The menu options for GF are very clear. That much I VERY appreciated. Staff seemed to be knowledgable and made sure the kitchen knew I was both GF & dairy free; neither by choice.

Here's the rub. I ordered grilled salmon. Normally that comes with some sides, none of which could I have as all of them had dairy in them. Rather than reduce the price, $26, as I could only have the salmon they charged me full price as if I had everything. I was told that was decided by management. I looked at the person running my card and said you charged me $36 (with tax and automatic tip) for 1 piece of salmon. That's the most expensive salmon I've ever had! Yes I can afford it, however, it's a matter of principle. It was almost as if I was getting penalized for NOT being able to eat all of what they offered. For that very reason we will never return!

Lesson here? Be careful if you do go and have other issues as they don't seem to be flexible.

The staff provided gluten free entree options (there were quite a few). They said they’d be able to prepare it separately, etc. I got the shrimp and grits, and did not feel 100% afterwards.

With a menu featuring lots of grilled seafood and steak dishes, most of the entrees are naturally gluten-free. There is also gluten-free bread available upon request.
