On their website the Olive Garden provides "Garden Fare Options">"Gluten Free". This includes two salads and four main dishes. The list is also available at each restaurant upon request.

"I think it all depends on which Olive Garden you patronize. The one in
Southeast Houston off the Gulf Fwy on the northbound feeder road is
fabulous. I have eaten there more than a dozen times now with no ill
effects, and I am ultra sensitive. This is a very busy location too and I
have gone there during their busy lunch and busy supper times. We have an
ever growing gluten intolerant population here in Houston and this
particular Olive Garden happily meets our needs with a smile and the GF menu
is readily available at the Hostess station. Again, the pasta was cooked to
perfection as well."

"They may be on some list as having gluten-free options, but, at my local
(Okla.) that is all a joke.
We recently went in and saw a gluten-free menu. Needless to day we were
thrilled. When we tried to order we were informed they did not have the
gf pasta and that most of the items on the gf menu were discontinued as
well. Why would you claim to offer a gf menu and then not have anything
listed on it available?!!! The only things we were able to eat was the
salad w/out croutons, period.
Shame on Olive Garden for misleading advertising! And none of the staff
had a clue, our poor waitress tried to be helpful, but, she didn't know
either.
Maybe someone else has had success with their so-called gf menu, but our
Olive Garden is a very deceitful establishment."

"
We just started going back to Olive Garden here in Indianapolis. Our store was a test kitchen for the new gluten free menu. My daughter soooo loves going and actually having pasta with us. She has been twice so far and no reactions. When I called the first time the manager said alllll the right things to answer my questions. I was impressed and so far so good.!"
