Unfortunately, this restaurant is not one I can trust for a gluten free meal, even though they do offer gluten free options. I told the server that I am celiac, and she assured me that the gluten free pasta is prepared separately and not cross contaminated. This is the important part--the pasta they served me was NOT GLUTEN FREE! I thought it didn't look as described in the menu (for the gluten free pasta), so thank goodness I questioned it BEFORE I ate it! They gave me regular pasta. It would have sickened me for days if I had eaten it. Celiac disease is serious, and any amount of gluten can cause damage to the lining of your intestines, not to mention just the side effects for the days following. No apologies were offered by the server and our service was very poor overall. No checking on us, water refills, etc. I am leaving this review to encourage others with celiac or gluten sensitivity to be extra cautious. I will not return. In addition, our party of 4 was cold (we ate with our coats on), again, no one checked on us for anything, we were there for 2 hours, and everyone else felt that their food was underwhelming. There wasn't one thing about the experience that would encourage any of us to return.

I give this place 5 STARS because I'm gluten free (not by choice). Their Penne GF pasta can be subbed in for any noodle dish. And it is good! Penne. The white wine alfredo sauce is even better!! Tastes homemade, "notmal" and it is great bang for you buck! I do wish they had other styles of GF pasta, but beggars for pasta can't be choosers haha
