Staff was friendly. Pablo is the BEST! The risotto with short ribs was amazing! All beer is gluten reduced (not gluten free). Gluten free items are marked on the menu.

Not much was labeled GF on the menu but they’re able to make most dinner entrees GF if you ask. I had the salmon and my husband had the steak frites. We share the Apple, walnut, and blue cheese salad.

I’m also lactose intolerant and had trouble getting a dish that was both GF and dairy free. I did ultimately get something that I was assured was GF, but I didn’t feel great afterwards so am not convinced.

Fabulous food. Dedicated fryer for the sweet potato fries. Staff were knowledgeable on gluten intolerance. We were told the beers go through a process that reduce the gluten. Did not chance it with the beers, but had a wonderful meal with no issues.

Not a ton of GF options on the menu but the few they have are very tasty! I feel confident eating here with celiac - staff is very knowledgeable and will alter kitchen about allergies/celiac.

Super friendly staff from greeter to server to cook. Willing to make it as ordered. Fryer not dedicated but most items labeled gf were fully gf. Chopped salad was excellent (I left out the bleu cheese).

I mentioned to the server that I had celiac and he immediately assured me he would inform the chef to be careful. I had a delicious plate of chilaquiles and no symptoms afterward. My only complaint is that that was one of only 2 or 3 gf things on the menu, and I’d love it if they would expand their offerings. The mulled wine is also very delicious and ditto on no reactions.

The staff is very nice and as accommodating as they can given the limited menu. Only two gluten free options on the menu with a few items that can be modified. They used to have more options, particularly for brunch. Breakfast potatoes are all deep fried in non-dedicated fryer. The manager said it is particularly difficult to have GF options for breakfast, which is strange as most egg dishes can easily be made GF.There's better GF options in the area. If you are Celiac or allergic, go here only if you must.
