Our first waiter seemed to have little knowledge about gluten free but I did not get sick. Our second server had great knowledge and they even have a fair amount of GF desserts which is hard to find!

The waitstaff has little to no understanding about what on the menu contains gluten or cross-contamination. I have been badly glutened here more than once. I have had waiters assure me that bisques and au gratin potatoes are gluten free when they are clearly thickened with flour. Most of the menu contains gluten. Now I just eat ahead of time if my family goes here for a mea

Very limited, only wanted to serve me a garden salad with grilled chicken and vinaigrette only. Not willing to work with me or answer questions, poor service. I asked about ingredient labels for salad dressing and other items and was told no. Overall, would not recommend for allergies.

No gf menu. Unsure what is gf. Sauces have gluten. Without them food was undercooked and bland. My daughter also has a dairy allergy. That resulted in no carb whatsoever. Pretty expensive for no customization or taste. Don’t recommend.
