Peter Havens Restaurant

Sick, sick, sick! All I had was a salad and a filet mignon. Repeatedly told server about need to not have gluten, who supposedly emphasized to chef. They even said one of their coworkers has celiac so they get it. Had to be either in the salad dressing, but I’m pretty sure it had something to do with the steak, given how quickly and severely I was affected. When we told server (nice guy btw), all we got was a “wow…sorry”.

Ruined our anniversary dinner and weekend getaway as I’m still sick. My poor wife planned for weeks, trying to find arrangements for kids, so we could celebrate, as we never get to do things together. Very disappointing.

I have eaten here 4 times and I have never gotten sick and my food has always been cooked perfectly (e.g. steak cooked as requested, veggies tender-crisp). However I have found that my overall experience 1. depends on my server (1 was consistently fantastic, 1 consistent didn’t listen to me and seemed irritated by my questions about what was going to be in my food) and 2. Take this with a grain of salt because I have many food allergens and this may not be the experience of ppl avoiding only gluten but my food was a bit plain. Overall, I categorize this as a restaurant I can go to when a group wants to go out to eat, but it is not one of my favorites.
