My friend and I ordered the gf rotini with marinara, but we both found spaghetti noodles in our dishes and got sick. I informed the waitress so hopefully they do better in the future, but I would never recommend eating here if you’re celiac.

Not very many options. One soup, one pasta with one sauce, and the salad without croutons is all they have to offer. Always loved the olive garden before being GF, and was happy with the GF choices even though there's not very many.

Very limited menu! The waiter was great and seemed to be educated on what GF food needed to be. He was careful to make sure they didn't add anything that might cross contaminant, like croutons to the salad. My 27yr. old daughter is Gluten intolerant and tried the pasta at the olive garden in Orem Utah and said it was awful!!! doesn't look good for Olive Garden when it comes to choice and taste!

Definitely would not recommend. I went here at the request of some older family members while visiting from out of town. I ordered the grilled chicken Parmesan, two managers came out to talk to me to insure my meal would be gluten free. It came out with Fried chicken. After telling management, they lied and said it was "just how it's prepared, but definitely gluten free." Needless to say, my body has assured me otherwise and I will spend who knows how long paying for it.

I had a wonderful experience dining at Olive Garden. I told the server I have celiac disease and asked what gluten-free options were available; she pulled up a gluten-free menu on the table kiosk. Two minutes later, the manager, Kayne, came to the table to assure me they take celiac very seriously and told me they guard against cross contamination. My salad was served without croutons, and I was given a sealed single serving of Italian dressing. Both the server and the manager were incredibly nice and I will definitely return.

When I asked my waitress about what precautions they take for a celiac disease order she brought out the manager who explained everything step-by-step, and all the precautions they take, the menu definitely has expanded so there are more options. My food was delicious. I did not get sick. Everyone was very kind and patient and knew, what to do with celiac order!

They have gf options! Remind the waiter of the need to avoid cross contamination. I’ve eaten here twice with no problems.

Horrible. I ordered zoupa and gf rotini with Italian sausage. Half way through my meal my stomach started to rumble and I knew I was glutened. Our waitress knew nothing about their gf options and when questioned about the bill which did not have my meal marked as gf (which sent me into a panic attack) she said she was told all their noodles were gf. After speaking with the manager he assured me he personally made my meal with gf noodles and in a separate pan. However, I’ve been horribly sick and won’t be returning. Service in general was bad as well. It took over 15 minutes just to get drinks. Our soups came out before our drinks did. I also never was given or offered a refill after. We were there for 1.5 hrs and all we ordered were 3 plates of pasta and 1 kids pizza.
