I had a good experience with a waitress (Kay or Tay? Can't quite remember) she was extremely helpful! The gluten free menu is limited but at least there is one!

Meh. The gluten free menu has two pasta dishes with red sauce that sound pretty much identical. They were overcooked and mushy.

Our waiter, on the other hand, was awesome. He said "no croutons" before I even had a chance to when I ordered the salad.

I was disappointed with the staff's lack of knowledge. I didn't feel safe at all.

My experience tonight at Olive Garden was excellent. The waitress was knowledgeable about my options. Then the manager came over and acknowledged that I had requested for gluten-free options and insured me that they would change gloves to maximize safety. Then a third person came over to serve food and he pointed out that it was gluten-free and that they changed their gloves when making my food. I don't have allergies, but I am sensitive to gluten. I don't know if it would be safe for celiac, but it was safe for me.

I just went to Olive Garden, stated my allergy, and then ordered Gluten Free pasta option they have, if I dont remember wrong it was Gluten Free Rotini with meat sauce. I didn’t get any reaction, (I usually get respiratory and skin reaction to gluten) and it was absolutely delicious!!!

I have eaten here twice and both times it was great! The servers are knowledgeable and their menu has everything labeled well so you can see what you have to choose from! They also instantly knew and aknowledged no croutons on the salad as soon as I mentioned a gluten allergy. I do wish they had more sauce options than what was listed.
