Overall an EXCEPTIONAL experience! The moment I walked in the ambience in the atmosphere was very inviting, the hostess sat us with enthusiasm and such positivity we already felt like the night had gone our way.

Then Hailey came to our table to wait in us… Hailey is an exceptional person who has grace, poise and very deliberate eye contact and respect. She was such a pleasure to have wait on us.

The 4 of us sat and marveled in her exceptional service. We are business owners who spend our days hiring, training and managing employees- and all we could say when we left was “wow, tonight was exceptional!”

The food was delicious, and the gluten free options were safe! I was in Heaven for a dinner ❤

The GF pasta is not made fresh as was in another review, just a box of penne. Had the pasta primavera. They were able to make it vegan with I think garlic olive oil, but it was hard to taste any garlic, I had to add salt and pepper for some flavor, in addition, 4 grape tomatoes, a small handful of spinach and a sprinkle of zucchini, certainly not a vegetable filled pasta primavera that I have had elsewhere. I will not return. Spend your money elsewhere.

Waiter was not very informative of gluten free options other than they had gluten free pasta. We requested more information, there are appetizers options as well. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is that the waiter brought out a antipasta tray - that we were told was gluten free - with bread on it. The gluten free pasta itself was great as was the artichoke appetizer.

Server was very helpful. Owner who has a good friend with Celiac also came over to personally meet with us and review menu options. GF pasta made daily

All of our family members (both GF and regular) were very happy with their meals. This includes a celiac 12 yo and his 10 yo brother

Fantastic gluten free experience! The offer gluten-free pasta with their sauces being gluten-free, as well as gluten free rissoto! They are careful to prevent Cross contamination with items containing gluten.

I had the gluten free pesce angelica, which is the catch of the day (sword fish) rissoto with squash, zucchini and carrots. my dining companion had the swordfish with gluten free cauliflower rissoto with walnut relish and grilled green onions. we split the gluten free pasta with pomodoro sauce sprinkled with parmesan as a side dish. Dessert is the gluten free chocolate torte. very tasty!
