Review of Elizabeth's Bar & Restaurant

The food here is excellent and there are many gluten free options, almost the entire menu. However, the hostess was so rude i am not sure I will ever return. I came in for lunch and was seated by the host. She immediately returned with a basket of bread. I asked if I could please have some gluten free bread that I heard they serve. She rudely said I should have told her I was dining gluten free before I sat down because now she wasted a whole basket of regular bread. I told her my mom would be having the regular bread and she responded that it didn't matter she still wasted it because only one person would eat it. I said I had never been here before and she said any time I go into a restaurant I should always tell the host I'm gluten free and then she huffed and hurried off. I was dumbfounded and appalled. I am not sure why I even stayed for the meal.... I wish I had left. First off neither of us asked for bread, it was brought to us automatically after we were seated. Secondly, I don't choose to be gluten free, and a restaurant that boasts being gluten free friendly should not act like it is such an issue and a burden. I've never been told I've "wasted" anything or that I should announce that I am gluten free before sitting down. I was offended and embarrassed. The food was good but that attitude was enough to keep me away for good.
