Avoid this place if you have gluten sensitivity. Even after being very specific with the waitress about my gluten sensitivity and how I couldn't eat any wheat or flour or it would make me very sick the "grilled chicken" for my salad she brought me appeared to have some kind of coating on it. When I asked her about it she assured me there was nothing on it, that she had watched the chef prepare it herself. I had my husband taste a little of it and he was pretty sure it had flour. The waitress offered to have the chef make me chicken in a separate pan with absolutely nothing else and when it came out it looked OK but I was sick and in serious pain for days afterward. I think they meant well but just didn't understand, even after I took the time to try to explain to the cook in person. I won't risk it again and if you are at all sensitive my recommendation is to avoid this place.
