Great brunch experience. Large portions and clear GF markings. I ordered Bloody Mary, chilaquiles and tomato soup - everything was delicious (esp the soup) and no stomach issues after. Recommend!

Overall the worst objective dining experience I’ve had in years. My partner and I wished we had stayed home to cook. Servers were kind but understaffed so a lot was missed. I had intentially avoided an outside reservation but was still seated outside with an apology on a very cold night. We then had to politely ask to move tables because the above table heat lamp was broken. Drinks never came. Meal very lackluster, definitely not worth the price. Separately, I’m celiac and though I ordered something that was listed as gluten free I have been sick from probable contamination. Would not recommend eating here and will not ever return.

Gf items are marked on the menu. We sat at the bar and the bartender was not very friendly and not open to having questions asked. So, I just went with the beet salad. The cocktails were very good!

Very knowledgeable staff, but also very limited GF options. They do carry a lovely GF bread so you won't have to feel left out when here with friends.(On the other hand, they have fabulous cocktails and a pretty little wine list.)
