Over 80% of the menu is or can be made GF. The fryer is 100% GF using only Bob’s Red Mill GF Flour that is seasoned in house. Almost all pastas can be substituted for the gluten free lentil penne they offer, which is delicious. GF pastas are always boiled in separate water from all other pastas. Gluten Free bread is available for an extra charge and is prepared and kept separate from the gluten bread that is traditionally served to tables. They have 2 GF Beers from Holidaily and 1 GF Cider. There is almost always at least 2 GF dessert options.

Finally tried for the first time. Staff took great care with dietary needs. Multiple GF option, AND for those vegetarians an entire page dedicated to vegan and vegetarian dish options. GF deserts as wells.

Amazing restaurant. Very knowledgeable on cross contamination. Had gluten free bread, apps, multiple main course options, and dessert! They had the best GF pasta I’ve had. No sickness after!

Has a great menu with gluten free items. Even had gluten free desserts, and the server was aware enough to use a fresh spatula when serving the different dishes.

Ate here with my celiac sister. They had gluten free options on everything but the ravioli. They even brought out gluten free bread for the appetizer! It was delicious.

Review
It was lovely! Since we got there early it was quiet, but soon got more customers. The new owner is very aware of GF and cross contact. There are lots of vegan offerings as well. The pasta is cooked in its own water and the bread is heated up away from regular bread. There were many options for me to choose from. I had the eggplant parmigiana with added sausage on the side and my husband had the chicken parmigiana. We also had GF bread, burrata appetizer, and creme brule as well as a peanut butter dessert. It was all so good!
