Guest: My partner has a severe nut allergy. Are any of your pasta dishes completely nut-free?
NIVA TableBot: All our pasta dishes are prepared in a nut-aware kitchen. The Spaghetti Aglio e Olio, Cacio e Pepe, and Marinara are completely nut-free with no cross-contamination risk. The Pesto Linguine contains pine nuts and should be avoided. Shall I flag a severe nut allergy on your reservation?
