I will definitely eat her again. I had a wonderful meal and they have a GF menu. I explained to our server, Miranda, that I have celiac and have a severe dairy allergy. She talked to the chefs and ensured my meal would be safe to eat. I had no reaction at all to this meal and for me the tiniest amount of gluten sends my heart out rhythm.

The chicken has a lot to of spice but the steak is good. They have a delicious chocolate dessert that is such a treat but so high in calories.

This place was great! I used my NIMA tester and I was impressed. My salad and tangy tomato dressing were GF. My loaded baked potato was also GF. The first steak they made me came back with gluten. However, the manager realized it was the seasoning and sent me home with a new steak that did indeed test GF. Great staff!

They accommodated my gluten and dairy allergies beautifully. They have a separate GF menu. The service was a bit slow but I was impressed the owner came out to check on us when he heard about the allergies. I will definitely go back.

My company wanted to order us a holiday lunch. We order with outback. My food was marked gluten free and put in its own bag. It was a great experience.

I went there for dinner with my boyfriend and explained to our server that i had celiac disease. He came back with a gluten free menu with a variety of options, i felt so comfortable eating there and my dinner was amazing! he explained to me that they take it very seriously and that he will explain to the cooks and write an extra note. It was an 100/10 experience for me.

I was on a trip to Splash Lagoon with family and was very hesitant to eat here as I get sick at one closest to where I live. I ate here with no issues! I got the wedge salad and loaded baked potato. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful!

This place was awful from our walk in to our overall experience! First thing when we got there the hostess told us that they only had one table available by the bar, but when I looked around only a few tables were occupied and mostly by the bar. She went on to instruct us that all the other tables were dirty!! My husband did not want to create a scene so we sat down and decided to order simple and had burgers mine with no bun. I did not get sick from the food or at least not yet but I will never return to this restaurant!! Very sad that the manager didn’t even try or get someone to clean off all those tables including wait staff!
