I got very sick after eating gluten free pasta here. The waitress assured me that the order was put in for celiac/gluten allergy.

I was super excited to eat here, and was fairly disappointed. The online menu was labeled with GF items, but the menus in person weren’t. Our server was pretty relaxed with my allergy…she just kind of made blanket statements about what was gluten-free and what wasn’t, and when we pressed further we found that certain things absolutely were NOT. She told us one dessert item was GF, and luckily a manager was walking by at the same time and interrupted to say that it wasn’t. Our apps came out with bread (not GF) and my partner’s meal was incorrect. The food was ok, but not as good as I expected. And I definitely didn’t feel as safe as I expected to. I didn’t get sick though, so at the end of the day that’s a plus!

Delicious GF pasta of the day which made me do a double check with the server because I thought I might have been given a regular pasta by mistake! Great patio and great vibe.

Loved the prix fixe menu. 3 courses change every month. My choice was roasted brussel sprouts (nothing special) beef short rib on mashed potatoes ( verrry tasty) they subbed plain green beans for the ones with a non gf sauce and blackberry Merlot sorbet. Lovely meal. My partner had the mushroom soup and it was gf too. They also have gf pasta but I didn’t ask to confirm they don’t share pasta water. Items weren’t all marked on the menu but just ask as they are very knowledgeable and most items are gf.
