Review of Mandola's Italian Kitchen

Would not recommend this place to a Celiac. High risk of cross contamination. The gluten free pizza crust is cooked on the same surface as the other pizzas in a firebrick oven. After talking with the cashier, it sounded like I was safe to eat the pasta, and I was really excited to try the gluten free fettuccini. We sat at our table for about 10 minutes before a manager came over. He said the pasta was not safe for a Celiac since the pasta was cooked in the same water as the other pasta. He recommended a grilled chicken with veggies, which was honestly just so-so. The service was great, but I would not recommend this eating here if you’re really sensitive.
