A little pricey but DE-licious food. I haven’t had cheese curds in years and these were perfection with a light GF breading. Almost all items can be made GF if they aren’t already.

THIS IS MY FAV GLUTEN FREE PLACE!!!! 95% of the menu is 100% gluten free. The bread is AMAZING, all apps are amazing. They are 100% safe in the kitchen. Someone in the owners family has celiac. I have eaten here for years and have not once ever had an issue. Dedicated fryers and nothing they fry has flour. Come here if you have celiac 10000% you will be so satisfied.

Great T experience eating lunch today! Two of the four in our party have celiac. Server was incredibly kind and extremely careful when handling our order. We made sure to tell her about needing gluten free and she made sure cross- contamination measures were taken. Great experience.

The best food that I’ve had since being diagnosed. Run, don’t walk.

I live about thirty miles away, but I’m coming back as often as I can.

Outstanding restaurant from start to finish. Cocktails were innovative, entrees were delicious and of the freshest quality. Nearly everything on the menu was either gluten free or could be made gluten free. Service was friendly and sensitive, and Alexia the bartender was charming and skilled.

Dedicated fryer. Don’t miss this place!

Ate here a few times and have been glutened twice. One of these I didn't notify our server that I was Celiac, so that's on me. The most recent time I did say Celiac and our server flagged for the kitchen but still got sick. Shame, as the fried cheese curds are quite good!

Wide variety of gluten free, we had a difficult time with ordering some items gluten free / some not. Everything that was supposed to come out GF came out with bread. Need to really clarify gluten free when you order. Food was okay, not great

My son and I have Celiacs and have let the waiter know as well as the host. My husband is not GF therefore orders regular. There menu shows items that are GF. We ordered GF French onion soups, sweet cheese with GF bread, GF cheese curds, GF grilled chicken and fries (son), GF steak frites (myself), burger (husband). Halfway through the soup and sweet cheese bread the waiter came by and asked if we wanted those GF instead?!? Umm I have stressed that it needed to be GF!! We immediately stopped eating. Waited 30 minutes to get the correct food. There was a shift change and we had a new waiter, and wanted to make sure the food coming was GF for two of us and not my husbands food. The menu is incorrect, it’s says that the item is GF and not that there is a GF option. Regardless I still mentioned many times our two out of three meals must be gluten free. She checked and made sure it was GF. I couldn’t eat my food as the steak frites sauce was burnt and bitter. The waiter said it looks like the bottom of the barrel as it’s never that dark. She gave my husband his burger but made it GF (even though his wasn’t supposed to be). The fries were horrible. We were forced to pay for the whole bill even though we couldn’t eat half of the food. The appetizers were off of the happy hour menu and they wouldn’t honor the price as that’s what they’re hand held pulled up. We had to pay for the non GF food that they took back as well as charging extra for my husbands bun even though he didn’t want GF. This was an awful experience and will never go back!! They filled the water cups of the other tables but never came to ours. We had to ask for water and still wait 20 minutes. We didn’t even make it out of the parking lot before we were looking for bathrooms. Also, we did not have a reservation but it was after lunch time and all of the tables were empty. We requested a booth for my 5 year old and the host seemed disgusted and said they were reserved. We were there for an hour and a half and only two other tables filled but the booths remained empty the whole time.

My husband and I chose to try Everett Farms for a rare date night. The cheese curds were fantastic! I got the steak frites and really enjoyed it. He tried the jambalaya, but wasn’t the “biggest fan” because it was too much of a soup for his liking and “not spicy enough” (take this with a grain of salt-what he thinks is spicy and what a normal human thinks is spicy are greatly different). Overall, we really enjoyed the meal (even got dessert!) and our server was fantastic!

This is the second time I have eaten here with great success. Everything is from local farms, just about everything on the menu can be gluten free and it has a dedicated fryer. Items change seasonally and the appetizers can have gf bread and tonight we had tempura fried chicken for an app—so good and I would highly recommend!
