Three celiacs at my table. My daughter ordered the gluten free tuna. Came served with a wheat gnocchi in it. A single one! My daughter removed it and told the server. Server said she was sure it was fine seeing as how it was in the dish. My daughter said the gnocchi was in the regular menu dish not the gluten free. She returns 10 minutes later only to tell us what we already know. It's gluten. No replacement of the dish offered. We figured out this morning that they have to be using the same water for gluten free pasta that they are using for regular pasta. A little too late because they brought me a small dish of the pasta veggies and sauce and I am currently very sick and have definitely been glutened. I order a scallop dish off the regular menu minus the rice cake she says has bread crumbs. She says they will give me extra spinich. My 32$ plate comes out with 4 scallops and maybe 10 green beans. I asked where my spinich was and salad. She says it had something I couldn't eat so the can't serve it. Didn't come out to ask if I would like to change my order. Ended up the scallops were so salty they were inedible. Didn't eat my meal. Their gluten free menu looks great but the fries are cross contaminated and are all over the gf menu but are substituted with veggies. Why put them on? Tell me how you make duck confit poutine with out French fries. My son ordered a steak medium (it was beyond rare) it was suppose to come with fries. It came with about 10 green beans. We left paying for 2 of the 5 meals. Avoid this restaurant at all costs. They poisoned me on my birthday. Special.
