GF menu. Read the menu carefully--there is a GF section, but other menu items might also be GF. For example, I asked if the tortellini were also GF (they were on the same menu page), but the waitress was unclear. I assume they are not--that the only GF pasta they have is spaghetti and penne, but that it can be paired with any sauce.

I asked if the cream and vodka sauces had flour added to them and she said, "no." So, I ordered the vodka sauce! I asked for a fresh pot of boiling water to be used for my noodles, stating I could not have cross contamination.

Since I'm asymptomatic celiac, I'll never truly know if it was cross contaminated, but I believe I was perfectly fine. This vodka sauce and GF noodles dinner was absolutely amazing!!! So very delicious. My husband and I will be stopping here almost every time we drive between San Antonio and Houston!

We almost missed the entry on this app even though we were only a couple minutes away. It was buried under many restaurants that had listings, but no ratings.

Delicious gluten free fettuccine Alfredo. The dinner salad with the balsamic vinaigrette dressing was good too.

Ate here on 11-16-17. It was a little difficult to find, because the street is only about 50 yards long behind Walgreens which faces Hwy. 249 aka Tomball Parkway. (Not their other location on Hwy. 290 at Jones Rd.) Do be persistent! The waiter was new and had no idea about gluten or Celiac, but extremely nice. Is free speaking to him, I nicely asked for the manager who came out immediately and put my mind at ease regarding what I could eat. Amazing Italian dishes with gluten free pasta! They have a dedicated prep area. Huge portions! Lovely place for nice lunch or dinner dates. Dean Martin or Frank Sinatra music playing in the background. Not too expensive. You will leave satisfied and full!

Hands down the best gluten free meal from a restaurant I've had in 4 years. And the rest of the party who didn't have to avoid gluten really liked their food as well.

My husband and I went there on Sunday. He had the salmon and I had the Alfredo pasta and added chicken. Both these off the Gluten Free Menu. My husband couldn't stop raving about the salmon. It was perfectly cooked and I enjoyed my pasta as well. We also ordered a side dish of spinach. It was sautéed perfectly in just the right amount of oil and garlic. This is our new fine and we love it!

They can make their entire pasta section (except for lasagna) gluten free. The food was delicious and this was the first time I could have a cream sauce I didn't make myself. The atmosphere was homey and welcoming. This is a hidden gem. I would only suggest bringing your own baguette (which they completely allow) because their dipping sauce is killer.
