They have a couple choices of cheesecake for celiac suffers. There are clearly marked choices of food options. The staff is knowledgeable.

I went several times and it was every thing ok, the food is excellent but I never ask for a gluten free cake.This last time I did and I regret, because the people who served the cakes they don’t know or don’t care about cross contamination because I got sick and I had a bad time. What I saw later was that they use the same pallet knife to serve a regular cheese cake and a gluten free cake. However, I will came back because the rest of the menu is well prepared.

Fortunate enough to have a server who was extra considerate. They brought it to our attention that even though the menu item is GF it is prepared in "shared" cookware/water! The Godiva flourless chocolate cake is delicious :)

Went for Sunday brunch and had an omelet. Not a large selection for breakfast but it was very good.

Huge gluten free menu...wish server knew about CD and cross-contamination. Ordered and brought out a salad with glutenous croutons. Had to send back. Then a new one came out and we found chips of nail polish in it!!!! Manager came out to investigate but this shouldn't happen...poor quality service and they weren't busy. When you get sick from gluten and explain to a server and they are still careless. Very sad!!!

Huge gluten-free menu, bigger than most restaurant's regular menus, including hamburger buns, pasta, and Godiva flourless chocolate cheesecake. Our new favorite gluten-free spot.

My daughter who has celiac told the waiter that she had a gluten allergy and would get very sick if he did not put the order in as gluten free. Waited over an hour for our food. The pasta she got looked gluten free but after 3 bites, she said it did not taste good. Within 15 minutes, she was sick in the bathroom. Told the waiter - did not seem to be concerned. Asked him to take the dish off of our bill and that did not seem to concern him either. Overall, do not eat here if you want gluten free food.

I let the server know I was gluten free - coeliac multiple times so she would get my order right and I confirmed with her again before my meals came out and she still gave me the gluten cheesecake instead of the gluten free one

I went here and ordered a gluten free burger and bun. The food came with a gluten bun. I sent it back as I noticed it wasn’t gluten free. I woke up sick as a dog for two days. If you’re sensitive don’t eat here. Even after the gluten free bun change I still got sick.

Was not bad but experience varies by server. We came twice as staying nearby... only on the 2nd visit did our server correct the misinformation from the first server.

There is NO dedicated fryer... it is shared oil. A lot of the staff are unclear of the difference
