Review of Hope & Olive

I have been going here for years and love it, but something is getting lost in translation when it comes to accommodating celiac. We ordered the Brussels sprouts and made sure to mention the “gluten allergy” and ask about the fryer. When the sprouts arrived, we double checked that they had come from the gf fryer and they had in fact not. The staff were very apologetic and remade the order in the gf fryer, but I came away feeling like I need to be vigilant at H&O if I want to avoid unsafe food.
