They do have gluten free pasta although it’s not listed, just call ahead!

The gluten free pesto flatbread was delicious! The limoncello kiss cocktail was alright. And my chicken Alfredo was a bit too peppery, but good. And the lavender cake was good too.

Staff was super helpful! My waiter Steve even let me know his girlfriend has celiac! So I felt super safe asking him questions and eating here.

A bit loud, busy. I would recommend a reservation, but the staff was so helpful to work with us to get a table.

The food took a bit long, but it was packed so understandable.

Overall, a good gluten free dinner!

We were given a dish that we were told was gluten free. The artichoke stuffed peppers. My celiac son took a few bites before I cut my pepper open, I looked at it and thought the “rice” looked funny. I asked the waitress to make sure it was not orzo. Turns out it was orzo and not a gluten free. They offered us a substitute, but we had to leave before my son got sick. Very unfortunate because the restaurant had been highly rated for GF safety.

Fantastic meal! They have gluten free pasta (although not listed anywhere on the menu). They used the GF flatbread dough to make us a dipping vehicle for bruschetta, and even had a flourless chocolate cake for dessert! Wonderful service. Very accommodating!

I ate here twice with no issues at all. They have gluten free pasta and can modify most dishes. Delicious food and very aware staff.

Other Characteristics

• Good for dinner
• Reservations recommended

The food is absolutely incredible! The only disappointing part of the whole experience is that I had the best GF chicken alfredo I've ever eaten and its all the way in St Thomas. The flatbread was also amazing! My husband enjoyed the GF vodka sauce. I cannot reccomend this place enough. Knowledgeable staff who take allergies seriously. I felt very comfortable and did not get sick. I would make a reservation in advance, I was glad we did because it was busy and a long wait (60 minutes) for walk up customers.

Homemade gluten free pasta and flatbread dough. The flatbread is advertised on the menu but call ahead to ask about pasta because they will prep a batch ahead of time for the night if they have reason to anticipate needing it but don’t always automatically have it on hand. I had the penne primavera with chicken which was outstanding. I did not get sick. Great find on St. Thomas which isn’t overly familiar with gluten sensitive needs. It’s affiliated with a couple of other restaurants that also have gluten free options; touted as the more gluten-friendly restaurants in St. Thomas. I only dropped one star because the server wasn’t very knowledgeable but he was obviously pretty new to the establishment so I have no doubt it will only get better from here!
