Had a great meal-shrimp cocktail, scallop and sweet pea risotto and a raspberry/chocolate cheesecake for dessert! Waiter was very knowledgeable and helpful in suggesting things. Items marked clearly on menu also.

This restaurant used to be fantastic. The service and the food have diminished over time, despite the price point. It used to be a refined restaurant ; now it feels like they’re trying to turn tables in a diner. After our last visit, we won’t be returning. However, I do believe it is safe. I have never gotten sick after eating there.

The staff was very informative and reassuring. I went there twice for lunch and got the Cobb salad which was amazing. Both times I left and felt fine all day. The waiter even came back to our table and told me the chef caught a cross contamination issue with the bacon (which sometimes they fry) and we got a new order without. Very celiac friendly.

There was only a handful of selections that were gluten free. Took an hour to get food. Had the filet that had no flavor, but others loved their snow crab legs.

This is a tough place to review for someone who has to eat gluten free. The meal started with cheese & crackers which were not gluten free. Then there was a basket of bread, also not gluten free and no gluten free alternative is provided. I ordered the $39 scallops (4) with risotto (tiny portion) which was good and gluten free as I had no negative reaction which is so important to me. However, I left the restaurant hungry. They also served pineapple with chocolate on it after the meal but this was also not gluten free.

Separate gf menu, a little more limited but still enough to choose from. Had excellent triple tail fish. Waiter double checked on gf status of sauce. Shared fryer, so no deep fried anything but that is OK.

Everyone was very helpful in selecting gluten free options. I chose fresh lemon grilled grouper. The lemons were grilled on top of the fish. It was excellent. Served with red skinned potatoes and summer squash. The coffee was great too. It was mine and my son's birthday so the waiter surprised us with a wonderful chocolate desert and a scoop of ice cream, all gluten free. What a great dinner experience!
