Review of River's Bend

Went with my extended family for brunch. Spoke to the waitress and informed her that I have a gluten and wheat allergy. I asked what was safe for me to eat and she went and talked to the chef. She came back and rattled off eggs, bacon, veggies and fruit. So I took a gluten-ease right off the bat (because I know that cross contamination can happen when you are not cooking for yourself) and made sure to stick to what she told me. The fruit and salad/fresh veggies were on the same bar. All items like croutons, were completely outside of it in a bowl on a counter so I thought I was safe. Needless to say, I ended up getting sick before we were even done eating. If it is just cross contamination, usually I am fine with the gluten-ease. Clearly there was gluten in an item I was told to be safe because I never react that fast unless I have eaten full on gluten/wheat. I definitely will not be returning.
