They have one or 2 gf items and if u ask for gf they ask you if you are gf by health choice or personal choice. Waitress said if its health choice then a mgr will come talk to you and over see safety procedures as well as watch the preparation of your food...i thought was great but wouldn't trust it if I were health choice.
Decent meal with pasta and salad. Not the most knowledgeable waitress, but that may be a training issue. Will definitely visit Olive Garden again
They do have a GF menu. But it's VERY LIMITED. You can have the salad minus the crutons. It is an amazing salad. But salad alone? There are 2 pasta dishes with red sauce for like $13. Boring and kind of expensive of something I could do better at home. There was also a chicken or pork dish... I forget which one. It was like $15. Boring menu... It was truly the first restaurant that I knew I had celiac and I was being treated differently. I actually felt left out and slightly sad... I won't go back.
Delicious food at reasonable prices. Gluten free options are marked on the menu. A lot of the entrees can be substituted with gf pasta, or you can build your own pasta dish.
Gluten free pasta comes at no extra cost and is really delicious.
Staff is very aware and informed. Our waitress pointed out that the salad we got as a side had been made freshly to avoid any cross-contamination. I felt very safe.

I am gluten intolerant. Before ordering, I asked for a gluten free menu. I had already looked online to see what was offered, just wanted to see if anything new had been added. No actual menu (only online), but our waitress, Kelly, said she needed to get the manager to come speak with me. Afraid of possibly cross-contamination with the pasta dishes, I opted to be safe & ordered the 6 oz sirloin steak with broccoli, & the salad was served without croutons. Salad dressing was served in sealed individual cups. The steak was cooked perfectly & was one of the best steaks from a restaurant that I've had in a long time. I truly appreciated Kelly checking on me numberous times during our meal even though it was a very busy Saturday afternoon. Will definitely be dining there again.

AMAZING experience! They had all allergens listed on the ziosk. When I said I have celiac, they told the kitchen and all servers who would be attending to my table and everything was prepared separately to avoid any cross contamination. They even had separate servers bring out my food to avoid it.

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.
