Since the new owners took over this restaurant has been horrible and the staff is now so rude. My family used to go here multiple times and week and we will never go back.

We have had great experiences in the past but our last visit may be our last. We paid for a cabana which was a very low, almost wicker table that we were not confident could be wiped down well. We ordered gf sweet potato fries and a kids burger. The burger came in a basket with a tiny sheet of paper that didn't cover all the food. So all the gf food could touch the table. The fries had bits of other fried food, presumably chicken tenders, in it. This was also our worst experience with the staff. Seemed annoyed at my questions and concern about cross contamination. Perhaps it's due to covid and most restaurants struggling to staff, but probably our last visit. We spent $100 and were highly unsatisfied.

It was reported to me when I ate there in September 2022 that they no longer have a dedicated gluten free fryer. There are other items you can get that are gluten free but anything fried is no longer safe.

I have eaten here several times and they have delicious food. We have dined in and gotten carry out. Our most recent visit we ate at the outdoor Lodge igloo dining. It was fun, great atmosphere, lighting and each igloo was heated. There was a short menu with available specials. Everything was marked GF or gluten free by request. On the weekends a expanded menu with brunch is available. Overall an amazing restaurant with good options.

A warm and welcoming atmosphere. Service was excellent. Fryer is not dedicated but there are plenty of gluten free options. Carmelized cauliflower salad, roasted corn and sautéed green beans my faves. Have gluten free beer and hard cider in addition to full bar. Highly recommend!

The acoustics and noise level were awful. Couldn't hear the person sitting right next to me. Had a lot going on that didn't really create an atmosphere. Gluten free options were good, but staff did not know much. Small plates and shareables were like elevated bar food. Their bourbon sauce was marked GF, and when I asked was told they use a bourbon that filters out the gluten through the process. Was told someone related to the owner has celiac's...

Owners and chef all take Celiac seriously. They don’t market as a GF place but most everything last night was. Dedicated fryer for housemade chips and fries. Very aware of cross contamination issues. Be sure to tell waitstaff you are Celiac. All batter last night was GF, made with flax flour instead of wheat but be sure to ask about the batter. The day before they had run out so they used wheat flour. Oil was changed in both fryers once they got the flax back in so no cross contamination. They have GF buns for burgers (and regular buns for those that can) but I had the pulled pork tostadas. Yum! Will definitely go back to try the burger! Fries were delicious!
