I didn't get that warm and fuzzy feeling here with respect to GF that makes me fully relax. Nothing is marked on the menu, so you have to depend on your server and fortunately, mine was knowledgeable. I chose the pork tacos and they were safe (no reactions) and delicious. I will probably try them again but unlike places that "feel" safe, I'm not fully confident.

I didn’t get sick, but felt unsafe eating here and menu has GF labels that aren’t accurate (fried foods in particular). Server said that the GF menu labels only apply if you get a stomach ache, but if you have a genuine allergy or celiac, fried food and other common places for cross contact aren’t safe. There isn’t a dedicated fryer and there’s a “small kitchen so it’s hard to keep things separate.” I ordered the smoked pork chop entree and it wasn’t good. It tasted overwhelmingly of smoke and the mashed potatoes and veggies were bland.

I eat here frequently and don’t get sick. The staff is knowledgeable and understanding. My favorite item to get here is the GF pizza! They also have GF buns for burgers, and the fried mozzarella is made GF!!! Idk about you but it’s hard for me to find GF mozz sticks/fried mozz anywhere. Gluten free items are marked on the menu so it’s easy to see what we can have. They have live music and that classic American bar food vibe. The atmosphere here is always great especially in summer!

No dedicated fryer, so no safe fried foods, but there were a few options. I had the nachos and a salad (I think it was a southwest style salad). They were okay, but nothing I'd go back for. I didn't get sick though (super sensitive celiac)

Lots of GF options. The fryer is not dedicated GF, but the staff is aware of cross contamination and were able to make substitutions with no trouble. Had a very tasty Cuban sandwich with a nice salad, and the outdoor seating area is very nice!
