Olive Garden

The best summation I can give for the gluten free options here is "mehhhh". They only have 1 kind of gluten free pasta, a penne I believe, and it was very dry and bland. Their "gluten free menu" had nothing to write home about and only included a handful of items, such as the penne and salad.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I ordered a salad with no croutons and the dressing on the side. I explained that celiac disease and that I cannot have gluten which is wheat barley or rye. I also ordered the gluten-free rotini, gluten-free marinara sauce, and the shrimp. This was the create your own pasta. My waiter had celiac disease also. So this helped me too feel confident that he was knowledgeable on what I can and cannot eat and cross contact.

They accidentally mixed up my GF noodles with the regular noodles. I got really sick, although I noticed after a few bites. I won't be able to trust them again.

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!.

Ordered GF pasta with meat sauce. Ate half of it and found fettuccini pasta in my bowl. Said something to the waiter and didn’t even receive an apology nor did the manager come to the table. I was sick all night.
