I've been twice, both times the food was raw and bland. Once they legitimately served me wheat pasta and I looked at it and told them it wasn't GF. They changed it out of course and apologized, but it shouldn't have happened.

Amazing!! They are super on top of gluten free - they have a really extensive separate menu, and actual bread and dipping sauce! The waitress was incredibly accommodating and great at service. The Mac and cheese and carrot cake were especially good. Definitely will return.

I went to the one in Needham, MA. They have this amazing warm GF roll with carmelized onions baked on top (it reminded me of a biali). It was amazing. They gave me one to eat while waiting for my food and my chicken sandwich was served on one as well. It was delicious!! Although they should offer a separate plate of dipping oil and garlic. I shared the same one that my husband dipped into w his bread thinking I was staying on my side of the plate. Not good, dumb on my part for not asking. The wait staff are not allowed to bring any GF dishes to the table, so there is no cross contamination or mistakes. The chef brings it. Great place. Great service.

Great experience here. Staff was super knowledgeable and asked about allergies right after seating us. Waitress got me a gluten free menu after I told them about being Celiac. Waitress also knew I couldn't have fries because of cross contamination. I got the mustard crusted BLT. It was definitely safe and gluten free. Tasted fine, not amazing. Green beans as a side were so good though. The menu had a ton of other options. Everything is pretty pricey, but it was nice to know I could eat my meal safely! Would definitely go back and try something else.

Server was careful about gf. Mustard crusted chicken sandwich was okay, but the gluten free rolls for appetizer and with the sandwich were the best I’ve ever had!

I always have a great experience here they are always on top of it with allergies asking upon everyone ordering. As soon as I made them aware of my allergy they brought AMAZING GF bread rolls with separate dipping oil and a gluten free menu. The GF menu has lots of options. Personally I get the kids GF Mac and cheese and it comes in an adult portion absolutely perfect !

I ordered gluten free pasta and was given the regular gluten pasta. They told me about their error after I ate my meal.

And of course now I am horribly sick. Please do not go here - you can’t trust them.
