I have celiac and have never had symptoms from eating there. The selections are limited for gluten free., but are getting better. I met girl friends there for lunch once. They didn't have some of the items I asked for, so I ordered substitutions. The other girls had $5-$6 lunches while I was charged $26!.

The pasta they use is the old rice flour type that smells bad and tastes gummy. I tried it anyway, and ended up having a strong and quick reaction. Nothing like scrambling for the Benadryl two bites in, and then being sick for days later.

My best guess is that they did not guard against cross contamination, since they were extremely poorly trained for gluten/wheat allergies. For example, they made me a fresh salad when I advised them of my allergy, but covered it in croutons. I will not be back.

Terrible. Ordered gluten free pasta and was served gluten free pasta with spaghetti noodles in the dish as well. Clearly no precautions were taken to not mix noodles. I did have an allergic reaction.
