Review of La Tavola Restaurant and Bar

I spoke to them on the phone regarding our daughter having celiac disease. I was told all of their sauces are gluten free (in addition they have GF bread and GF pasta). When we walked in, the blonde hostess (same woman I talked to on the phone) was there, and I again, talked to her about my daughter’s needs. No problem. I also spoke to the server about it. They bring out my daughter’s clams. She eats two of them and then some guy comes over with another bowl of clams and says my daughter’s have gluten in them. Apparently they used flour in it even though their “sauces are all gluten free”. It was so disappointing. Then, they say they will take the clams off of the bill. They didn’t. We had to say something. No owner or manager came over or anything. Terribly disappointing. Would never eat here again.
