Waitress hand marked GF options. seemed like it would be safe. AWFUL MISTAKE. Those who are gluten free by medical necessity i would steer clear of this place. Got awfully sick the next day. Fellow celiacs beware.

Hand-marked GF menu available. Most of their mains are pasta dishes and they do not have GF pasta, BUT I was told if I bring my own GF pasta the chef will make any of their pastas GF.

I emailed Giant to see if they could accommodate gluten free/celiac during pandemic. Josh, their GM, emailed me back, talked to the chef, and made sure everything was perfect. He even followed up after my meal. While they only had 4 menu options that could be gf, it was an amazing meal and more food than I needed.

Excellent small plates. Waiter went through menu with me about which dishes are GF/can be modified GF, which was almost half the menu. A gluten free dessert option would be nice though. Waiter asked if I had celiac disease (I’m not, just intolerant) and said he would alert the kitchen. The review below here is surprising, but the restaurant itself is small and so the kitchen is likely as well. Also there were several pasta dishes on the menu. I would confirm cross contamination practices with the kitchen if you are celiac. We look forward to returning.
