Review


Bad service, bad food, long waits, cross contamination, and lack of proper allergen policies. We had reservations on the night of the NBA finals. When we arrived they made us wait 15 minutes for our reserved table. Once we sat we again waited another half an hour to be greeted by our waitress. Granted this was after my boyfriend went up to the hostess stand and asked if we had been assigned a server. About five minutes later our waitress greeted us. We placed our order as soon as she came to the table. We ordered gf chicken tenders, gf fried pickles, and gf mac and cheese. The fries came cold so we kindly asked that they bring warm fries. When the fries came back they were not marked gf so this may been cross contaminated. However, after leaving the restaurant I was immediately running to the restroom. Under the impression the gluten was in l the fries I had tried to eat the mac and cheese left overs the same occurred where I was running to the bathroom. Upon further investigation it looked as though there were black beans and green peppers in the dish which may be proof of contamination. Do not go here if you are sensitive at all.
