Review


Went for dinner with my partner expecting to have a lot of options due to previous reviews. The GF menu explicitly states there is not a dedicated gluten free fryer and that the gluten free pizzas are not safe for celiacs due to the flour in the air, so I felt pretty limited as a celiac, even with a GF menu.

I ordered “The Maplewood” salad which had greens, tomatoes, garbanzo beans, kalamata olives, feta, roasted potatoes, onion, a lemon olive oil dressing and a green goddess drizzle (and I added grilled chicken.) To my surprise, it came with a side of gluten free pita! It was so delicious I checked *multiple times* to make sure it was actually safe. I would go back if I was craving this particular salad, but nothing else on the GF menu appealed to me or felt safe.

A small note — our server did not write down our order. She seemed knowledgeable but it really stresses me out when servers do this for folks with dietary restrictions. We need to know you will remember!
