Symptomatic Celiac

Overall Rating

Review


*symptomatic celiac* The staff was so awesome and my waitress Renee actually had celiac as well and had many recommendations and explained that I will be safe. I had the GF French toast and it was so amazing and delicious I ate the entire giant plate of it. I have been feeling good ever since! 10/10 recommend.

Symptomatic Celiac

Overall Rating

Review


Horrible experience. The server was extremely knowledgeable. The cooks were not and did not care. The server noticed a normal biscuit on my plate and explained that I had celiac and that it needed to be remade. He said well I’m not. He proceeded to yell and scream at her. It’s not a safe place to eat for people with allergies.

There's a separate GF menu and a few other specialties. I had the egg, bacon sandwich and it was great.

They have a dedicated separate menu, it can be found online and is pretty extensive especially for breakfast. Their English muffins are good. Menu must be fairly new since the most recent reviews do not mention it.

Only 4 stars cause the waitressed did not seem to want to help me figure out what was gluten free since no GF menus. She did say they had GF bread, so I played it safe with the meat omelet (3 little pigs...I think) grits and the gf toast and was fine. Food was good. Probably not a good place for celiacs.

They don’t have a real menu to help you. And they don’t always have bread. Pretty much is order what u think will work. They say the Costarrican but I’m pretty sure there rice is not gluten-free.

The hostess said they do not offer gluten free options. Since we had waited an hour and a half for a table, I was planning to sit with my family and not eat. The waitress was able to get an omelet and fruit for me and mention the gluten intolerance to the kitchen. I didn't get sick but would not recommend this place if you are celiac.

Wait staff is aware of GF options. Options are limited, but include the Costa Rican without the fried plantains. Staff says the grits are GF too. Eggs and bacon good.

My son had GF French Toast and I had the Cochon Eggs with GF toast. We both had grits on the side. Very tasty and no reactions. We both have celiac. Would eat there again

My waiter was great. Able to help me identify what was gluten free on the menu. There is nothing marked as gluten free. Omelettes are usually a safe bet at places like this. Just let them know of a gluten allergy and they can mark it in their system which will take out things with gluten in it.

Decent breakfast/brunch place. Separate GF menu with more than typical options, waiter checked in with manager. Meal came out with a little flag toothpick. I ordered French toast, which was good.

The menu is not labeled and they have GF bread and can make French toast, eggs Benedict. They were very mindful of my GF need and prepared everything special to minimize cross contamination. They did not toast my bread or cook my food on the spared grill. I got an omelette, chicken sausage, fruit, and toast. It was good.

I experienced cross contamination with this restaurant even after being reassured they take it very seriously. They used regular bread on my sandwich even though I specifically said gluten free because having celiac. I don’t think the waitress understood. Definitely don’t recommend.
