Review


I let the waitress know I was gf and she had a chef come to my table to take my order. He asked, “What are you looking at and I’ll tell you how we can make it gluten free.” I ordered the queso, Shrimp Alfredo, and Cherry Limeade. The chef suggested potato chips as a substitute to tortilla chips to avoid cc. I’m intolerant/sensitive so cc doesn’t affect me as severely. I was not affected by the tortilla chips at all. The shrimp Alfredo came with gf pasta and the chef explained that he could make Alfredo sauce with cream, butter, and cheese, fully omitting any flour. He asked if that sounded good to me. I really appreciated how they asked if things sounded good rather than staying that something was just going to be this way or that. I felt very understood and safe. I wanted the dessert but was completely full by the meal I already had. To finish off, the Cherry limeade came in a special souvenir cup. I figured it would be expensive and only come with the single serving, but I was surprised to get multiple refills included in the $9 price! Also to note, someone from the kitchen brought my food out separately from my boyfriend’s order, which was definitely not gf, adding to me being more impressed with their precaution and attention to my needs.
