Review


My partner is gluten sensitive and I am gluten avoidant, so no celiacs or high sensitivity.

I found the staff very gluten informed and aware. Many gf options including bakery items.

We both feel the food with the gf options has been excellent. Above the ordinary recipes. I had the pork braised omelette today and my partner had the caprese salad sandwich. We both had the gf bread and found it to be maybe the best gf bread we have had.

Gluten-free bread is inedible, very hard, and cracked into bits. Management staff were condescending and rude about it, way too overpriced for that.

I think things have changed here; the staff does not seem informed about gluten contamination issues or even ingredients. There are not many GF options. I do not consider this place celiac friendly.

GF quesadilla was delicious, but I got sick. 🤢 I ate there just before closing, so maybe the evening chef was less careful.

Menu is more limited than online. Quesadilla is made with gluten free pizza crust and cooked on same pan as gluten items; they will clean the pan in between but no assurance of how well.

Pastries stored in same cabinet; gluten free choices are on shelf at bottom underneath regular items so cross contamination likely. Pity as it would be easy to put them on top. Only two gf pastry items available.

Quite a few gf options on their menu (they use gf bread on any sandwich you want) Staff was knowledgeable about cross contamination. Told us they will make omelette in a separate skillet instead of the grill.
