EDITED: Restaurant has closed permanently as a result of the economic downturn during the pandemic.

They have the usual legalese on their menu, which of course they need to cover themselves. But I eat here quite a bit and I’ve never gotten sick. I love their appetizers, especially the deviled eggs and the brussels sprouts chips. They don’t have a ton of entrée options that I like, but it’s enough to keep me coming back. They even have a really good chocolate cake for dessert.

I have celiac and am very sensitive to gluten. I got brain fog right after eating at this restaurant, wasn't able to sleep that night due to stomach issues and have been having fatigue and joint pain for over a week now. The menu and staff pretend to be gluten friendly but are extremely bothered by asking more in-depth questions about their fryer, cross-contamination and such. Also, the beers are "gluten-removed," NOT gluten-free, as the waiters and menu are trying to make you believe. Defentitely a place to avoid for celiacs.

I didn't get sick (but I am not diagnosed celiac), I loved everything I ordered. I wasn't sure I would like this place, the menu isn't super exciting but the quality of food and interesting ingredients was special. They have a separate gluten free menu.

I LOVE their Brussel sprout chips and spicy ahi tuna tower. After many many visits and asking many times, I finally can safely say that the Brussel sprout chips are made in a special fryer but I would specifically ask your server to make sure they are made in the GF fryer/oil. I go there specifically for those two items and couldn't be happier though my kids have ordered other items and loved them as well (we are all GF). I haven't gotten sick here which is a huge plus.

they have a gf menu and I was able to try all of the appetizers available, the bacon wrapped dates were a big hit with our group, but there weren't really any dessert options although they were ok with giving one of our party a bowl of strawberries.

WE MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO AVOID CROSS CONTAMINATION, BUT THAT CANNOT BE GAURANTEED.

I was very impressed with their gluten free menu. We had the bacon wrapped dates with goat cheese and balsamic vinaigrette for appetizer. And for dinner the filet mignon, sour cream and chive mashed potatoes and flavorful sautéed spinach. They have a large selection of gluten free choices. I will definitely be going back!
