They have one or 2 gf items and if u ask for gf they ask you if you are gf by health choice or personal choice. Waitress said if its health choice then a mgr will come talk to you and over see safety procedures as well as watch the preparation of your food...i thought was great but wouldn't trust it if I were health choice.

Decent meal with pasta and salad. Not the most knowledgeable waitress, but that may be a training issue. Will definitely visit Olive Garden again

They do have a GF menu. But it's VERY LIMITED. You can have the salad minus the crutons. It is an amazing salad. But salad alone? There are 2 pasta dishes with red sauce for like $13. Boring and kind of expensive of something I could do better at home. There was also a chicken or pork dish... I forget which one. It was like $15. Boring menu... It was truly the first restaurant that I knew I had celiac and I was being treated differently. I actually felt left out and slightly sad... I won't go back.

This is a go to spot. The Zappa soup is perfect. Salad is always nice. I do recommend checking the salad before eating something there is a crouton hiding. I unfortunately will feel that tiny cross contamination.

The server took our allergies (wheat, dairy, soy protein) very seriously. The kitchen manager came to the table without us asking him to and they made everything perfect. They also have a tablet you can search each item for allergies. Highly recommend! We ordered the gluten free rotini with meat sauce, an Italian sausage, and broccoli.
