They offer gf items on the menu, but it's cooked in the same place as the non gf items. There are no safe food handling practices. The noodles are boiled in regular noodle water and good luck getting a salad that didn't have the croutons picked out. Even just sausage links in sauce isn't safe. I've tried it a couple times and gotten wicked sick each time. I've had to go for work events and I won't eat anything there any more, too much contamination because the employees don't care or understand celiac.

The food was great i ordered the gluten free rotini and it was okay but it wasnt hot and there wasnt enough sauce. i wanted dessert but they didnt have any
"gluten free" grilled salmon had no spices whatsoever and we were charged extra for it being gluten free. a little salt and pepper would have gone a long way.
This is my first time at Olive Garden since being diagnosed with Celiac Disease. I was greatly disappointed by their gluten free options! The only real option they have that they go out of their way to make is the GF penne. Other than that they have 2 GF sauces and a couple of meats that they would have either way as they use them for all of their other dishes. They basically just put the gluten free penne on there so they could say they have something. The dish itself was good but nothing out of this world. I will give them points for having SOMETHING on the menu to order. Again it was good but I would probably go somewhere else unless I had to.

They had one of the managers handle my food so he was only touching my gluten free food. Their pasta is great and they were so sweet to my bf and I! The same manager made my food separately so it was safe! I think this is a new policy they have :)

I normally wouldn’t go to a pasta place but it was my son’s birthday and it was his choice. Olive Garden does have a separate gluten free menu which is nice. While minimal, I found the rotini pasta with meat sauce and grilled chicken to be very tasty. Their Zuppa Toscano soup was also great tasting.
I’m sure there’s better pasta restaurant options but if you’re at Olive Garden there are tasty choices.

Listen, I do NOT get the gf pasta. Their options for sauces are pretty boring for the price. But I LOVE to do the endless soup and salad with the zuppa Toscana soup and ask for no croutons on the salad. I do make sure to tell them that I cannot eat the salad if they just pick the croutons off. They are always very accommodating. If a food runner brings out a salad with croutons, I just ask our server for a new one and it's never been a problem! I also love the Italian margarita!
