely sick 2 1/2-3 hrs after my dinner. I am extremely disappointed because my experience was very positive. Obviously, there was gluten in my food. Please be aware before dining.
