The waitress, Patricia, was awesome and immediately made my son with celiac feel comfortable. The menu was clearly marked and she made a point to less us know she communicated with the kitchen regarding food prep and avoiding cross contamination.

In my opinion, this restaurant was not worth the money. While the menu was nicely labeled with what was GF, they didn’t tell us much about safety nor acknowledge our daughter’s gluten allergy when they set her plate down. That is always a reassurance to me and a fancy restaurant should be able to handle that. There are now many options on 30a. We won’t be doing this one again even though the food tasted good and our daughter didn’t get sick.

Our favorite dining experience on 30a by far. GF menu items clearly marked. A few items (such as the Caesar salad) have a separate symbol indicating they can be altered to be GF, further extending the already expansive GF offerings. Several GF dessert and appetizer items were available. The portions are not overwhelming so don’t be afraid to order an appetizer and main course. A must try!!

Such a great experience! The menu clearly listed what was made gluten free and what could be modified to be gluten free. The food was amazing and they even had gluten free brownies for dessert.

Items are marked gluten free but wow they are very wrong. I got the Caesar salad, which the waiter said was gluten free. Seemed okay. We ordered the s’mores brownie for dinner and I have never been so sick after eating something. Was not worth it.

Ordered royal red shrimp appetizer; marked gf; and chief special, waiter stated he talked with chief to see if special was gluten free stated would just leave off hush puppies. Tested both with Nima sensory and both tested positive for gluten. Sauces on both dishes were thick and fluffy.

Scallops; marked gf; ate 1.5 some stomach upset.

Delicious food and very careful with allergies. My only complaint is, for a place this nice, there was no GF bread option.

Many Gluten free options and knowledgeable staff.
