Johnny Carino's

Only gluten free pasta available was spaghetti. Kinda sad about that, After reading other reviews. Fortunately for myself it's only a sensitivity not allergy. But heads up. Food was good. Service lacking. Maybe cause it a Monday night. Idk

Menu is not clearly marked on all GF options. I spoke to a manager who gave me confidence that they take good precautions to avoid cross contamination. When ordering, my server had no idea what contained gluten, he was unsure on meatballs and salad dressings and would say “I think” which doesn’t fly with a Celiac so I confirmed with a manager that what I got was safe to consume. (The meatballs do contain bread crumbs so don’t get them). I got the sizzler and it was VERY good, I was nervous that it wasn’t GF, I made my husband taste test against his and he couldn’t tell the difference in the GF noodles, the flavor was outstanding. I wish they had GF bread, even for a small fee, watching everyone else eat fresh bread before the meal was torture.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

4 Celiacs in my family. We go here about once monthly. Great options! Nobody has ever gotten sick. Dedicated kitchen space and utensils, pots and pans. So refreshing!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

not all servers understand what GF , but all were open to making your meal safe (: were here at least 1 a week. daughter loves the house made pizza in the fire brick oven. thanks, Carino's you make us smile

You'd never know you're eating GF at this place! They have some decent options for pasta, but their Alfredo isn't GF. Their house salad (minus croutons) is crave-worthy. They even had GF chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream last time I went. I never feel limited when I come here. Plenty of vegan & GF options, too!

We were surprised to find out they had a gluten free pizza! My husband love the pizza and salad. No cross contamination issues which was really nice to see.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I'm just excited to see they finally got a gluten free pasta! Do wish menu options were larger. :(

Way too expensive for what you're getting! But prices aren't listed on gluten free menu. Basically you can substitute pasta for veggies. The kids menu is grilled chicken and veggies. That's it. Not impressed!

Walked in the door and the manager said that they had gf noodles, but he had worked in food service since 1993 and had never heard of cross contamination or that gluten could be in sauces or spices etc. Used to go here a long time ago with no issues, not sure what happened to the staff training lately. Didn't stay due to the lack of knowledge.

They had a very nice gf menu with multiple choices. I opted for a shrimp scampi pasta dish using gf spaghetti. It was wonderful! My waitress was very knowledgeable about my needs, and seemed to communicate that well with the kitchen staff.

They don’t have gluten free menu however they are knowledgeable about gluten free dishes when requested and they have gluten free options

After returning though I don’t recommend the place. I asked for a new salad without croutons because of an allergy and they just took the croutons off with bread crumbs showing. Won’t be returning unfortunately since when they do make the food gluten free it tastes good. However I no longer trust that the food is indeed gluten-free
