Ordered gluten free pasta and there where wheat spaghetti noodles all throughout the gf pasta, instantly made my day a million times worse. Spoke to the manger for an hour and she explained they had a strict policy with cross contamination, etc. then went on and on for an hour trying to find the worker who made it but never could, never got my money back and was out 22$ if u have an wheat allergy please don’t eat here :)

Having a severe allergy to gluten I have always been extremely careful where I ate. When I called the Olive Garden in Jonesboro I asked them if there was any chance of cross contamination, they told me no and told me they took that extremely serious. Five mins after starting to eat my gluten free dish I started having seizures. Come to find out they cooked the gluten free pasta in the same water as the wheat pasta! I would give 0 stars if possible. The one in Little Rock was amazing I had no problems with the EXACT same dish only four days prior to eating in Jonesboro. So if you have any sensitivity to gluten DO NOT eat at OG in Jonesboro!

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.
