It seems my experience here does not line up with previous reviewers. I do not think our waiter was careful at all. We ordered the prosciutto service and he knew o had a gluten allergy. They served the sides with the prosciutto (olives, anchovy, cheese and peppers) on a separate plate but it has gluten breadsticks resting on top of these. Thank goodness my husband asked if they were gluten free breadsticks or not. From there it just goes downhill. I had the chicken parm which was coated in rice flour - it comes with a side of gluten free pasta. I asked to have a different side instead and I was told no they can’t do that which wasn’t a huge deal but not very accommodating. Then when it came time for dessert our waiter was pointing out gluten free desserts and there was a budino and an ice cream - he then pointed out if I wanted to live on the edge I could have the cheesecake and eat around the crust. This was not a funny joke. It does not seem as though they are careful about gluten free. I did not feel confident my dinner was gluten free but I don’t feel sick yet..
