Although the gluten free pizza was good, even had crispy crust, the gluten free pasta dish we ordered (penne pasta with butter garlic sauce) was terrible. The garlic sauce was more of a greasy oil flavored with garlic, the penne was half hard and half cooked and all clumped together. Also ordered steak, medium rare, which costs same as off regular menu but doesn't include side of pasta as on regular menu because gf pasta is not provided as a side. Even worse, the steak was THE MOST TERRIBLE steak I've ever tried. It looked boiled and tasted disgusting. I don't know if it was old, rotten or extremely low grade beef. I rarely send plates back (partially because my spouse will eat what I don't like as a lunch the next day) but today we sent both the steak and penne pasta back. Didn't bother ordering anything more, just shared pizza and went home disappointed. Caution: if you order pizza beware that the meatball topping is not gf.

I had the pasta and it was good, but the service was absolutely terrible. Server wasn’t willing to listen or talk with me about gluten free options, and was missing for the majority of our dinner. Super disappointed.

A good selection of pastas, chicken and veal dishes, and pizza. We shared baked penne and a pizza which was more than enough for two people. Both were delicious. The pizza was crispy. Be aware that some pizza toppings (like meatballs) may contain gluten. The waitress could have used more training on this point, but she was a good server overall. We appreciated the half liter of house red wine for $10. Ask for the GF menu when you're seated. This restaurant is family-friendly and can be noisy.
