They have gluten free options marked but we had to ask for everything that would be dairy free. The waiter wasn’t that knowledgeable but when asked him to ask the chef, he did so. They asked the chef and he seemed very knowledgeable and just replaced items to accommodate us. We are highly sensitive to gluten/dairy free with celiac. The gluten free pasta was delicious! And cooked perfectly.

We had a nice time here. The wait staff was accommodating of our request that the food be free of cross contamination.

Loved it! Great Italian restaurant with an extensive gluten free menu (including chicken Marsala and fettuccini Alfredo). The manager told me the owner has a relative with Celiac disease and strives to provide GF diners with a wide range of choices. The pasta dish was great and no health issues followed. Going back for lunch today.

I have eaten here twice in the past month, there is only one item indicated it is gluten free, a Flatbread Primavera (they also offer gluten free noodles but none of their sauces are listed as gluten free) Today when I ordered the Primavera they fried the Spinach on top of it in a shared fryer and I only found out after I took a bite. Just be careful eating here.

I’ve eaten here numerous times. Lots of good options. Items are marked and most waitstaff knowledgeable about what they can serve/modify. The food is tasty and I don’t feel like I’m missing out. They’ve even served the pasta dishes over risotto for me before since I’m not a big fan of gluten-free pasta. I’ve not gotten sick here from cross contamination.

I have been to this restaurant twice and enjoyed spaghetti bolognese with gluten free noodles and have had no issues. They have other gf options including a chocolate lava cake that is delicious. The staff is very helpful and willing to listen to your needs. It has been hard for me to find Italian food other than gf pizzas so this restaurant I highly recommend.
