I came here based on on other reviews, but they were unfortunately misleading. No gluten free bun or bread for sandwiches as others mentioned, and I got pretty bad stomach cramping after being assured my food would be prepared safely.

Went for brunch and had a great experience. Staff was knowledgeable and answered all of my questions with confidence. I went with a friend and we got bottomless mimosas! There are a lot of gluten free options. They can make the hash browns and bacon gluten free. I felt safe eating here.

Had the nachos. The bartender had a gluten allergy so was able to advise on what was safe to eat. Good food! Get the 1/2 order of nachos though, it’s still a lot of food.

Had a very bad experience here. From all the reviews though it would be ok. Ended up being very sick. Not sure from cross contact or ingredients. Will not be going back.

Celiac friendly. We’ve eaten here a lot...and it is always safe, great food, and great selection. They don’t have gluten-free buns for burgers so we usually bring one.

Had great experiences in past & used to love this restaurant but most recently (may 2017) had horrible experience. Told server I was gluten free several times & received salad that ended up having croutons mixed in only after eating a few bites. I told the server & she asked if I had even ordered gf. She didn't apologize, didn't comp the meal or even send a manager over. When we received the check we didn't tip for this sole reason. Later my credit card statement reflected she had given herself a tip. We emailed the restaurant & have gotten no response. Such a shame when I had such good experiences in past but will not return & others with allergies should not either.

Delicious food. Extensive GF menu. Waitress was also GF so she helped to ensure my daughter had a safe meal - chips with guacamole and a GF bunless burger with fries. We will definitely recommend and return here.

Very knowledgable about gf and cross contamination. Great service too. Dedicated fryer and even noted "gluten free" for the French Fries when they were brought to the table which made me feel extra safe. Tasty wine list. Not a ton of vegetarian options but still delicious.

This place was great! Had realllllly good tacos, but also had a great variety of food! Was a little more expensive, but the service and atmosphere was great for a night out. Our waiter even brought us a complementary dessert because it was out first time there (would normally do the carrot cake that they're known for, but knew I was GF so brought us sorbet). They also had great alternative music playing! Loved this place!

Extremely knowledgable about cross-contamination, and their fries are prepared in a separate fryer - very important. They also have gf soy sauce for the wonderful sushi. Our server had a lot of recommendations and took me seriously. I thoroughly enjoyed the fish tacos!

My husband, who is not gluten free, also enjoyed his meal.

Amazing chicken nachos! Thin, crispy chips, a ton of toppings, and a big enough portion for 2!

Went here while visiting Chicago. Great menu and food, conscientious staff. The tacos were inventive and SO tasty! Had fries and felt perfectly fine - they have to do them without their seasoning, so make sure to clarify. Would definitely go back.
