SO good. Had the chicken parm (grilled chicken). It came with gluten free noodles and sauce
Don’t go here if you have a gluten intolerantes or a celiac
I have celiac, but have been here twice. The menu is limited, but I have never gotten sick. The wait staff has always been very understanding and helpful.

I am celiac. I told waiter I was allergic to gluten and sensitive to cross-contact. I had salmon and broccoli. The manager brought out my dish. The server brought the remaining dishes for my companions who had no food allergies.
I didn’t have the greatest experience at Olive Garden. A manager came out and told me he would make sure my food was safely made and far away from any gluten. When my meal came out, gluten free noodles were mixed in with my meal. The manager apologized and gave us our meal for free but I was unimpressed with the fact that he promised there would be no cross contamination and there indeed was.
On top of that there are very limited gluten free options and none of them tasted very good or fresh.
After I told the hostess that I had celiac disease they gave our group a server that was experienced with celiac disease. She assured me that the kitchen staff was aware and told me that they wanted my experience there to be good and that I am satisfied with everything. I was very impressed and the food was great!! I highly recommend Olive Garden
They boil gluten free pasta with gluten containing pasta.
I called them to ask if they cook the GF noodles in the same water, lady on the phone said “we don’t not cook them in the same water to avoid cross contamination” we ordered it even said on the packaged food to use clean gloves and utensils then my mother found a Linguine noodle in her gluten free pasta
