Having celiac disease AND trying to eat Italian food is always difficult. Upon visiting this restaurant, I was very pleased to hear that the waitstaff understood what was gluten-free and what was not. I ordered the gluten-free pasta with chicken and shrimp, in a sun-dried tomato creamy Alfredo sauce. The creamy sauce was perfection. No weird textures, well salted, very flavorful. The sun-dried tomatoes were pleasantly sweet and added an extra level of dimensional flavor. The chicken was still tender and moist, easily cut with my fork. Lastly, the gluten-free pasta was not crunchy but cooked to perfection.It was so delicious that I was almost afraid to eat it. Fast forward 48 hours, I still had no glutening symptoms. I am so happy to find a local restaurant that serves amazing food. Can't wait to go back!!!
