Review of Olive Garden

DO NOT EAT HERE! Waitress seemed to scoff at my request to denote an allergy and inform kitchen staff, so I asked to speak to a manager. A kitchen employee (I assume a manager) came out and I asked them to take precautions and wash the GF utensils. He said they would. A couple hours later the symptoms hit: this is the worst glutening I have had in a long time--this is full range of symptoms. Much more than a bit of flour dust settled on my plate. We called to inform the manager that it seemed the staff had blatantly disregarded my food allergy. She said that policy for a gluten free order is to inform a house manager, who then comes to the table, oversees the cooking, and brings plate out his or herself. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN, nor has it ever happened at an Olive Garden. Not safe and total discrimination against my illness by the waitress.

Celiac friendly?
