Review of The Melrose Grill

This place is an old school steakhouse. Most of the menu is already gluten free and our server immediately gave me a very complete run-down of how things are prepared and the cross-contamination potential - which is apparently quite low in that kitchen. I had a filet (the steak rub they use is GF) with grilled prawns, a baked potato, veggies, and a dinner salad with balsamic vinaigrette. I also had the Empress Aviation cocktail (purple gin, lemon, and Maraschino liqueur). Everything was delicious and I felt great. A hidden gem- non pretentious, very traditional, very good.

Also- Naan N Curry is right up the street and they are also very good and considerate of GF needs!
