Review of Scarlet Kitchen & Bar

I called ahead and talked to staff who assured me all food was made to order and they were happy to accomodate GF with GF standards. This is incorrect. There is not a separate GF menu. However there is one item denoted as GF on dinner menu, Sweedish Meatballs, which were extremely intense in flavor and quantity. They said the only other entree they could do GF was Pork Ossso Bucco. The meat was tasty and tender but the succatash was too much in flavor and quantity. Please note, we are not the stereotypical "Minnesota bland" diners which is why we're surprised at our reaction to the food. For lunch a Champagne Vinegrete and a beet salad was noted as GF. When i asked about the cornmeal dusted walleye the chef said cornmeal was not GF but the walleye could be pan-fried in butter.
