Gluten Intolerant

Was honestly a little disappointed with this place. The food was good, but the options for GF are limited to the egg options, and I ended up having a minimal reaction. The “GF” French toast is dipped in the same batter as other toast, but the waitress warned me about it. The staff seemed knowledgeable and were very nice. I had the High Tide Scramble and potatoes. Had a small reaction, not sure from what, but it was mostly okay.

Eaten here for pickup numerous times and have not gotten sick from their scrambles. Tasty and big servings, but pricey!

I went here for breakfast and my server was super knowledgeable about what could be substituted safely, and what was naturally GF. When I went to order eggs benedict, she caught me and said their hollandaise could be slightly cross contaminated so they definitely know their ingredients! I had GF french toast and it was great, and I’m celiac and had no reaction as of a day later!

I had the French omelette with hash browns and it was amazing! Eggs were so fluffy and well cooked. The staff was very knowledgeable about allergies and well accommodating.

Excellent food in a new restaurant with great ambiance. The omelettes are especially good. They are whipped, then baked, making them more like a soufflé. The best omelette I’ve ever had in a restaurant. It would be 5 Stars, but my house fries were very over-fried.

Excellent restaurant!! They have GF bread which I tried as French Toast, which was too thin to be very filling.
