Review


**Get a reservation** Saw reviews, stopped by. Everything on the menu can be or is GF they say with exception of egg roll app and crab cakes. They don’t have a separate fryer, rather they fry each gluten-free meal in a pan with new oil and GF flour. Took a little longer but worth it. With no upcharge. GF fried shrimp, GF buffalo shrimp appetizer (!!), GF calamari, and GF fried flounder were all terrific. A non GF person in our party got shrimp and grits which was GF by default and was amazing. Gourmet chef touches throughout the food. The mashed potatoes were awesome alone. A visit just for mashed potatoes is time well spent. This place cares a lot about food. The cooks know food. Few bumps in the road however, make sure that you specify GF on everything you intend to be GF: the house salad came out with croutons to a GF person but was not ordered as GF. Also a waitress was thinking out loud about whether rice was GF. GF fried shrimp came out with cocktail sauce that didn’t sound (usually is not) GF. The place is a 5, food is amazing. Prices weren’t bad. Massive menu that can be modified. Menu not marked though. They have a GF penne. Ask questions and use usual vigilance and it’s wonderful.

Second trip was also delicious. Be vigilant, this time we specifically made sure to ask for a GF salad and it came with croutons (pic)
