Overall Rating

Review


I was hopeful based on the other reviews but we did not have a good experience at this establishment. We came in off peak hours, prepared to ask questions. The server was extremely young and inexperienced. She was not able to clearly call out what menu items were gluten free on the menu. When we got up to leave because they didn't seem able to accommodate us, suddenly she said that all the vegetarian items were gluten free. I thought there might be a language barrier issue so we stayed based on the other reviews. Me and my family (two celiacs) ordered according to what she suggested and both got ill. I think they misrepresented the menu to us and should have let us go elsewhere rather than giving bad information. Instead, they lied to us. I would give this place zero stars if it was possible.
