My son and daughter have celiac, both threw up a few hours after having their “ gluten free pancakes”. Their kitchen is way too small to proper handle gluten allergies.

Staff was very friendly and food was very good if you didn’t have an allergy. I will not be going back with my family

Review


It was horrible. I had to find food somewhere else. There was severe cross contamination. I found pieces of broccoli inside my gluten free pancake. They also don't use real syrup and couldn't tell me if it was gluten free. I tried the pancakes and they tasted barely edible and had a bad aftertaste. And the servers were not knowledgeable at all. They didn't wipe the table down when we sat down. They didn't get our drinks until after our food and then we had to ask for creamer and sugar for the coffee.

The whole menu is marked with gluten free and vegan options. Substitutes such as corn tortillas and vegan cheese & chorizo were available. There were many other options. The staff seemed knowledgeable. We were in and out quickly without being pressured to leave. There is a wide variety of beverages/shakes as well and coffee with alternative milk options. Overall positive experience.
