The food tasted okay, but I was very nervous almost immediately. If I had been alone I would have left. When I asked if the sausage was gluten free, my waitress shrugged and said she didn't know, but she thought it probably was. I asked her to find out and she came back and said it wasn't. Then after putting my order in she said the cooks told her they needed to leave the cheese off if my skillet was going to be gluten free. I was surprised at that and asked her to double check if the cheese actually had gluten or if they were confused with dairy. She came back and said they had them confused. I did not feel safe eating my gluten free pancakes after they seemed to be entirely clueless. I'm not sure if the ownership changed or what, but my experience did not match the positive reviews I read before eating here.

The staff was knowledgeable about their gluten free offerings, and up front about the cross contamination risks. My daughter wanted French toast, and they said the batter was used for all of the orders—even the gluten free. She was obviously disappointed, and our server went to ask the chef if he would make new batter for her gluten free order—He did! Her entree was clearly marked on the receipt as needing to be prepared in a clean environment. Two thumbs up!

Mediocre at best. Staff wasn't very friendly and only a small selection of gluten free food options. I ordered the pancakes and while they are a nice size and quantity, there was nothing exceptional to them.
