The food came out with markers of what was gluten free which led me to believe that I would be okay. It all tasted okay but then about 30 min later I started vomiting and was not okay for the rest of the night. I am very sensitive but usually don’t vomit from gluten exposure so either the order was very wrong or it was some kind of food poisoning. Not a pleasant experience.

I always loved coming here since they have so many gluten free options and the staff seems to understand and take it serious.I recently went in and something was just off about my Mac and cheese, definitely different then the last few times I’ve had it. I ate half and let my friend finish. She said it wasn’t any different then her full gluten mac. I wasn’t feeling good by the time the check came and barely made it home before a gluten attack came on. Symptoms were of a full gluten exposure, not just cross contamination.

Their fries are dedicated gluten free and all of their sliders can be made GF as a lettuce wrap. I have ate here ton and no issues.

Ordered and made it clear I had a gluten and dairy allergy. My food came out covered in cheese. Sent it back and not sure if they just scrapped it off or what, but I was vomiting and my esophagus was closing up shortly after eating.

Menu advertises gluten free fries. Waitress told me they were gluten free. I asked multiple times about fryer and whether it was dedicated or not. She finally came back and let us know it’s a shared fryer (she didn’t know what that meant, I had to explain and ask specifically if the oil was used to fry their fried foods AND the fries). Kids were extremely disappointed.

Don’t recommend if you have allergies. I expect the rest of the family to be sick tomorrow. They clearly have no idea of how allergies work.

Taste has some great gluten free options. All of their sliders can be lettuce wrapped. If sensitive, be sure to ask about certain ingredients because I almost ordered the pulled pork but was made aware by the waitress that the meat was marinated in soy sauce! Gluten free pasta is available for the mac n cheese and they bring it out with a small wooden marker in the bowl to indicate it is gf pasta, which is reassuring. Staff is knowledgeable on ingredients in the salads. Unfortunately, their fries are not gf because they are cooked in a shared frier. They also have a gf chocolate flourless torte for dessert! Very good. Never have had a reaction.

They have very few things that fit the bill of GF, they are expensive, and the food itself is not that great. Lots of subtractions and no substitutions. Would not come again.

Chicken and salmon sliders (lettuce wraps)were good. Burger and lamb ones were not. They do not have a dedicated fryer so I could not try the fries. Our waitress was not knowledgeable but at least the other server/manager was.

Great options! Almost anything can be made gf and the servers understand Celiac and will tell you if something (like the earth party) is coated in bread crumbs. It isn't a gf kitchen, but I've never had a reaction and I have a dairy allergy as well.

Arrived as they were opening and spoke to the manager, who spoke to the chef about my need for gluten, dairy, soy, garlic and onion-free. We then did some sight-seeing and came back later. It was very busy when we came back, you place your order at the counter and I was nervous about their ability to get everything right and keep me from being cross-contaminated. But they did. Everything was perfect! The waitress double-checked everything. I ordered a salmon salad that was fantastic. My husband loved his BLT burger with a lettuce wrap. And I love it when there is a dessert I can have. We had a sorbet sampler with 3 flavors: mango-ginger, lemon-thyme and raspberry. I thought lemon-thyme sounded strange, but it was soooooo good!

It's a fun, casual, rustic-chic restaurant. There are large tables indoors and on the covered patio. You find your own place to sit before placing your order, and you sit with other people rather than at your own table. It appears to be a popular lunch hour spot.

I have a very limiting amount of food I can eat (no gluten, grains, legumes, or nightshades). I ordered a lettuce wrap slider and a Cobb salad (with all kinds of accommodations) and I had no gluten reactions and my meal was delicious.

GF version of mac n cheese is they use hominy instead of pasta. It was good, but I probably wouldn't order again. My slider with lettuce instead of a bun was delicious.

Amazing food! I had the quinoa salad - it was to die for! They have GF "Mac" no cheese made with cauliflower if you eat dairy. I do not :( Service was a bit slow during a busy Friday lunch but it was worth the wait. Some of the desserts were probably gluten free but not dairy free, but I was too full anyway!
