GLUTENED!! I have Celiac and only decided to give this restaurant a try bc of the glowing reviews. I usually avoid all Italian restaurants for fear of cross contamination. I informed the server immediately of my allergy. I ordered the salmon daily special with lemon butter and crab topping. It came with mashed potatoes which I double checked to make extra sure were GF. I was told I was “golden”. The food was delicious, I must say, but in true glutened fashion, I was extremely sick 2 1/2-3 hrs after my dinner. I am extremely disappointed because my experience was very positive. Obviously, there was gluten in my food. Please be aware before dining.

Came here for dinner and was blown away by the quality of food and staff knowledge. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu items that could be modified as gluten free. Most menu items were able to be modified and it seemed like the staff understood cross contamination. The gluten free penne used was the best I have ever had as someone with celiacs for 10 years!! Truly recommend

Great experience and food was delicious! Gluten free items marked on the menu and most that are not, can be made gluten free. The waiter was very knowledgeable and offered to have calamari sautéed in a white sauce or tomato sauce so it could be gluten free. We had the veal scaloppine and it was excellent. This was our second time here and we will be returning.

Most entrees comprise gluten free ingredients and preparation but are finished with a demi glace that can be removed by request. Waiter was very knowledgeable. I didn’t ask about the kitchen since I am not too sensitive. Food in general is outstanding.
