I ordered GF pasta and stated that I have a gluten allergy to the waitress. My bowl of GF pasta showed up with “normal” noodles mixed in too. I unfortunately didn’t find the noodles until it was too late and had already started eating. I would not eat here again, I am not sure I trust the staff to be educated in proper food prep.

I do not trust the staff to make gluten free products correctly. Been here with my family and have no faith the staff is trained properly or frankly cares if I get contamination or not.

I've been to other Olive Garden's that are of much higher quality and service.

Y’all, this location is above and beyond accommodating. The food is always delicious, and they go out of their way to make sure the salad dressing is sealed in case of cross-contamination at the salad prep station. The gluten free rotini with meat sauce and Italian sausage or chicken is delicious! They double-checked that the mints were gluten free, as well. I’ve never been glutened here!

I was pleased to see a gluten free menu. I was told that by ordering from the gf menu the kitchen would take all precautions necessary. My order of salmon, broccoli and salad was delicious and I had no reaction. The portions are large and I took a box home. The manager also came by to ask me how my gf experience was. I highly recommend Olive Garden in Palm Coast.

The staff was as accommodating as possible given the corporate limitations on handling guests with dietary restrictions. My server made sure to place a bowl of salad croutons on the table for the rest of our party so that the family-style salad bowl was not contaminated. Very limited menu offerings- really only one pasta shape and a choice of 3-4 sauces. It’s fine if a large group chooses it, at least there’s something safe, but it’s definitely not on my list of “regulars” because I’d die of menu boredom.
