Fireside Cafe

If I could have left a zero star I probably would have. The waiter seemed nice but did not know anything about gluten/gluten free/ cross contamination. Someone else suggested salads as a viable alternative. I got the steak and blue cheese salad with chicken. The salad was not prepared like I wanted and came with little dressing. I got extra dressing and the texture of the salad was very gritty. Slightly resembling sand. It wasn’t worth the 18 dollars I had to pay for it. Rest of my family food was decent. It was ridiculously overpriced including 2 dollars for a piece of bread for my son to munch on so he could take medicine. They even tried to double charge us for my wife’s food. Due to their lack of care and concern for safety I would avoid at all costs. I already experienced glutening symptoms within 45 minutes of leaving.

My waiter was very kind and checked with the kitchen about what was and wasn’t GF. He told me all of their salads were GF. I got the Apple Walnut Salad (minus the blue cheese) and it was great! They also offer a cauliflower pizza crust which is GF and vegan! Unfortunately most options do contain gluten so the possibility of cross contamination is likely high, so just be careful!
