I don’t think many if any measures were taken to prevent cross-contamination. The pasta in general wasn’t good and my loved one is having a reaction. It should’ve been obvious from the moment we walked in and the place was basically empty on a Friday night of Labor Day weekend. Now we know why.

Safe and delicious! Staff reassured me when I asked for it and the food was so good myself and my gluten eating friends still think about this place! Would absolutely recommend and return!

Waitress was extremely knowledgeable, very accommodating and let us know that they use not only a different pot and utensils but even a separate burner. Definitely rich food but no gluten reactions

Oh man, I had such high expectations since reading these reviews and I was not impressed. 1st. The whole experience was ruined because the gluten-free pasta is awful. There are so many more things available now than brown rice pasta. If you want something on the healthy side, try a quinoa or even a chickpea pasta and it would have been so much better. The brown rice pasta consistency was chewy and paste-like, yet fell apart like an over-cooked noodle. #2 The pasta sauce was ok, but I kept getting big bites of wine-soaked something- making the wine-sauce overpowering. #3 The shrimp was cooked very delicately and was delicious- but I ordered a chicken dish. #4 my soda was flat

If I come back again, it will be to try a desert or chips and salsa.

I want everyone to succeed, so please don’t hate. Lemme know if you decide to change something ✌🏻

All pastas are able to be GF and most items are able to be vegan or vegetarian as well. Safe appetizers, entrees and desserts were listed. The primavera, seafood marinara, and Rasta sundae were all fabulous!

Almost everything could be made gluten free. Best pasta I have had in a long time.

Been here multiple times. A bit pricey for portion size but food is tasty and staff is friendly. Had the zucchini noodles and felt plenty full still.

A couple options on their menu can be made GF with brown rice penne noodles or with zucchini Zoodles. I’ve safely eaten the lunch sized Primavera pasta dish with the rice pasta a couple of times. Double check that they’ve given you the correct pasta;’it will be the penne noodle. Not really a fan of the GF up charge in addition to no replacement option for the garlic bread side but overall it’s not an expensive place to eat.

Tasted like corn pasta 🤢 with cheap Contadina sauce and jerk seasoning thrown on top. 🤢
