Review of Ristorante Antipasti

I called ahead and was told they could accommodate gluten free and also had gf pasta and would be able to do most entrees gluten free. Upon arrival I asked about gf options and I was told none of the entrees could be made gluten free and when I asked they stated the gf pasta is cooked in same water as regular pasta. I asked if it could be made in separate water. The server was very sweet in having no problem in asking the chef and was great in identifying apps that were gluten free. The owner then did come out and told me there should be no problem cooking the gf pasta in same water since it gets to 200 degrees!!! I think him that is not gf and cross contamination is a big issue. He was actually annoyed by my answer and later I was told they could make it but it would be an extra 8.50 for the pasta on the side of a piece of plain grilled halibut. Never in over 13 years have I had a restaurant over charge such a ridiculous amount for a small side of gluten free pasta because they had to use a separate pot of water. I will never eat there again.
