We have not been in awhile, and first time without the kids. My wife is gluten intolerant. They have a GF service certification on the door. Not sure what that means, but I can say this is the most GF conscious menu we have ever sseen. Everything detailed for what is safe and not. My wife does not recall having gf bread dippers last time. We were very comfortable with server knowledge. The food was delicious, great experience. Actually the cost was pretty good for an upscale experience.

Note for GF. There are only a few items not GF and they can all be substituted or modified incl dippers. We just did 100%gf for the two of us, so that way there is no opty for accidetntal cross contamination at your table. I am not gf and found the whole meal excellent with gf options. That would be on you and your party, not the restaurant. Even moreso if you have a big group. The worse fear that some have is gf bread. But you are smothering it in cheese, rally no issue and tastes great as a dipper.

One shortfall is that we were doing entirely gf for the two of us, but server still brought out teriyaki sauce and was good to inform us that was only gluten sauce, but she should have kept that one in the kitchen. I did give the teriyaki a try since it was there, and did not care for it. Again, stick to the gf options, and your party will be just fine. If they are clamoring for gluten because they somehow feel slighted, there is plenty of wheat based beers they can enjoy, and the crew is all the better for it, not risking being glutened and friendships. : - )
