🥲🥲🥲 This used to be our favorite GF restaurant but I’m sad to report I got horribly I’ll the last time we went. As with everything, you have to stress over and over that celiac disease is different and serious. So disappointing since this had been a trusted place.

Very pleased! Reviews were right - extremely safe and many options. I was traveling through so I just grabbed a quick burger (and it was delicious). I feel 100% comfortable with the safety for Celiacs

The host was great. The server was also great and knowledgeable about gluten free. The 4 of us were all able to eat and not have any worries of cross contamination. The food was outstanding, I definitely recommend this place.

I have been here several times and every single time, I am blown away! The food is phenomenal, the staff is stellar, service is always amazing and knowledgeable. There is always several desserts that are gluten free, Appetizers, and they will accommodate anything you want on the menu or specials to be GF for you. I have never had a bad meal here, and I have been so many times I have lost track! True culinary magic, one of my favorite restaurants in RI.

The food here was excellent. It was the first time I have had fish and chips in years! The food was flavorful and delicious. I even had dessert options that were gluten and dairy free. I will definitely be returning.

Staff understands gluten free. Many menu items are gluten free. I had a Vietnamese noodle dish that was great. My husband ordered a blueberry hand pie for dessert that we were able to share because it was also gluten free. They are knowledgeable, friendly, and made me feel like I was in good hands.

One of my favorite GF places to go with family and friends. Their pizza is amazing and I saw they recently had a GF tasting menu event that I was sorry I missed. Not only do they have gluten free options but it’s obvious someone put thought and effort into the GF choices. Some vegan-friendly options as well, if that’s your thing :)

I had the chicken piccata. It was so good. Great lemon flavor. The waiter was very familiar with GF and very assuring. For dessert I had the spiced chai gelato. YUM! Others in my party had ramen and another noodle dish and molten chocolate cake. Our new favorite place!

Very impressed that every item on the menu with the exception of 2 items can be made GF. Menu is very diverse and everyone at my table thought the food was tasty, including myself. Staff is well educated and took great care. If I'm ever in this area again will return!!!

Best gluten free breakfast selection I’ve ever seen. Staff is very educated from waiter to sous chef (a celiac) to the owner. My girlfriend is extremely sensitive to the slightest cross contamination and she had zero issues here. High quality delicious food, nice ambience, and great service. Can’t wait to have dinner there as well.

This is my favorite place! We go almost every Sunday for breakfast and have also been numerous times for dinner. The staff is awesome and basically everything on the menu is GF automatically because they use 1 to 1 flour. I believe even one of the chefs has celiac so they are extra cautious! I have been going here for years and it’s one of my favorite spots still!

They had so many gluten free option! Even all the specials were gluten free. When I asked for something that wasn't necessarily gluten free, they worked with me to ensure I got the best option. Also I think one or two desserts were not gluten free, which is amazing as I never get a good dessert.

Excellent restaurant for both regular and gluten free diners. My wife has celiac disease and had no problem finding something great to eat. She recommends the bbq chicken pizza, they have an excellent gluten free crust.

Staff was very knowledgeable. Food was delicious. Only like 4 items on the menu and a few desserts cannot be made gluten free. Everything else is or can be made gf. And they have a dedicated fryer. The chef came out to see us, assured us they take extra special care for celiacs and thanked us for dining with them.

Every meal I have here has always been fantastic. They are so accommodating of a gluten free diet. The staff is so knowledgeable and friendly. It is so nice to be able to order what everyone else is ordering. And it does have a dedicated fryer and uses only gluten free flour. 5 stars are not enough!

Most menu items are available for gluten free preparation so they just tell you what not to order -- three items on the whole lunch menu, last time we went. They have GF bread and panko, pasta, pizza, and they prepare gluten food separately. The eggplant pesto with GF linguine is to die for!

What a gem! 2/3rd of their wonderful menu can be made GF. The chef owner was gluten free for a number of years and has made some great changes to the menu. Separate fryer, and GF Pizza plus they are VERY aware of cross contamination. My sister and I have Celiac and we felt great after eating here. Chef Brandon came out a couple times to make sure we were enjoying our meal and took the time to discuss how he made things GF. Such a great restaurant!

the staff is knowledgeable about gf. the food is excellent and locally sourced and fresh. a hidden gem. I am unsure if they have dedicated kitchen space. I am at minimum highly sensitive(never tested for celiac but get deathly ill) and I've had no issues

This is not really a review (so I'm sorry) but I don't want people with Celiac reading these reviews regarding Gluten Free (GF) to be tricked. This is NOT a GF restaurant. There is a strong possibility of cross contamination and should be approached cautiously. I have no doubt this establishment is excellent and will succeed but people with Celiac are very different and some can become quite ill. Just wanted to make this point and wish you all the very best.

Fantastic service and delicious food. No GF menu, but everything is made from scratch, and they will customize anything they can to accommodate food allergies. I was very happy with my mushroom sandwich (without bread) and the hippie johnny cakes we had.

Truly a great eating experience, and I will definitely be going back for seconds!

This place is AWESOME. Everything is made to order so most of the menu can be made gluten free. The best meal? Fish and chips, battered with cornmeal. Or for breakfast (served only on Sundays), any of their omelets. It will not disappoint!
