Classy upscale Mediterranean fare right at Hilldale shopping center. They don’t have a ton of GF options but what they do have is fantastic. I love the angry shrimp spiedini and the golden beet salad. For brunch, try the eggs in purgatory which is flavorful and served with gf toast points.

Got very sick from the “gluten free” food. Told my waitress I had an allergy and I do not think this was communicated to the kitchen :(

Had an amazing experience here. Wait staff was extremely knowledgeable and made sure they announced what was gluten free. Small, but delicious menu with clearly marked items. Most of the pastas can be made with gluten free noodles and they assured me gloves and cookware was changed when serving a dish gluten free. Will definitely be back!
