Review of White Dog Cafe

The issue is that the allergen menu only denotes what foods already have the thing you are avoiding. There is no indication on the menu of what COULD be made safe. Instead they expect the wait staff to memorize it (which they can’t), then you get told (as I was twice) to just pick something and they will ask the chef. It’s very uncomfortable and not at all instilling confidence that you can eat safely, unless of course you choose from the insanely limited options for things that are default gluten free. I even tried to talk to them about it because they are clearly making an effort, just missing the mark. They did speak to me on it but were unwilling to really consider the perspective of the person trying to order from this menu. Sad, because the food and atmosphere are wonderful. I should mention there are more “by default” gf options on the lunch/dinner menus.
