Review of Strada Italiano

Server was confident about gf , disclosed chef has celiac so we are “well taken care of.” My 2 children and I were underwhelmed with pasta and sauces. Gf Focaccia was dry and crumbly. My youngest forgot to order a meatball - we asked for it later. They served it next to my husband (not gf) and I questioned the food runner and waitress if it was gf safe - they both agreed it was. I felt weird about it but let her eat it. Needless to say that night she was sick 3 hours later - her typical symptoms for exposure - 2 hours of vomiting then she was completely fine. This is the first time in 6 years of celiac she has been sick from a restaurant. I know these reviews are great but as of any restaurant that is not completely gf this is not 100% safe either.
