Overall Rating

Review


The staff seemed overwhelmed to begin with and that just got worse as we moved from the 4 o'clock hour and into the five as more dinner guests arrived. Took about 15 min for our waiter to talk to us, not to mention the hostess wouldn't put us at a shaded table even though they were available. The online menu and the physical menu didn't match. They do have clearly labeled GF items, but since the menus didn't match and the atmosphere seemed disorganized, I was nervous about ordering due to my Celiac. However, sometimes you gotta take the leap. I asked the waitress about the soy glaze on the Ahi Tina dinner (labeled GF). She said, uh, yeah, if soy sauce isn't usually gluten free, then I wouldn't order that. I asked if she could check with the kitchen. She did and informed me that the meal could be made GF by leaving off all sauces and glazes. She was very friendly but GF clueless. I ordered sans condiments. The coconut rice was actually delicious but the rest was bland since there was absolutely no flavor. I asked for some oil and vinegar and she was so confused. In the end I did end up with slight sickness, probably due to cross contamination. Don't go. It's a mess.
