The waiter told me they do not cater to gluten free at all. Said there was nothing there safe to eat. With having Celiac, the cross contamination would be am issue.

we walked out of this restaurant. they expected the customer to order spinach or potatoes to replace pasta to make menu items gluten free I no pasta. this is not Italian.
Excellent Chicken Marsala. Got the lunch portion with GF pasta, had to double check the pasta was GF because of the texture. Best we've had in a long time!
I'm giving Carinos three stars because they are trying. but if you are celiac, beware. the gluten free pasta is not cooked and drained in dedicated gluten free pans. cross contamination is a deal killer. they do have a gluten free menu, so there are other choices. ordered Italian chili. it was good, filling, and came with free refills.
No
I was very impressed. First restaurant I had eaten at since diagnosis of celiac disease a year ago. There is a gluten free menu, and it is NOT just salad. I had a wonderful chicken dish with roast read potatoes and veggies. Tasted amazing. I let my waitress know I had celiac, she relayed to chef and he did an amazing job of providing me a safe dish. I will definitely go back. So happy to have gone to a restaurant and not gotten sick. I highly recommend this restaurant. Btw, I went during slow hours as I felt safer that way. Less anxiety and knowing the staff would have time to accommodate.
Yes
Gluten Free is very deceiving. No gluten free pastas. The only things gluten free are some salads and chicken entrees, minus the pasta. No good if you are strict GF or vegetarian.
Excellent experience. I had a very knowledgeable and polite staff named Maria. I ate with a group and they brought my food separately. They also communicated to me that they would cook my pasta separately due to my allergy. They had great communication between the waitstaff and the servers. Generous portions and some more unique options than chain Italian style places. I had the artichoke pasta and it was excellent.

I ordered the gluten free pasta with spicy marinara. I was assured they take every precaution to avoid cross contamination. When I received my meal, there was regular spaghetti mixed into the bottom of my noodles. Unfortunately I had already taken three bites before I saw them. Definitely do not recommend if you have Celiac or a wheat allergy. Their "precautions" clearly didn't do much

So many options and the food was delicious. I told them I was gluten-free and asked if I had an allergy. My plate was a different color than the others in my party, so I assume that was to signal to the kitchen to be careful. No complaints!

Server brought a gluten free menu with about 15 options. I ordered the rosemary lemon chicken. Our food came out very quickly. It was the best gluten free Italian meal I’ve eaten out to date. Prices were reasonable. I highly recommend this restaurant.
