Other Characteristics

• Reservations recommended

Lots of gluten free and plant based options. Menu items are marked well. They did not have a gluten free bun but would do a lettuce wrap. They don't have sushi, but they do have a tuna poke bowl. They have a gluten free fryer. I had the Portabello Stack and it was awesome. Also had a flourless chocolate tort, yum!
