Our server knew nothing about gluten. She said we could have a burger, but we’d have to leave off the cheese. What??? What about the bun? LOL. The only thing marked on the menu that is gluten free are the pork rinds, an appetizer. The blackened chicken was GF, not sure about anything else.

The staff was not knowledgeable. I was told I could “have a salad or something” and that the burgers were gluten free if I leave off the cheese. I was able to be order the smoked chicken but it was so dry it was hard to eat. The server was nice, but the staff isn’t knowledgeable. Only one item on the menu is actually listed as gf, and it’s an appetizer. I wanted this to be good because the atmosphere is nice, and great live music, but I would not recommend if you are looking for a good and safe gf meal.

I don’t know if we were there on an off day or our waitress was new, but the staff definitely did not seem knowledgeable. When I asked about their gf options I was told that all I could safely eat was “a salad or something”. The waitress then went to check with the kitchen and told me that 2 other dishes were gf, including one that the menu stated was made with beer. Because of that I decided to not take the risk and just get the salad. The salad part of the salad wasn’t super great, it was basically just lettuce but the chicken on it was really good and I did not end up sick. It seems like you can make this place work in a pinch, but you won’t get a lot of options.

Staff seemed very knowledgeable. Service was a little slow, but the food was fantastic! I thoroughly enjoyed the semi boneless 1/2 smoked chicken with a sage, wild mushroom cream sauce. I would definitely go back.
