Review of Short's Brewing Company

Called prior to making reservations and hostess assured me they were celiac safe And had “lots” of gluten free choices. Arrived at reservation time to be told that my reservation was for 8:45pm not 8:30pm, to which I proved her wrong with my reservation confirmation text. Anyway, sat down, place was ridiculously loud and crowded with several patrons obviously three sheets to the wind. Waitress was obviously irritated when everyone declined alcoholic beverages And only drank water. Asked the waitress if food would be celiac safe to which she had no idea. Went to ask. Came back and said yes we can do that. Already not feeling safe. Brought the gf menu. Went with the nachos. Requested no tomato. Nachos came with tomato. Sent back. They hand picked the tomatoes off and brought it back out…found one of the tomatoes beneath the paper under the nachos. Nice try. Nachos are chips with cheese And boiled chicken. Long story short, would NEVER go back, food was terrible and my son who is also celiac and got the “gf” spinach dip and nachos had explosive diarrhea after eating. Not sure where the 5 star review comes from. This place was not it.
